Nokia Qi Wireless Car Charger CR-200 - Nexus 4 Accessories

I'm surprised we missed this one. There's a new QI wireless car charger that's been announced by Nokia.
Available in May (possibly April) and retails for 69EUR
EDIT: Confirmed, looks like it's compatible with the nexus 4 (see post #11). NFC may be a little tricky though.
http://www.nokia.com/global/products/accessory/cr-200/

Interesting that this was missed in the mainstream news. As long as it fixes the issues that Nokia's home chargers had with the Nexus 4 it'd be something a great buy.

From MobileFun:
"we can confirm that the holder does feature adjustable holders but we do not have specific details on the minimum and maximum size range (we'll update this asap) Although anything close to the Lumia 920 will be suitable."
I'll keep the thread updated with any new relevant information.

Oh man, never thought of a NFC tag for my car dock. Keeping my eye on this.

Nice find! If this works with N4 and actually gains a charge with streaming music BT and navigation I am sold.

Same here, Im really only posting so this thread doesn't get lost in my CP.

Nokia's official blog says it'll be available starting April 2013.
"Known as the CR-200, this phone holder can be mounted on the dashboard or windscreen of your car and can be used in either a horizontal or vertical position – much like any other phone holder.
However, to save you time and hassle from fumbling for the power cable in the footwell, wireless charging is incorporated right into the design. You can leave the holder plugged into the power outlet, as you’re unlikely to be removing that as often as you would the phone. That means all you need to do the next time you sit in the driver’s seat, is slot in your phone to charge.
Additionally, the holder contains an NFC-tag that’s capable of launching predefined apps on your phone. For example, you can choose to automatically launch HERE Drive when you attach your phone – easy!
Retailing at around €69, the CR-200 comes in black and will be available from April 2013."

69 euros is like close to a hundred us dollars? As long as I can return it if it doesn't work I will be first to buy and try.

Anyone wish they would offer these in a light color like white/grey? My old Evo one got hotter than the surface of the sun sitting in my windshield on a long trip (I always took it down to put up a sun screen).

Awww yeah! Works with the nexus 4 (0:50)

Nice! Can't wait to test it.

This thing hardwired will be fantastic

I'm not sure if this is troublesome, but just before the one minute mark, the charger stops charging the phone for a really brief period of time.

It could be a number of things that could have caused that. For one, he could have been fidgeting with the car charger while talking and such. We can't multi task too well lol.
But it looked to be consistently charging after panning away.

The only knock is it looks like, just like the Owlpad, the cable comes out of the bottom of the charger. I really wish they would come out the back towards the mount (or better yet be like the Galaxy Nexus mount and go into the base) to better conceal the wire.
Even though I will be getting this when it comes out.

hopefully that is the only downside, im more worried about it being able to charge fast enough with gps on without overheating the phone like the owlpad.

Things like this have been around for a while. You need to install a "reciever" (basically an antenna akin to RFID tag antennas) to get the resonance right so the power transfers wirelessly. It's not just "drop-and-go", if it were, there'd be a lot more of them around. They work but I'm not 100% sure on the effeciency and performance in terms of "speed-charging" but they do work.

Not worth it
Actually I have one of these. The concept is cool, and I thought it was the greatest thing, not having to plug in your phone. But what they don't really stress in the ads is the fact that you need an appendage attached to your phone for this to work. And this appendage is not too small, changing the shape/size of the phone when pluged into its charging port, and also it's quite expensive to get if you want a new one. And this is not really a contact-less charger pad, mine has alternating strips where two of the three contact points on the charging appendage should touch or it won't charge the phone. I used it for a couple of weeks, then stopped using it because of how much pain in the back it was to use it.

[Q] Brodit Car Kit

I am looking at buying a Brodit Car Kit for my desire. Can anyone give any pros and cons who have actually used one.
I understand I may need a Proclip to suit, and does anyone know the level of charge that the thing delivers. Thanks.
I have an active Brodit Cradle. Not sure what level of charge it provides but its a well made product that was easy to install and with car home, google navigation and winamp running I lost no charge on my journey.
Thanks for that.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Just ordered one now with the appropriate Proclip for my car. Cost £51 inc postage from dsldevelopments. They had both items in stock whereas mobilefun are awaiting stock on the Proclip. Have spent the last 45 mins reading up on this v's the official htc car kit and this wins for me in that it's v highly regarded generally for a variety of phones in terms of it's build, fit and reliability and has a loyal user base unlike cheap alternatives. The official HTC kit has mixed reviews, mainly positive though but it's the sucker design that put me off... where I'm from, if you can clearly see something stuck on top of the dashboard or windscreen...it's a goner! The clip fits on the central console and is much more likely to be missed or seen as as something difficult to remove so more chance of being left alone.
Hopefully my experience will be as good as other users. Just hope it's delivered quick as both items are in stock.
I have been in touch with dsl myself and was going to use them. I may wait to see your findings.

I used dsl they were very good the only thing I can't get the brodit to do is to auto launch Car home when connected. Instead I use a locale work around.

I use Leedroid 2.4.1
The Locale settings I use are when Headphones are connected and Power source (ac/dock/car charger) is connected. (I do this as I always connect my phone to teh brodit and a line in for use with the aux in on my car)
Then the following settings are used
Brightness 100%
Car Dock Mode is Enabled and launched
Media Volume 100%
Screen Timeout Never
Volume 100%
Kit arrived on Friday morning so very quick, using standard delivery.
As for the fitting, the proclip takes seconds. The actual mount is a little fiddly to screw in, I lost one screw so had to buy more doh! Otherwise also easy fit.
It's very sturdy, the phone fits in very well, without any case of course, the swivel is very good and not loose. Fired up maps and navigation, was easy to use and just the right location for me (fitted to central console) Haven't used it for a journey yet, will see when going to work tomorrow but impressed so far.
Note : I'm running CM7 and the car home didn't launch automatically.
How do you set locales?

Oh I see...it's £6+, I'll leave it for now, will see if there is a solution as to why Car Home doesn't launch in CM7
As for the charging, yesterday had navigation running for 50mins approx and the battery which was at 31 went up to 49. However, this morning, didn't have the phone running anything just plugged in to charge at 21, after 70 mins it was at 81 So it's a v good charger.
Usage wise, the phone for navigation was in landscape mode, swivelled very solidly and was easy to use and read.
Only thing to note was because of the position I have it installed in, it obscures view of my rear window heater button but it can still be pressed and slightly obscures the radio display.
I've been using a proclip for almost a year and love it. It was the first accessory I bought (had one previously for my Diamond).
I use it only for keeping my Desire charged as I have Car Home set to auto-launch on bluetooth connect with my car. I'm currently running LeeDrOi 2.4.1 with no problems.
Sent from my LeeDrOiD powered HTC Desire using XDA App
Well it's been a week and can only echo my previous comments that the Brodit kit + proclip are well worth a purchase. Very solid, sturdy and useable. I have RAC Traffic running most of the time which unfortunately doesn't work in landscape mode (will be sending comments!) and also use navigation in landscape mode, the swivel functon is not loose at all and the best part of the whole kit is that the charging is the same as charging on mains, if you were in the car 2 hrs approx. the phone would be fully charged. V pleased with that.
Hope my comments\experience have helped.
I can only concur with all the comments made. This is a sturdy piece of kit that does a great job.

I have the Brodit, with the cigarette lighter plug (there is also a direct connected version). Charge is around 400 m.a. so not bad! Reason to have the cigarette version is that my phone changes more often than my car - created an extra cigarette lighter connector hidden in the console (Citroen C5)
I've got the direct connect version, which is great as well.
It charges the phone at over an amp.
Although a bit tricky to connect the cables, totally worth it

Nokia wireless charging stand

So I bought this today at the Microsoft store. I have my phone on the charger right now. It seems to work pretty well so far but I'll see how it is after a few days. Got it from the Microsoft store for 25 bucks but I had two 25 dollar gift cards to knock down the price. It's 70 bucks but if you have the cash I would say it's a nice investment. I got the black model and I must say it looks real nice with the Nexus 4 sitting on it. There is also a white one available as well but amazon seems to only have it in black.
Here's the link if you want to check it out.

How secure is it on the stand? Does it charge just as fast as the wall charger?

it's very secure. It's a very sturdy stand so it's not going to topple over with your phone on it unless you don't have it sitting on something stable. Can't really say if it's faster or slower right now but it seems to be charging decently.
Thanks. Can you also check to see if it continues to charge after it reaches 100% or if it cuts off and waits for the phone to run to 95% or some lower percentage?

It works but doesn't work at the same time. I've noticed that you can't have the nexus 4 sit directly against the plate. You have to angle the bottom of the phone forward a little bit or else it drops in and out of charging. I picked this up for a third of what it costs so not a big deal but After having it for almost 2 days now I would say it's probably not worth the full price but if you can get it for a steal than I would check it out.
Thanks for the feedback. I was thinking of using it as a car dock but if it's so unstable, then probably it's not feasible.

Just bought this from the AT&T store (I have a FAN discount, so I got it for 25% off). Charging works great (video walkthrough incoming) but I can't seem to get the NFC to do anything. Have you tried anything with that?

download anytag nfc launcher app and you can have the nfc tag on the stand launch any app you desire.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQj5dKvi0hs watch the end of this video to see what I mean. This guy does it with the droid dna.
I have one too and i have found it to work great, just set it and its fine, at first it may shut off every few seconds or so butt just leave it be, turns back on instantly and after a few minutes or so, it starts working flawlessly, i have noticed a slight charge slowdown but i will do a full comparison soon.

Thanks - the video is what tipped me off. On the Lumia 920, the NFC tag is near the top of the device. On my Nexus 4, it's at the bottom, just like the DROID DNA. After I watched the video I was able to get my phone to read and program the NFC tag.
I'm going to keep this thing around and try out a suggestion I read elsewhere that if you raise the phone up a couple of millimeters, it works fine.

Just got mine today and I have the same problem with my Nexus 4. Does not seem to want to hold a connection and charges for a few seconds, then off for a few seconds. I would stay away from these if you have a Nexus 4 as it seems to be a crapshoot whether it works with your N4 or not.

I have the same problem. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this charger if you own an N4.
I don't understand why people keep buying the DT900. The problems have been mentioned time and again with the frequent disconnects and the extremely slow rate of charging. Newer hardware versions (Rev 11 and 12 I reckon) of the N4 have been reported to be working fine. It's just not worth the trouble even at that price. There are other QI chargers available for around 20.
It's on sale again at att :thumbup:

Works great for my N7, so when I ordered two N4s my dumb ass ordered 3 from the AT&T website, and am getting the same issue with the two that I unpacked. Hopefully the AT&T store can take them as returns.
I picked one of these up for 13$. I don't recommend this charger either. If it is not sitting on the charger just so it will just cycle charging/not charging. If you look at a photo of the phone with the cover off, the battery is pushed down to one side of the phone.(lower left corner of phone looking at screen.) The charger works best for me when i position the phone so the left edge is lined up with the edge of the charger. Once it gets in the 90 percent range the charging rate really slows down, like a percent or so an hour. It WAS working good for me until.....
I got tired of searching, but I had read a thread where people were stating that the phone starting switching through apps, opening and closing and doing weird stuff. Well, it started happening today to me. Somewhere along the line it changed a setting and i lost my nav bar. Tried for hours to find what setting it changed, but never did. Imagine trying to navigate around your phone with no home or return button. PITA. I flashed a updated rom to fix it. What was even worse is I set it on the charger when i had TWRP running and it started cycle screens there also. Considering that it changed my navbar settings, scary what it could do with TWRP.

LG V10 will soon have Wireless Charging!

http://phandroid.com/2015/10/14/lg-v10-wireless-charging-back-cover/
Appears as though it'll be made available over seas first, but coming none the less.
Hopefully we will see those stickers pop up on ebay for $10 or so to enable the wireless charging? Whats the time frame for something like that?
Well I'd say no we don't have any wireless charging sticker options yet, because the pin locations are a bit different than previous LG devices. Though it's only a matter of time, from the videos and photos I've seen of the back of the device without the cover and the inside of the cover, There is definitely a set being utilized for the nfc antenna that comes attached to the battery cover and then another set that are not being touched by anything.
I reached out to LG this morning in regards to the back cover and they gave me the very generic response that they do not know of a wireless back cover and they don't know if or when one would be released...
Wow, can't believe the V10 doesn't have this by default! LG behind again in putting in the most valuable feature IMO. Wow, wow! Was ready to pull the trigger on the V10 too! But this is a must have for me.

I've been using Wireless Charging since 2012 first with the Droid DNA. Then in 2013 I got Verizon's LG G2, which also had wireless charging build in. Got tired of the G2, and finally got the G4 and lived without wireless charging for about a month or two. Was hell! Hated plugging it in every night. One night, I reached over to get the G4, and the dam wire dumped everything off my nightstand around 2am. It was a bloddy nightmare! Luckily, the Chinese came along to save the day and offered the first G4 wireless sticker, that didn't work, without a mod.
So now comes the V10, and no wireless charging? Haven't you seen the Samsung commercials mocking the Iphone for no wireless charging. This is 2015, not 1960 for crying out loud! lol
But I must say, at least the V10 has a fingerprint reader. That's getting closer to being as good as the Samsung Edge Plus. But LG again fails to have the best technology on their flagship device.
@MicroMod777 hope you get it cause we need some devs over here. You won't be disappointed it's a great phone.

Wireless chargers still has to be plugged in to an outlet so it's no different than having to plug your phone via the charging port. But you can just lift the phone off the wireless charger blah blah blah, big deal. It takes less than a sec to unplug your phone. You should probably clear your nightstand to avoid dumping all your crap, and was it set at the end of the table that you had to reach over and drag everything to the ground? Just wait for the case if you're so picky.

What's the complaint here anyway? Were talking about a feature that will be supported imminently. Whether with an OEM back cover to support it or 3rd party sticker, It'll be the same slow identical charge any other wireless device charges at. Worse case scenario, you have to plug in a usb for a few weeks. And if you jump on the LG promotion, you wont even have to do that. You can charge the secondary battery in the cradle and swap as needed. In my eyes, that's better than wireless charging... No wait other than the time it takes to swap the battery and reboot the phone.

Well see by January 2016 when I qualify for zero down with T-Mobile and do the On Demand Jump. Right now I can't justify spending $300+ for a down payment on it without wireless charging.
BTW, last night I tried to port the V10 software to the G4! Didn't go so well. lol Almost thought I bricked my G4. But thankfully I recovered it.

Don't see why phones would be getting rid of it. Wireless stickers are always cheap and don't work as good as the real thing.
Well see by January 2016 when I qualify for zero down with T-Mobile and do the On Demand Jump. Right now I can't justify spending $300+ for a down payment on it without wireless charging.

I don't know either companies growing cheap it is disappointing. I am sure they will provide a wireless charging back as they did with g4

The question is, which would you rather take: wireless charging (will it be fast wireless charging) or the Qualcomm’s QFE2550 closed-loop antenna tuning solution, known as Qualcomm TruSignal antenna boost technology. Let's not forget, 1 hour 5 minutes to go from 0 to 100%, currently. I figured that's what's on the inside of my back cover, but I could be wrong. Every time I walk in best buy, I see the new antennas you slap on the back of iphones/galaxys.
Personally, I've used wireless and wired. I've got galaxy S6 active and love the wireless for work, only because my plug doesn't drop behind the desk when I disconnect.
But, wireless isn't necessary for me. It might be for the rest of you.
Off topic, I'm much more in love with the 808 with 4GB ram then anything. I've got 30 apps running and I don't see any lag. ...yet. no aggressive memory killing the apps, which I love. Yes the gpu isn't as powerful but I haven't found anything that slows it down (I'm looking at you, modern combat 5). The 4GB ram and 64GB base is just making this phone bad ass. I bought it for the camera and movie capabilities. Removable battery and microsd slot just make me love it more. Just waiting for my stabilizer to come in from Amazon for my tripod.
Does anyone know how to charge while the phone is off ?

People in other forum saying if you plug in your phone, then you can swtich it off, but you can't do it the other way around.
