        This is great news! HMD also needs to acquire the remaining Nokia mobile assets and factories from Microsoft, including the Microsoft Talo (previousely Nokia House)! Additionaly, HMD must revive the very highly succesful Series 40 software platform (for non smartphones) because the Series 30+ was made by Microsoft and Nokia, and of course, Series 40 is purely Nokia and far superior than Series 30+ !

                  Well microsft are still acting like jerks even after they stuffed nokia up.

                  I always wonder what nokia would have done if MS didnt aquire them.

                  Anyhow I hope they relinquish the clearblack and pureview patents bwcause thats what I want to see on the next leading edge nokia

                    Secondly, C3 and C5 ran on Series 40, not Symbian.

                      sounds interesting
                      when you say transfer do you mean like for free
                      or some kind of payment like preinstalled ms services

                          Anonymous, 27 Jul 2017so hmd is not licensing nokias tech, they are trying to eat... moreNo , HMD has licenced all other patents from Nokia .. These are just some design patents which Microsoft bought .. Nokia doesn't want to invest anymore in Phone business directly and take the risk ( after surviving near death because of phones ) hence HMD is financing these stuff... otherwise there would be no need of HMD ...

                          don't forget Nokia is a board member of HMD and has rights to deny sub par quality phones..

                          if HMD business starts becoming successful , Nokia may just buy HMD later..
