When the One X came out there was a promotion where you would receive 23gb for two years on dropbox if you signed on from a One X. According to this HTC is running the sam promotion again on the One X+.
I am on the AT&T version of the phone and tried signing on to dropbox from my phone, but to no avail. The extra storage was not added on. Any suggestions? Am Is it a problem on my end? Or does the promotion just not apply for the AT&T version?

According to dropbox, the promotion is valid for the new or exist accounts but didn't associated to another htc sense device from before.
I had the same problem, i had a dropbox account which was associated with my previous device (htc sensation), so when i connected it with this phone i didn't received the 23gb promotion over my account, so after some search i found that i couldn't had this promotion, so i connected the phone with another account that i had before and it didn't associated with any phone, and directly i received the extra memory

That's not true... In April 2012 I've bought a HTC One X and got my 23GB of storage...
In november 2012 I've bought my HTC One X+ and got 23GB of storage again (for two years)
But I haven't got it automatically so I've email the Dropbox-support for giving me manually 23GB's of storage, no problemo!

Go to dropbox.com/gs on your computer. Sign in and it should give you the space. If that doesn't work then make your way through the contact us part of the website and follow the links as if you were going to email them about the issue and it will be explained how to do it. Sorry don't remember all the steps but it wasn't hard at all.

This page on Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/help/249/en) makes it look like AT&T and Verizon opted out of the promotion. Are AT&T customers getting this free space? If so, how?
Yes I'm on AT&T and got it this morning. Just keep following the links about it and you'll get there. But all you should have to do is go to www.dropbox.com/gs and sign in.
Or follow the "get free space" links.

Still not working. If I follow the links it eventually brings me to that page I linked to before that says it's not available for AT&T (or Verizon). Can you recreate your exact steps?
I will do that and post how exactly what I did. However it will have to be later as I'm not with my netbook at the moment.

I went to try and retrace my steps and see now where it says AT&T and Verizon opted out of that. But I swear I got it this morning and I'm on AT&T. I do t remember exactly how I did it. Try doing it through the dropbox app on your phone. See what happens. I just remember it told me to go to www.dropbox.com/gs and I instantly got two emails. One saying I got 23 gigs for sense 4 and 3 additional gigs for sense 3.5 or higher.

That's weird, still not working for me. I'm hesitant to submit a request because they'll just tell me I'm not eligible on AT&T, and I don't want to ruin it for anyone else if there's some glitch.
Oh well, I got like 15 extra GB through my association with an .edu email address, so it's not the end of the world or anything. But if anyone has other ideas then let me know.
create an account on your phone. I just did it and i got an email 5 seconds later saying " claim your 23 gigs"

Yeah but the point is I'd like it on my already existing account.
I bought my One X+ a little over a week ago, and just now got the email about the 2 year storage this morning
I haven't gotten anything from dropbox...
I am AT&T and I tried using the apk from the "missing after bootloader unlock" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997511&page=2) thread and no luck with email or extra space.
I'm on AT&T as well, and I tried setting up a new account, but, no luck so far.
Although, I didn't really try too hard, because I figure 2.5gb is enough for the time being. Otherwise I might get all comfy with my 25GB and then BAM, the 2 years is over and it's time to move out or pay up, lol.
That is how I rationalize it at least, hehe. I also wasn't aware it was a 'Sense' thing. I signed up on a custom rom which was 'De-Sensified', so that might be why I missed the offer.
Remarkably, 4.5 months after getting my HOX+ on AT&T, I just received an email from Dropbox this weekend telling me about my extra 23 GB:
"Hi Adam,
Congrats on becoming a Dropbox Guru! We've awarded you 23 GB of bonus space for the next 24 months. You now have 43.5 GB on Dropbox. To get even more space, check out our upgrade options.
Thanks again for supercharging your HTC device with Dropbox!
Enjoy,
- The Dropbox Team"
I wish I knew what I did this weekend to prompt this, but it seems to have magically appeared! FWIW, I'm running Elegancia 4.8.0.

Has anyone here ever successfully received a rebate from Tmobile?
The reason I'm asking is because I did a little google searching earlier
and came across several sites and blogs complaining about how
Tmobile never honored their rebate and that "Young America" which
is the corporation that handles the rebate basically screws everyone
out of the money that is entitled to them.
They either say the rebate form was incorrectly filled out or that
somewhere, somehow you didn't mean the eligibility criteria set forth in the
rebate form.
I'm worried now that I will never see my rebate that was promised me
even thought the Tmobile rep filled out the form himself and highlighted
and made copies of everything for me.
Help me bring my stress level down by reassuring me about how you've
gotten a rebate back before.
I need someone to hold my hand...bad.
(If I don't get mine there's 3 others behind me that might not get theirs either.)
iirc there's a site along the lines of tmobilerebate.com where you can check the status of the rebate

Yes. I've been checking my rebate status on tmobile.com/rebates but my rebate hasn't been processed yet.
I'm just looking for some members that have received a rebate to calm my nerves.
I'm just looking for reassurance.
I'm a former rep. We used to fill out the rebate forms and have you mail it. We guaranteed that you'll receive it. If the customer fills it out and makes a mistake, that will either delay or deny your rebate. As long as you filled it out correctly, then you are fine.

Yea your ok dude I always tell everyone to make copies of everything so you always have proof you filled it out right I gotten my rebates every single time when I was a customer and i got many phones.

Exactly the same here. Website didn't work but calling worked. I received the one for my Sensation but never got the one for my Touch Pro2. I bought the Amaze through WalMart.com (cheaper than TMobile's price) and am supposed to get a $100 gift card after I've had the phone for 6-8 weeks. The gift card will probably take another 6-8 weeks after that! LOL
Got a text saying it's been processed and wait two weeks.
Hope someone can help with this one.
My GF had to go to an AT&T retail store to preorder her One because the Premiere website wasn't workiing for her. She got the phone, but they didn't ship the Media Link adapter, and I know she ordered well within the promotional period, and that there was still inventory available because of posts made here after her order that confirmed it.
We went to the store and inquired, and they said we had to call customer service, so we did. After a while on the phone with customer service, we were told to go to the store.
It would be helpful if anyone here has a part# or SKU# - and perhaps any advice for us on how to go about next steps, so we can get this done.
Thanks in advance!

Item: HITECH PJ83100 ACCESSORY
Part Number: 41398
AT&T is ostensibly clueless when it comes to the availability of this product. I had one ordered prior to the presale, and one after it was clear the former wasn't coming. After the second didn't come they told me they couldn't even guarantee it would ship at all so they found a local shop that had one in stock and sent me to pick one up there.
And then, so you know, unless you have a tethering plan it'll be a glorified paperweight until an update is released by AT&T (or HTC). It doesn't work.
i never got mine... called at&t and got a 180 bill credit for not getting them. worth it in my opinion
Interesting. I ordered mine on the 16th, in store, and my rep couldn't get the Media Link HD to populate in the cart. So I just figured I wasn't gonna get one, which wasn't a big deal since I wouldn't have really used it anyway.
However, last week I got a random email from AT&T stating it was on its way. They must be fulfilling the backorders on it automatically now.

There is a flashable zip file which makes the unit usable under the AT&T ROM, or you can flash a custom ROM like ARHD which likewise does the problem.

the update was released by htc... it works now without tether or custom rom.
I noticed that mine didn't end up shipping either after a few weeks. I called premier support, and was told that I would need to call general support to update my "rate plan code" in order to be eligible. I had no idea what that meant, but I figured it would somehow involve AT&T trying to screw me into upgrading my call/data plan.
I called general support, and they were clueless of both the promotion and what a "rate plan code" was. Isn't this company just great? However, after an hour and a half on the phone, we finally got everything sorted out. They ended up opening a new order and manually discounting the item.
I finally got it the other day. Now, I just need to find a way to allow the media link to still stream video with the phone screen off, so it doesn't rape my battery life. Anyone have any suggestions? Is there a fix available?

As you guys know the international/dev edition m8 comes with 65gb of free google drive space. I believe the verizon version has it as well.
I didn't get this on my phone (seems like AT&T always cheats us of it) So I decided to chat in with Google Drive support and told them I just got the m8 and I didn't get the 65gb of space for two years promotion. He had me go through the product tour to look for a redeem option. There wasn't one. He then manually added the 65gb to my drive account.

I called HTC earlier today and spoke to someone about it. She asked for my IMEI, and saw I had a M8 on AT&T. She then asked for my name, and email address, and emailed me a link to activate the promotion.
Long story short, maybe just call HTC instead of worrying about dealing with Google. :good:
"If I purchased a used/refurbished HTC device or unlocked the bootloader on my device, can I redeem the offer?
No. The offer is only available to original buyer of a device over its lifetime. Users who unlock the bootloader on their device are not eligible to receive this offer."
Haha lol

I just attempted this. Google Drive support merely referred me to HTC Support. I sent them an email. I will report back if they hook me up. Seems like it depends on the tech support person you get, but Google is probably not the first point of contact.

That worked with almost no hassle. Nice find! I wish the space was permanent (asking too much, I know). I hate getting space that rolls off. I'm afraid to use it, since it's not permanent. I find that I just end up hoarding space that I never use.

Worked for me too!
So here's my story..
I did what everyone else listed in this thread, called Google they told me to contact HTC, did a live chat and the rep sent me a email with the link to redeem 50GB of storage space. After clicking the link it said i already redeem this offer.
So i called HTC CC number and they don't know why it's saying i've already redeem this offer.. They said it could be a Google cap issue or maybe something else. So they asked me for every promotion i've redeem in the past and i told them. The only 50GB i've redeem from HTC was for my HTC One Max.. i'm not sure if this is the same promotion they are sending out. But they took my information and said a tier 2 rep would be contacting me to resolve this issue
Wow, thanks. It worked and I don't even own an HTC one m8. I chatted with HTC online c.s and it took like 1 min. She sent the redeem link to my email and I was able to activate.

2 years ago I had an S3 and used its 50gb Dropbox promo to add 48gb to a preexisting account. Can the same account be used to take advantage of the S5 50gb Dropbox promo to add onto or renew the original S3 50gb Dropbox Promo?
I haven't been able to get any of my new Samsung devices to renew the Dropbox promo, but them again, my original one hasn't expired just yet.

I did get the promo for the S4 a second time on another account though when I handed it down to someone else to use as an upgraded phone, so that was cool.

Yeah I created a new account and used a shared folder to migrate my data from my old account into my new account. It was super fast, just move your files from your old account into your shared folder and copy them out on the other end through your new account ^.^
I claimed the 50GB (48GB bonus) Dropbox promo on my rooted AT&T with T-Mobile's Dropbox OOBE last year. When I got the S5, I tried to do the same with the S5, and discovered that the expiration date did not change/increment. I investigated, and found this:
https://www.dropbox.com/help/297/en
The first Dropbox account that signs in to the app on the device will get 48 GB of free space (assuming the other conditions are met). Each account is only able to claim this promotion once.
Click to expand...

I recently exchanged my S5 for another through warranty (long story, don't ask), and on the new handset, I just signed in with my wife's account, granting her the extra 48GB for 2 years. Works for me, because we share a lot of files back and forth using DB. I then removed her account from my device, wiped the cache/data for the dropbox app, and then signed back in with mine. She still has the extra 48GB, and I've got my account back on my device.
I'd like to point out a nice bonus to the whole situation. In the above link, read the Terms near the bottom. Specifically the good part:
When the 2-year promotion period ends, the 48 GB of promotional space added to the user's Dropbox service will be automatically removed. An additional 3 GB of storage space will be added to the account.

I'm okay with a permanent 3GB increase, how about everyone else? I'm currently at 61.63GB, but I'll be at 16.63 when the promotion runs out next year. Coupling that with Google Drive's free 15GB (also has a decent PC app), I currently have enough room (31GB permanent so far) to hold every irreplaceable document/picture/file on my computers in the cloud - synced, and for free.
Really, there isn't a way to renew the 48GB on the same Dropbox account?? That's not nice at all!

Who ever told you that was misinformed. I've had the promo since the S3, and recently my dropbox had expired and dropped down to the usual 5gb when I did all the bonus stuff to gain the extra space. I got the S4, Note 2, as well as the Note 3 during the time, and was told that the promo cannot be stacked. When I logged into my dropbox account when I got the S5 2 weeks ago, I got a notification that my dropbox had been upgraded again to 52gb now. So you will have to wait until it expires, then you can use the same account to gain the extra space.
Now I have 56.5GB on my account!

Thank you for the post, nobody told me that, I read it in this thread, above my earlier post. But that's very nice to know that I can really renew the 48gb, that way I can maintain my files on dropbox.

I've tried that after my promo expired and no dice. I even tried with multiple devices that were never dropbox activated (but valid for the promo).
But when I logged in with a new account (even in my months old Note 3, which had been heavily used in my old dropbox account) it did award me the bonus.
Well I guess I will have to move accounts (and I had 12GB from other promos and stuff). Can't complain. And I guess in two years time, they will be giving much more than that for free.
anyone tried to increase his Samsung Dropbox account with the HTC promotion ?

2 years ago I had an S3 and used its 50gb Dropbox promo to add 48gb to a preexisting account. Can the same account be used to take advantage of the S5 50gb Dropbox promo to add onto or renew the original S3 50gb Dropbox Promo?

I've pasted the part of the rules/regulations that answer your question below this comment: I've set in bold the part I think you should focus on.
The first Dropbox account that signs in to the app on the device will get 48 GB of free space (assuming the other conditions are met). Each account is only able to claim this promotion once.
