They are fierce rivals. They usually try to outfox each other and "steal" one more customer than their direct competitors. They'll battle each other for more a bigger bite of the market with a wide range of legal (and illegal) means.
Say what you want about the top-tier Android manufacturers, like Samsung, LG, HTC, but there's something that unites them all in a large-scale entente - their mutual "antipathy" towards Apple and its usual desire to enforce its patent rights to the fullest.
It looks like LG and HTC might have just joined forces with Samsung, Google, and a few other tech companies in their patent battle against Cupertino, which has been trying to force a sales ban of a number of allegedly patent-infringing Samsung products.
The smartphone makers are trying to backing Sammy and El Goog in their plead for litigation. Google, LG, and HTC, among others, even required for permission to sign an amicus curiae brief, which means that all of them want to willingly provide the court with testimony and information regarding the Samsung-Apple patent saga without being explicitly asked to by the court and Judge Lucy Koh, in particular.
Meanwhile, in Apple's camp, we see no major smartphone maker willing to back Cupertino in its patent-enforcing endeavors.
