Boox Note and Dropbox: Save Files

[MadAstra]

This is a tip for those who, like me, decided to use Dropbox as the primary way to get files onto and off the Onyx Boox Note.

When you use the Dropbox app to get files onto your device, you’ll get to the point where you tap “Export” on the file and select “Save to device.” At that point, the file saving dialogue comes up.

On the left side you’ll see a dark, thick bar. That is actually where you can tap and browse through the internal storage of your device, though it won’t look like it. On the bottom right, next to the name of your file, there will be a blank area. That’s actually where you can tap to save the file, though it won’t look like it either. I believe this is because the font colors don’t show up against the background.

Here’s a picture to show what I mean. (Sorry, can’t figure out how to take a screenshot on the Note)

That is a bug in the Onyx ROM.
