I'm a paying customer and contacted support. I informed them of this forum thread and the multiple users facing the same issue. I'll update everyone if I hear a resolution, but I hope Dropbox addresses the issue here.

Just unlink your device in the https://www.dropbox.com/account/security and add them again in the system. It start sync again with all files (existing files won't be touched, just re-sync it). No need to re-install! (Then If needed you can again exclude some files/folders.)
