Too much money in it for the government not to step in. Some money will be paid from android to apple but that's all that will happen if the patents are upheld.

I would laugh if Apple tries to sue Google for the several things they stole from android. Especially noted the drop down notification bar that I recently saw my girlfriends iPhone has the ability to do.
I hope Google tries to fight back on that stuff.

Why do bad things *apple* happen to good people *Google*.
Apple is pretty stupid to sue Google for what they created and improved. Apple is just a monopolizing S.O.B.
Apple is just a rotten fruit that will decay soon, I hope Google does something about this.

This is nothing new. Although Apple has made strides in their field, they try to kill off any decent competition in their market. They'll patent **** that shouldn't be patented and sue based on that. For example, suing Samsung for using slide to unlock. They're pretty pathetic overall. Apple will never decay, which is both a bad and a good thing. They simply have incredible marketing and brand management. That's why they can release something small like video recording on a brand new piece of hardware, and people will upgrade to it without hesitation.

Nice to see someone gets it. Apple is the largest US company by market cap. Not only the largest but as of right now it's 50% larger than second place(Exxon-Mobile). It's not going anywhere for a very long time. While it's tactics may seem dirty to the public this stuff happens all the time in the business world. That's why we have a patent office in this country. You can hate apple all you want but it won't make them go away. Their business model is second to none and they will continue to grow.

Companies are doing underhanded things in order to obtain an advantage over their competition? Tha-tha-that's not fair! My trust in huge, faceless, multinational corporations is forever shaken!

The same thing I said upthread. Sammi just has to pay out some cash. They're already appealing so it will take another year before the final amount gets hashed out. As it stands now Apple asked for 2.5B in damages and was awarded 1.05B. Android ain't going anywhere. Neither is Apple.

Android ain't going anywhere. But Sammy might.

Very cool 3D Live Wallpaper.

This is cool. Allows you to give any image a 3D wallpaper look. Looks awesome on the SGN10.1. Some reviews say it doesn't work on their tablets but works great on this one.

I tryed version from apkmania (for test purposes). This program is unstable, picture that I choose is not in full resolution, even if I set zoom on 0, walpaper is still zoomed. At the end, I decided to erase it from my Note 10.1.

Works perfectly for me. You just need to pic a photo sized correctly to work.
I can never get over people who complain about a < $2 app they would use every day on their $500 tablet. No offense but don't be so damned cheap.

I don't think it's about cheapness. Some people weigh value against cost. I'm one; it's not that I'm cheap, I spent thousands of dollars in electronics each year to satisfy my tech cravings.
However, when it comes to value then it is a different thing. I'm not into pretty widgets, themes, icon packs and live wall papers. These are worthless and server no purpose other than aesthetics, IMO. Even those low-weigh-on-CPU worthless stuff and even if my tablet has butt loads of spare CPU juice and super extra RAM; even if the software in question only puts a 0.1% load on my tablet I don't want it, even if it's free.
I've had this philosophy even back in my iPhone days, I've had most them and things like WinterBoard, low weight, pretty on the eyes, and free... I don't want it.
To each, his own. You have no right on telling people what to spend their money on. The same way we cannot critisize you for already having spent your money on this live wallpaper.
Thanks for sharing, I actually like to see those pretty things; just not on my devices.

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
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2

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

Damn it, freaking mods. I always liked to read and see ppls replies along with dbrands comments right before I went to bed. Freaking sucks =\

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:
I feel bad for the dude, sorry, forgot your name, that got the infraction for starting the post. Hope that won't be me

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.
