I have installed emacs-dropbox in Android emacs. I finally got it working, but needed to do the following:

  • Create app in dropbox, as you already specify.
  • I then used dropbox_uploader.sh on my desktop computer, to generate a config file: ~/.dropbox_uploader
  • On desktop computer: verify that command "dropbox_uploader.sh info", and "dropbox_uploader.sh list" works.
  • I copied ~/dropbox_uploader to my Android mobile, and there copied it to ~/.dropbox in emacs home directory.
  • In Android emacs I access dropbox via "C-x C-f /db:[PATH-on-DROPBOX]". For example: "C-x C-f /db:" lists the top directory.
