Qi Wireless accessories - Galaxy S III Accessories

Just visited yijieneng over in zhenshen china to purchased these accessories, the prices are pretty reasonable, but as a bulk buy you can get them very cheap, bulk buy is like quanties of 100 to 300 depending on what items you buy.
Here are some of the items I have purchased, but still have other stuff to be sent over, as they don't have stock yet, will up date this thread when I receive them.
Thanks to MobNnovate for the video

which item.

The S3 charging receiver and charging plate.

How thick is it and how much?

How much for just the receiver that goes in the phone? I already have the Energizer transmitter.

Mobnnovate stuff was way expensive.. More then retail Samsung stuff here in America.
I would never buy from them.

be prepared that the samsung version will come with a battery cover which may be thicker, and most cases might not fit.

I found it on ebay for 35$ - search for word "S3 qi Compliant Wireless Charging Receiver".
what's your price for receiver and for charger pad?

actually it's USD40.25 shipped to the US, it's also the old version which is thicker.

Built-In Qi Receiver Galaxy S3
Just ordered a couple of these Qi Receivers, built into Samsung-Galaxy S3-like back door and is fully Qi compatible.They are simular to Verizon's Qi back door. However, it is not as thick (only added 0.04" or 1mm) and great fit for TPU cases/ Spigen Neo Hybrid, etc. This Qi back door charges perfectly even with TPU cases installed!! They are not modded with Touchstone or Powermat (neither one being Qi anyway) nor "homemade"...

do you have a link.

Verizon Qi :
Yes, in the USA they do for sure (about $37 for the backdoor alone - in their stores and website) - and their Qi charger is actually the " LG " Qi charger. Disadvantage: LG emits alarm when fully charged...not for your bedside charging method...

I would love to see a dock where the angle can be adjusted dramatically.
Any body have the detail pictures??
The standard dock is a waste of money IMHO. There is no micro usb connection to the computer so you have to unplug the power cord if you want to charge while uploading files.

Don't waste your time and money on the Standard Dock and Port Case
What garbage. The portfolio case will offer none to little protection, plus it will scratch up the unit with use. The dock is silly, no connections to the computer and places the unit at a very inconvenient angle. I'm not a happy camper. I'm going to check into the return of them.

Yeah I noticed that and decided not to buy. We need a third party dock that allows adjusting the viewing angle and a portfolio case that is not cheap and will allow access to the available ports and power button.
That Portfolio case scratched up my xoom! Grrrrr!!! I am warning everyone I know about that damn case!!
I just bought the black silicone gel case from the verizon store. They showed me the portfolio case, but it just looked soooo awkward and poorly made. The silicone case barely adds any thickness at all and looks quite nice. Since the glass on the front is good, I think i'm good to go with just this case. Also, it says on the box that it is compatible with the docks in case anyone was wondering. $29.99 was a little high in. Y opinion, but at this point it is the only viable case and I'm getting paranoid about my Xoom getting damaged.

Yeah, that one was a little perplexing. Theres a damn micro usb on the dock itself, but none to output to a pc... wtf
Best I can figure, they're using the microusb tip to add stability to the device when in the dock and that there probably isnt anything on the backside of the tip. Maybe somebody will crack one of these things open to see what the deal is...
All in all, I saw it as a slightly more expensive way to get another wall charger.
Does the OCNNSB25 coupon code not applicable to the Xoom accessories? I tried purchasing the the silicone case and hd dock, but the coupon code wouldn't go through. Any suggestions?

That is indeed disappointing. I was expecting at least a usb connection - that way there'd be some hope of debugging from a docked device.
Really. See how far $50 goes now. I only paid $30 for my X's dock which has usb (for charging, but not limited to) and hdmi. I thought that was too high for what it is really.
The cheaper dock, while handy, is not good for debugging at all. I'll use wireless adb for a while, but it shouldn't be this hard.

I'm using a generic holder which is now many years old, has served me through a few changes of phone (as has the car it's stuck to), and looks exactly like this one....

I have the official Samsung car dock on my xmas list and my cheap holder will suffice perfectly well till then.

Here's the one I ordered
Yeah saw that last night. that is eactly like sgt car dock i have, except for a smaller tray.
Seems sorta pricey- i got my sgt one for 39 before a 20% discount. order directly from sammy....
Fwiw the arm/suction aparatus on my sgt dock is rigid and didnt rotate. this really limits mounting options. . this oem gnote one looks like the same (just different tray).
. . . still looking...most of the universal ones seem to have lots of bulky clamping mechanisms. . .yuck. .

How bout that SGP car dock mobile stand that has a clamp and suction cup on its back? It's made for s2 and iPhone. But maybe the clap can extend to accommodate the width of the Note?

I've sent an email to them as well.
I got the answer that they do not have any plans releasing a holder for Galaxy Note, due to the fact that it has not yet been released.
I got the reply from Brodit on the 26th of October so perhaps they are now looking into creating a holder for the Note...
If anyone wants to email them to create a buzz/demand for the holder, please feel free to do so...
I guess the original car dock won´t work with the flip cover on?
I found another one at ebay:

I have been told by one supplier on eBay that the official dock is not compatible with the Note while encased in a gel type skin. It's the same story with the desk dock too. That's put a bit of a dampener on them for me, as they were both on my xmas list. However, weighing up pros and cons I'd rather keep the case on the phone than have the convenience of the official dock. A universal dock and a loose lead will have to do for me, which is what I'm using at the moment.

Official G Note car dock should have the micro usb plug on the dock itself so it's possible to just attach the phone to the dock and you get also the power supply without connecting manually the power supply cable . Finally they made it...

Car Dock
I've been using a bracketron vent mount with my galaxy S2 when I got my Note the mount was able to hold it horizontally but not vertically little too much weight up high. When I got the flip case cover I thought this would never work but to my surprise when put the flip top all the way over I can clip the case to the bottom of the mount and holds perfectly in the vertical position. The phone is still supported by the 2 feet at the bottom. The small clip that I used was from Home Depot think it was $.99. Pretty good temporary solution for me.

Wireless Qi car charger mod

Weekend project. Rip apart my WCP-700 Qi charger, remove the guts, and then integrate it all into the ash tray of my car. Here's how it turned out.
All mocked up, held things in with hot glue. Not worried about how it looks since I'm going to be covering it once the electronics work.

This is the 12v to 19v converter I used. Ordered a cheap cigarette lighter adapter from amazon to do the conversion. The WCP-700 needs a 19v (?) 500ma power source. The one I found output 19v, 1.5A.
Almost finished product, it all works with the exception of the cover.
Video of the final product! Wanted to keep the ash tray door and the 12v power source, I think I did pretty well.
That's awesome.. Great thing to have

Bought it off of amazon a few weeks ago, looks like they ran out I was looking to buy another once since I ripped this one to shreds. :\
Hah, looks like you won the race
Questions:
Did you use the Amazon charger that I put in the other thread, or did you find a better option?
You mentioned an issue with the N4. Was this position based, or do you think it's a power/signal issue?
Thanks!

1. I used the LG WCP-700
2. I think it's a little bit of both. The way the transmit coil sits in the ash tray, it ends up being a little crooked. I think the glass back on the N4 is just think enough to prevent it from working correctly. The coil I bought for my S3 is a tiny bit offset as it is, plus it only has a super thin plastic back to go through.

Used this one off of Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004J0Y87S/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00
Note, the plug is too large. I soldered all the connections so I wasn't interested in matching up the plugs anyway. The stock plug on the LG looks to be about 3mm OD, center positive.
Looks good, I'm not sure about having to press the phone down in there like that, I think that would scratch the sides at some point?
Other than that, pretty awesome. I liked my wireless charging mod, but I finally stopped using it because I wanted a protective case.

Here is my simple question.
Did you try running the Qi charger with a 12v input before doing your stepup to 19v?
I have read at least two people who claim that even though the input is rated at 19v it will work with 12v.
It makes sense to me that 12v would work since the output is only 5v anyhow.
I know your setup is all need already but can you or anyone else confirm if that is true or not?
Really quite interested in a mod like this but I don't really like the idea of stepping 12v up to 19v back down to 5v if I don't have to.
And I would also rather not spend the extra $12 if I don't have to.
Thanks!
Nice work! What kind of car is this btw? I like the layout of the center console.

qi wireless request

hi just received my long awaited qi wireless pad from china only to find it does not include the receiver part that fits over battery,bahh!!!
does anyone know where i can purchase one from in the UK ,Dont want to wait all that time again ,your help would be greatly appreciated .
sorry, but that seems to be the only choice unless you can find an ebay seller who sells in the UK.
You might want to contact that seller to get them to ship the receiver pad to you.
I would've suggested against getting the transmitter from them to begin with though. apparently the 2nd gen ones are picky and unreliable.

Something you don't want to hear, is these receiver are becoming unreliable just like the transmitter, with cases reported to either DOA or stop working after a while with some of the new batches, there are some good new, it's only a small %.
Apparently it's all related to rushed production with bad QC due to great demand.
Mostly with the name 'Charmlink' printed on the front label, so it's best to ask if there is warranty for them.
Another option for Canada and USA buyers, this guarantees no bulky look because it replaces a new cover for you.:good:

that's pretty slick. Should have been stock from Samsung so cases were built off those specs. I would imagine any case that fits well won't work with that cover. Still pretty sweet setup.
that back piece will not fit with any case whatsoever. It's a different size and you'll either have to mod the case or the battery cover.
The receiver pad by itself would add a slight bump that can be circumvented with a more "restricting" case like the otterbox or the ballistic sg

That's because the new case makes the phone thicker, but no bulk because the bulk is hidden by the thickness of the cover..... That's why ,out of all those pics in the Ad, not one shows what the inside of the Cover looks like....LOL...they are thinking it will scare buyers off...lol.,...

Samsung didn't and does not plan for the phone to be as thick as it will be with this cover on....Here is a Pic of what the other side looks like....now you get a better idea of how thick it is....They left the pics of the back off , out of the Ad for a reason....LOL..

got my Qi pad from Fasttech today. Ordered the 28th, shipped the 30th. Arrived today. Currently $14.80 shipped Also got the wireless charger from Nokia. $38 with company discount (otherwise about $50) from ATT or Verizon. Works like a champ.
Fun Facts
Fits under OEM cover. Small Hump, barely noticeable. (< 1/16 inch hump)
Diztronic TPU Matte Black Case fits great
Charges about 10% in 30 Minutes. Similar to plug.
NFC works fine. Zero issues.
for Reference, I am running DarthStalker X, Stock Kernel.
yup. the Qi receiver pad seems the be the best choice in terms of getting to put your own case of choice as well as not losing NFC at the same time.
I believe the charging speed is a little faster than usb but slower than AC (according to the receiver pad).
the more flexible cases seem to be the ones that can cope with the bump.
Could anyone recommend a trusted website or seller to by the charging pad from?

Thanks for the replies since those are my only options, do either of you or any one else recommend a brand of the charging pads? I know there's the palm touch stone, duracel, powermat and so on. But what would you guys recommend?

Looking for the perfect Qi auto Charger

Hallo everyone,
I just bought a Nexus 5 and I'm looking for a specific Qi Charger for my Automobile. I'm looking ONLY for a model that could be connected at the cigarette lighter receptacle, something like this one but with the Qi funktion. It would be perfect for me, someone knows where I could buy it?
I just made a Fotomontage und this is how it could be the look of the Qi charger that I got in my mind (of course with a Nexus 5 instead of the iPhone).

It's possible that it doens't exist a product like this?
There doesn't seem to be any kind of back to the cradle so can't even see if it's possible to make something for the coil. Would be brilliant if you could...similar to what I've been looking for.
Sadly I'm not an electro freak and I can't build it
I'm wondering how It could be possible that this product doens't exist in the whole planet...maybe are we wrong and someone knows one?

Maybe get an official Nexus 5 charger and a lighter outlet plug and fix something up with that. Since it has magnets in it, it should hold the phone in place pretty well.

I would suggest the official nexus Qi charger since it has adhesive capabilities so the phone does not slide off while driving....then find a usb cigarette lighter adapter to connect the charger to and you should be set. The nexus 4 charger has an adhesive surface and the nexus 5 charger has a magnetic surface to keep the phone secured to the phone.
I have not tried this...so use at your own risk but should work.
Something like this:

The nexus charger magnets don't seem to work with cases from what I've seen. I'm considering getting this dock and then attached the AirDock to the end. Bit pricey but should work well.
The solution i have came up with may or may not work for you since cars all have different interior setups.
So my set up consists of
-Nexus Wireless Charger
-Kenu Airframe Vent Mount
-Cigarette charger / micro usb cable
This works perfectly and not permanent in case you don't want adhesive disk on your dash or a suction cup on your windshield and have to reach for it.
Mount the well.. mount on your AC vent and then use that to hold the charger and run the cable from it to the cigarette lighter port and viola.
So far I've been driving with this for two days, using it as a GPS via Google Maps. Driving thru bad highways and still holding on strong.. Phone needs to be naked though.
Sorry.. I don't know how to post pics.. first time posting..
How about this? http://www.ebay.com.my/itm/LG-Car-M...LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e8d32a5ea&_uhb=1
I've been using the Qi unit WCP-300 for quite some time (since Nexus 4). Stable and solidly built.
Haturaya, those products got always a usb cabel, i don't wont a cable all over my cockpit, that's why a solution like this one would be perfect, with a Qi charger instead of a USB connector.
I was interested in this model, but isn't compatible with the Nexus 5 'cause this one got the USB Connector inverted...
F**k!
At the end I just gave up the reserch of this perfect Qi charger and I bought this one (modified in the order to fit the big dimension of the Nexus 5)
I hope to see in the future this same model but with Qi charger, I would buy it immediatly.
shouldn't need the clamps its got magnetic mounts on the back. I want one of those

How sturdy is the cable? Does it wobble around when the phones in there?

The clamp is there 'cause I broke the support in order to fit the Nexus 5 dimension.

It woobles a little bit, but I could say that it's enought stable to use the phone without problems.
I want a magnetically held up one.

Do you have one? I'm tempted to get one with this mount, but I've heard mixed reviews about how it holds phones in cases.

I have one. It works great, without a case. Can't say how it works with a case but it is sticky and they include magnetic stickers that you can use to make anything stick to the mount. I use one of those with my wife's Galaxy Nexus (only as a mount, not a charger in that case.)
