The problems of LG, Sony and Motorola are of their own making. One of the problems is clear marketing. Samsung has done a very good job with marketing the Galaxy brand so far. In 2012, you know the S III is the best Samsung phone. And SII is the second best. This is simple to understand, even though Samsung makes dozens of Android models. But if someone asks you which Sony phone should I buy: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony-phones-7.php http://www.gsmarena.com/sony-phones-7.php . Good luck with that. The consumer chooses to go with the simpler options of Samsung, Apple or even HTC. Sony in particular had(and has) some massive opportunities with deep Android+Google integration with their Playstation Network platform. But they continue to shoot themselves in the foot by throwing money at half baked phones. And dedicated gaming devices, which have taken a massive beating from smart phones.
