Wireless Charging Dock - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170961366135
I am planning to buy this as its costlier to go for each one seperately and also I have no time making one of my own.
One more reason to add is that the seller is the only one who ships to India.

Be careful. It looks like this auction is only for the cover, even though the touchstone charging unit is shown in some of the pictures.
As for wireless charging: 450mA limit kills it for me.

This seems more convincing:

Is there any model which will work with a case?
specifically

1A ! it will take double the time to charge than with the 2A stock charger ! no need for it !

This is the first I've heard of a limit. Where did you read or find out about that? I've seen wireless charging units that are 1A.

If you're rooted, type the following in terminal while charging and divide that number by 10. This will give you the mah.
Code:
cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_current_adc

anyone test these with a case on? Does it charge?

Just got the same kit yesterday (different seller though).
Charges at +/- 500Ma which is plenty in my opinion as I tend to charge while I'm working.
Does NOT work with any case I have, even the Rearth Slim but again, not a dealbreaker for me.

Wireless charging is inefficient. Expect about 300-700mah charging and 600-700mah is optimistic. With a case on expect charging to be on the lower end.

The stock spare battery recharger you can buy from Samsung only recharges at 450 at it seems to recharge my batteries pretty quickly.

I also found this on amazon UK for the same price. But idk weather its free shipping or not
but hey this looks too good to pass up
I saw that too but I don't think I want a dock that uses the micro usb, I think the risk of damaging the port is a worry, the micro usb port on my old HD2 is VERY dodgy after a couple of year of use, it also doesn't do any sort of audio output, which I know the Nexus 7 can do over usb, I am going to wait for one which uses the pogo pins and does audio out so I can just drop it in it to charge with no worry about the usb port and can plug it into my sound system.
Well I found one on amazon UK so maybe the other countries that have amazon will bring it in stock or ebay as well.

Charging my Phone using Nexus 7

I just thought i would try this as im going on a bus trip at the weekend and my phone doesn't tend to have very good battery life but i just noticed if you have a USB OTG cable and plug your phone into it with it's standard USB cable you can charge your phone via USB with your Nexus 7
Probably a bit of pointless information but i thought i would just point it out incase anyone else was wondering this like i was
Interesting, but then you have to charge your nexus because you just drained its battery. You can also charge your phone using the nexus charger without any damage to your phone.
He said that he is on a bus trip! Kind of difficult to find a plug on a bus...

This is good stuff... your phone is your main communication anyway (calls , texts , 3G/4G) .... you're on a long trip ... you got your Nexii with you but may not use it till you hit some reliable WiFi... why not use it as a booster battery till you get where you're going?? Handy little bit of info to have in a pinch for sure
That would be really cool if you could. The N7 has a 3900 MAH battery, right? If it does, it would be enough to charge a phone 2-3 times.

That's because it is 3rd party. Just like when the iphone 5 first came out and apple didn't release the adapter for it, people got it on eBay from 3rd party retailers.

Guys I would be skeptical about this. It is just the cable so you are gonna use the same charger transformer so it is not gonna charge any faster and 26 bucks totals seems like a rip. Also is this just for charging or can it transfer data? I'm gonna wait.

Once the OEM POGO cable comes out it'll cost about the same price. I'd wager it costs a little more because it's an "official" part.
As far as charging speed, it's already been found that the N10 is only pulling somewhere between 1.5 and 1.8 amps out of a USB 2.0 cable, which is a limitation of the cable itself and not the transformer. The theory being passed around the forums is that the POGO cable doesn't have the same limitation and can draw the full 2 amps.
Either way, leave us to check it out if you're skeptical. We're not signing any organs away. We know what we're getting into.

Never seen an app for it.
The only accurate way is to use an external ammeter. You could get a rough number using a household energy monitor, but that would include current used by the power supply
There are a few electrical engineers around this board, someone with a decent lab psu could graph the charging process start to finish

That's pretty much how all battery cases work. The cases themselves have a usb port you use to charge the case and phone at the same time.

Depending on your usage you may not need it. I had a Nexus as well, and used to charge it 3+ times a day. With the X so far I can make it though a full day without issue.

With my phone completely stock and having Wi-F ( never on Wi-Fi though)i, BT, auto brightness etc enabled all the time, I'm getting 4hrs screen time, 1 hour talk with 16hrs off the charger and still ending the day with 20%+ battery life. If I root, debloat and greenify, I'm certain I could get 5+hrs screen 2hrs talk and have more left in that same period... But I'm sticking stock for the time being as it's almost perfect the way it is.
With my sgs3 I'd have to fully charged it sometime early afternoon to use it this much.

Wireless Charging issue (maybe bad charger?)

Not sure if there's something specific you need to do but I bought a brand new techmatte wireless charger. The reviews were all great and I got. From Amazon. I tried it with my g2 and nothing. No matter how much I adjusted it it wouldn't work. The charger lit up when plugged in the wall but the phone didn't charge and the charger didn't show that it recognized a phone on it. I already filed a return since I just got it today but if anyone has any ideas and it works I can cancel the return thanks.
Ps. There's a video on YouTube of it working with other phones so maybe my phone is the issue???

the last bit of advice I can think of for the time being is that the Qi receiver for the phone is on the lower half of the phone. Sometimes I have to position it just so until it registers. Best of luck other than that with your new charger.
If this is anything like the PowerBot Qi charger I got from Amazon, you need to use the supplied cable. I tried to use what I had plugged into my computer at the time and it didn't quite fit right and was very loose so it wouldn't properly power up my Qi charger.

As far as I concerned, if it's truly a Qi charger it should work. Maybe you have a faulty unit and they don't have to eat the cost? I'd just return it and get another product. This is what I got:
http://www.amazon.com/PowerBot®-Ind...F8&qid=1398696518&sr=8-2&keywords=powerbot+qi
This works for my two LG G2 VS980 and my Galaxy Nexus 7 (2013). Make sure you use the supplied cable or you'll have a loose connection.
