2 questions...

1) Will the charging stop after the battery has reached 100% (as it would if plugged into USB charger)?

2) I'm seeing a number of 'Universal' charging adapters - which one did you use, and what mA rating should we use? I see 500mA, 650mA, and 750mA.
[Moto G Accessories] goldentuna:
One more question ... will this charge through a case?
[Moto G Accessories] dubidu:
Yes it does.

I have an official flip case. It charges fine (even with the flip cover between the back of the phone and the charging mat)

How about heat from charger receiver pad

Hi everyone,

I got one of qi charger receiver like a 1st post.

when in put charger receiver to Qi station (I use Nexus 4 Qi Charger) about 5 min charger pad is hot (not warm - but can touch able)

Is this normal?
[Moto G Accessories] Minervamc:
Nice tutorial.Really it's excellent.Thanks.
[Moto G Accessories] Al!ster:
Will this secure for mobile??
[Moto G Accessories] dabotsonline:
I would hope that there would be some resellers who would install this mod themselves and then sell the phone with their own warranty. My mum lives in the UK and would be interested in the forthcoming Moto G LTE if it had Qi charging (can't believe they've left out NFC again, though!)
[Moto G Accessories] Lauriz7:
I applied this mod, but i didn't work very well. It normally works, i have soldered it to the same points as in the tutorial, but as soon the Qi Charging Receiver comes close to the phone - charging stops and the Qi Charging Pad also turns OFF.

I captured it in the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdRy3GyGsuk (1.module seperated from the phone, but still connected, 2. module on the phone)

Can anyone help me?
[Moto G Accessories] dubidu:
Did you tried first without soldering? just using the USB connector?

Could be the QI pad, I have done it in a couple of MotoG with different pads and it was fine.

Are you using the wireless charging tool to enable the floating charge thingy? Any power-related message in mesg?
[Moto G Accessories] Lauriz7:
In works perfectly when plugged into the USB and when the pad isn't very close to the phone (as shown in the video)..

I did use the app to enable charging. What's mesg?
[Moto G Accessories] dubidu:
So, plugged into the USB works all the time? Even when the pad is sitting on top of the battery?

It may be a stupid question but, are you sure is properly lined up. Some chargers are quite "picky" about the position of the qi pad.

I was talking about dmesg. Any charging related message (exceed power, otg, etc) should appear in the dmesg output (from a terminal, do SU, and then dmesg)
[Moto G Accessories] Lauriz7:
It works all the time, but i did not tried on the top of the battery, cause the usb cable is now cutted. It is properly lined up. When the receiver comes closer to charger whiles sitting on top of the battery, the charger LED turns off (probably identicating some failure?).
[Moto G Accessories] dubidu:
I did similar hack (wireless pad) for a Nook HD. Without some kernel parameter change (to force USB charge to 1A) the wireless charging base was switching between on and off every second because the tablet was enabling and disable charging and the base was reacting to that (on and off). I could see the messages about the USB not providing enough juice in the dmesg output.

I've not seen that with any of my Moto Gs or the two QA bases (both from ebay, but not like yours). Maybe there is something with your battery that interferes with the pad.

If you put something between the pad and the battery still fails? (some metal foil or something like that)

Been waiting for someone to do this. I also would like to know if the SD mod would work with this. If anyone does it please update us! Thanks a lot for the tutorial.
[Moto G Accessories] DyJohnnY:
Hi,

Great mod, I have the MotoG, and thinking of doing this type of mod to it.

However I am curious about a few things, that I would like the OP to clear up.

1. Did you just randomly choose the 5V points on the board? I mean...you should choose those points on the circuit that is before the charging module of the phone. It would make no sense to feed the phone 5V through the camera module, for example, since that will never go through the charging module of the phone...and could potentially damage the phone. I do admit, that in the picture, you must be pretty close to the charging module, since the connector is just a little north of your soldering point.

2. Why did you not connect via the USB connector itself and chose that particular SMD resistor?

3. When you say, look for 5V points...do you mean look for them with the with the USB cable attached to a charger? I'm thinking that would be an actual way to trace the 5V charging voltage, since you could measure with and without the USB cable attached and you would find out where on the board the usb plug feeds the signal to the charging module.
[Moto G Accessories] NWKENT:
Edit..
[Moto G Accessories] mazeprince:
Different 5V point

Hey, i finally wanted to install this mod, after being tired of having a blocked usb port and a small bump in my grip shell. I removed the backcover and just wanted to ensure the right solder points, so i tested them with my multimeter. Now i am really confused. In the picture above the 5v point is the second from the right. For me there is nothing, but there ist 4,6-5 V on the first to the right. See the picture.

What do i do now? It seems everybody in this thread has used the one jamlvs pointed out. Have you all checked them with a multimeter? Do i have a slighty different device? Its european single sim 16 GB.

Have a nice day
[Moto G Accessories] dubidu:
If there is continuity between that spot and the usb socket go ahead and use that one.

I don't remember which spot I used (5V) when I did mine (two phones) I just found a spot which came from the 5V usb pad and any other for ground.

Remember you may need the software tool or a custom kernel to enable the usb "floating" charging.
[Moto G Accessories] woozie.2007:
very good tutorial, thanks, i have one question please:

in your pictures i see the wireless receiver on the motherboard and i dont understand, you put the wireless adapter on battery? or under battery? thank you

[Moto G Accessories] werich:
I use the exact same receiver but decided for the old Nokia DT-900 charger instead. It just delivers 0.75A but these kind of receivers seem not able to receive above 0.5A anyway. It took me 3:40h to fully load the device from 25% and I regularly checked phone and charger - both stayed surprisingly cool. Cooler than a phone under heavy load.

After testing with the USB connector for a week, I did the internal mod. But because I was also concerned about the heat I refused to put the receiver directly on the battery as shown and installed it on the rear coverage instead. I soldered the cables to the backpin and the casing of the microUSB because the layout on my LTE version is slightly different and there was so less space that the pins seemed to be the much better choice. That stuff is really tiny, so the result was quite messy (1st pic is prior soldering). But works like a charm!
[Moto G Accessories] woozie.2007:
when the phone charging, the screen lights on randomly, anyone knows why? the screen is locked but during charging its lighting random. I tried with moto floating on, or off, same thing happend
[Moto G Accessories] woozie.2007:
with the receiver in the phone, the gsm signal is lower than without receiver, is any method to fix this?
[Moto G Accessories] marcars:
can you post your instruction with pictures for QI Wirless charger for Moto G LTE.?
[Moto G Accessories] Zjho:
After many mistakes my moto g has working but somewhat deprecated wireless charging.

Just as well it was rooted before these trials as the usb socket has clean gone :o

No hope of flashing ROMs now.

People who find wireless charging unsuccessful should know that it typically took me around 20 attempts to work, whether that is due to borderline soldering or some software behaviour i do not know.

The fuller story :

Thought i'd try skipping Vila Nova de Gaia's suggested custom ROM (CM11) and installation of moto floating charge and it worked, as above, about the one in 20 times as soldered. It must be my dodgy soldering i thought, retrying.

Joining the usb data lines did not seem to make much difference to this success rate.

Eventually i switched the +5 V to what looks like the -5 V terminal on the usb socket which are only covered by a flimsy piece of silicone rubber in order to get the occasional success.

After chewing that up with my rather large iron i removed the entire socket and stopped only after filing a fair bit of the board away cleaning up trying to get a connection. Still got the same success rate. Left a piece of solder bridging roughly where the usb data lines could be. Amazed it works as there looks to be more than one layer of connections on the board. Bit reluctant to take the phone off the charger now it is taking charge. Luckily this is mostly a spare test mobi into the Android world.
[Moto G Accessories] NWKENT:
Why risk destroying the device, purchase a QI charging module and your done..if one needs to plug in the device via USB, pull the back shell off, unplug the module, plug the USB cable in, do the mods, reverse tear down procedures.. simple, fast..no risk to the device motherboard..have all of my Moto G's setup this way..(1) XT1028, (2) XT1045's (1) XT1064..I also have my XT1060 Moto X Dev. Edition set up the same way, couldn't be happier..I have (2) TYLT chargers, (2) PowerBot chargers and (1) Air Dock charger..all work flawlessly with the QI charge modules..

"Praise Jah" YOU people.!
[Moto G Accessories] Zjho:
It may have been easy :)

Got caught with the usb connection. Some solder got stuck behind the terminals that could not be removed so forcing the drastic step.

Other people learn from my mistake.
[Moto G Accessories] woozie.2007:
use a aspirin and hold the motherboard with the pins down, face down, sory for my english
[Moto G Accessories] Zjho:
Hey i googled that and understand it is used to remove the coating :

"Hold the soldering iron to the aspirin pill and melt that against the wires. Apparently it makes some nasty acid that dissolves the coating. Actually works damn well, but be sure not to breath the fumes and have ventilation. That stuff is nasty! After melting the pill to the wires for a bit I then use flux and clean the wires again."

I was aware Moto base their waterproofing on some special coating.
[Moto G Accessories] werich:
Sorry to hear about the loss of your USB connectivity. I'm not sure if the water-resistant coating on the board hindered the soldering but I sucssessfully could make it without the aspirin trick and my USB port is still functional. I think the industrial soldering tin has a higher melting point, so I avoided adding additional tin. I also was not confident enough for soldering the cable to the SMD part as jamlvs did - at this scale there is a high risk of screwing things up.

So for anyone who tries I just want to emphasize again that this stuff is really tiny and even though I'm not very skilled I already have soldered before. Please be careful and better train on an old circuit board before!

Sorry - but I didn't make any more pictures of the process than provided here. Connecting to the USB port will most likely affect the water resistance. But as you can see on pic1 the SMD layout on the LTE version is slightly different to the xt33 from jamlvs and this method seemed safer to me. Putting the receiver outside should prevent for additional heating and seemed more convenient in case the receiver needs to be replaced.

The cables I used were cut from an old 80-wire parallel ATA cable. Note that I didn't use additional soldering tin - I just used flux and slightly tinned the cable tips before soldering them to the existing tin from the connector pins! For this I used a small 8W soldering needle that doesn't get too hot (but is still quite large for this purpose) and it took me maybe 5 try's to firmly connect the 5+V cable to the USB connector pin on the outer right, indicated with the red arrow. The ground pin was more resistant and after maybe 20 unsuccessful attempts the already present tin was gone. So I gave up and soldered it to the large amount of tin that holds the USB housing instead (indicated by the blue arrow). For ground any larger metal part will do but better check with a voltmeter first.

Then I anchored the cable with tape on the lower part of the battery before threading them through a pinched hole in the plastic cover of the backplate.

The receiver module was much easier - after peeling back the black foil from the flat cable part, it exposed already prepared solder joints I could use (indicated by the red and blue circles in the second photo). For isolation I reattached the black foil afterwards.

Hi guys, great tutorial!

I have a problem with the charging port of my moto g because I can recharge the battery when it connected. I can reflash a rom, transfer information to the phone via usb but I can not charge the battery.

Long story short, the contact on the PCB of the GROUND usb port not works and I wonder if I can replace the 5V and GROUND pin of the usb port with the 2 port that is shown in the tutorial.

Here is my phone usb port.

If you currently have that app installed already, you may have to delete it first. sometimes it can be kind of "hidden" somewhere in your system, so double check.

you downloaded a corrupt version of the app/are trying to install a partially downloaded file. If there is an md5 sum, could you check that?

The phone boots up with no warnings on the Samsung splash and then gets to the white T-Mobile 4G LTE splash and just hangs there. I've tried reflashing the firmware from ODIN with the same result.

What should I do? Should I flash up to the 4.4.2 version? The phone is going back regardless so I don't care about anything other than getting this to boot up so I can exchange it.

anyway

1. d/l firmware file from sammobile.com

2. boot to download mode

3. run odin and plug phone into pc(if you have a mac your on your own from here as i have a pc and not a mac)

4. load file you just d/led(in tar.md5 format) into the pda slot(i'm assuming you have odin 3.07)

5. click start and wait to profit.

you can also d/l 4.3 firmware from same site if you really want it.

ok. your baseband and bootloader are 4.3, but your custom rom is a 4.4.2 rom. if you install the nk3 firmware. you'll have stock touchwiz 4.4.2 with the nk3 baseband and bootloader along with the csc file. and a bunch of otherstuff. it will all be upgraded. instead of having a custom 4.4.2 rom you'll be on the newest stock touchwiz version which is nk3.

nk3 can be rooted. you can install a custom recovery and still reinstall custom roms.

if that makes sense.
