Anyone notice Dropbox isn't working properly? - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

I've been using Dropbox for a number of years now and 1 great function is to have dropbox back up your photos. I understand other apps do the same thing but I don't really want to transfer 1000000 photos to a different account.
Anyway when I sign into dropbox, it tends to stall on the sign in page. Multitasking out of the app and then going back in gets rid of the sign in page but I'm unable to upload photos and I can't access any other files either.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so, how did you solve it?

If Steam on Windows isn't working, is it Windows' fault or Steam? This is most certainly a bug in Dropbox, so go ahead and report it to the Dropbox team.

Working fine on my C6833.
Try reinstalling the app?

Got Dropbox uploading my pictures and also synching my Agile Bits "1password" app with my desktop.
Working fine for me too.

Hmm now I feel completely stupid. I've tried reinstalling Dropbox, tried clearing the data but still can't log on properly.
The only thing I haven't done is factory resetting my Z Ultra and I'm loath to do that because everything else is working fine. Thanks for your replies guys

That's very strange. I have no idea what it may be, but i'll be surprised if it's a system bug and not a Dropbox bug.

Did you tried it already with an other account?

interesting. i hadn't heard of this issue before but a quick google search lead me to this thread which has a seemingly logical solution/directions: Music Beta by Google: A Must Read For All Root Users!. i haven't tested it personally but it seems very feasible.
to summarize the answer from the post linked above:
Just log into the desktop version of Music Beta by clicking here, go into settings, and then you'll see a place to manage your devices. Just remove the multiple device entries from the list, and then... presto!

i'll have to check my own account for this as i would imagine any android user who wipes their /data often when switching ROMs might run into this issue.
hope the solution I linked to helps!
Thanks man. I'm goin to try now.
Edit: Worked great, thanks again

Thanks but it does not seem uploading video well.
I am still having the same problem. MOTO tech suggests to hard reset the phone. Before I do this, I would like to know if others have the same problem uploading video to picasa over wifi. Thanks.
Just tried PicasaVidUp lite from the market
Worked great.
Have you tried a different WiFi connection a free hot spot.
Thanks. The app seems do the trick with no error.

Gallery problem in CM10

Hey guys, I'm having issues with the gallery in epinter's CM10 rom. I've done some searching and it seems like other people's is working but everytime i open it up it shows no pictures. I've cleared its settings and cache but it still shows nothing. The only reason this bothers me is because it appears that Google+ won't instant upload pictures unless they show up in there. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm using the 8-11 release but it gave me the same issues in the release before that. Also, I'm using internal storage with no sd card if that matters.

Just download quickpic.
I've been using quickpic for several months now, but Google+ uses the gallery app (from what i can tell) to share pictures and detect new pictures for instant upload.

I'm having same issue. Also no music. Tried moving files to external and back, format both cards. Nothing I've tried has worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
MB860 Peace
I have this occasionally, but don't use G+ so it doesn't really bother me as quickpic always works. But to help with the question, I thought I read that when the Media Service is running, things like the Gallery, Maps, and a few other google apps (that use the service) might act like they're hanging, but it's because one of them is using the service. You could try force closing it, or let it finish on its own. Also, try clearing the cache on the media service/gallery/camera/maps. On occasion when the camera stops working on me if I kill the service it sometimes then starts working. This might not be the best option, but something to try.
im having the same problem... apollo dont recognize any music someone can help?
Well my camera has always been laggy on all 4.0+ roms even though some people say it works for them. Anyways, I tried clearing the data and reseting maps/gallery/camera but it still doesn't work. I'm wondering if the media service is actually just borked and I've been misinterpreting what other people have said.

Look for and delete a file named .nomedia from the base of which ever card you have these images or music on. I heard that this was something a ROM Manager update did.

I had the same issues with my pics and music. Looks like you've chosen reboot option from power off menu. For some reason after reboot pics and audio can't be recognized. Try to power off your atrix and trurn it on after few sec, this worked for me, hope will help you too.
Didn't work. Thanks anyway
MB860 Peace
Well I kinda figured out what's going on with the Gallery. It appears that a media scan won't show media already existing on the device. However, if you take a picture it will show the new pic in the gallery correctly. I've also verified that I have no .nomedia files.
I'm guessing that when a photo is taken it explicitly adds an entry to the media table, but there is a problem when a full scan is triggered which makes the gallery blank.

forum.xda-developers.com returns blank page on stock android 4.2.2 browser?

See title. This happens with the homepage but not subforum or thread pages. Also the thread suggestions thing wasn't working when I made this thread, and ads are not showing (no big deal you say--but I didn't do anything to disable them and it's just odd). Everything seems to work fine in Chrome, but I'd rather not use that because of the bloat.
I dunno if it has always been like this or I screwed something up? Been playing with Greenify and Autorun Manager...
It happened to me too. (4.1.2)
But after I re-flash my ROM, it show as per normal.

Thanks I guess! It worked... but I lost all my data (duh). What I did not expect was losing all my bookmarks and even my connection to my google account from the stock browser. And I don't see any way to add accounts to the stock browser so haven't found a way to get it back. Help? :crying:
Edit: Wait, I fooled around in phone settings - >accounts and re synced my google account and the bookmarks came back. Yay! :victory:
Still, is there a less *destructive* way to get buggered pages to load properly again?

No no no you weren't supposed to wipe your data cache. You were suppose to go to system settings ---> apps---> downloaded apps--->XDA and clear the data and force close the app only. Sorry I wasn't more clear
on that point.

Yeah, well I was having trouble with xda loading on the stock browser, so I went to system settings->apps->all apps->browser and FCed it and cleared its data. Pretty close to your instructions no?
Can't imagine the havoc it would have wreaked if I wiped data in recovery without some backup
So as I was saying, pages load wrongly from the stock browser (or heck chrome even) every now and then--is wiping browser's data the only way to go? I tried wiping cache first but no joy

[Help] Chrome does not delete history

Alright, so I'm having this problem since a few months on both of my devices (Nexus 7 and Galaxy S3). For some reason, chrome keeps on remembering entrys of my history. It doesnt matter how many times I clear the browsing data, even clearing the app data doesnt work.
Web history and predictive search are both turned off.
Is there anyone that had a similiar problem and/or knows a solution? I attached a screenshot as example.

Force stop your Chrome in setting, and you can find a clear data button in that page.

I've done that (as stated in the op) but even this has no effect. It might work for a couple of hours, but after that, entrys that were there before clearing the data, return.

If you like chrome, what's so good about it??

Come on guys, he asked a problem about Chrome, if he wanted to just switch to another browser he would.
Clearly something is wrong.
Are you signed in with your Google account or you're using local ?

Thank you. I'm using my local account, so no web history is in play. The problem seems to be rare, I have been googling for a few weeks now but I have yet to come accross a similiar problem (on android that is).

A question out of ordinary using the same methods as a regular PC... have you tried uninstalling Chrome and installing again from the Play Store?
i would recommend re-installing from the play store as well.
I have tried that, no luck though. I'll try and report it as a bug to Google, might get a response from them aswell.
