Manufacturer may resume shipping HTC One Mini into the UK
HTC UK has released a statement saying it's been granted a stay on the injunction preventing shipments of the HTC One Mini into the UK. This follows a High Court ruling earlier this month which found that a component in the device infringed upon patents owned by Nokia, resulting in an injunction against the handset. At the time any action against the HTC One, which was also found to infringe upon the Finnish manufacturer's patents, was delayed by the judge to give HTC an opportunity to appeal. With today's developments the HTC One Mini now finds itself in a similar situation.
HTC says it'll "continue to aggressively appeal" against the decision on the Nokia patent, while working with suppliers to source alternative parts.
We've got the company's statement in full after the break.
“HTC is delighted that the Court of Appeal has granted a stay on the injunction against our products. We will immediately resume shipment of all of our devices into the UK, including the entire HTC One family. Similarly, our customers should feel confident in their ability to promote and sell all HTC devices. Even though we plan to aggressively appeal the validity decision of Nokia’s EP 0 998 024 patent, we will continue to work with our chip suppliers on alternative solutions to ensure minimal disruption to our business in the future.”

HTC One ban looms as Nokia wins latest patent dispute
Nokia is one step closer to a ban on the HTC One and all HTC's Android smart phones after another legal victory in the British courts.
Foss Patents reports that Justice Arnold of the England and Wales High Court ordered an injunction against HTC in a battle over patent, but did give HTC the chance to appeal on limited grounds. The injunction has been delayed until Friday, the deadline for HTC to apply for a wider-ranging appeal.
Nokia won the first round of the legal scrap in October, with similar cases going on in six countries around the world. Nokia has called for a ban on HTC phones and financial compensation for each phone sold. As a ban looms, HTC is likely, however, to pony up some cash and settle with Nokia -- yet another financial blow for the struggling Taiwanese company.
"HTC is pleased by the decision of the High Court of England and Wales to stay an injunction against certain chipsets, including those in our flagship HTC One," says HTC, "pending the outcome of our appeal against the validity and infringement of Nokia's EP 0 998 024 patent. Whilst the Court also granted an injunction that affects other third party chipsets, we have filed urgent application to appeal. In the meantime, we are working with our chip suppliers to explore alternative solutions . As always, HTC's primary focus is on supporting our customers and ensuring minimal disruption to them and our business. Rest assured that our award winning HTC One handset will be available as usual."
The contested patent is EP0998024 on a "modular structure for a transmitter and a mobile station", which relates to the modulator technology in phones that transmits data. HTC argues the kit in question is part of the Qualcomm chips installed in its phones, and as such should be covered by a deal between Qualcomm and Nokia in the US.
“Potentially this is a further blow to HTC given the challenging year it has already had," says industry expert Ben Wood of CCS Insight. "But right now this will have little impact as any injunction is delayed pending appeal. Both sides will doubtless continue the legal fight, as these sorts of battles characterise the mobile device landscape more and more.”
As part of its evidence, HTC has also thrown rivals under the bus, claiming that Apple, BlackBerry, Google, LG, Samsung and Sony also sell phones -- or, in Sony's case, a tablet -- with chips that also infringe the patent.

Nokia wins UK injunction against HTC devices including the One mini -- HTC can appeal
Settlement pressure on HTC is increasing significantly after Justice Arnold of the England and Wales High Court ordered an injunction against various HTC devices based on EP0998024 on a "modular structure for a transmitter and a mobile station", a mobile phone hardware patent that he found valid and infringed by HTC'various HTC products including its current Android-based flagship, the HTC One, in an October 30 ruling.
The injunction is "final" as far as the High Court is concerned, but Justice Arnold granted HTC permission to appeal ("albeit on more limited grounds than HTC had sought permission in respect of") and a stay of the injunction "pending the judgment of the Court of Appeal". HTC has until 4 pm UK time on December 6 to apply to the Court of Appeal for permission to appeal against Justice Arnold's "refusal of a wider stay".
Nokia is asserting this patent against HTC in several countries and issued the following statement on the decision:
"Nokia is pleased that the UK High Court has imposed an injunction on certain HTC products found in October to infringe a Nokia patent. The injunction is stayed until December 6 to allow HTC time to appeal. Pending the appeal, HTC has undertaken not to ship any more of the infringing products into the UK, except the HTC One which it may continue to sell until the conclusion of any appeal. If HTC does not succeed on appeal, the injunction will take effect on all infringing products. Nokia is also claiming financial compensation for the infringement of this patent."
Nokia just received good news yesterday in the United States, where Microsoft's acquisition of Nokia's wireless devices business received fast-track clearance from antitrust regulators. I understand that the European Commission's Phase 1 review will also conclude this week, and I would be very surprised if this procompetitive transaction wasn't also cleared immediately in the EU -- the only logical outcome unless antitrust law is suddenly turned on its head.
Patent licensing will be a substantial part of Nokia's revenue opportunity after the closing of the Microsoft deal, and the dispute with HTC is an important one because Nokia faces an unwilling licensee of its non-standard-essential patents. It's SEPs are already broadly licensed. Its non-SEPs are not, so there is potential upside for investors in that regard. From an enforcement point of view both categories of patents present different challenges. HTC will only take a royalty-bearing license from Nokia at a point at which the latter has substantial leverage. Otherwise HTC will continue to defend itself in court.
Nokia is suing HTC in six countries on three continents (US, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Japan) and gaining more and more leverage, which is why we may see a settlement even before the end of the year. In the United States, Nokia won a preliminary ruling at the ITC over two patents, and the result could be a U.S. import ban against HTC's Android-based devices. Some organizations have raised public interest concerns in that regard, but if the ITC upholds the liability findings, an import ban is going to be almost inevitable. And on Friday (December 6), the Munich I Regional Court will announce a ruling on a German Nokia v. HTC case over a USB-related patent (not a SEP, but it appears rather powerful). At the September trial Nokia appeared to be on the winning track. I will also attend the Friday announcement.
The decision mentions that, according to evidence adduced by HTC, various other companies (Apple, BlackBerry, Google/LG, Samsung and Sony) "are also marketing phones (or, in Sony's case, a tablet) containing infringing chips in the UK".
Finally, here's today's order:

HTC One with microSD and dual-SIM slots is coming to the UK
Yep, you read that right: HTC has revealed a dual-SIM phone that also fixes one of our biggest bugbears with the HTC One
HTC has announced that a new variant of the One will be arriving in the UK and Europe, and it'll fix one of the biggest gripes that many people have with newer smartphones.
It's going to have a microSD slot.
That's right music and video hoarders, one of the best Android phones ever made will now have one of the two features you've been begging for.
This particular variant of the HTC One has already been available in China since April, and although the other long-craved feature - a removable battery - remains elusive, the expandable storage (up to 64GB microSD cards are supported), is still a very welcome addition to the One's innards.
In addition to the expandable memory, the newer One variant will also have dual-SIM slots, a feature that's predominantly stayed in the Asian market up until now, but one that could be useful for separating work and play without having to lug around two phones.
The new One variant also has its business hat firmly on, offering HTC Sense-enabled productivity options including Microsoft Exchange and Office 365 support, as well as on-board encryption, secure connectivity and remote data wiping.
The dual-SIM HTC One is available to pre-order right now, costing £495 for the 32GB model, from HTC's online store.
