I had this exact issue on my EVO LTE and was never able to figure it out. I've logged into dropbox via the app itself, as well as made sure it's an online service to be included within the gallery app. When I select dropbox in the gallery app though, the only folder displaying is a "sample album" folder. Was really hoping to take advantage of the integration in the gallery app for ease of viewing and accessing photos. Other online services like Picassa work fine, no issues. Any ideas?

Works on mine. See a dropbox album on same screen as picassa and flickr. Open the album and the pics are there. Not sure why yours is not working. Perhaps the phone has created a new drop box account and that is why you are seeing only samples?

I've unlinked my dropbox account, then re-linked, and still nothing. Can't be a coincidence that it never worked for me on my EVO either. Just wish I could figure it out!

If you just open the dropbox app, do you see all your stuff?

One thing, the gallery only shows two folders for me, the "Photos" folder and "Camera Uploads".

Yeah, everything is accessible within the dropbox app itself. There's just a disconnect between my account and the gallery app that remains a mystery.

I don't have camera uploads enabled, but all photos in my other folders that I've created are there when I open them within the app. Essentially, the app is fully functional, there's just no communication between my dropbox account and the gallery despite going thru the setup of my account in the gallery app.

I am trying to tell you that the gallery only syncs to 2 folders (and any subfolders). "Photos" and "Camera Uploads". The folders within the dropbox app actually have little gallery images on them. That is where the gallery looks for pics. If you don't have any in those folders, they won't show up.

Try moving some photos into those folders and see.
