I'm modding the S4 to work with the Palm touchstone wireless charging dock and found out that even without modding the phone the touchstone has pretty strong magnets that hold the phone all by itself. When I get some copper tape I'll finish the mod and show my results.
If you have the touchstone you can use it as a magnetic dock like I am currently. It's pretty cool, also it holds the phone pretty strongly, In fact I can use the phone while it's on the dock. Even when charging (usb cable connected) it still holds the phone nicely...

I'd like to see your mods to the coil. I was playing with a spare coil and trying to figure out how to position near the bottom and make the electrical connections.
Thanks.

Do all the Palm touchstones use qi technology or is that what you're modding. I have already ordered the module from wiqiqi for the S 4 for $25 bucks but didn't like the big flat plate they sold. This would be a great alternative for work.

No, the palm is not QI. You will not be able to mix and match coils and chargers.. The Palm coil and Touchstone only with work together.
i´ve done it last year with the S3 and Note 2. Now i did it with the S4 and it works like a charm
Here are my Pictures.
great work! Which of the terminals is positive and negative, and also, which ports do you connect
i used .the left connector´s. It was more luck that it works because i don´t know why there are on the right side another connectors .
I couldn´t say which one is the positive and which is nagative because i didn´t test it. I´ve connect it like on my pictures and it work´s.
I´ve used the left connector´s because they are the same then on S3 and Note 2. I think the right connector´s are for NFC because the original Samsung Cover is "extreme" fat
With my solution there is a little camber in the Battery Case and nothing else. That means that you can use any nice thin Protection Cover for the S4 and it charges through the Cover.
That looks really nice.
Did you do any soldering?
Very cool. How effective is charging with this? How long does it take? Thanks.

I had one that looks identical to this.
It worked great for about 25 minutes...
The little gears that allow you to move the arms in and out (to grip the phone, and at least in the version I had) are terribly cheap and broke off with very normal use on the very first day. Now it's completely useless as there is no tension from the arms to actually hold something in place.
YMMV, tho.
That thing just looks atrocious! For such a slick device I would never use such a monster of a mount... it would consume the whole phone... and how do you charge?!

Is it a wrap around removable case or just a clear adhesive shield on the phone?
I currently have the Vroom case from Case-mate, and it would not fit into the iPhone 3GS holder for this mount correctly. I also tried it without the case and it would not stay secured. Earlier today I ordered a Gelli case from Case-mate which is said to have a little more of a snug fit, and I am wondering if this one may fit better. I am hoping it will give it just the little bit more to keep it inside the holder.

This is exactly what I did. Though, once the lights are out its surprising how much light still gets through even that. Granted its barely noticeable but just shows how bright the damn thing is.
I have that dock, it's so messy to attach the phone that I stopped using it - scared of damaging the USB port.
This is the "Official" one from T-Mobile. I love it. Works great as a daily alarm clock. Matches great with the phone.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using xda premium
Just get Spider podium bend it the way you like, and use the cable that came whit the phone to dock, since this is just a phone stand. And since you need a micro-usb cable for smth, just crab one from a local store for couple bucks.
http://www.breffo.com/product-information/product-info/
And here is my Spiderpodium: https://www.dropbox.com/gallery/11374881/1/Spiderpodium?h=d7c0f4
Best part, works whit every phone out there. so when you get a new phone, this is compatible whit it.
Rubber coating is great, and crabs on nicely. You could use this to mount your phone to bike, at least that's what they say, and it really is so firm that it would probably hold just fine. tough @ first glance it totally looks like its not going to hold it that well.
ust purchased a G2, waiting for it to arrive, but I always look around for accessories and gadgets. Those official T-mo ones are on ebay for decent price. Have some Hk knock-offs for cheaper as well.
I've got the cradle charger that was shown earlier on ebay earlier. It's also on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/GSI-Quality-Desktop-Charger-Data-Sync/dp/B004H6N7XA/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
It worked great except for the problem with plugging it in every night. There are no guides to help aligning the USB plug. I have to fiddle with it for a little while before it seats. This has done some very minor damage to the usb port over a year.
I upgraded to an extended Seideo Innocell 3500MAh and now the phone can not dock in the cradle. Also the 2nd battery charger can not accomodate the extended size battery.
Docking this phone is an absolute nightmare. Had a car holder for mine. Took some nerves the first couple of times to fit it.
Has anyone recently bought the genuine T mobile dock show in this thread? Tried eBay, Amazon and google but just get many knockoff versions - any help appreciated thanks.
The one mentioned in this thread is kind of clumsy as you all say.
The spider one not only looks weird but not sure if it can do landscape.

Thanks, but I think the genuine one is exactly the right size so should be easy to use. The knockoff ones don't appear to have any guide so the lining up the phone with the power jack is guesswork. I think the genuine one should work fine.

Saw it on The Verge. I'm wondering if the magnets will be able to hold it up with a bumper on. The image shows that the diameter of the orb is larger than the width of the phone meaning a bumper would stop it from touching the base of the orb... meaning the magnets might not be as strong. I would much rather wait for a video review of peoples experience.

I'm thinking you might need to take off the case for the magnets to latch onto the phone though. I'm worried even with the OEM bumper the phone won't sit properly.

I really hope the magnets will still work when using a case
I'm going to go out on a limb here and speculate that the magnets will still work with the thin TPU cases out there. Reason being, the Nexus 4, when nude, is as slick as greased moose poo and is going to require a fair amount of magnetic pull to keep it from sliding off of the Orb. The TPU cases will probably lessen the pull, but will instead add additional friction, so I'm guessing they'll cancel each other out.
Pure speculation, but that's how I'm rationalizing buying one

I assume they made the OEM bumper the way it is (thin as heck with very little lip) so that it would work with the OEM wireless charger. Only makes sense, but I wouldn't put it past Google/LG to mess this up.
What is the Battery status app being displayed? maybe it comes up when connected to charger 0_o

I laughed at the moose poo! It really does try to slowly sneak towards and edge if you leave it on a glass table or tiled area. I've had a few near drops.
Does anyone else question the usefulness of wireless charging? I think it's quite cool and all that, but it's hardly like plugging in a micro usb cord is especially time consuming. Does anybody know if it charges faster than micro usb? This may be a silly question, but can you charge the phone using both the usb and charging org, in order to charge it quicker?

May I ask if anyone knows which QI charging pad is compatible?
Samsung is releasing their own Qi charging pad/station pretty soon. I personally use the one from TYLT. It's been great with my Nexus 7 and my friend's Nexus 5.
I believe any QI standard charging pad is compatible.
^^^ correct

Well, when the Note 2 first came out I tried two different QI charging pads that were supposed to be compatible. While one worked partially and was impractical as it would connect/charge for a few seconds and disconnect randomly, the other would not work at all. Perhaps I'll wait for the Samsung one as I am sure that will be reliable.
Has anyone seen the measurements on the wireless backing. I have a few cases pre-ordered and hope they will work with the official back. On the Note 3 I had to get rid of the official wireless back and replace it with the Tylt wireless pad and the original back.
This is a good news.
Back cover
Thanks for the info
I just got my Note 4 today.
The wireless charging pins on the back look very close to the same as the S5.
I have a QI receiver for my S5 that I am going to try when I get home and see if it works with the Note 4.
Anyone else want to test it out in the mean time.

Very interested if the S5 one works so I can order some QI Battery Receivers if so
My local Verizon store had the wireless charge S-view cover for $50, a hell of lot easier on the wallet with the link posted to Expansys. Appreciate it !!
MY guess is that it won't fit most cases, so keep us updated.

Without a doubt the official Qi back will be at least 1.5mm thicker than the non Qi back making it incompatible with nearly all cases. The way to go is by just dropping a Qi receiver behind the original cover.

Spridell,
Any luck getting the QI receiver from your S5 to work with your new note 4? I'm hoping it does work so I can get one ordered for my Note 4 shortly after it arrives. I've been using one with my S4 for the past year plus and definitely don't want to add to the thickness of the Note by using the Samsung QI back cover.
Thanks!

The hard part is lining the receiver up in the back cover.. If you need some tips let me know. I have mastered this now doing it on 3 devices and friends phones
Does tap to pay work? Couldn't get it to with the YooTech I got.

I actually do not use tap to pay but if you order a receiver that supports Nfc then I don't see an issue.
That's what I thought doesn't seem to be the case.

Any reason you didn't just use double sided tape on the back side?

I tried that.. Trust me I've tried everything every which way.
Nothing held it in place perfectly like this did. Literally half a mm shift and it doesn't make contact. It has to be exactly precise.
This way it's really locked into place and ive used it on 3 different chargers and it's been perfect
Bought the same setup as you and i am experiencing an issue with thr charger...if i set the phone on the charger in landscape in the vertical slanted position it will charge for a while but then stop and i can hear a clicking that comes from the charger. Sometimes the charger will even cycle from charging to not and the blue light on bottom starts blinking.
Have you had any issues?

I should have added... I sent back that charger. It was terrible.
I am only using my CHOE 3 Coil Wireless Charger which is unbelievable. Huge sweet spot and never failed me in the 2 years I've had it. I think it's about $20 on Amazon.

Ahh ok. That makes sense. I guess i ought to return this one tooas it seems to be garbage. The charging coil itself seems fine though.
Thanks

I did this on my S4 with a hot glue gun by placing the receiver on the phone itself, put a few small dabs of hot glue on the wireless receiver then put on the back cover. Now when you remove your back cover the receiver will be attached in the perfect location.

That's an excellent idea and I thought of doing that but didn't have a hot glue gun. That would definitely be very accurate
Does it deform the oem back cover? I have the cheapo ebay receiver and the phone won't sit flat.
