Just tried it just now, and it worked. Here is what i did:

(i have a Galaxy Nexus running CM 10.2.1 [4.3.1])

1. dropbox app info> clear data> uninstall

2. turn off auto update in play store

3. Install Titanium BackUp. >Manage Android ID > random ID (it will reboot after)

4. backup phone in recovery

5. installed zip file through custom recovery

6. the old dropbox icon was there waiting for me

7. enter account info (i got an 50gb email in a minute)

Form here on, i'm not sure what to do

What I did:

-I deleted dropbox data

-restored backup of my rom (from step 4) using custom recovery

-restored my Andoird ID in Titanium backup (your phone will restart)

And that should do it.

I just installed dropbox again, everything seems to be right.

I'm guessing this way dropbox thinks that you activated dropbox on your fancy new Samsung phone, never to connect it to the internet ever again.

I'll edit this post if it stops working. Cheers.

UPDATE: it is now June 1st 2014, about 4 months from this post, and its still working
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] amst3l:
But did you use your existing account? Or did you create a new one? I'm running out of my 50GB soon so would really like to know!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Sean Z:
Tried this method. Logged in my account, and it still says that I only have 3GB of storage. Checked email and I'm getting nothing. Am I missing something here?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] daikenas08:
I initially bought a Samsung galaxy s3 and my 50GB promo is about to expire, should i wait till it runs out or will the trick work now aswell (giving me 100GB for a while)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
I actually tried this with the same account and a new account. It must have recognized my phone already accessed this becuz it didn't work the second time. Im not sure if anyone else got it to work a second time.

I am going to try this on my old droid x and OG droid to see if that works.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] dazz0038:
Can you please make a quick video because it doesn't make sense
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
I am trying on my old Droid X. The zip is failing. Where do I put this extraction? I was able to install the app successfully.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] wapem:
it worked !! thanks alot , i have 50gb now , on my Xperia SP dropbox , after you do all the steps check your dropbox email , and you'll see the invitation in there :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] sinedoOo:
Great, it really works! Now i have free 48Gb on my dropbox:)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] marcel201:
Wow, it's great. It realy works . I've received 48 GB for two years. The email arrived just after i logged in to my free account.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Toranos:
Yes work. 48GB for 24 months. Thanks!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] insanely:
Samsung Galaxy S4 first time trying this...worked great

I had my doubts since the OP is almost a year old. BUT....This still worked for me this morning. lets hope in 24 months it will work again.

Thanks for posting this!

edit: it asked me to update the app as soon as i rebooted after flashing the .zip i suggest you don't update until you log in at least once, after that you should have no issue with taking the update (after you get the 50GB)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] thgm21:

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Sh4d0Wx:
Will this work without root, CWM on my phone? Just stock android?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] zygis10:
Well you at least need root because of step 3 in op ;)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Sh4d0Wx:
Oh, okay thanks :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] engis:
still works!! :D
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] grieflar:
Yep, still works!

Tried to re-enter this on my account that I used with my S3 back in 2012, that didn't work though.

Created a new account and applied hack = 50,75 Gb of space. Will migrate from old to new account when my space expires.

10$/month is too expensive :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
Was this on the same phone you used last time? It didn't work when I tried with a different account on the same phone.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] grieflar:
No, I used another phone for the registration.

Will use the new account with the 50 GB on my S3 when the original offer expires on my old account.

How can I flash *_CMW.ZIP File??
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] vin4yak:
You need CWM custom recovery to flash the file.. If you don't want to flash then just copy paste the apk files from the zip to /system/app , change permissions to rw-r-r and then reboot! :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] andybones:
Thank you very much for this, went from 2GB back to 50GB.

TWRP recovery worked fine for the CWM flashable.zip.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] tongrhj:
Is this no longer working? I can't seem to login to my account using the dled app.

Also, if I can no longer uninstall dropbox. Anyway to revert back if I didn't make a backup before flashing this zip?

Works on the htc one m8
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] basbroens:
also on M7

Hi Guys,

On the M7 i can't deinstall the dropbox app en if I remove it via Titanium backup --> then install the apk --> then flash the zip.. dropbox keeps crashing..

Any tips?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] matiapag:
I confirm the trick's still working perfectly well! Tried it out on my M7 and everything was O.K. I even had some free storage before and by doing this it added extra 48GB to the amount I've already had! The only thing I had to do was to disable two step verification in dropbox account because the old version of app in the link from the first post didn't allow to do that. I disabled it, logged into my account, instantly received the 50 gigs, updated the dropbox app and now everything is as it was, only with more space. Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] shrewdgeek:
This trick is working 100% . I cannot thank more (pressed the thanks button), i really needed this extra space for my school files and assignments.

Thanks to OP a lot.. :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] AldoBlack:
But how? I cleared the app data, unistalled the app. Downloaded the first app, installed it (didn't open), the extracted .zip file, copied 2 apk files to system/app changed the permission to rw-r--r--. Then copied com.dropboxpartner.jar to system/framework, changed the permission to rw-r--r--. Then logged in, nothing happened. No email nothing. I waited 1 hour. Am I doing something wrong? I do not know how to flash .zip file that's why I did it manually. Maybe a help to show step by step how flash zip would be greatful.

Thank You.

UPDATE: After doing all the steps above I had to restart the phone to make it work. :)

If DropBox takes away 48GB of storage I will update this post.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Jonnyredcorn:

I'm on a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, which came with dropbox preinstalled and I've already gotten the legitimate 50GB for. I'd like to do it again and get 50GB for a friend. So how do you uninstall the built in dropbox?

Thanks!

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] mohsin2cool:
u actually dont need to uninstall just go to settings/apps then find dropbox, click on it , then wipe data. thn flash the cwm installer, ur done

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] DocTauri:
Hmmm, I tried this, didn't work.

Started off fresh, wiped everything via CWM, then installed the zip, but no extra 50gb.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] FireStorm@:
I guess it does not work for accounts that already received extra bonus. through a samsung device
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] DocTauri:
Trying it against an account that does not have the free space, but the device itself has already redeemed the legitimate freebie once.

I was hoping that installing the CWM zip would get around that, but no joy.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] tomosendre:
works

It worked form me on a HTC One s (Ville) with Maximus HD 10.1

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Alamkhan:

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] OngL:
Thanks. I have just made this work on my older device SGS2 after the previous promotion expire.

I would like to ask some questions:

1. Every new samsung device comes with a 50GB dropbox. Let say if I already have an account that has the 48GB bonus space awarded and I log in using that account to the new samsung device, obviously the bonus will not be awarded again. Will I use that device's bonus simply by logging in? Or I can still login with it in the future with a new account and get the bonus?

I would like to use dropbox app in my tablets and devices with a pre-activated 50GB dropbox account, however, I don't want to waste the bonus given there.

Thanks for the insight.

great !! it works !! thanks..

catch is that it doesn't work if one has already used this scheme !!

but if I login with a new ID , then it works perfectly ...

Did not work for me, I haven't used this scheme with this account previously. Have they discontinued the promotion?

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] salils:
Has anyone be able to get this to work on bluestacks + Mac OS X? I don't have a rooted Android device at the moment but my 50gb of dropbox space is about to expire. :/ Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
I have not tried. But I know you can't use it with accounts that already had the promotion. I had to make a new account to get it to work again.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] salils:
That shouldn't be a problem...I'm not particularly attached to my current Dropbox account for any reason.

Update: I was able to get this to work once on blue stacks for windows 7 (via parallels on OS X). Is there any way to get it to work for an additional account? I tried many times reinstalling the Dropbox app, rebooting, replacing the .jar file and resetting the permissions again but it doesn't show that I can earn 48gb at Dropbox.com/gs on any of the new accounts except tahe first one I did on bluestacks which I mentioned above. Would like to have one more as a back up... how does Dropbox identify the device as one that has fulfilled the offer or not?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
You can try on another computer. I tried on a different ROM once and it could tell that it was already used. Maybe if you have some old backup computer you can try it and share with us :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] salils:
I was hoping I wouldn't have to go that far :p Will have to install bluestacks and such on there if it's compatible.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] ahecht:
I'm not sure what metric it uses, but you could try running bluestacks inside another Windows VM (Windows XP Mode maybe?).

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] ProTofik:
I own the Galaxy S3 and it originally came with free 50GB dropbox. I redeemed it and flashed custom ROM. Now, after 2 years it is about to expire.

I created a new dropbox account and followed OP's instructions but I still haven't got the 50GB of free space on my new account.

Is it still working?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
Only once per device. It will work on your next phone. Otherwise use the bluestack process listed above. It can emulate an android device.

Hi,

I was wondering if someone here could do this for a new account I've created? How I'm hoping to get this done is I give you the account username and password, you get me the bonus, and then I change the password. I ask of this because I've tried this method on my phone as well as on bluestacks with no luck.

Hello!

How I need to do this: "or you can extract that zip and manually copy the files and set permissions"

Where I need to copy, and which permissions? Readable, unreadable, or what?

My phone is not rooted, so I can't flash the zip.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
You can only do either step if you are rooted.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] robagp:
Hello!

Now, I'm rooted, how I need to do permissions? rw-r-r ?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] llama555:
Yeah. That is correct based on someone else's experience earlier in the thread. I flashed mine and it worked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jdkzombie:
I had to go back to stock with injected root to use my allshare dongle. I loathe stock rom with every fiber of my being.

Does anyone know or has anyone tried flashing custom recovery and custom rom and kernel then flash back to stock recovery and allshare still works? Or perhaps a work around other than triangle away. Which I don't enjoy rebooting my phone every time I want to connect.

I use the dongle in my car with the pioneer appradio2 so rebooting the phone everything I connect to my stereo gets old fast.

Sorry if it seems like I'm nitpicking. I had triangle away soft brick on me once before and had to Odin flash to fix.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] premiatul:
No, you have to be completely stock for it to work. This is a struggle for many of us and it goes back many months.

None of the devs took the time or interest to take the app apart and remove the part that checks the phone.

Sorry to give you the bad news.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
While I am in no way a dev, I did take some time to take apart the handful of apks and jars that are most obviously related to allshare - but I was unable to find out where exactly the check occurs. I even went through and hacked up SysScope.apk a little in an attempt to emulate an xposed sysscopeblaster mod that I had heard helps, but again to no avail. And by "no avail" I mean "the person that tested it said it didn't work" - as I have no allshare things to really test stuff. I contacted some other actual-dev folks that got things working on other carriers, and while reports indicate that replicating their methods worked with the 4.1.1 base for whatever reason 4.1.2 seems to behave differently, making such a replication no longer effective. This quickly began to land far outside any pseudo-skillset I might possess unfortunately. Hmm... does anyone happen to have the the flashable zip that was used to OTA update from 4.1.1 UVALL4 to 4.1.2 UVBMB4? Or was an OTA not possible (i.e. had to do it via Kies/Odin/etc.)? I just did the Odin approach using stuff from sammobile myself... it's a long shot but there could be a clue in there perhaps.

Anyhoo - long story short my personal attempt at figuring this out has revealed an absence of some needed skill or awareness of where such checks actually occur. Just thought I would chime in to show that it's not necessarily an issue of no one looking into it - just maybe not the right people :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jdkzombie:
Ah. Well that blows. Thanks for the info though. Strange how Samsung is usually one of the manufacturers that condones aftermarket and custom work but would pull a stunt like this with allshare and tethering.

Been eyeballing roms and triangle away. But if everything has to be completely stock to work I'm just a dog barking up am empty tree.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brotsalami:
Dear all,

I couldn't find any related topic yet with a quick search so I hope I wont get blamed for not finding the correct thread.

Sadly my Display from my 3G Nexus 7 broke yesterday. (A ****ty day for many reasons... not only this one)

Now I was thinking to buy a used or broken Nexus 7 to replace the complete front part.

Does anyone know if I could use just any of the Nexus 7 models to do that, or if I have to stick to the 3G model?

Of course it might be cheaper to buy just a small 8GB version and use that panel.

Thank you for any help regarding that topic.
