Data limits - upload and download? - General Questions and Answers

I'm just curious whether mobile data is counted as just download data or download and upload? For example, on a 2gig plan, if 100MB of data is uploaded, does that count towards the 2gigs?

How to Know Downloaded Data Size?

Does anyone know how to get information on how many bytes have been downloaded/uploaded for GPRS data in Windows Mobile? I plan to sign up 1GB mobile data connection, so crucial to know that I won't use more than 1GB.. Thanks.
i am using SPB Wireless Monitor. It's not free but it does enable you to keep a close eye on what you are using amd which application is hogging your data.

Get an extra 4.5GB Dropbox space for beta testing the new Dropbox app!

Dropbox have released a new beta version of their Dropbox app for Android. The new version allows automatic uploading of photos and videos in the background as soon as they're taken. You can choose to only allow uploads when connected to a wifi network if you wish.
As soon as your first photo or video is uploaded you'll receive an extra 500MB of space. For every 500MB of photos/videos you upload thereafter you'll receive another 500MB up to a maximum of 4.5GB
If you aren't yet using Dropbox please consider signing up using my referral link
Here is a link to the Dropbox forum thread
And a direct link to the Dropbox apk
Hope this helps some people

Im not sure what you mean? If you're asking when you get the space, I got mine after my first pic was auto uploaded. So turn on auto uploading in the app then take a picture and wait for it to be uploaded. You should get your space soon after
Thanks! It works like a charm, it's good to have "another" online backup service for pictures, as SugarSync occasionally decides not to do what it's supposed to do.
THX! I now feel!

I got the first 2GBs.
I followed everything correctly, have a folder named DCIM in SD card with 4.6GB's of photos. Dropbox only gave me an additional 500 MBs!!
If that's it, I'm deleting and cancelling my account, but I really do want to jump on the Cloud Storage Wagon.... any help ??
P.S. I registered with me uni email (.edu)
edit: i cancelled the upload, then it updated itself. Got 7GBs yo.... I hope it doesn't expire after the beta testing time, that would be unethical

It doesn't expire
an easier way to do this: get a USB Stick or memory card, make a folder called DCIM and insert 4.5 gigs of pics, avi or mp4, turn Win Autoplay on and select to import files to Dropbox, be sure to have the latest version installed
Windows installer v1.3.12: http://www.mediafire.com/?m33xniuv1wbnfp6
Android apk v2.0.9: http://www.mediafire.com/?6u0cik75gdj84pz
wait for the upload to finish, it will take some time, you can also upload smaller files, if u don't have a 4.5 gigs usb

no, if u have a folder named DCIM on your usb stick / memory card, the dropbox soft will see it as a phone ans sync it
this is how i got my 5 gigs, i didn't even use the android apk
I just started my video (on my phone) to record. Left it for 20 mins and then stopped it. Left the phone to upload the video. Got additional space. Did this a few more times and got additional space each time.
Note to get the full 5GB, you have to load at least 500Mb of photos or video. Uploading 5GB of just videos or 5GB of just photos will only get you 4.5GB space. 4.5GB of video and 500Mb of photos will get you 5GB.

Dropbox v2.0.9 + 5Gb Freespace

Requirements: Android 1.6+
Overview: how it´s work.
• Automatically uploads photos and videos in the background using Wi-Fi or data plan
• 500MB of free space on first photo uploaded automatically
• Upload files of any size (no more 180 MB limit!)
• Support for resuming file uploads when there are network issues
• Various performance improvements & bug fixes
During this beta period, they are also offering additional free space to test automatic uploading of photos and videos. For every 500MB of photos and videos automatically uploaded, you'll receive another 500MB space bonus, up to 5GB total (including the initial 500MB space).
[Update: this space is not separate from 5GB given for uploading on their desktop clients. Uploading from either desktop clients or Android app will count towards the same 5GB free space.]
for every 500mb upload you get 500mb spave free up to 5gb.
it's plus 5gb on top of what you already have.
pretty awesome
Note:-Only images and videos taken using your phone's Dropbox through camera upload tab are valid.

There's a post to download dummy jpgs for upload in the Epic Touch forum. What i did was upload my own, by batch renaming copies til I had enough. to upload to the 5g. Only took a few minutes to get it all done.
just make a 4.5 gb full hd video and then wait for upload ;-)

Download the Dropbox app from the Play Store.
Log onto or create a new Dropbox account with your HTC Phone
Follow the on screen instructions.
I did that and it still says that I have only 2.5 gb of space =/ There were like only two pages of instructions. One that said something about how to get 500mb of storage and the other asked whether to use wifi or wifi and data
I had to do 5 of seven things on a list, then I got my 25. plus 2.5, plus 500mb. So I got 28, and from what I understand, it's indefinite, not 2 years.
The 25GB is only two years afaik - the 2.5GB/whatever will be indefinite. Log into the Dropbox website on a computer after you've gone through the setup on the phone and it should tell you you have the bonus 25GB.
Even if it is only two years, allowed me to not pay for 50GB Dropbox for two years
Can I get 50gb from returning my device lol

After creating an account on your phone from the dropbox app..... Go to dropbox(dot)com/gs and. Complete 5 of the 7 steps to get the 25gb for 2 years....I did this the day I got mine.

i just signed into my dropbox from the app i downloaded from the market. i got my free space a few minutes later that was confirmed in an email, but i only got 23.? gigs not 25. but i already had around 4 so im right around 30 right now. camera burst and instant camera upload is a quick way to gain a few gigs,but you gotta upload 500mb of pics for 500mb of space so you have to delete alot of pics from your phone and dropbox after your done. nothing a little multi selecting cant do.

After you log onto the Dropbox site there is a list of I believe 7 items you can do for additional space such as installing on a desktop, sharing a note etc. To receive the additional space from having Sense 4.0 you need to complete at least 5 items on the list.

Seems like a nice app. But you get 50gb free from Dropbox with your phone + it's integrated in the phone. So why switch?
