Apple loses bid to ban Samsung devices in US

Apple loses bid to ban Samsung devices in US:


SAN JOSE:Samsung from selling 23 older-model smartphones and tablets that a jury found infringed on patents held by the maker of iPhones and iPads.
A US judge has denied Apple's request to permanently ban
Judge Lucy Koh said Apple Inc failed to prove that the South Korean company's patent infringement caused irreparable harm to Apple sales.
The ruling came as the world's two biggest smartphone makers prepare to go to court again later this month - this time over Apple's allegations that Samsung's newest devices, such as its Galaxy S III, also copied Apple technology.
The ruling stemmed from a 2012 verdict in which a jury agreed with Apple that Samsung had infringed touchscreen features.
However, Koh on Thursday denied Apple's request for a permanent injunction to stop Samsung from selling the products, saying she was not convinced those features drove consumer demand.
Apple has argued in courts, government tribunals and regulatory agencies around the world that Samsung's Android-based phones copy vital iPhone features. Samsung has fought back with its own complaints that some key Apple patents are invalid and that Apple has copied Samsung's technology.

What this means for curious Android users running  Android 4.4  and above is that you can install the Android Wear launcher on your device right now. As  Android Police  reported last night, the launcher isn't a complete replacement for your current launcher. Instead, it's more of a brief preview of how Android Wear will handle notifications. Swiping up and down on the screen will allow you to scroll through your current notifications. A swipe to the left will reveal options to for hand...

"Nexus 6" Google Nexus 6 Smartphone Built by LG

Google Nexus 6 Smartphone Built by LG – A Low-Calorie LG G3? Reports suggest Google will once again be teaming with LG to build its Nexus 6 Smartphone this year, which will apparently materialize as a stripped-back version of the LG G3 flagship For fans of the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 Smartphones, this weekend brings delightful if not entirely surprising news. Reports are doing the rounds that Google has once again decided not to tinker too much with a winning recipe and will thus be sticking with LG for the unannounced Nexus 6 Smartphone, which is apparently scheduled for a July launch. This time around, we have the folks atGizmodo Germany to thank for the good news, which largely confirms what the majority of us had assumed all along. Some had insisted that Google would tap into its Motorola wing to put the Nexus 6 together, but the smart money had always been on another LG collaboration and it’s looking like this will indeed be the case. In terms of exactly what t...
