Hi, I see that there are several threads for wireless chargers, but most discuss flat pads. I want a dock, where the phone is tilted. I have found two so far:
Tylt (http://www.tylt.com)
Nexus orb (not available, and it seemed to get many bad reviews).
I also want a car holder which charges the phone wirelessly. It must be possible to operate the phone while driving, and ideally, it should support other phones as well.
Any other recommendations? Is the Tylt best fit for desk charging?
Not sure how i'd feel about Tylt either. Not only is it quite expensive ($70), but i find it odd that a company would create a promotional video saying "Place your device in any position to charge", and when they lay the phone on its side, it's clearly NOT charging, both by the message saying so, and the lack of the charging symbol on the battery icon.
I spent the whole afternoon looking into this.
There is the Nokia CR200 and then a couple of generic, Chinese sourced ones (which does not look elegant)
I am currently considering a "home assembled" one consisting of
1) a flat wireless charger (like the Zens)
2) mounting using Tetrax for both the phone on the charging pad and the charger on the dash somewhere
or 3) a bit of Velcro (but would not look elegant

PLEASE Please Don't operate a phone while driving.
The angle on the Tylt seems too low and the lip on the bottom seems bigger then it needs to be if you want to use the lower portion of your phone in either orientation. If it can't charge in landscape mode that's also a big problem but I can't confirm that.
There's a few more idea's in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2518703&highlight=charging+stands

If you can manipulate a radio, you can manipulate a phone. Changing a song is a flick of the finger, don't exaggerate everything in the name of political correctness.

Thank you for the consideration. I would never text etc while driving, but I would consider accepting a call just as safe as operating the radio. Of course, I have a built-in BT handsfree.

Any suggestions where to buy a good support for car specific for i5800?
This cheap universal holder does well in portrait mode. I use the air vent mount, it is pretty robust.
dont know about car specific, i bought one similar to the above post from media-markt, rotates to landscape view etc, any smartphone holder should do the trick, havent seen any with a dock function yet..... although its just a mini-usb connection, maybe someone out there has made one?

you need:
-A phone. (In my case now is the Samsung Galaxyi9100)
-A cradle with 3.5mm audio output jack to be possible (which also charges a second battery and operates in Clock, so when you connect, a screen type alarm) in the i9100 this only does the original cradle Samsung
-A car radio with Aux input "external input" (I installed a radio that has Bluetooth, because you don't need a connection 3.5mm audio output jack on the cradle)
-Transformer 220v to 12v AC continuously. (A PC power supply would be enough, but get yourself a power supply silent)
-Several speakers (I had them at home, they were in an old car)
-MDF 10mm thick (thicker more weigh the furniture!) (This measure 27 centimeters W x 110 centimeters H x 20 centimeters deep, but it depends on your preference depends on the speakers you put course!)
-Wood screws 2.5 milimeters x 20 milimeters approx.
-Tools: jigsaw, drill, several screwdrivers.
-Take time, patience and desire to do it!
-I finished covering leather fabric (imitation leather) by the front and sides, black paint on the back. I also added some wheels.
-The speaker grille is made of a wood strip of 1.5 milimeters and a thin black cloth stapled wood and some nails.
-The Bluetooth radio show the title of the songs played on your screen. The remote control is great to use sitting on the sofa.

Amplified has a problem: power Amp.
The power supply for home is low amps.
A car battery works with more Amps.
Amplified you have to install a very expensive power supply.

dude that's some truly nice work, great idea
Awesome idea! I have an old deck in my basement, now this gives me an idea.. lol
I noticed that you transformed 220v down to 12vac.. Next question is, did you put in a bridge rectifier? To go from ac to dc? I'm pretty sure most car stereos are 12vdc. I would hate for you to smoke that awesome setup using ac, instead of dc. I might just pick up an cheap pc power supply to run my deck, its a shame that the higher current dc power supplies are so expensive, i would add my amp and sub into the mix to make a really sweet setup.
Guys and Gals,
I found two extended battery cases, currently sold only through Hong Kong distributors, which really tickled my pink ...
Here's the first: supplemental 3200mAh battery built-into an integrated back with front flap and metal kickstand.

Here's the second: supplemental 2600mAh battery built-into an integrated case with front flap and metal kickstand.
I ordered the second one and should have it by the middle of next week.
The primary difference between the two seems to be the connection between the phone and the battery (the first is constant, the second is on-demand) and the increased side/corner protection offered by the second case.
They are both available on eBay ... I'll let everyone know how my purchase experience goes.

To you first question:
No, because it looks like both battery cases have a discrete power button -- which means your primary battery only gets 'recharged' when you activate the secondary battery. I have heard that constant-on secondary batteries cause this problem, though ...
To you second question:
I'm not sure if the case enclosure or size would inhibit either of these. I can try when the case arrives and report back ...

I too am curious as to whether NFC still works with those cases since a battery with metal will be obstructing the NFC chip in the OEM battery
No link? Really?
Hmm, it's an interesting alternative to something like this http://www.amazon.com/SlimTalk-Micro-USB-Flashlight-Smartphones-Sensation/dp/B0054U6CEE/
Might be something nice to use on a flight so you can game or watch a movie and still have battery left to call people when you land

I just looked at a bunch of these ebay. For one thing they spelled Samsung wrong on the rear cover Sanmsung ha!
They also all seem to have a max charge rate of 500mA, which means if you are really pushing your phone (nav, videos, etc) the battery won't be a to keep up with the discharge rate.
Seems like a waste of money unless something higher quality comes along.

The one that the other guy posted only includes the case for $34. You have to buy the mat seperately. The one I found comes with both....but I'm sure that the quality isn't as good though.
that powermate case looks fat!
This is not exactly wireless, the four tits on the bottom of the door contact the bars on pad to charge. I have the qi wireless door from Verizon and the energizer two position pad. It works great but there is supposed to be a update that will increase the distance it will charge. Thus most cases will not be a problem. The current one is about 5mm I believe and suppose to be going to 40mm. Distance between the door and charger. Goodluck
See the Galaxy sIII shine via SynergyRom
Hmmm...... I don't think the quality on that thing would be very good, $55 seems pretty steep, I'm pretty sure you can get something of better quality for cheaper or the same price.
well.. technically it's wireless...... since it doesn't require a plugging on cables.... but yeah.. it's just one of those with contacts....

Yeah it looks like the power runs through the power mat on those metal strips, and the contacts on the back case make a connection with that. Doesn't seem very safe or efficient, plus those contacts on the back of the case seem like they'd scratch the powermat strips, and if you look carefully on the bottom right of the first picture it looks like that may be the case, could also be writing or a reflection or something else too.
I think the price doesn't justify it. I'll stick to wired charging and wait for a phone that includes wireless charging out of the box.
wireless
This is not Qi(only way to go) nor Powermat (not bad, but not Qi...yet) nor is it inductive charging. It is CONDUCTIVE (Duracell) and useless...In this case, use a USB cable instead
I hate to play devil's advocate here, but by using this type of charging, the only thing you're doing is reducing the number of inserts/removals on your usb port thus having it last abit longer... but these things are also rated for 50,000+ insert/removal cycles so it's kinda hard to use these devices long enough to go over that limit.

You're completely missing the point. The main idea is to increase convenience, which this does big time. I don't care at all about the longevity of USB port.
That said, I bought a Verizon pad for $15 on eBay, and am now trying to find a stupid charging cover that isn't made in someone's kitchen. Finding the latter is the hard part.

i'm not missing the point at all. The convenience factor is implied with that. There is no other real reason for you to get wireless charging.
What i'm saying is that it's an added "benefit" for this specific charger.
Also, send a PM to kms108. he's selling the receiver pad for the Qi chargers.
I'm buying the Nokia chargers as soon as I can find one hopefully this weekend seeing that the Nokia lumia 920 is released on Friday. I have the Qi receiver and it works great on the LG (Verizon Pad) just want something more appealing. They also say that the charger is more forgiving on where you place the phone do to new technology from Texas instruments.

I have tried CHOETECH T511 before, basically speaking, this T513 is very like the T511 that they released on 2013, same carve on the pad, same smooth feeling when i touch the pad, and same led indication when connect the power source on. The LED light is smaller and less bright than T511 square version, this is a small improvement but according to the review of T511, this might compliment many buyers who want to use it in bedroom, and it has no sound beeping like the old version.
2 improvements:
1. The design is more fashion with shining silver side, add some element of metal.
2. The solution has 3 coils inside, it makes the charging area much bigger than 1 coil solution. Any place on this pad is the sweet spot so you can just put the phone on the pad and it starts charging, very convenient.
This pad seems too smooth to place the Nexus 4 like the old version, if the table is not very flat, it will slide a little bit. But it has no problem of draining battery after charging complete. And it generates less heat than most other brands, never higher than 104 °F.

I have the one coil version with no problems. Got it for $25 if I remember correctly so i'm not complaining.
I owned one of their earlier devices. It wasn't bad for the price. However, compared with the official Google Nexus Wireless Charger, there were some serious overheating issues associated with the Choe.
To be specific, my device would heat up to about 50-70 C (depending on how long I'd leave it on the charger), when my device would be in deep sleep. I can't imagine how hot it'd get if I was texting or using hangouts intermittently while trying to charge it.
Also, with the choe, I found it annoying that my device slipped all over the plastic top and not easily finding the "sweet spot."

I've got 2 choe chargers. Can't remember the model but they work great. No over heating and placement hasn't been an issue.

Anyone having this problem?
I got the T513 based on a recommendation that I saw in a Verizon Note 3 "Wireless Charging" thread... for the intended use of - you guessed it - wirelessly charging my Verizon Note 3. The reason it was recommended was due to the larger size of the pad (large phone needs a large pad so it doesn't fall off), and the 3 coils.
Today was the first day that I've used it at work. I put my phone on it (blue LED came on), and when it got to about 98% battery level, it seemed like the charger would turn off (LED turned off), my phone would wake up, and then charging would start again (LED came on)... and would repeat this cycle about every 30 seconds.
Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
It seems like my phone is saying "OK, I've had enough charging" and ending the charge connection, which is then re-activated within seconds, only for my phone to say it's had its fill again. Weird.
I really don't want it to do this. I don't mind so much at work, since the phone is in plain view, and I can take the phone off the plate when I see it start to cycle like this. However, I'm curious if this same thing is happening while I'm charging my phone at home while I sleep.
