or you can wait till i get mine and i will try to open it show u.

wireless charger is cool

totally agree, wireless charge is necessary. but you need a qi receiver like s4. can get it on amazon.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gordonzhao:
I meant 7, not u.

Have you tried any of the zens products, kms?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
I've tried the zens single base charger, but it's under the name sanwa, built quality is ok, and does what it suppose to do, but the price is rather high, but you get what you pay for.

All the zens chargers uses the supplied adapter, and not through USB, any charger using multiple coil will need to use a supplied adapter to supply enough power.

I took a bit of a chance and ordered a Qi and 10000mah battery pack

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00EN9I3F8/ref=pe_385721_37038051_pe_217191_31005151_3p_M3T1_dp_1

and Qi receiver

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Qi-Wi.../360772320790?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:GB:3160

They both work perfectly and pick up on the receiver is very good, tryed charger with nexus 4 and works perfectly with that too

The delivery on power pack was very fast, the receiver took 2 weeks.

:victory: Receiver just arrived and everything works! Zero bulge and charging through my case offers no problems.The Vu may have an issue (talking to support) but the cheapo pad seems to be working well.

For those that have the Vu, do you have issues with it start/stop charging every few seconds in landscape? Does it in portrait, too. Does this sound like the Vu or the receiver?

Thanks to all who made my wireless charging possible. :D

---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 PM ----------

The cheapo pad can do it too. Is this normal behavior, the receiver, interference, or me? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
That is definately a problem with your VU, i had the same issue with one of my Nokia DT-900 chargers.. wherein it would charge, then go off, and then would start again after a few mins.. then go off again, this would continue for hrs. I called ATT customer support and they told me they had quite a few of such complains and they sent out a new one. Looks like your's is the same issue. Might be a manufacturing defect. Or might be you must be having a slight bulge, and the phone is not coming in direct contact with the base. Try removing the jackets from the insert.

if its the same behaviour with other chargers, i suggest pulling off the receiver, and placing it back again, might be the connection must be loose. If you have a Home depot nearby, get a two sided sticky tape.. might be a dollar or two. You can stick that to your battery and qi insert make sure its exactly aligned to the plugs.

---------- Post added at 12:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

Yea i am getting one, want to have it before our europe trip mid-december. Will get the white one. The phone is white.. so are all the other chargers. The black one will definately look like a bomb or something in the bag, cos of the thickness. :D

Atleast the white looks a little bit decent.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
Thank you. I was fairly sure it was the Vu. I did everything you suggested, twice, before seeing your response. While there is a minor - almost invisible - bulge, it doesn't seem to be an issue with the cheapo pad. It is positional, but only replicates the Vu behavior if I don't place it properly. The Vu may do it either way. My case isn't the issue. I might just remove the cover from the receiver anyway, but I really don't think it's the issue. Also may grab that juicy black NFC receiver. :)

Problem with Nokia DT-900

Is anyone having a problem using the Nokia DT-900, specifically the Phone will go into this finding wireless charging then losing it when it's fully charged?

It causes the screen to come on and it to give the "wireless charging" message, which isn't good if it's on your nightstand.

I don't have this problem with any other Qi charging pad I have, all the other ones the phone goes to green.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kryolos:
On my quest to find the best Qi pad for the Note 3, I basically ordered whatever I could find on eBay (ended up getting a few of the same ones). Today I received most of the pads that I was still missing, so, I thought this would be a good time to throw up a quick review of the ones that i have received.

You can see some pictures (sorry for the bad quality - just had access to my Nexus 4) and a little description of each here: http://imgur.com/a/BBEy6

A few things to mention:

NFC works on most of the Qi pads except the Nillkin and Yipen pads (maye due to the size or the thickness compared to the others)

I have not had the chance to try and peel the sticker/branding off the pads.

Arguably all these pads feel well built (compared to blue sticker branded Qi pads that became first available for the Note 3)

There's no noticeable bulge from most of the pads. Nillkin definitely had the worst bulge out of all of them and was even noticeable just by holding the phone.

Placing the Note 3 down on a flat surface with any pad installed causes tilting. While the phone looks flat on a table. By pushing down on the top and bottom of the phone you can create a seesaw effect.

I'm not sure which of the pads I'm going to use at this point but I'll probably wait until I can see if I can peel some of the stickers and see if any of them get a bit slimmer first.

For anyone that has stripped the sticker / branding off the Qi pad - the padding on the inside seem to be very sticky. Has it caused any issues with sticking to the back cover or the battery? If so, have you found a remedy to the problem?

I also have one other pad that i am waiting on with the NFC connectors which may or may not be better than the current ones that I have.

Feel free to ask any questions.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
Ah, I hope that isn't a normal issue with the Vu charger, I just ordered one :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
The good news there is that TYLT CS is great. Discussed the issue with him, he asked me a couple of questions - charging back or receiver, etc., nothing big - and said "we know blah, blah, blah," and sent me an email with a request for my shipping address and a copy of my invoice. They're shipping me a replacement and a shipping label to send this one back. If my initial contact with TYLT is any indicator, I expect this to be replaced quickly and easily. If not, I'll go to TMobile for satisfaction.

Hah, before I could finish typing I got my reply. Replacement shipping. ;) Nice.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
A prepaid shipping label I presume? If so then that's decent CS in my book
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
That's what I'm thinking - he didn't say "You have to pay return shipping." I've emailed him for clarification.

Once again, as I typed his response came "Yes it is prepaid." Stunning CS. On par with Amazon in this one instance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
Another quick question.. is there a reason there is a difference in the prices as seen here? Or is it just they havent updated their portal properly.

That could be one of the same issue i described just one post above.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
I ended up taking the plastic off of the front of my receiver but didn't try the white plastic on the back. I figured I'd break it if I messed with it any more than I did. It was already pretty flat but wanted to make sure the case + plastic wasn't creating an issue. Very flat now, can't tell anything if you didn't know.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
VU is just amazing... Everyone should have one. :)

---------- Post added at 02:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 AM ----------

Thats good, but if you are careful enough, and hold both the black plastic insulations while pulling the insert (try bit by bit from both top and bottom.. you can remove both. (i did that twice.. no issues at all).

I am still waiting on the NFC+QI receiver..
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
Agreed. Vu is amazing and ya gotta get one. ;)

The problem IS lack of ability to be careful. If you get ten people to do as you suggest the one that breaks theirs will be me. Good news is I'm good at fixing things, too. :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
I have over 15 qi charger and about 20 receivers, using only 3-4 of them, they all work great, if the vu is good and everyone should have one, then everyone should be like me and have all 15/20 of the one I have.:D

just joking.

Anyway about the w10000, i'm also getting the white one, as the black one, the black coating along the aluminum sides can be unsighted if scratched.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
I'll take my Vu and all your gear, too! The one who dies with the most gear wins! (followed by sinister laugh) :D

Any one know any way to take away the notification that pops up when you start charging?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
the only way to have wireless charging without pop up is use a universal receiver.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
Do you have a link or can you explain more. Thanks. The notification will drive me to drink. I guess with root you can get rid of it, too.

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------

What does your Vu do when charging is finished? Mine shows green light glowing on Vu, phone shows no charging and at 100% but I also have a new notification that says I am fully charged and should unplug charger. Is this correct, and any way to turn off that message other than move the phone? Kind of a pain to have it always showing under Ongoing. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] kms108:
it basically a receiver that you connects to the usb instead of the wireless contact.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] rawdikrik:
Hey guys.

Remember that Amazon link I posted with the pad that also does nfc? I ordered it and it just came in.

I'll give a full review, but it is pretty good. Not perfect, and I still have a slight bulge, but the NFC and charging works well.

Go get it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
Per the Vu UG once fully charged the green light should go off. Mine doesn't - is this a N3 anomaly? If not, then my Vu is defective. At least it doesn't show it as continually charging once full.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Kawaisa:
The light on my Nillkin also doesn't change colors when fully charged even though the manual says that it's supposed to, but it does keep the phone topped off at 100%

maybe it's a N3 thing?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
That's what I'm thinking and why I asked here. I'll email TYLT tomorrow and ask if they have tested the N3. I just don't want to damage the battery if I can avoid it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
If you are into custom roms, install hyperdrive.. there's an option there to disable the pop up. Although i prefer it and have kept it inspite of having two custom roms plus the stock in all the three strap partitions.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
Thank you. I intend to root but haven't yet and haven't ever flashed a custom rom. Doubt I would now. I think once I get a working Vu I'll be fine. It's a pain though.

What about your lights on your Vu/phone once finished charging?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
I really did not care to look at Vu how it reacts when it had completely charged the phone. I guess that's because I am not a morning person and when I wake up early in the morning at 6 am to take up the morning commute to Chicago city for work I barely open my eyes and look around bump around the room all the corners Falling and getting up struggling to get ready, the charger status is the last thing I notice to see.

But you can install Wanam Xposed and get rid of both the status

That's how you disable the notification.

But I must say you gotta have custom roms to actually use your note to its full potential.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
Thanks anyway. As for the roms - eh, it falls under the same category as the "removing the back plastic". Don't wanna brick this baby, just want ads to go away, get rid of other annoyances, etc.. Not being already fully entrenched in Samsung phones, I'm really ill at ease with the flashing. I came from root with nandroid so the whole odin, twerp, etc. really does a number on my head. I rooted my GN10.1 and haven't done anything else to it due to lack of confidence. Same here, only more so because it's a phone. Even when rooted on other devices I never flashed roms.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] MANswers:
Never install over your stock. Use Safestrap create a second partition and activate it then install your custom rom over it. Don't touch your main stock partition that came with your phone, this way you will never Brock you're phone. Even if you, you can always reactivate you're stock patition and factory reset.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babyshanks:
In respect to the pop-up notification, I was thinking of possibly using a tasker profile to close it quickly. Don't have my charge pad in hand yet so I haven't started working on it/know if its possible (new to tasker), but anyone try that yet? Would it close it faster? Suggestions?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
At present my issue with notifications is related to the Vu because it's cycling improperly. I've disabled the screen under dock and dev options so that's not contributing to the problem. It is solely with the Vu. The cheaper one I bought doesn't have issue and it charges properly without repeatedly showing the notification and turning on my screen. As soon as I get my replacement it should be fine.

ETA - the notification is really quick when things are working properly and it doesn't show repeatedly like mine.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] babyshanks:
Oh I see, thought it was a popup you had to manually dismiss.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] toenail_flicker:
To give you an idea.. on my Vu the screen lights up, a window pops up saying it is charging and then goes away. When the screen goes finally goes dark my Vu starts the whole process over again after only a minute or so. Something else that is figuring in is the Battery Full notification from Samsung. Between the two my screen rarely stays off.

On my cheapo it pairs and gives the notice then goes away and the phone is dark and hassle-free.

Would be great if I could get the Sammy notice and icon to go away since that wakes up the screen, too. Any ideas anyone?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gordonzhao:
Off topic but saw you guys mention safestrap, it sounds interesting and I'd like to play around with it but it appears it's only for the Verizon and AT&T models as the bootloaders are locked. It appears it's not available for the T-Mobile variant?

Official Samsung Wireless Charging Back

From the pictures I have seen on Ebay, it looks like the official charger is more than just a wireless receiver. There are two sets of contacts and presumably one is for the charging and the other for NFC. It could be that the NFC antenna located in the battery is blocked by the wireless receiver, hence the need for another one in the back.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] busab:
There is a thread in the tmobile note 2 section that confirms wireless charging does indeed work this time on the tmobile variant.

Anyone use any third party back cover or charging pad? I'm curious as to the performance compared to the OEM equipment.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
That's too rich for my blood.

If anyone wants to sell it for the same as the S4 version ($40) I might go for it, but now I guess I'll wait for the cheep Qi inserts to show up on Amazon.

When you get one please let us know how thick it is in comparison to the standard back. The S4 version is thick enough that most cases won't fit properly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ScottC:
I tried several of the cheap ones on my S4, and hated them all - things like slow charging and regular disconnects. I loved the original one from Samsung, and while it does make it a little thicker, I don't use a case, so I never noticed it. I'll post my thoughts when it shows up here.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] gnik luap:
Before I returned the S4 I used a cheap bumper for a while, but it stated to come apart. I really don't like the idea of going without a case or bumper, this phone will cost me almost $800 by the time I get a glass screen protector. I should really find an insurance plan (not through T-Mobile, it seems like there are too many hassles & too high a co-pay from what I've read).
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ReggieSmith:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] BlueChris:
I do since last week when I got the phone, roll back some pages where I explain everything.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] rchapoteau:
How long does it take to give a full charge with this?

Also, will this work through a case? I like the idea of wireless charging, but I don't want to have to take the case off every single time I use it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] SGBE:
I went from 75% to 100% in about 2 hours, but I have no tested it further. There are some charge times a few pages back.

By its nature, QI charging is only good for about 4-5mm so most compatible cases are typically rear case replacements. Some ultra thin cases may work but my favorite leather folio case for my N2 did not play nice with the Samsung wireless charging pad. I will test few N3 cases this coming week.
