I just bought the following from obostore.com

Nillkin Wireless Charger Charging Pad Adapter Magic Disk For Mobile Phone

Colour: Black CA$21.39

Nillkin Magic Wireless Charging PU Leather Case For Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9000 $CA$24.92

Right now they are having their 20% off discount with the "HORSE2014" coupon code as well. The whole order, with the charging disc ended up costing me about $40 bucks. The wireless charging insert has the IC chip built in so it will work with a lot of the S View covers that are not from Samsung.

I thought the two items together were a great deal!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tdd2:
Good question . . .

As a quick and dirty test, I just ran down to the kitchen for a thin piece of plain aluminum (not tin) foil. As soon as I placed it over my Nokia DT-900, the chargers indicator light began to flash rapidly - indicating a charger problem. Placing the phone on top did not change the situation.

So, no, QI wireless will not work through (even thin) aluminum, at least with the DT-900, and not likely with any other chargers designed to not work when a metal object is within the coils field.

Wireless charging is based on electromagnetism, so it just won't pass any kind of metal. That's why you put the receiver under your back cover for this electromagnetic field to do it's thing with the metallic wiring.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kjinmn:
I purchased a yellow, blue, and black one of these locally on Craigslist. They are older, have

a proprietary plug, but seem extremely well made. They also feature a triple coil with big

wire - pretty nice. They were also cheap enough that I don't mind playing with them a bit.

Ideas for mod use anyone? I am pretty good at a lot of things, but circuit board soldering is

not a strong suit of mine. I could solder a USB charging cable to the proprietary input cable

(not a problem). Any different or better ideas?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] aengus4h:
might also get the effect of the metal back heating up as eddy currents are induced from the coil...

As said, metal will prevent wireless charging, also affect NFC. That's why the new iPhone needs a back added for Qi, it's not possible through its aluminium casing (plus you can't exactly go add a 3rd party receiver into the phone, locked into whatever cr@pple want to let you have)...

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] thatsnailguy:
Has anyone achieved at least 1000mA to the phone with their setups? I want to make the plunge back into wireless charging, but only if it can keep up with navigation and Pandora running in a car dock.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] mixxy:
realistically speaking there isnt a wireless charger that will get you the FULL 1A charging rate that the USB cable will get you. If it does, it will not be tested thoroughly as current standards are below 1A. Unless you look at the options for the Powermat, some of those chargers do emit more than 1A but I think the receivers are still limited to what they can utilize.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Syn3rgetic:
A few minor questions:

I'm using an unofficial CM11 ROM, this wouldn't impact charging ability would it?

The receiver that I bought has 2 pairs of pins. Two on top and two on the side, is this any different from the ones you guys got with one 2?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sanjsrik:
Is wireless charging a function of the software or the hardware or a combination of both? I ask out of ignorance because I bought just a receiver I stuck on the battery and thought it was just a function of hardware. I am guessing the software component is the "wireless charging started" message?

Honestly, I'd really like to know.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Syn3rgetic:
That's pretty much what I'm asking too haha.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] sanjsrik:
Wait? you are, honestly, I read your post and didn't get that at all.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] {Laharl}:
Thanks for this information!

I just ordered a set last night for $34.54 and can't wait to try them out!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] EnhancerFIN:
Kernel controls at least the charging current, in wireless charging that is limited to 640mA.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] thatsnailguy:
Wait.... The phone isn't talking to the transmitter. The transmitter just sends out however much power it is supposed to. The receiver must collect as much power that it interrupts in the field that the transmitter has emitted correct?

So if you have a transmitter that is putting out more than 640mA+lost efficency. Where does the extra power go? Does the receiver decide not to pick up power for a few milliseconds or do the receiver and transmitter communicate.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babyshanks:
The charger is built into the phone, the wireless receiver and wall plug are just adapters that provide a current at a certain voltage. The voltage is forced, but current (amps) can be drawn at whatever rate the charger (in the phone) decides. So if the receiver/transmitter can maintain the max current the charger draws then it will draw it, but if it can provide more the phone will only draw the max current the charger will take which in our case is 640mah, the remaining current just remains available. Also I'd be worried about heat generated if it were higher for this particular device. Its been awhile since circuits, so anyone feel free to correct me.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] thatsnailguy:
Perhaps I should brush up on the inductive charging technology. my analysis was very stupid. For some reason my mind went on a tangent and I thought that the transmitter already completed its circuit before the receiver ever gets involved. So the only way to bleed off excess amps is to store them or in heat.

But thinking about it again I was stupid. The more logical thinking would be to assume the receiver and phone connected to it complete the circuit with the transmitter whenever in range.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Plainsdrifter:
Just ordered a Otterbox Defender case after giving up on the Spigen View case. Question' not sure if this has been addressed before;

Does wireless charging work on this case? If so, how well does it work.Anyone's experience here would be appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
I'm not 100% certain, but I believe the case would be to think for current QI wireless charging. The max distance at which can work is usually about 6mm. I'm assuming the car is thinner than that (not too familiar with the case).

See my post in this topic about a week ago for the hardware I bought. I am able to charge mine that way, but have to place the phone just right, or I only get a trickle charge. I do like it better than plugging it in all the time.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tdd2:
I've done most of the testing work on the Otterbox already, as I use an Otterbox Defender on my GN3 - and wireless charging/NFC works just fine.

I've tested mine with the white 'thin' QI insert (best overall fit/operation), the black NFC enabled insert (good operation, not as good a fit), and a modified OEM charging back (best operation, but only fits with the factory battery cover removed).

I have a PowerBot puck, and several DT-900's that I got through AT&T's kiler discount on 3 items deal. I also have a couple of Palm Touchstones for use as desk mounts - and have no issue with any of them working well - though as noted in parentheses - some work better than others.

Add to this the fact I have two small metal tabs (I had a large, thin washer previously - but had to move to two pieces, one above and one below the QI/NFC coils) glued to the outside of my OB hard case, in between the plastic OB case and the outer rubber cover for my minimalist car mounts.

I am also using NFC quite effectively, including the NFC unlock mod...

Hope that helps!

so the best solution right now in terms of a qi receiver is the techmatte or the mudder if I want to use it with an s-view cover right? no bulge?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
yijieneng or the nillkin (QI receiver with built in s view ic)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
those don't have the pass through contacts though, so how would the s-view case work with it?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
the yijieneng is the official maker of the techmatte and mudder receiver, techmatte and mudder is only a sellers name, whiles the nillkin has the s view ic built into the receiver.

Hello guys, been a lurker in this thread for quite a while now. Today my purchases has arrived and I wanna share to you all.

The packaging was economic, perfectly fine by me. Tested it and I'm satisfied. The heat reads 101'F while charging.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Jackseric:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] maetsuenxda:
I can tell there is a bulge indeed but not to a degree that got me worried.

It's hard to tell that's the bulge is there just by looking at it at a glance but at the back of my mind I know there's gotta be a bulge.

I mean I was the one that installed it and I felt the thickness of that receiver and knowingly accepted that it's gotta add a little bulge.

I purchased the items separately from ebay, the links are below.

From e-bay >>> Qi Standard Wireless Charging Receiver Support NFC for Samsung Galaxy Note 3

From e-bay >>> Multi-Color Violet Qi Wireless Charger Charging Pad For Nexus 4 HTC DNA Lumia920

The cable that comes with this charging is pretty thick, even thicker than the original cable that comes with a Note 3.

I guess that's a good point to mention.

I'm wirelessly charging now again using the original Samsung charger adapter and the temperature reads 99'F, it's looking good.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
There isn't any point asking for a brand, most of these QI product from china does not state the brand, they tend to sell them on bulk to dealers.

---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

don't rely on the looks of the cable, thicker is not always better.

but using the oem cable is always a safe bet.

if you are worried about the bulge get the note 3 oem one, you won't get any bulge from that.

All,

Are any of you have issues with the internal add-on coils moving around? I think the issues I've been having was the little tag on the inside moved when I did removed the back the case one day. Any suggestion on adding a small piece of tape inside to hold it in place? I was thinking of 2 very small pieces of transparent office tape (Scocth tape in US), or maybe double sided?

Any suggestions on something else?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babyshanks:
I got double sided tape on the battery cover side of my receiver so that I can swap batteries without removing the receiver. Just place double sided tape on the back. Line it up on the phone then place the back on. Works great for me. Haven't had to take it off or anything since I put it on.

Best to use a double sided tape to stop it moving around. Many come with double sided tape with it. I am using one with take. Improper sync will increase heat generation so use tape to stop it moving around.

Decreased Battery Life with Wireless Charging?

Hi All,

I've been using the Blue 3-PIN transmitter and a Nokia-DT900 Charging Plate for a couple weeks now and ever since I started wireless charging at night, my battery life has decreased substantially. I haven't changed any apps or settings. Temperatures don't get very warm so I doubt the battery has been damaged. Could it be cycling at night and therefore somehow screwed up the battery calibration? (meaning could it have more juice left but just isn't indicating percentage correctly?)

I've since gone back to USB charging with the stock charger but it hasn't helped.

Is there a way to recalibrate the battery to see if this is even the issue?

Thanks,

Derek
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] tdd2:
. . .the continuing saga of "what is the best wireless charging / NFC for use with the Otterbox Defender case?'. . .

The newest configuration I am running is with the QI/NFC circuit from the OEM Samsung charging back, fitted to the stock Note 3 back cover.

After separating the circuit card from the OEM charging back, I was able to carefully remove the actual circuit from the plastic card, leaving me with the fantastic OEM Samsung QI/NFC in a package just as thin as the white Amazon QI card I'd been using for the last couple weeks.

I mounted the circuit directly to the inside back cover so that I could remove the cover and/or battery without disturbing the card, using clear 3M paint protection film to mount the card - this protects the circuit, and holds it all around the perimeter. (The thin metal 'T' on the OEM card is a heat sink for the IC chip).

The first 3 pictures below are views of the back cover on, showing the very slight deformation from the mounted circuit card - fits snugly inside the Otterbox Defender case, but without any issues - and that is with my iLoome tempered glass screen protector on as well.

The last picture shows the OEM QI/NFC card mounted to the inside of the back cover of the Note 3.

Both the wireless charging and the NFC have been thoroughly tested with this newest setup - and they work like a charm!

Cheers'

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] CZroe:
The receivers are all different shapes. Best bet is to align it over the battery with the double-sided tape already applied and then install the battery door. As long as you didn't stick it to the battery it should stick to the battery door when you remove it. Simple!
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] FormeriPhoney:
I'm referring to the non Nfc techmatte receiver but I will try that out regardless
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] RojasTKD:
As stated apply the double sided tape all along the back of the receiver, align it with the pins, then install the back cover on top. Just apply a little pressure to ensure it sticks, done.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] nerys71:
I would use a tiny piece of double sided to stick it to the battery like its designed too. this will "keep it aligned"

put the cover on insure it works etc..

now pop the cover off and cover the receiver with double sided tape. put the cover back on and smush it gently down to attach to the double sided tape.

insure it works. gently pop it off the large area of double sided take should be stronger than the small piece holding it to the batter. remove this piece push down the receiver with your fingers to insure its on their good and you should be good to go!

Qi receiver really that thin?

After reading al lot of your posts here I wonder if there is a QI receiver that is really 0.5mm thin, From what I have noticed, some of the supplier clame this but there is always a kind of small chip or whatever it is that makes this thing thicker. The rest may be thin though. Do you know what I mean and is there a receiver that is really that thin?

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babyshanks:
Nice, that sucker isn't going anywhere. I have that receiver as well on another back. Another method (do at your own risk) is to peel the outer layer off and stick it on the back. I even moved the coil so that it sits exactly in the middle of the NFC coils on the battery. Pros: super thin with no visible bulge, nfc works everytime flawlessly (assuming you move the coil), and stuck to back panel really well. It was tough to pull off for pictures. Cons: it's no longer centered when charging (off just slightly), and risk damage when setting it up. I had gotten another receiver at the time and wasn't worried about damage. Reason I did it was mainly to get nfc to work all the time since I use it multiple times a day. I find myself using this back and receiver now more often than the taped one with nfc built in since it works well and doesn't have any bulge.
