Sources say Omnicom Media Group’s PHD is already handling HTC’s business in Hong Kong and India, while the business still officially resides with AOR ZenithOptimedia.

Last year, Taiwan-headquartered HTC awarded its estimated US$40 million media and digital business in China to ZenithOptimedia and Digitas.

HTC launched its smartphones in China late 2010, and debuted a new range across the region to coincide with the launch of Microsoft's Windows Phone 7.
