The Dropbox OAuth app authorization page should only be processed in the user's system browser. Using a web view is not officially supported, so I'm afraid I can't offer help with this. 

That said, Android 4.4.2 itself is relatively old and I believe is itself no longer officially supported by Google, so you may want to look into upgrading to a newer version. Or, at least upgrading the version of Chromium used in your webview, if possible, as that may help with the issue.
