How's you back cover? is this really the original cover? I'm really confuse on how will the QI cover will look like is it really a little bit thicker where camera and finger print sensor will a bit sunken just like what [MENTION=1373405]kingoanklebreakn[/MENTION] posted: http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/31/e5yzeny2.jpg

or it will remain the same just like the samsung page posted?

I think if you use them individually, they should work ok.

I have a 3rd party receiver and pad and when it charges to 100% it stays fully charged the led light stays green. Are there any receivers/pads which charge to 100% then stop and recharge again when the battery gets to like 90-95%. I'd rather it like that than being always charging and having the heat.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] kms108:
Lets keep this thread on topic which relates to the official oem wireless cover, for 3rd party stuff, there is a thread on that.

So if i understand correctly:

when i buy the wireless kit (pad + cover) for S5 the tehe phone doesnt get charged to 100% but gives an error?

i just wanted to order an kit but i think i will wait a little bit.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Rabangus:
Yeah, like many people I found the official back cover wouldn't charge to 100%. I'm currently trying to return mine through Amazon (although the seller is ignoring me).

I've bought one of the 0.5mm PWRCards from Fonesalesman, and it adds virtually no bulge to the back of the standard back cover, and I'm pretty confident that water resistance will be maintained (although I'm not about to test it!)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] fanto3k4:
Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. At least with mine. Are you finding the same?

and don't you think maybe its the charging pad and not the back cover?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Zylograth:
I have not had this problem with the S4 charging pad or either if my Choetech charging pads. I don't think this is caused by the cover but by the charging pad that is being used.

It's been working great, I'm pretty sure it's official and that they all look like that. Everyone who has it mentions how the camera is recessed, I think Samsung isn't using the cover in that pic.

My back cover from this place works well. Every morning I wake up and it's at 100%. I'm thinking it's the pad people are using. I use a Lugulake one I got on Amazon that has a built-in battery pack.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] mauricewal:
So if I want to buy a wireless kit I can use original wireless cover (I want to be sure it's water resistant) and then a other pad?

Any good advise?

The S4 pad is 50 euro in Holland so that's a big no go.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] mswlogo:
Mine charged to 90% the first time. But since then every time it has been at 100%.

I suspect if you put it on the pad fully charged (by for example taking it off and putting it back on for a moment). It sees it's fully charged to start with and never charges.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] JRCARRERAS:
At&T has the black one's. I ordered it on Wendsday, got it today.

Rectangle one, a little bigger than my phone so I can place phone fully on it.

I got it at Frys.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Xeio:
Same, I bought the official back+base kit, it charges to 100% and stays there.

I did have it shut off after it sat at 100% for a while the other day (base was blinking yellow at the time), but I only saw it discharge to about 96% before I moved it, so I'm not sure whether it would have re-engaged or not.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] kms108:
It means you also have the same problem, if you read some of the post most people are getting the same problem.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Xeio:
It sounded like other people have that happen every time. As of yet I haven't been able to reproduce the blinking yellow.

Even now it's sitting at my desk at 100% with the green light on, no discharging.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] kms108:
After a few charge testing the official transmitter and the OEM cover combination, the only way for me to get 100% and have the phone station on the charger for hours without flashing orange light, is to charge the phone from dead.

Does this one stop charging at 100% then recharges again when it goes down to like 90-95%? or it just keeps it at 100% all the time?

It says it's coming soon and that it "maintains its original style and slim profile". I was kind of hoping that is is a thinner version of EP-CG900IBEG, which I have tried and it is a bit bulky.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] kms108:
Samsung has been saying that a few months back, even before the phone was released.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] peaster3:
It is thicker than the original back as everyone has reported here. Personally, it gives the phone an extra heft that I like. If only there was a good looking case that fit it.

According to Samsung on Amazon it's the exact same thickness as stock. (in Q&A)

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] chippyuk:
I really doubt it will be the same thickness. I really cannot see how they can incorporate a coil into 1mm of plastic. The answers in the Q&A section are not from Samsung they are speculation based on text from Samsungs site, just look at the comments to the answers.

No other Qi back has been the same thickness as the original back. It's nice to dream but I really that is all it is!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] ponts:
I agree!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] eyecon82:
the only way i can think of it is they made the non-wireless back extra thick and skimped out on the material to add the coil in to make it the same size

that was one of the biggest complaints about the old wireless backs....that it was thicker and everyday cases would not fit properly
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] chippyuk:
Agreed, but it's not any thicker, there is absolutely no way you can get a coil in there and cover it in plastic. Still I hope I am pleasantly surprised.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] husky88:
Picture shows same looking thickness

The picture of the wireless back (look close at the shadow the part around the lens creates) looks the exact same as the stock back picture. The products Samsung uses for these pictures are likely the real thing. If the wireless back was thicker, the area around the lens would clearly be shown closer to flush with the lens. Here's to hoping it's the same thickness... fingers crossed.

A Samsung engineer with a translator would be very helpful right now...

Here is the FCC filing for the mini Samsung Qi charger:

https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/repo...&application_id=986909&fcc_id=A3L-EP-PG900IBU

[Click on RF Exposure Info]

You can see the size of this thing in relation to the phone... it doesn't nestle the phone like the previous charger. What I can't determine is whether the older charger has two coils on the inside of the device, or if it's just 1 coil like pictured in the mini filing. Anybody happen to know?

Some transmitter bases provide multiple overlapping coils (like pictured below) which provides better transmittance:

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] ravenofdoom:
Any chance you want to pry open the top/back of your charger and let me know how many coils it has? haha.

I've tried looking for the FCC filing for the original samsung Qi charger but can't find it... and no review I've found seems to indicate the coil arrangement inside the thing.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] eyecon82:
lol..sorry, but no.....it charged my new nexus 7 just fine when i had that tablet last fall
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] ravenofdoom:
Can your charger do >1 device at a time (e.g. two GS4's side-by side) - it looks big enough to fit them placed horizontally across the vertical length of the charger, but I'm curious if it would charge both).
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] eyecon82:
unfortunately, i dont have any wireless charging devices at the moment, let alone 2, so i can't test it :(
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] ravenofdoom:
Curious if there's anybody else with the Samsung Qi Charger that can chime in.... will it let you do two phones at once?

That would partly answer my "coil" question... since if it only charges if it's placed in the center (as opposed to two on each side), my guess is that it's only got a single coil smack-dab in the middle... which is a rather cost-cutting design.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] jkDave:
I guess it's all speculation until someone physically measures the device then right? I wouldn't underestimate their ability.

Official back cover (from att) and Nokia dt-900 works great. Charges to 100% each time, at least for the week I've had the charging back. However, do not order the Desk stand version - it won't work with the S5. I think it's because it's too small for the phone.

I will also say that, while it charges slower than when using the USB 3.0 plug, it charges faster than using a USB 2.0 plug (in my experience of course).

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Zylograth:
Well so far it seems like the charger works fine as long as you use a 2amp charger, like the one it came with or the one that came with the S5. The charger it came with for the power port in a vehicle, not so good, I plugged it in and the red LED was on for about a second and then went out. Looks like a fuse or something went bad inside the charger plug.

I got the multi surface suction cup mount but it appears to be a normal suction cup with a sticky ring placed around it, and it does not stick very well. Could be because the ring tends to bump up and allow air to get in. I am going to try and use the suction mount that came with my Exomount, as the suction cup is actually made of the sticky material versus a ring placed onto a standard suction cup.

And I had to use the sticker that came with it in order to get my Tech 21 case to stick to the charger, although it does stick very well now.

Will need to test more once I get a functioning car charger plug as the one that came with appears to be defective.

how long is it taking to charge from 0 to 100 using wireless charging?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Infoport:
eh. with bad support for cases, wireless back is overrated

I bought the official Samsung wireless charging back from B&H Photo, and it has arrived.

So far, it seems overrated. As has been said, it is too big for many cases, and in my car the wireless charging kept coming on, or at least re-notifying me it was on. This happened when it wiggled, and every time I unlocked it (requiring me to dismiss the notice)

As I am unlikely to want to carry the phone bare-with-just-the-back, I see myself not using the wireless back, the car mount for charging, nor the charging base. The car mount works OK as a holder, although generic and a little bouncy, but the "convenience" of wireless charging seems fleeting. Maybe something else will spur use of the charging accessories, but for now they seem to be inconvenient due to incompatibility with most accessories, and convenience is their main appeal.

"I am still waiting on getting my Samsung wireless charging back cover to test with.

I should be getting some receivers in the next couple days, and then I will be able to give you a little more info. Sorry for the inconvenience."

Guess we are paying the price for being early adopters of the wireless charging. My rectangle Samsung charger should be here this week. Wonder if the wireless back for S5 requires more amps than previous backs.

I read somewhere in this thread or the Cases that are compatible with the wireless charging back thread that the UAG will not fit.
