In this thread, I just want to discuss what online cloud storage you use and your setup. It would be awesome if you could rate, or just describe your experience using it.Recently I've been thinking of paying for one of these services. The future seems more and more integrated with the cloud. Thinking of buying extra Google Drive storage to go with full-res upload on Google+. Also does anyone use a NAS server on their Wi-Fi Network? If so also let us know about it, really interested in that too.

So...

I currently use my HTC One X with Dropbox, Instant Upload enabled. In addition I store my iPhoto library on Dropbox. Everything is synced seamlessly, however takes forever for me to download them.:silly:

SkyDrive

Personaly i use SkyDrive since i am one of the older users i got the free 25GB of storage and no other service has been able to top this yet.

I use both the desktop software and the network drive mapping trick if i am on a computer without admin permissions.

I mainly store files here handy to other people or files that i want to be able to access easily on a range of diffrent computers.

In addition i got a 1GB network share hosted by DD-WRT for easy file transfers over the network.

I'm the dev of Send It - which integrates a bunch of cloud storage solutions (not trying to plug just giving my experience of using them all).

In my testing I've found Google Drive or SkyDrive to be the best implementations from a technical standpoint. Dropbox I found to be very slow both uploading and downloading compared to those. Box is also a nice solution and if you have an LG device you get 50GB free, but I found the online UI pretty clunky.

If you're looking to use it from a Phone then I would suggest Google Drive just because if you already use Google services its so much easier. Or if not SkyDrive. My 2 cents :)

Google Drive, because it is most reliable and fast, plus it is integrated with google services that i use, and Google provides simple desktop and mobile app for sync (i know that almoust every storage service have it, but i like simplicity of Google one)

Some advice please?

Well, thanks for letting me know bout Send It. Its Really Neat, great job. Its probably making lots of people think, why didn't I think of that, it is so simple yet it works flawlessly.

However, what I want to ask is, is using a few cloud services to have this "safety-net" if any of these cloud storage services fails so that I don't lose my work a good idea? Or is it already safe enough? Its not about the lack of storage though. I just want to know that my files are safe and backed up so I don't have to worry about it. Is what I am thinking really not worth the cumbersome mess where Less is More applies? Any help is really appreciated :confused:

I am currently using Dropbox and Box. I use Dropbox the most because it is faster and allows for larger uploads. I currently have 25GB of space to use (thank you fiverr). I use my Box account for documents, some music, and smaller backup files since it is slower and has an upload files limit of 250MB. I was able to get it early when it just started and have a 50GB account with them.

[General Questions and Answers] blackdivines:
I have no problems using Dropbox. However when I am using it on mobile too I don't put large bulky files in it.
[General Questions and Answers] crazyfool_1:
I suppose it depends on how easily you can upload to multiple services at once. Cloud storage is great for portability for but offline backups are always the best as you control them. Most, if not all, of these services have versioning too which is some form of backup if you accidentally overwrite a file. That's a big reason of why DropBox became so popular was ease of use, you didn't have to do anything.

I find Dropbox best for my pc, on my phone I use SkyDrive via Send It to quickly sync specific files, all of them have something different to offer. Personally I would say try a few and see which best fits your needs and then stick with one :)

I am glad I found this thread as I was getting ready to ask the same question as the OP.

I have been using Ubuntu One which will give you 5.5 GBs of space if you use this referral link (5 GBs if you go directly to their website without using the referral link):

http://bit.ly/VOm9O7

I like it a lot:

Simple to use Android and PC interface.

Good layout on webpage.

Automatically syncs from phone.

Decent amount of space if you have a referral link.

But there are two things I don't like. First, it will not let you pick what additional folders you want to have automatically sync'd. Second, it doesn't appear to allow uploading videos saved in the Android camera folders (it might if selecting each video manually but that ties into the first issue).

So that brings me to my question. Does anyone know of a service that allows users to pick and choose what folders they want to have automatically synced to the cloud? If I could just do pictures and videos; that would be awesome! Additionally, SMS and MMS messages and maybe contacts would be nice as well.

Well, thanks for all the advice, but what i really am interested in is a secure way to backup my photos. I believe that cloud storage is a lot safer somehow, but has no privacy, not that I care much. A downside might be cost, but don't have to worry about that for another year. 25GB of Dropbox from HTC :D. I think the more backups you have, the better? If I am just going to keep local copies, what are some good Photo Library apps for a Mac?

Well guess what one guy found. Free 15GB When you sign up to Box through Astro File Manager. I was mucking around with Astro one night, and found an offer. Should have taken a screenshot, but well, there isn't any point in lying. I guess Astro "somehow" knew I was interested in cloud services. Don't think apps are that smart, but its a worth a shot. Just download the Astro File manager from the Play Store , play around with it and get a 15GB offer. I dunno how I got the offer, but it just popped up ;)

[General Questions and Answers] Rentapest:
I'm using "Box" right now, and am finding it awesome! I've managed to get 50GB free storage with it. You can customize (like with DropBox) who gets access to what etc. I'm not using the 'sync' feature, so can't really rate that but it's so easy to upload/download files from both on the PC and the Device.

I must admit I didn't try DropBox on the device, I went straight to this, so it's unfair to compare. But I have always used DropBox with my PC to share files online, then spotted the massive 50GB that Box were offering and simply moved there.

I hope this helps.

*sigh* Can't post links, so just google for 'box' and you'll find it. The app is also called 'box' on the PlayStore.

This is weird...

i got 2 weeks ago a new galaxy s2 att and used fine for a week with a standard straight talk sim card that i cut myself to fit the micro sim port...

it worked fine for a week calls, internet message, media message, everything.

i was charging the phone on the wall one day and when i get it to make a phone call i noticed not sim card inserted error...

i cleaned contact reinserted nothing....i put in my wife phone sim card is perfect.

i sent my galaxy out for repair at the same time i got this great deal on craiglist an atrix hd for $100...

I inserted the same sim card and everything was fine untill yesterday....i got sim card not inserted error...ohmygod i said please dont tell me....

reset phone cleaned contacts nothing ......

My question is can a sim card damage the phone?

Both phone were rooted

Both phones were att provider using straight talk service

Both phones were 4g

I removed from both phones the att junk

Any of this they may have somehow locked the sim card port or damaged it?

It can not be a coincidence any expert can get a good answer?

I'm going crazy
[Motorola Atrix HD] RCon227:
I had the same problem back when I had my One X and my brother had the same problem with his Atrix HD because we cut down our SIM Cards. After I got an official Micro SIM the problem stopped. When you cut your own Micro SIM you stand the chance of trimming off too much. Even if its only a small amount it can still cause the SIM to move around which causes the connection loss.
[Motorola Atrix HD] AnkurBedi:
You are not crazy , you just lack good logical reasoning :p . The common thing is the sim . I have no idea why you would send your phone for repair when the other sim worked perfectly . If sim port was damaged , it wouldn't have worked with any sim . Get a new sim , report the old one as lost . Ask for micro sim as the replacement or cut it with a micro sim cutter ( Available at most service providers cust service centers or buy one from ebay , they are cheap ) .

---------- Post added at 06:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 AM ----------

That's true , cutting with scissors can be tricky . However I cut my SIM with a micro sim cutter and everything is perfect for the past 2 months . Even if you go to some customer service center (atleast here ) , they do the same cutting with a micro sim cutter . I find the whole filling the application with giving my ID proof again and then getting the active connection in another 24hrs on the replaced micro sim very tedious .
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
I use microsim cutter which I bought only about 5$. It works perfectly. I can even use the cutting side to cover the microsim as mini sim again.
[Motorola Atrix HD] htchd2fix:
thanx friends, your answers gimme some hope that in fact is the sim card that does not make good contact.

still cant explain why when i insert other sim card inactive the phones wont read them at all...(.like this is another provider enter unlock code)

just i wish somebody of the experts here can assure me that the sim card can not damage the fone or lock it.

(of course i'm not talking physical damage at the pin point)

ROM and Kernel have only a small effect on battery life. The main culprits are processes that wake the phone up from deep sleep and engage the CPU or data transmittion.

[General Questions and Answers] kinky_hose:
Yep - that worked like a charm

Thanks Brad, that worked perfectly. :highfive:

For newbies, here are the steps I used:

1. Use a File Browser app (I used File Manager) to go to the root folder and then navigate to /system. In that location, you will find the build.prop file.

2. In the file, locate the lines mentioned by Brad_J above and make a copy of each line, then comment out the previous line by putting a # in front of it (you will see there's several comments in the file already - and it's a standard UNIX practice to make a copy of the old line and comment it).

3. Modify the new uncommented lines you created with the right values from Brad_J's post - be sure to copy exactly including upper/lower case.

4. Save the file

5. Reboot the device

6. Once the device boots back up, enjoy the Zinio app.

As far as I can see, this has not affected anything else in any way. The only change is that the tablet now proclaims itself as a Nexus 7 in the Settings -> About Tablet menu.
