Just in case anyone has missed this, see here:

Post 6 tells you exactly what you need to do, if you are a Note owner. It also works for other android devices. You just need to be rooted.

You can also try this

It doesn't require root access.

Can't find the "system/" directory :-(

.

I am rooted with hidden files shown.

manic111 · 28 Dec 2011 at 14:26

How to you edit the build.prop file? It keeps telling me it's read only.

@haz_pro, find Root Explorer in the market.

Even better.

thanks

worked like a charm

I used ES File Explorer, in the settings you need to enable write by ticking mount file system. It then lets you edit.

BTW, the max upload size of a file is 100mb so it is useful for mp3s, photos, documents etc but not really for videos.

Nice it worked thanks for the heads up ^^

Should change the title to android users only really...

ps3ud0 · 29 Dec 2011 at 04:31

If this is similar to the HP Touchpad Box.net offer its worth going to the main website and checking youve actually got 50Gb as some didnt in the end (think default was 10Gb), even with a similar confirmation box as the OP...

ps3ud0 :cool:

EniGmA1981 · 29 Dec 2011 at 07:01

Just checked on their main website and it says the same as it did on the box app I downloaded yesterday - used 0 of 50GB

I doubt I'll ever use it really, but it's damn nice to know it's there if I DO need it for anything

By the way, I used the app in Locke's link - worked first time - thanks for the heads-up guys!!

This offer works on iPads also

I still prefer Dropbox however as the app works far better than the box.net one however

Looks like the app has been officially nuked. Maybe someone who downloaded it could upload it somewhere.

50GB apk

http://db.tt/ui3rIUjl

Uploaded via drop box as I couldn't really figure out how to publicly upload to box on my phone

Dangerous · 29 Dec 2011 at 20:46

What is the file upload limit?

Normally free Box Personal accounts have a 25MB upload limit, but we’re bumping it up to 100MB for this promotion in order to help you get the most out of your 50GB of storage. With a 100MB upload limit, you’ll be able to easily save pictures, presentations, audio files and documents to the cloud.

Still handy but only 100mb files is a bit poo

Kreeeee · 29 Dec 2011 at 23:51

I have split my cwm backups into 100mb chunks and stuck that on there just in case I'm stuck and need to retire my phone remotely and my sd card has gone pop.
