How can I get a product mass produced? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone, I'm posting this in the general section because I think it gets more visitors than the questions and answers section. I have made a case in the accessories section and will be making more, but if people actually like them, how am I supposed to make more considering the amount of time and effort required? Thanks in advance, any advice or criticisms on the cases are welcome and I may ship one of the cases to someone for free so they can give it a test run.

So i looked at your product in accessories section. Is that the final product?

Oh. Sorry for the late reply I was a bit busy. No thats not the final product. I'm working on water proofing and making it more sturdy. Why do you ask?

I meant the design. Is that the final design? Because i think the overall design (visual) is still in alpha.

I may have misinterpreted you but do you mean about how it fits the device? If so then yes, it is not fully ready yet and I am trying to make it more secure and less shabby.
If you were taking about my design as in the creative side about how I decorate it the no, it is also not finished. Please tell me if I answered your question or not and thank you for the feedback

Smartphone Hardware Survey

Hello Everyone! I've created a Smartphone Hardware Survey on Survey Monkey to get people's opinions on items like buttons, form factor, memory cards, and screen size. I think it will be pretty interesting to see what popular opinion shows.
I've tried to be as unbiased as I can in the creation of this survey. In a few weeks when we've gotten enough responses to have a good data set, I'll update this thread with the results. Please only fill it out once. Thanks for contributing!
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JTSR5J9
note to the mods: If possible, I'd like permission to post this in some of the more popular device forums. Let me know, Thanks!
Completed the survey

Interesting survey^^
Completed it.
Everyone. Thanks for all the positive talk. Sorry I couldn't get those questions in at this time. The free version is limited to 10 questions. Maybe at somepoint this might grow a little bigger. We'll see what happens for now. I've got 11 responses so far. I'm really hoping to get over 100. We'll see if that happens.
Done :good:

I think you can do a survey with Google Docs ( don't know how, but I know there is a way). Try using it.

Done. Would definitely like more questions. My personal stake is audio quality and GPS.
For all those wanting more questions, I don't want to add on so as to keep the results consistent. However, if this is successful I could do another one down the road.
FYI, we've already got 21 responses!!! That's awesome!!

OTTERBOX! Let us all let them know!

Ladies and gentlemen!
Otterbox for now is refusing to release a case for our phone.
Let us all let them know that there are a lot of us!
Here is their twitter account:
https://twitter.com/OtterBox
Who said Otterbox is refusing? I just got an email reply from them last night saying it's in design production.
We are currently working on a case for this device but do not have an ETA at this time. We recommend keeping an eye on our website or Facebook page where we will be sure to post more information as soon as it is available. You can also sign up for our email notification to be among the first to know when it becomes available.
Please feel free to reply to this email if you have any additional questions.

Not looking good...
But Seidio is making cases for the N4, which are similar to the Otterbox line. I will try those out as soon as they are released.
@op I deleted your thread in general.
Please do not create duplicate threads about the same thing.
Carry on
Seido cases are much better

Judging by the staggering idiocy of following Apples idea of putting glass on the back of the phone, I'd be more concerned about if/when Tech21 are bringing out a D30 case for the N4

Don't know why we have to convince a company to make money. Those geniuses should have had the business sense to know it would be a hit and have had cases out DAY ONE. They would have banked hard considering the complete lack of competition.

I know I applied it wrong, I know it was meant to be dry application but I prefer to do it like this cause I can still move it.. I'm more used to it like this...
No need totcall me idiot or whatsoever..

To move a dry screen protector, apply it using two 'handles' made of tape. Lift it and move it to your heart's content. Or use the hinge method.
I'm not saying the protector you got is any good, we might never know. But your review is kind of pointless. It's like painting a car with a paint roller because you're used to painting ceilings, then saying the paint sucks because your car looks like **** now.

But it really doesn't point out why you shouldn't buy it. We don't even know that it's crappy since your conclusion is based on improper use.

'You're doing it wrong' isn't very harsh. OP doesn't help the situation when he says 'I know I'm doing it wrong, that's why this thing sucks.' Definitely the wrong foot all around.

It was not because I applied it wrong that it sucks right? What's the matter with me applying it in a other way? It didn't **** up the screen protector nor made it worse -.-

The Big Off-Topic Thread

Hello!
I thought I'd make a big general thread for people to say unrelated stuff or whatever. Of course, people can ask questions about ROMs or kernels or whatever.
Let's all try to help each other out here.
Thanks!
Oh I would love it if the mods let this one stay! There's a big and popular General Thread in the S3 section that's remained unlocked because we police ourselves well there ^^

I sure will. I chose the low-cost shipping method, though, and I won't have it until at least 5th of July. I didn't wanna spend 50 euros (70 Aussie dollars) just for shipping.

Just a mild warning on this thread, as with the other off topic threads we will allow it to remain unlocked as long as no major forum rules are broken (ie as Theshawty said, police yourselves). Breaking major forum rules could result in this thread being closed (look at the Galaxy Y off-topic thread and you'll see what I mean).

Just checked the live Samsung updates page and it seems the Orange-branded Spanish firmware has the highest changelist so far: 779953 and it's an MF4 build. PDA version is lower than the unbranded Spanish release MF5, though.

That's what I thought, but I wanted to make that statement in this forum so others could see that it was okay to post on their new skins. I love the company and will miss FemBots contributions, but I see why, totally.
I got my mahogany skins this weekend and am very happy with the looks of them. I'd recommend them for sure.
That thread was live for so long, and they only now decided to close it? lol
Yeah, I don't get the mods sometimes It's not like the bots were spamming every single thread. They had one of their own and that too started not by them but one of the guys here. I don't see what's wrong in a accessory company representative being active in the accessories section. It's like closing the N4 forums if someone from LG were active here.
That's what sux about xda... Instead of moderating the thread... Which had great info and great community, they just deleted it... Thread wasn't started by dbrand , they were supporting their product. With helpful info and customer relations... Dbrand just showed up and actually participated... Was no different than the 15 other threads under accessories that showcase the accessories

I myself enjoyed the feedback from the company as most times, we buy stuff from some company and never ever interact with them. This company gave us a face/image to interact with and was by far the coolest I've ever seen. They also gave us sneakpeaks at stuff coming up which gave, in my opinion, an exclusivity to XDA. Alas, we move on.
Why and I was about to show people my new skin when I got it.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4
Really? They closed it just because Dbrand had an account and posted replys to people in the thread? Sigh. XDA, you're going downhill fast.
Anyway, to the point, I love Dbrand skins. They're a great value, look great, and last a super long time.
Yup.. They do crap like that to devs too.. Makes you wonder if one of the "moderators" works for the competition

Yep I started that thread. I don't even know how long ago but it had to be at least 6 months ago and I received an infraction for it just the other day when it got closed. Not sure why when my post was no different than anyone else trying to share an accessory.
Sometimes I wonder about moderators decisions.
Just ordered one and liked to see pics and I liked that they responded to some of the comments come on mods why, I know its a rule but there skins are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From what I heard.

I see no reason we still can't brag about our purchases. We're not working for dbrand, thus not selling them. We're just sharing what we have on our phones. It's no different than posting a screenpic of you phone, or pics taken with your N4. So, I say, let the pic posting begin.:good:

There seems to be no consistency with what the mods will and won't delete, just seems like an off day. And even so, deleting the whole thread is like cutting your hair with a lawnmower. Totally unnecessary. I know nothing I say will change it or bring the thread back, but I think it's reasonable to voice an opinion.
That thread bought value to users as well as dBrand, I don't understand how negative an impact the mods saw from it, but it must have been significantly more than I did.
