Extra 100GB for HTC owners Google Drive - One (M8) General

Anyone got this deal? I wonder if they will honor this for early adopters

Haven't got it yet.

Just received my notification in my email. Thanks Google

Just got mine too Woot

If I never did the original 50gb, is there a way to get it now that I am s-off'd and rooted?

I already have 50gb from my m8. Will it be upgraded to 100gb?

Just get it through HTC chat and am s-off, unlocked and rooted

I got this too... Yay for Google eh?

I didnt get the email or notification but for anyone interested I went into setting > apps > drive and deleted the updated. When I launched google drive next it gave me the notification and added the 100gb to my account.
I also got my phone on release day so Ive had it for awhile and still qualified.

I have had my M8 for several months now.
I logged into my Drive account and within a few minutes got an email saying i am getting an extra 100 GB..
So i think its retroactive for the early adopters.

I am guessing, this will work only for locked bootloaders?
Anyone who has got the storage already with unlocked bootloader?

I have 125GB automatically (15+10 quick office+100 htc promo) It's just ok?

lol only 15GB here :laugh::silly:

Took many weeks for me. In the US.
I submitted my application before the app inventor came out and still have yet to get an invite.
Got mine a couple of days ago, applied as soon as i heard about it, must be a moth ago. Live in norway, and didn't submit my gmail address...
I got mine a couple of days ago too.I applied as soon as I heard about well over a month ago.I also live in Norway and i used my gmail addrress.
Only problem is I can't make it work on my Nexus with eViL-NXSense-v120
I haven't check but if they allowed I can send you a invite

I signed up for it right when they first announced the App Inventor, still no email. I'm sure the're flooded with requests so I applied again. ; ) Heh Heh
I am not a developer, yet I applied hoping it would help me make a couple of applications Ive been wanting for my self. That is even how I filled out the application for invite. I got mine a week and some change ago.
Hi,
I have registered my Google account for the app inventor, I have got the mail from Google but when I installed on my pc the app inventor I can not login with my account.
Has anyone seen an howto for the app inventor?

Trust me on this. Make an account (you'll need it) and with a password you've never used before. PM me the username and pass. I'll make it 50gb for you. The 50gb thing only works or a kind of 'coworkers' promotion thing offered by box. I know it sounds like i'm gonna steal the account, but you can make an account with one of those minute emails and a fake password, but it won't be of much use to you(minute email's inboxes empty themselves after a while).
I went for the promotion but no luck,I don't show any new storage on my account. Any pointers?

Google Edition Shipped!

Checked my email before work this morning and got the notice from Google that the GE phones have shipped!
To note I chose the 3-5 day free shipping and it's still getting here tomorrow, SWEET!
I ordered my phone on June 26th, 2013 around 1:24 PM EST, with no issues on ordering like the N4 fiasco. Probably due to the price tag.
Attached some pics.. getting excited

Yep, remember unlocking it is as simple as 'fastboot oem unlock' - none of this HTC Dev crap! Then rip everything you can from the phone (boot.img, system, recovery, radio, etc.)
I'll see what I can do. Earliest UPS guy comes is around 12:30 and I'm usually home for lunch, however won't be back from work till around 5.
I'm sure someone will have a dump by then, haha, but if not I should be able to pull the files.
in case you need them, here are the instructions for a FULL dump

I got my shipping notification as well, but it's not scheduled to get to my drop box till Friday...

Guys who are getting it. Please go to my thread and follow the instructions to dump all the partitions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356918
If any of you are in NYC and are a bit confused on how to dump it all after reading the thread and if you're willing to meet up let me know. We can meet up and I can pull all the partitions

Most likely you are receiving it tomorrow because of your proximity to a shipping location. I doubt that they are doing overnight shipping for free.

Yeah here is to wishing they ship with 4.3 lol
The idea here is not for us to be able to run the rom but to fully do a conversion. As of now we have the 4.2.2 rom and boot image. I have two ones and I want to fully convert one to a GE. I know others are interested in performing a full conversion as well. And if we do the full conversion when the 4.3 OTA drops we would get it as an OTA and not have to wait for other devs to package it all up for everyone

Free 50 Gb Google cloud storage

I discovered this by accident (& fortunately in time) that with a purchase of a new Moto G, if you access Google Drive within 30 days you can click to take advantage of an additional 50 Gb of cloud storage on your Google account for 2 years at no cost!
You snooze - you lose!
I think everyone who owns a moto g know this. no need to open a thread for this.

I did not know about the offer and I am already using my Drive on a different gmail account (which has 15GB). There is nothing showing up after product tour either. Nothing to say redeem or already redeemed. Is there anyway to find this out?
how do they start counting these 30days? 30 days after purchase, 30days after first boot or 30days after first login to google services on the device?

In my case (XT1028 Verizon) I have never activated the phone so it appears the countdown started when I first entered my Google account credentials.
The first visit to Drive on the device starts with a tutorial & on the last page presents the clickable offer.
I've bought first the 8 gb version and activated the 50Gb promo, but soon after I discovered a dead pixel on the screen and returned the phone back. Misfortune did not allow me to exchange or buy a new one, since they were all sold out and I bought 16 Gb in another country, so now I both have 50Gb in GDrive and 16 Gb on the device Sorry for a little boasting So I guess the next guy who buys the fixed device wouldn't get google's promo, right?

Why not try man? Just open Google drive and see if you get the offer(if the 30 days are not over yet).
The reason for me to skip this and several other simular past offers, is that it is temperary. With prices gDrive dropped I almost took a cheap subscription with Google. The reason I didn't is that Drive only works with Windows with all cloud files permanently synced on harddrive. I find that ridiculous. When I use cloud I want to spare the space on my hard drive. OneDrive and Box I can use in Windows without the need to have all those gigabytes of data on my hard drives at all times.

You are not forced to have the app installed on Windows... You are not even forced to use the 65 GB you now have with it... Your logic beats Google.

GPE phones don't get this offer, FYI.
I did got this upgrade without my knowledge. When I checked my google drive it says 65gb. Lol. Too bad I don't have plans in using it tho as I have a slow upload speed. I used otg if I have something big to store.

The downside of using cloud storage and not having optic fiber is that it's not really effective... We shall wait Google fiber worldwide and probably that will give us direct unlimited connection speed to Google.

I didn't know about this and when I checked it said offer expired. Would a factory reset and sign in under a different Google account make the offer available again?

With MEGA you have 50GB free forever and not just for two years.
