Google has failed to overturn a
Russian ruling that said it broke competition laws by tying together its
Android services to ensure its apps were pre-installed on smartphones
and tablets.
The original case followed a complaint by its Russian rival Yandex.
Google had denied forcing device-makers to install its YouTube, Maps and Photos software alongside Android.
It now faces having to reword its contracts with manufacturers and paying a fine based on its local earnings.
However, it can still lodge a further appeal against the Moscow arbitration court's ruling.
