Dropbox - Epic 4G General

What is it? I saw it on my friends macbook and remembered seeing an app for it
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App

It's pretty cool.
You install the app on your computer (or computers) and you sign up for an account. You get 2 GB free. You then install the app from the market and you can transfer files from your computer to your phone anywhere in the world.
You can also set up a share folder with which you can share with others using Dropbox.

www.dropbox.com
I didn't even have to google it.

One of the best ideas ever! I have all my computersand phone synced together. I used to save all my reports to the folder and could pull it up from anywhere

Zumodrive.com is another one, very similar, same free 2GB, same free android app and PC sync. Get them both and profit.

I'm sure that if you're interested, someone would be happy to send you an invite with a referral code so you each get more space. I'd offer, but I don't really need the space and as a newcomer I figure I should let a regular have it.

It's basically a cloud file storage utility that allows you to upload and access files across multiple locations and platforms. I like Dropbox since it's a more secure alternative to USB drives for personal documents.

Here's a referral code for dropbox:
Edit: Sorry, still new, so I can't post URLs. Put this together:
dropbox.com [slash] referrals/NTQ5MDY0OQ
If you use it, both you and I will get an additional 250MB of storage space, on top of the 2GB.
By the way, I'm brand new to the forum. Sorry for the spammy first post, but I'll be around. Just got a brand new Epic 4G, and loving it!

You should probably update the name of the post to say I WILL HOST ONLINE KITCHENS FOR FREE and people will take more notice of it.
Thanks I will do that

That's what I was thinking. I wasn't using it and paid for it already. So I was thinking what use can I put to it until my website it done. Then I was trying to learn how to create roms and myn told me to try theming something and see what makes them tick. So in the mean time it can also help me learn how to create roms so hey why not. I learned how to make wallpapers and splashscreens so far now I'm working with boot animations and changing the clock widget colors.

How to download apps outside the US

If you would like to download apps from the Amazon Market outside the US you need a Credit Card Number.
Paypal offers some CC-numbers for free: xxx.paypalobjects.com/en_US/vhelp/paypalmanager_help/credit_card_numbers.htm
use www instead of xxx!
Add one Number with an US-Adress to your Amazon Account and enjoy
This works also for the free app of the day!
I am using one of these "test credit card numbers" with my kindle fire in Austria and I can download free apps and the "free app of the day"!
Okay guys.
Thread cleaned, nothing wrong with it,and its completely safe.
Its a well known solution, its just not working always. But its not against rules
Thank you all

did you change your address to USA?
Use hotspot shield to set up or log into your usa account.
Use US address and the previous links usa card info, make this card your default one click purchase.
It works.
Worked for me, too.
Just choosing one of my US previous delivery addresses as the billing address for one of the fake numbers of the first post, and setting this "new" card as the default for one-click did the trick for me.
Only thing that still doesn't work are the movies. I am a Prime subscriber and would *love* to use my free video library. I guess that requires a VPN, isn't it?
Best.
Felipe.
Worked for me!!!
Awesome Thanks a lot
Felipe, Yeah You need VPN...It won't work with US credit card & Address
I had seen this before but was scared off by warnings of Amazon zapping my account. Lack of those warnings here made me give it a go (totally illogical I know) and it worked perfectly.

Google Drive

Not really phone related, in a direct fashion, but oh well.
I've just opened my Google Drive account, and I'm seeing that we can create public links. Therefor, I will be transferring all of my files (actually, I'm transferring them as I type this) to Drive. All of my posts where I link files will be changed to Drive links. I would suggest that the developers do the same, if they can. 5gb free storage, and the ability to share directly with other drive members (Kind of a joint folder), seems pretty nice. I'm not sure if they will '509' traffic, a la dropbox, but I have sent a message to Drive asking about it.
Just food for thought for those who wish to consider it. I'll keep this post updated, as I use Drive with the pro/cons I've found for the program, as I go.

Not sure how true but rumor has it Google can do what they want with any files, etc stored there, according to their terms and conditions. Probably shouldn't be an issue but never know.

I feel like Google Drive is going to be useful once app developers start taking advantage of the API. Give game apps permission to access drive, upload your saved game data so it isn't lost. Same with other apps. Upload and backup important data to your drive account so you can access anywhere if needed, and restore it to another phone.
I shall be deleting dropbox...

You know, in the time you googled that, did the "let me google that for you" crap, hid the link in a url shortener, then posted, you could've just said "I don't kow" instead.

1. Go daddy is a bunch of censorship supporting assholes
2. Just find your FTP info and make an FTP account for whoever wants hosting.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
Yep it's relatively simple. I use 1and1 for hosting, never used godaddy so I can't say for sure how to set up FTP accounts but you should have a control panel of sorts. You can then create an FTP account for a user, define the base directory for that account, and then they can upload their files to it.

This is something I've been considering doing myself. It's nice to have more control than what we get from the current services out there. Though dev-host is becoming a very good host.

Also, godaddy is slow as hell. I would never recommend them to anyone. Austin, FTP options are in your hosting control panel. That's found under your Account below Domains. Don't do to much unless you have an account for it tho.
I have a Server at Hostgator, but they have hosting cheaper than godaddy and way better service. All connections are 100/100mbps constant ea.

[WIP]My Xperia Play Site

Hi, I made a site for the Play. Basically it's meant to host files for devs so people can download Rom's etc. If you're a dev and you want your files hosted just PM me
Here's the site: http://www.xplay-roms.co.cc
It's still a WIP but what do you guys think?
Update 04/09/12: PC crashed, lost original files but rest assured I'll try my best to get it updated, the site still works though
I would love to have a Gin2JellyBean Repository on your website
your site doesnt look that good but i wish you good luck with it
Its nice to have more places to get stuff for our xplays. Out of curiousity Is there any free ways to open a site like yours? And do you have to pay a lot for the storage for the downloads? PM any info if you have a chance. Thanks and good luck with yours.

Looks good to me. It's very simplistic, but I think that's a plus, since people shouldn't get lost trying to find where the heck to actually download the ROMs this way ;D

Hi, thanks for the feedback, I'm always interested in your opinions. As for your questions, I pay for the hosting around $40 a year I think and I just registered a free .co.cc domain. Well anyways this was just a quick setup and only a temporary design, I'm planning on re-vamping it soon.
I normally spend a week or two on most sites but this one was a quick 5-10 minute job just using a template. Anyways I'd love to hear your suggestions on expansion and development, if you don't mind?

AVG 2012, website is clean to me. I like how it's simplistic, easy to find stuff. Imo you should upload FW and Binary's recovery for a tools section.
Just a thought/ request.
Been a while sorry but thanks for the suggestions guys. The site is virus free I can assure you, my guess is the domain name ends in .co.cc so that's probably why it was detected as "unsafe". Anyway I've started a complete redesign and I'm uploading some new content so bear with me a while if the site isn't functional - thanks
Site looks great, however I have an option that would be MUCH more convenient .
This is my file host for a game called Minebuilder: www.fileblox.cu.cc
Its got an uploader available to everyone (you can add a password).
This would save you time uploading.
EDIT:
If anyone wants, I will create a sample site, with uploader and sample repositories (with a cool web file browser) and if all goes well, maybe myself and the OP could share our knowledge, or something if the sort
Nice! 2GB's of space would be awesome, but simple uploader has higher priority :3
