[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sircody:
No one said the Coil looks for battery status. The two coils ( receiver and transmitter communicate in their own way to each other only. The same way that a USB cord speaks to the USB Port. What they are trying to do is making it work exactly how the Powermat system works, The case or whatever attachment is on the phone that is powermat is a simple USB plugged into the phone and the Powermat Case has the coil and curcuit in it, So the two coils communicate and the USB gets the power.and the USB communicates with the phones port, telling it if it's power or data etc.

What they are doing is bypassing the part that reads or listen to the cord being plugged in, I'm sure you have heard many doing the Resister Mod and that is How Samsung chargers send more then the average amps of power and charge faster, internal mod, but that is in the connector part. The built in hardware for the contacts near battery on galaxy S3 and others are in order of other hardware before and after the contacts, like to say when enough power is enough etc etc. If connecting or soldering direct wires to the usb where this is being done was that simple and safe and easy, wouldn't you think that all phones would have Inductive charging today?

Answer, yes they would, IF it was safe, for user and phone. They will have wireless charging add ons sometime in bear future, like a flat card the size of a matchbook, but the phone has to have the wireless hardware built in it.

Only other way to get wireless added without internal hardware is , a company has manufactured batteries, AA,,AAA etc that are wrapped with a receiver to charge themselves while they are still in the remote or toy etc. BUT, the charger has to have a min of 3 walls, like a Box on a table, to receive power...

Well that is the closet to having or adding induction to a device without the hardware that the Last 100 years has been able to invent

So you are saying you know what hardware, where the hardware is and what the hardware's job is with Software to control the charging of the battery. it is not built into a battery, there is a responder to respond when asked how full, etc etc, the transmitting side is the controller of charging.

So saying any device or whatever can be made wireless charging without any knowledge of what's where and what's the job of this and that and by just putting two wires to the usb makes it a sure thing, safe, no danger of fire or damage or Death to the user? Well there is a Simple reason you do not put regular batteries into a battery charger made for rechargeable batteries, and that is unless you watch the batteries, put a temp reader etc etc, and test them constantly until they reach their fullness, then there is or will be a chance of exploding or catching fire. Rechargeables have built in them, a way to communicate with the charger......The usb port on the phone has a spot that is important and that is inside the connecter port receiving the charging cord, like docks in teh car and media docks etc, they all get their info and commands of what to do from that Connector on the charging cord, the Male tells the Female what to do and when to do it when he sticks His self into Her. I'm sure you/ve seen others mod the connectors with resisters etc. That is Communication with any power being sent or received

and Palm and Qi do not work together, and all Palm pre and Pixie were built from the start with the Induction hardware built in the phone, All of them, you just didn't have to use or know it had that ability unless the back cover was changed out with the cover with coil built in. that would be the only reason a Circuit board being part of the coil is the fact that it was one phone, Palm, or Prixie, and there was only one charger, TouchStone, so that makes perfect sense. But today Mods are trying to add Induction and use any many different brands and sizes etc of the Qi charging.

So saying that any phone can just connect/solder wires here and there and it works, doesn't quit compare to a Palm induction system, Because all palms had the Induction built into the Phone and wasn't need to put in back cover along with the coil, because no other mix of phones were planning to be used, just the palm.

So this is comparing a Palm with built in hardware and the Touchstone, to any phone that doesn't have one bit of the hardware (not talking about the Coils) talking about the Induction, and control of it.....Common sense, sorry, or maybe I feel it is since I've been working with Induction and My home has as much as It can be done today, that it feels normal to me because of being use to it...Counter tops, Granite has power under it ,...my walls, floors etc....This has been available for a while...I started Home Automation in 1992, andnever get bored with what we are doing here today....LOL
