The app automatically switched to "Work offline" mode when no network available.
After that I tried to sync it manually, it says "uploading todo.txt..." but no actual changes appears in the dropbox file.
It started to sync again only when I go to menu and manually switch "Work offlne" off.

So, it would be nice, if (a) the app automatically switches back to online mode when any network connection became available, (b) in "offline" mode it DOES sync when I tapped to the sync/refresh button.

Using HTC Hero with Android 2.1 (official).

Thanks in advance.

I have this same bug, Nexus One with CyanogenMod 7.0.3.

I noticed this as well (and implemented the same "features" in the iOS version).

When you tap the sync button, it dutifully sends the message to the lower level code to begin the sync process. However, the low level code refuses to sync when Offline Mode is enabled. Either the offline mode check should not be done in the low level code (if it can be done higher up), or there needs to be a way to tell it to sync no matter what the state of the Offline Mode flag is.
