Don't want to spend $60+ for the circle case, get this sticker for under $15 & keep your original back! Doesn't add bulk, but adds Qi Charging & keeps NFC working.
I'm confused, in your youtube post you or someone else states it works for an AT T G4 but the listing on Amazon states it does not.
Can you clarify?
Thanks

The upgraded version has bigger pins, some people were having issues with connection. Also doesn't need the little back sticker for a more secure adhesive to the back of the back cover.

Judging by this video.. Qi works with the Tylt Vu and the UAG case?
I have the UAG case, about to order the Qi insert, but need a charger, so I'm guessing the Tylt Vu is the way to go?

It's the most expensive, but works the best. You can also check out other 3 coil charger which are almost half the cost.

I kind of want to get one mainly because it does not need any tinkering with the device, just stick the receiver or position itself on top of the battery and close the back cover.

Yeah, works alright. Wireless charging is kinda limited to 600-700ma or if you tinker with some wires and solder you should be able to run around 1-1.1A of charging current.
To get wireless charging on the Verizon Note 2, you have to remove the back cover and solder 2 connectors or cut away the plastic concealing the 2 protectors - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slD48Zm_uBM&feature=youtube_gdata_player.

I think they are different. I got the SainSonic wireless charging pad and receiver for mySamsung S3, so far they workes well.
Yeah, it works well for me on my AT&T unit. Slow, but I use it overnight so it doesn't matter. I wish they would go ahead and release the damn OEM door already, because my charging pad comes loose now and then.

I have that but with the "Input: 5v -- 1000mA" model and it works like a charm with n7105. I understand that there is very thin 2013 model (color green) of the receiver that fits better than the one that we have. Just stick it at the back, secure the two metal connectors with tape so that it would continuously stick to the metal connectors of the phone, and it'll work.

I'm with you on wanting a new battery door. I hate the slight bulge on the back the charger coil creates. It doesn't affect the functionality but I'm a bit OCD so the fact that my phone is wobbly on a flat surface bothers the heck out of me.

Works fine with the AT&T version of Note 2, a bit slowly ofcourse. I sorta stopped using it after a while cos.. the phone seemed to need to slign quite well with the charging pad, and I'm used to picking up the phone a couple of times at night to see the time or web browse (only kidding)... and if you don't replace the phone properly on the pad, it wouldn't charge...
In the end, I realised plugging in the mini USB just before going to bed isn't as big a deal as I thought it was when I was ordering the wireless charging pad.!!
are you sure about soldering?

I'd be curious to hear your experience, I wonder how thick or fragile it is. I'd buy one to test but I am not in the US and would have to import it.
I ordered one a week or two ago. One of my wireless charging pads (which I didn't have any of, so I had to order a couple) arrived yesterday, but still waiting for the receiver coil. Hopefully any day now.
Edit: bah, I forgot, it's being shipped from HK; it'll be a while yet (the pads came from the US).

Awesome, I look foward to hearing your thoughts on it when you get it
They are pretty thin. I've never use one quite like that, but I used the external pads for the Note 2 that I retro fitted into my old Verizon Galaxy Nexus... and it worked extremely well.
I ended up hooking it up to the POGO pins and taping it onto the battery I had to do a little case modding to make it all fit in a normal Incipio Feather case (basically cut a back plate in half, but I had like 5 of them).
So it works really well. The problem I see here though is you are eating up the USB port all the time. With the thin profile cable, I wouldn't attempt to unplug it many times. Just leave it and forget it. Fortunately the G2 has a great battery. My Verizon G2 has this built in, and I Qi Wireless Charge every night.
The Coils are thin, but thick enough to forbid the use of a thin case like a Incipio Feather. If you use this, you are best off using a TPU case that is flexible.
player911 has nailed the situation. My plan is to 'switch over' entirely to wireless charging for the most part, and wifi file transfers -- I don't want to be unplugging/plugging the usb connector in at all. I figure one more charging pad (total 3) should do it... 1 at work, 2 at home kinda thing.
The eBay version of the amazon listing linked seems to suggest it will come with a case (the one pictured). I can't imagine why I would be asked to pick a colour otherwise black or white, when ordering. Yet both listings state "1 piece", so who knows. Will report what I end up with when it arrives. My S3 had the pogo pins so that you could use wireless or usb for charging but I never went that route at the time. The use of the usb port on the G2 did give me pause but I'm going to give it a go.
I would give it a go too. Perhaps temporarily until a internal solution pops up (bound to happen). Even if it doesn't come with a case, TPU cases are a dime a dozen.

Interesting. I look forward to hearing how these work.

It is working fine, however my battery is almost full, so I can't test now the current. I'll do it later.

Awesome, thanks for the pics! BTW, what charging pad is it that you have there, with the green and red lights?
How thick is the coil? Do you think it is possible to fit it under the back cover? Because I'm planning to do that and run the cable through a hole I want to cut in the back cover so that I can plug it in the usb connector.
Eh that isn't too bad. Looks fine IMO. Besides you don't really need to use the USB port with the Wireless Storage option (awesome feature) and Qi Charging.
So if the port is unused, the also acts like a port saver to keep dirt and lent out.
If you feel lucky and want to further reduce thickness, you can open that package up and remove just the coil. The packaging is basically a thick plastic sticky back that is folded over. Removing the outer plastic housing will cut down 1-2mm. Inside the hard plastic cover, there is the actual coil that is in a black square sticker. The Coil itself is round. On mine, I removed the outer shell and trimmed the unused outside area around the coil. Creates a smaller footprint and gets even thinner.
My goal with my Galaxy Nexus was to fit it in a hard Incipio Feather Slim Case. As it is, any TPU case should work though.

it is thin, but I don't if there is enough space under the backcover, I've never removed it.
I'm still testing it, if my readings are correct it is charging the G2 with at least 400 mA.
Now I've moved it to check how much does the positioning matter.
I've charged it from 50% to 100% using this stuff, it was charging with ~450 mA
Qi is a slow charge. I use mine for my desk and nighttime charging.

400-450 mA charging current.
I've ordered two different kinds, one is the same as Wizard7 that purports 500 mA output and the other purports 750 mA output. I've received neither one yet although according to tracking, the 750 mA one is finally slated for delivery today. But it has a longer cable that I'll figure out how to fold or contend with.
While I fully expected qi charging to be slower, I have to admit I hoped it would be faster than PC USB at least. It would have been a decent solution if I didn't "lose" use of the usb ports but I guess as long as it charges overnight, I can't complain.
Sooo which qi chargers do you guys recommend?

Ask and ye shall receive.. Sorry for the grainy pics, they were taken with an iPad Air. It's just so convenient to drop n charge. Haven't had to plug in for months.
A little further info.. I've got a bestskinsever matte body skin on the back of the phone, so i don't scratch it up.
Then I've got the qi receiver, and a slim steel plate that came with a magnetic car mount, all between the phone and the case. Somehow it all fits. Just the skin, and the qi would be no problem at all.
On top of all that, the new qi receiver I've got isn't black plastic. It's actually aluminum as well. So it should blend in better. Just never felt like swapping it around on the M7, so I'll save it for my M8.

I've used a few.. Here's my thoughts on them.
The Choe off amazon. Works ok. Has a blue light that flashes when charging. Which may be annoying to some, especially next to a bed.
http://www.amazon.com/UPGRADED-Wire...id=1396035442&sr=8-1&keywords=choe+qi+charger
I've also got the Nokia Fatboy.. the pillow case style, that just uses the standard nokia qi charger.
I DO NOT recommend this at all. It worked ok for a few weeks, then started just going on off, on off, on off repeatedly. No rhyme or reason. My Nexus 7 still charges fine it seems, but nothing else. It also uses a proprietary charger and cable, which is stupid.
http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-DT-901-...8&qid=1396035546&sr=8-2&keywords=nokia+fatboy
And then my favorite... The PowerBot
It's by far the smallest, the rubber ring works to keep the device in one place. It has a green led all the time, and blue while charging. but it's not bright and wouldn't be a distraction at all. It seems to charge the fastest, and it also has an audible beep, so you know you've placed the device in the correct spot, without even looking. Going forward, I'll be ordering even more of these. I currently have one at work on my desk, and I've put one in the fatboy pillow I had next to my bed. Many colors available, and for the price, seriously can't be beat.
http://www.amazon.com/Compatible-In...=UTF8&qid=1396035781&sr=8-2&keywords=powerbot
Then as a bonus.. I also have one of the powerbot battery backup qi chargers in gray. It's also very cool and was cheap as hell at 30 bucks. You can keep it plugged in, then take it with you for true wireless charging. Only a 7000 mah battery inside, but it does pretty well 1.5 to 2 full charges give or take. Has a battery gauge, and makes the same beep that the other powerbot chargers do. Also includes another usb port to charge regular devices.

Don't see why not.. And that one inparticular would probably have the rubber flap so you wouldn't even see the receiver at all. The distance through the case I would think would be fine. I've got an otterbox defender at home, I can try it later.

I don't have that receiver l linked, it's disappeared. I just linked the most prominent one currently on amazon, as long as it's a type B.
Had issues with the Nokia charger but the powerbot has been flawless.
Wow, this looks like the answer to all my prayers! I'm coming from the G2 and always loved the wireless charging. I have tylt Wireless charger on my desk at work and it is the best thing ever. I've been looking for a handy desktop dock but they're all crappy little ones that I doubt will support the weight. Is this thing a sticker or can it be put on and removed? I like the look of the phone clean and usually stick with clear cases.

On the m7 the NFC was the plastic ring around the camera. And this sits in the center of the phone so it's never been an issue. NFC works just fine.
For joe above this, the ones I've used don't have any adhesive on them. So they could be swapped around no problem.

Thank you for the info. I don't know how my endless Googling hasn't led me to this sooner. I already ordered

Pretty cool. Personally I can't own a phone like the One / M8 and put an ugly case on it and stick something to the back of that beautiful metal, but I get it :good:

When you solder to the flex board there are small metal pads on the circles. If you apply enough heat the "pads" come off revealing the solder points in which you can apply direct solder. Use a thin layer or the battery door will bulge.

At the risk of looking like a complete noob and being flamed, which charging pad do you suggest? Also, the link is to a replacement battery door. Im assuming that the wireless charger is attached in some way to that door and needs to be removed? Or is it just something that comes along with the door and sits inside the door like in your application?

Apparently you beat me to the punch on the charging pad you're using. Thank you for that as well. Further proof that patience IS a virtue
I ordered a "Black QI Standard Wireless Charger Charging Pad+Receiver For Samsung Galaxy S5" from ebay. Under 10 posts otherwise I'd hyperlink.
Hasn't arrived yet but seems like a simpler solution?
I applaud your commitment OP, but...
People, please, there is zero logical reason to do this.
Buy one of these:

or better yet, wait for the OEM wireless charging back:

My logical reason was because I had the parts and the coming soon of the official product led me to this 5 minute modification. Thank you.
Furthermore. I'd rather not wait 20+ days for delivery from Hong Kong for something I can get for $8.00 prime on amazon along with now needing to get a base charger after spending $18.00+.
Does this work threw a case at all? And is it magnetic like other phones with wireless charging built in?

For users in your area of the world those will work but USA has to suffer.
I've read people claim magnetic mounts can cause permanent damage to the Spen functionality and some saying Samsung reps even claim it's bad.
Have any of you used magnetic mounts on your previous Note phones? Any advice?
Also, some say their Note phone is already magnetic and can stick right on a mount without a metal plate attached to a case, like normal. Any experience with that?
This seems like an important issue to work out!
I for one, wouldn't want to use wireless charging with a magnet on the back of my phone
I have used a magnet mount with my Note 5(the magnet is not on the device just a metal card for the magnet to grab onto). I experienced no problems with my S Pen as a result. You have to get a good one though. Some of the magnets are not strong enough to hold a big phone. I had one from MPOW that worked well.

It wouldn't be on the phone, but the case. I use TPU cases that come off rather easily, so if I do get and use a wireless charger, I'd have to remove the case prior to using it. Glad you brought that up! Thanks!

Good to know. I have a mount already and use the magnetic card thing and have it stuck to my Pixel case. I will need a new plate, however. I imagine they sell those separately.
I am using this and my wireless fast and normal charging works just fine.

The magnetic piece is not a full magnetic plate but just an outer circular cutout that works pretty well. It also provides wireless charging on my S8+.
I use a 6-magnet spigen with my S8 w/o a plate and it would hold fine. But the Note8 fell off twice on this morning drive.
Been using the iottie magnetic vent clip on my Note8 since I opened it yesterday and haven't had any problems.
Does anyone know exactly where the charging coil is located on the Note 8? Any internal pics? If it is more towards the middle of the phone, then a metal plate may be used at the bottom of the phone to not interfere with charging, at least this is what i'm hoping for.

The only problem with the magnetic mounts is the wireless charging. They have a new Nano stick mount it comes in tomorrow from Amazon. I will test it and report back.

Because you have to have a piece of metal on your phone or on the case for it to work. The metal will block the wireless charging.

Have used a steelie mount on my previous note 5 for 6+ months, no problems at all. But no, you can't wireless charge because it keeps the phone to far away from the charger

Magnetic mounts and wireless charging do not play well together. Wireless charging is more important to me. Aside from that, all the "good" magnetic mounts I tried over the years were never strong enough to hold my phones for long. I buy larger phones.
I finally just bit the bullet a couple of years ago and bought Pro Clip mounts. They are not cheap but I'm not tossing them every 2 weeks for something better.
Got my Nano non magnetic mount in today and it works great. It feels like it is on a magnet. I live in New Orleans and the roads here are terrible and it never fell or moved one time. This is a good mount for those of us who want to use wireless charging. Got it on amazon look at my previous post.

My no date sticks to the magnet without even putting the metal plate in the case
