Loaded the wicked tmo rom and logged into my dropbox account then recieved an email from dropbox thanking me for supercharging my samsung device with dropbox.
It told me to log in to my pc and finish a few steps and boom I had 50gb of space.

This actually makes sense considering it's a T-Mobile ROM but I would think that the APN would prevent this check from validating? Excellent find if this is 100% true!

What i did was flash this AND ktoonsez kernal, i selected the wicked rom and then added another zip and flashed them in sequence, rebooted, put in my att apn settings and loged into dropbox and got that email.
Read this about the free 48gb.

I work with this guy that posted it, he showed me, it is legit, I am going to install tonight....yes! Nice find for sure.
I'm not trying to be a party pooper here guys, but be careful with this. Certain carriers, including AT&T (US) have opted out of the Dropbox promotions. Now normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but the promotions are for free space "if" you are on certain carriers. The drop box folks have been known to get a little upset when free space is activated on non-qualified phones. I've seen it happen in the Skyrocket forums. Personally, I think it is great, but it's not the kind of thing I would be advertising openly (maybe PMs for more info would be better) and I'm not sure how the forum rules apply here either. Just giving a heads up maybe it's nothing to worry about, but I wouldn't take chances.
When using this tmobile rom on at&t how do you install the LTE apn settings for AT&T?
Sent from my SGH-I337 using xda premium
Yea, i set the att apn settings. I read a little bit more and it seems like this space is only available for a year.
I'm with Bell and was pleasantly surprised by that offer when I opened dropbox... 48gb was swiftly acquired

I recently went back to stock unrooted after using Pete's ics for a few days and went to sign into Google wallet. I got a welcome email and also received another $10 credit as if it was my first time using this which is wasn't. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not complaing lol cause free money is free money; however, I really don't want to owe them in the end.

I doubt you would owe them since its a bug on their end. I say tell us if you really can spend the $20 then we can do it 20 times to buy new pair pants. Then change our user names.

Google Wallet seems to rely on the IMEI to determine if you are a new wallet user or not, despite using the same gmail account in gwallet on multiple devices, thus giving each device $10 in their wallet.
I bought my GNex in March, and installed wallet on it sometime after that for the first time ever. Of course, I got the $10. I didn't actually get to use it until recently, simply to not encoutnering anything that used NFC payments until I began attending college in Florida- all their vending machines are NFC enabled.
Shortly after starting school, my phone began acting very odd. Something was wrong with the battery controller, not the battery itself, resulting in very odd and frustrating battery issues. Anyways, I sent my phone in, since it was still under warranty, to be replaced. Kept the same SIM card, used the same gmail account on it, all that jazz.
Well, I of course put wallet back on it. To my surprise, the free $10 was given to me, even though I signed in with the same gmail account as on the faulty phone.
So, if you ever have to send in your device for replacement, spend that money before you do because you will probably get another 10.
Hey, we didn't do anything to exploit it. It's all on Google, here. Their mistake I suppose.
I did get any free money

I just noticed that Best Buy is selling the SIII for $100 today only. My plan was to get two of these at the end of the week (I'm waiting for a credit on my account from Sprint, which I'm switching over from). I definitely would love to save the $200 and get the phones today, but I need to make sure our phone numbers can remain as they are. So here's my question:
Can I buy the phones today, sign a contract with Verizon, and get two new phone numbers? Then have Verizon port our Sprint numbers over to those new SIII's as soon as the Sprint credit is applied to my account? I just don't want to be stuck with new phone numbers. My phone number hasn't changed in many, many years.
Thanks everyone for your help!! I am looking forward to being a part of this community soon!
Just buy them from wirefly or amazon man and there's no tax. I'm pretty sure when you sign your contract you're attaches to whatever number you get for the life of the contract.

My experience with wirefly is that your sim is attatched to your phone for the first 6 months... if you do not use that sim they supply you with you can get hit with a hefty charge... and its an automatic charge to the credit card used to make the purchase.. it happened to me.. luckily i was able to get the charge reversed
I've gone through this once before. Just make sure that they've added the number you want to the account before you activate the phone.
If you activate first, and then port over your number later, you'll have to go through the hassle of a new SIM card.
I hope that I'm not out of line posting this in the "general" forum. But I am getting ready to leave verizon so i can get the nexus 4 (and save a little cash on the monthly bills) and I really hate to see these two unlimited data plans i worked so hard to take advantage of and keep for so long just go to waste. Ive still got a little over a year left on the current plan and it has two lines on it, both have the unlimited 29.99 4g data added to them. I would feel silly just letting them go to waste if someone would be interested in assuming the remainder of the contract term. PM me if you happen to be interested. If i'm out of line in posting this then feel free to delete it with my apologies in mind. Also, I havent looked into separating the Lines yet in you only want one but I can investigate the possiblilty if you only need one...
Also go to androidcentral and androidforums. Plenty of people looking for unlimited data

If you pay the ETF, you keep your phone...
Only time I ever knew this to be different from anyone was with ATT back in the day when they were exclusive with the iPhone they used to pull some crap trying to take the iPhone back even if you paid the ETF if you cancelled in the first...3 months maybe? Been a while so I don't remember for sure.

I could be wrong though.
Storage isn't expanded, just extended.

I bought my GS4 with T-Mobile, shortly I received an email from Dropbox asking me to claim my free 48 GB storage, so I did, now I have a total of 53 GB storage with them.
I decided to register my GS4 in my Samsung.com account, really easy you need your imei # date of purchase and store where you bought it.
Same day Samsung send me a code for 50% off on any accessory less than $50
So I purchase the external battery & Samsung charger for 25 bucks.

Make sure your carrier is participating
Some carriers have opted out of the promotion on phones otherwise eligible. Among those not currently participating are the following carriers:
United States: AT&T
Japan: NTT DoCoMo
Verizon customers: Some Samsung devices on Verizon may be eligible for 48 GB of bonus space for one or two years. As described above, your device needs to be pre-loaded with the Dropbox app, or pre-loaded with the Dropbox out-of-box experience, to receive the applicable promotion. If your device does not have the Dropbox app pre-loaded, then it is not eligible.

Once your bonus space goes away, you can't upload more files, and have to remove some to get your space under the new limit when the bonus space expires... At least that's what happened with me about a year ago.
