What I intended to say is : The metadata.db in the Dropbox server semms to be identical to the one in my laptop. CC fails both in my Android phone (Huawei) and my Android tablet (Samsung.
what about the subfolder structure in dropbox. right click properties to get a count of both files and folders.
does that match your source calibre library which is hopefully on a non-cloud, not-networked PC drive.

i found out the hard way that if you add files within subfolders to a dropbox folder via browser, the files do get uploaded but not always in the correct subfolders , thus you get a corrupt library as books are not where metatdata.db thinks they are

also, test with CC connected via content server and/or as wireless direct to your laptop over LAN,

there are 3 components in play: the calibre library installation, the cloud copy , and the CC app. you need to prove which one is faulting. best way is with tests that only use 2 out of 3 components

please try my suggestion of testing the alternative calibrebox app to help establish if it is an app problem or a dropbox issue
