Get 1GB free Dropbox space

rustyzip · 29-01-2015 12:35PM

Yay. Downloaded both apps (and deleted them straight after!) and now have 4 extra GB of space. Got one with first app and then 3gb with carousel

Thanks OP

Worked great after just downloading the app - didn't have to sign in with Gmail to the Mailbox app.

MAJJ · 29-01-2015 02:42PM

Noticed that too and thanks for clarifying.
Thanks to op too as got 1gb from mailbox :-)

For some reason I only got 1GB bonus when installed Carousel

UPDATE, I found the reason:
Note: The Carousel bonus replaces the Camera Upload bonus that was offered with the Dropbox app. If you’ve already received the full bonus space from using Camera Upload, it can’t be credited again. You can check if you’ve received the bonus space in your account settings.

FFS the Carousel app isnt compatible with the OnePlus One either even though it says all the sh1tty Chinese phones Ive ever tried are good to go! Whats going on there?

I got that too on my OnePlus, the playstore said both apps were not compatible, however I just installed them both through the Aptoide app instead and got the 4 extra Gigs, thanks OP and whoever mentioned Carousel. Deleting them now of course! I also have that 48 Gigs bonus from installing Dropbox on the other half's Samsung but that will expire in 12 months, so not counting on that for anything.

Someone on the OPO owners thread told me if you've adjusted the DPI to fit more icons on screen then it can cause this issue with random apps. I sideloaded the apks, got the bonuses and uninstalled again no problems.

I saw that thanks, I have indeed adjusted the DPI to fit more icons so that's probably it. Personally I'd be wary of sideloading apps from torrents etc. when they're easier accessible and verified through Aptoide. I have three app stores on my phone, the other being Amazon just for all the free apps they keep giving away.

Thargor · 29-01-2015 03:37PM

Aptoide looks like the way to go in future thanks.

I think there's plenty of sites where if you enter the Google Play url of an app they'll grab the APK from it for you. As Blade said you don't know what's been done to them when you get them off a torrent site.

Squeeonline · 29-01-2015 03:51PM

Thanks OP. Already had the carousel bonus and I didnt realise. Over 20gb now.

JohnMearsheimer · 29-01-2015 04:21PM

I downloaded Carousel there and got 3GB for it. I'm up to 8 GB now.

TheDriver · 29-01-2015 07:38PM

I didn't need to enter any number. Now have another 4gb on dropbox. Any other good ways to bump up permanent storage??

Gumbo · 29-01-2015 10:21PM

Thanks OP, got my 1GB for this but got nothing for Carousel.

29-01-2015 10:24PM

Same here mate...got nothing for Carousel although it's possible I raped it previously and have forgotten.

Joined this yesterday and today I received a text message from a foreign number with a link to a photo. Deleted the text as it looked dodgy..... Coincidence or did it happen to anyone else too?

Yep I got one too, apparently I have won 1000 dunnes vouchers. Odd thing I didn't enter my phone number unless the app did.

Can you delete these apps and retain the free space on your account ?

not quite free, but, if you haven't already maxed out your referrals you can find people on eBay who will do it for you for anywhere between $3 & $10. I have done it with my own account, several family members and recommended it to a few friends who all seemed to get on fine. Don't ask me how they do it but within 24 hours my referrals were maxed out. that was over a year ago and all the extra space is still there.

Gits_bone · 01-02-2015 04:54PM

I somehow got 48gb free there by going here. Not sure how I got it!

Nope it was showing up straight away!
Also a few little more ways of increasing space a tiny bit.
