Mantano app asks for one-off permission to access dropbox and pops up a screen to input dropbox credentials. it must then hand those off to silk browser for some one off process and silk pops ups with a gobbledygook URL problem.

copy/paste of that or temp change of default browser works around the issue, but I suspect that the way that amazon cache all silk browser traffic gets in the way of the token processing.
It could be that silk cannot directly access dropbox but I worked around the problem, rather than spend more time on it.
( I didn't really need mantano to dropbox link anyway, I was only testing it out of curiosity! ; I would use CC to dropbox though hence the heads up for specific Kindle device testing )
