Droid 3 and wireless charging....

I noticed in looking at the most recent Bionic pic's that there were prongs that indicated wireless charging capability....so of course I took the back of my D3 and I see prongs there too.....so I have to ask....does the D3 have the same capability?

yes, you can buy the charging pad and get the required back cover from Verizon.

Don't quote me on this but I believe it is also possible to use the moto inducting backplate with a Powermat or an energizer pad.

It definitely works. I have bother the wireless charging pad and the inductive battery cover from Verizon and it works. The only problem is that it adds a bit more thickness than even the extended battery cover.

This is why I have been holding off on buying one.. I have a powermat, but I don't feel like buying it online and having it not work, been waiting to check it out in store then be able to take it home and take it back if it doesn't, though like you said I also believe it is possible.. Looking forward to my local VZW store to get them in... They don't have crap accessory wise around me..

This is confirmed. I asked the Powermat twitter account if this would work and they said no.

Note 2 wireless charging

Does anyone have any information about a wireless charging option? I mean the s3 was supposed to have it but until now nothing and I fear for the note

Not yet aviable an im sure it will never arrive
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

Can you elaborate please? I mean the only reason I'm asking is for instance the S3 has been announced with it, so I guess the NoTe2 has the aptitude. plus as you can see on the picture there are two vacant connector pins which are quiet similar to the Nfc ones. It should be their purpose no?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2

We know the S3 was announced with it, but it still isn't available in most of the world. Samsung is being very slow about it, and seeing how the S3 does not have a proper one yet, the Note 2 probably won't see one anytime this century.

I found this on eBay.

That's a Palm Pre Touchstone unit, which you can buy for about a fifth of that.
S3 thread on the subject of wireless charging. Did it to my S3, worked fine, just made the standard back bulge a bit with the induction unit was all.

Was that post above confirmation about wireless charging built into the note 2? Strongly considering one if it had the same charging posts as the s3

interesting, but will this be slower than charge with usb?

Yes the note2 has wireless charging.
You just need the unit.

Since the Note 2 uses a higher mA rate, will the currently available wireless chargers be effective? It worked on the GS3 due to a lower charging rate I assume. I saw posts where people stated they used 1A chargers from prior devices and it hardly charged their Note
2 at all.
Edit - I just realized a few minutes ago, you can use the 2A wall plug from your Note 2 right? Lol

I wish there was a way to order those Qi coils! I live in the UK and there is nowhere I can find it in Europe :=(
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2

If the touchstone wireless charger charges at 1amp with its original palm charger, will it charge at 2amp if I connect the galaxy note ii charger to it?
Also wondering if I applied the palm coil to my note ii, will I be able to charge it wirelessly with the 2amp hp touchpad touchstone dock charger?
Mmmmm
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

The touchstone will charge the note 2 from 0 to 100% in about 6 hours. Most likely a different adapter connected to the touchstone won't make any significant difference

Seems the wait is almost over

So does this confirm then that the panel on the back of the Note II is ONLY the NFC antenna not a combined NFC and induction charging panel, as some people are claiming?
I did wonder what the other two connectors were all about, now it seems clear THEY are where the induction coil will attach if you have the official kit.

I just got this and already like it. It gets a bit warm while charging then turns off when it senses the phone isn't drawing anymore current. Works just fine with the Dual Pro case.

I have also had for about a month and love it. First wireless charging experience.
Fwiw I don't use a case on the G2.

Plenty of post on it. But I have a pair and love it. 3 charging coils works great. No issues with the g2 or n7 or my n4.

Do you have the VS980? Verizon's G2 is the only one with built in Qi charging.

Thanks I was just reading on that .... I have a D800 that explains it

After 1month, I finally noticed that the tylt charger does not fully charge the phone like the wall charger. My hypothesis is that it stop charging once it reaches 100% whereas the wall charger continues charging it.
Battery life isn't as good when charged using the tylt vs the factory supplied.

of the phone or the charger?
As i said..i went to verizon thinking i needed a phone replacement...but they put it on a wireless charger and it worked fine. But on the other hand it seems odd that something is wrong with my tylt charger because, as i said, it works fine with my nexus 5 and 7

Must be a phone issue or isolated tylt issue,
We have 2 g2s in the house and the tylt i think is the best wireless charger on the market.

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???

I would suggest the wcp-300. That's the one that i have and it works quite well. I have noticed that if i have my tpu case on the phone it charges a bit slower. So, if you have it in a case, try removing it.

I tried it without a case and no go. But it was a generic one I'll try the official one since its on sale for 20 on daily steals every other week
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app

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.

I contacted them and they told me "it isn't compatible with the g2" and they have a different version called the techmatte pod or something like that that works on the g2, but that makes no sense considering qi charging is universal. I'm not sure if I wanna try buying that one or not

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.

Can someone post pictures of the back without a cover on?

As the title says, Id like to see a picture of the back with the cover off. It would help me check for Qi charger compatibility.

You can look in the thread starting with, cunning Samsung for a picture. Also, the Note 4 is Qi compatible with a back cover that enables it. The stock cover does not.

yes I had one of those for my Note 3, got a cheap one on Amazon for like $12? It broke last week, just in time for my upgrade to Note 4. You get what you pay for!

I assume u need a note 4 only wireless qi cover since they changed the shape of the battery, to keep another revenue stream in place for Samsung & suppliers
