You were given backup codes when setting up the account - you have to tick to confirm you received them when setting up. You cannot proceed without them. Once you get back in download them immediately. If you ever lose your phone etc. and thus cannot receive texts there is no way, at all, to get around that without the codes. Your account becomes permanently lost. 

 

If you dont have them and its still not working you need to contact support. Do so via www.dropbox.com/support. Do so while not logged in (possibly via an incognito window).

    Hi,

     

    Hope you have a good day!

     

    Whenever I try to log into my account, it shows as below even though I have never changed my phone number or anything.

     

    Two-step verification text message couldn't be sent. <a href="/help/364">Help</a>

     

    Please kindly help and show me to resolve it.

     

    Thank you!
