I have.
I suppose it depends on the case though.

Yes. Works fine with the diztronic tpu, and ringke slim. Sometimes depends on how good the charger is though...

Yeah, mine works fine with a Spigen Neo Hybrid and the Tylt Vu charger.

Depends on the case and charger design, as in how thick the coating plastic is on the charging pad, and how thick the case is.

I have this VENA Ultra Slim Fit case (much like the Griffin case I had on my Moto X 2013) and have had no problem charging with the Anker slim Qi charger. I love both of them, they're great. I'm actually thinking about making my own nano suction car dock with it.

THanks for the replies guys. Has anyone tried with a Ringke slim?

Works perfectly with my Spigen Ultra Slim Fit.

Was already mentioned that they had earlier in the thread, but also so have I

Yes I did, because I answered that exact question above...

Which qi pad are y'all using?

No problems here with Spigen Slim Armor and Itian A6 (at work) and "TechMatte Qi-Enabled Charging Pad" (at home), both of them works great!

Tylt Vu now but also have a Nokia DT-901

Had the nexus charger that works great with the n5 but it's crap with the nexus 6. Now have the tylt vu which works great with the casemate case on the play store

I have a moco case, thick rugged case 2 piece with a kickstand. and a nokia DT-900 charger. Works great. Charger was bought for my n4 long time ago and didn't work with it. Tossed it in a drawer as I haven't had an induction phone since then. Must have been the n4 because I was pleasently surprised to see how well it works with the N6. Has to b on it pretty much just right, but i hit it easily. Kind of a pain when it hits 100% for a bit. Turns off charging, drops to 99% as soon as it shuts off and toggles on and off a bit till it gets a good enough charge to hang at a full charge. Notification alerts each time it stops and starts charging.

Cases That Work With QI Wireless

as the thread basically says it all, I'm looking for a case that will work with QI wireless charging for the G4. i like the spigen stuff but it doesn't appear to work...

I have been using the newisdom upgraded chip and tylt vu charger combo and havent had any problems charging with the spigen neo-hybrid, verus thor and urban armor gear cases.

The Spigen Air Cushion Slim Armor case works with the NeWisdom upgraded Qi chip without any issues with my CHOE Stadium Qi Wireless Charger.
The Diztronic matte TPU case works too

Supcase beetle (black with frost center) and new wisdom qi sticker and Nokia fatboy 3 coil qi charger.. NO issues here

I've got the Spigen Slim Armor case, with a generic wireless sticker and have no issues with wireless charging with either my Itian 3 coil charger or generic puck.

Youd have better answers to the question, "which dont don't work with qi".
Because most will

Interesting. I have the Diztronic case you're talking about and the same charger, but a Yootech receiver. It works fine without the case but won't charge with the case. I've also tried the first version of the Samsung charging pad and it's the same result so I guess I can call it the receiver.

I have no problems using the CHOE Stadium Qi Wireless Charger with the Diztronic case either. I purchased my QI wireless sticker from ebay. Shipped from china or something, not sure on brand.

Any leather back-cover (like the original one) that works with QI charging WITHOUT needing to make the "sticker modification" to the shell?
If not, what is in Your opinion the best wireless QI charging sticker for LG G4?
Thx!

this combo did NOT work: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NWMI07S with http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V51QOXA. its VERY finiky

I have the Spigen LG G4 Neo Hybrid Case - works perfectly with a wireless charging back ... charges quick and doesn't heat up.

As far as I know there is no official leather cover with qi. Nevertheless you can buy some from china with attached sticker.
I've attached a sticker on my own leather cover and it worked approx. 2 days perfect. But since then no connection and I wasn't able to fix.

Qi charging lg g4
I just cut the front door off a quick circle case and put g4 in a bumper case. Works fine. Better than messing with qi stickers

i got one of these..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151745479...49&var=450942342923&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT works perfect surprisingly and only £7

I have a Otter Commuter case https://www.amazon.com/OtterBox-Com...8&qid=1464832541&sr=8-4&keywords=otter+box+g4 works fine and very heavy duty, dropped many times with no problem for phone. 2 pieces.

Holster Case

I am looking for a holster case like the defender series from otterbox. Ideally I would like it to allow wireless charging and samsung pay (nfc) as well.
I found this one but their csr said no to both.
http://www.supcase.com/galaxy-s7-edge-unicorn-beetle-pro-case.html
Can anyone help me PLEASE!!!

You could probably get away with NFC with that, wireless charging's a no-go though. Anything over 0.9” inch I'd say would have a very hard time wirelessly charging. Your best bet is to wait for the phone to be out and bump your thread as ask again when people can actually test stuff. I wouldn't even trust what the CSRs are saying because it's unlikely they have actually used and tested it on the phone themselves.

I bet it will work fine for both... I am also looking for a holser-included case, and in my searching, I found that plenty of people are able to use wireless charging capabilities (Note 5, etc) even using the otterbox defender cases, and same with Samsung Pay features..... works fine in the case. The Supcase Unicorn Beetle (who names these things, anyway :laugh: ) Is not as thick as the otterbox defender, it's closer to the commuter in that respect, which is not bad at all.
Now, it's not out yet, but Seidio is working on cases/holsters for both S7 variants.... I have used them (and the Premier BB versions) on multiple phones and they have held up really well. I'll be waiting for one of those, if I can last that long.

I agree stupid awful name. LOL At least there is no picture of a Beetle with a unicorn horn on it or something stamped on the back!
I figured they were covering their butts in case it didn't but I am able to get a wireless charge on my s5 with a defender case and this looks so much thinner then that. I just hope that my bank is able to work with the Samsung Pay. I have heard there are only a few that it works with at the current time and since I bank with a smaller bank I doubt it will
Have you found any other cases with a holster? I still have not. Possibly the Seido whenever they release it... but they are known to be weeks after release of a phone.

Just found this case and for $10.99 it may be worth it until others hit the market.

WOW.. Not my style but way to break the bank. They have them for the s7 but not edge. I can't see $100 for a leather case for my hip. I'd rather do the 5 or 10 ones and hope they last! LOL

Right! Very pricey I say too but leather is pricey either way if its good. But I do know that they can size any Holster to the S7 Edge even if you have a case on it because I use their deerhill holster for my iPhone 6 Plus with an Incipio case on it

You don't have to wait for Seidio to release their SURFACE cases.... looks like Best Buy has the Seidio-sourced private-label Platinum slim hard case/holster combo already, at least in black.

Any idea if that case from Best Buy will work with wireless charging? That seems to be pretty much just what I'm wanting as well, but I'd prefer the Seidio Dilex Pro with kickstand like I've used on my S3 and S5, but don't know when it will be out.

It should work with wireless charging. I added a wireless charging circuit in my S4 and I have the same case on my S4 and it works fine doing wireless charging.

Very good case for wireless charging needed ...

Dear all.
I've protected my Note 5 with a powerful case. See here ...
http://www.amazon.com/Ringke-SIGNATURE-Genuine-Handcrafted-Executive/dp/B011LZRBRM
But today I recognized, that it's not QI-capable ...
I think the bottom of the case is "too fat" (the leather).
Can you recommend a good case for my Note 5? Not just a visible case. The case should also protect, when the device is falling down ... :good:
Thanks a lot ...
kangaroo72

these two Verus and Obliq work well for me. a few drops and no scratches on screen yet. I prefer the obliq since I have a skin and it also has a kickstand

The Otterbox works with wireless charging.

unicorn beetle also works well with most if not all wireless chargers

I use this case is very good dropped my phone multiple times and is still like new.

Wireless charging work with these cases on Note 9?

Wondering if either a Spiegen Ultra Hybrid or Otterbox Extender case interfere with wireless charging on the Note 9.

i had the spiegen on mine, worked ok with the wireless charging.

How about wireless charging with the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover?
I'm thinking about getting a nav dock with built in wireless charging.

This video from MobileFun shows it working with the OEM Samsung QI Wireless cheager:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyGlzgWr82c

I've tried both a leather wallet case (3mm) and a hybrid (5mm plastic) and they both fast charge with Samsung pad and factory fast charger. Not pushing Samsung but that's what I have! I actually like an IQ std 7w for most charging during the day (less heat)

Assuming you mean the Ottorbox Defender? Wireless charging works with all Ottorbox cases.

Yes, I did mean extender. Good old AutoCorrect never fails.

Found this
https://www.mobilefun.com/samsung/galaxy-note-9/cases/wireless-charging-compatible-cases

I stuck the phone and a 7-8mm abs sheet on both my Samsung and Ankler charging pads and got the same charge rate notifications ?

I use the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover with a couple of inexpensive dock-style vertical wireless chargers and have no problems. However, the inexpensive automobile dock with wireless charging did not work. I hope this helps.

this is highly dependant on the qi charging mat.

Ok, I got my hands on a wireless charger and tested the following cases. All achieved fast charging with screen off only. What an odd limitation to purposely build in. I was testing in order to see if a wireless charging nav dock is an option, but with no fast charge with screen on, the idea is pointless.
UAG Monarch
Spigen Tough Armor
Spigen clear TPU (I forget the name, it's the one that's flexible)
Rhinoshield Solid Suit
Samsung Silicone Cover
Samsung Rugged Protective Cover
I have not measured each one for thickness but I did measure the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover, which I believe to be the thickest of this bunch. The thickness of the back is approximately 3.6mm.
I've read some Amazon sellers state that their wireless chargers will not work on cases thicker than 4mm.

Unless your case has any metal or a very heavy coat of metallic paint on it. You should be able to charge it wireless without any issues.
