So it just sets in there? There's no securing it down?

There is no real Need to. The back holds it in place. i thought of some thin 3M tape but would make it thicker. I have seen some thinner wireless receivers out there but they are hard to get and charge with half the power.

still has the bulge, looking for something with no bulge...

Could you please post a screenshot of the actual charging current using this receiver?

I have this one as well and the 'power qi' labeled charger I ordered came in today. Works great! 'Very' slight bulge but really hard to see. I was expecting worse, and think this bulge thing is overstated a bit.
I've got the Trident Aegis case which is pretty bulky and creates a good gap. Although a little more finicky (must be in the right spot) than without the case, it charges fine.
Overall I'm very happy...and I just ordered another charger.... my eBay seller in Hong Kong got the first one to me in 10 days! (I'm in the US).

What charger base is he using? Or do you guys use?

The insert took me 10 days to get...US here as well. Well worth the wait and way better then the one from samsung!
Like i said with the case you cant tell anything is there and without it you really cant tell either. I mean that tiny back would not close if it was really bad!
I am using the Nexus Charging Orb that i got when i order my nexus 4. Straight from the play store. Its a little pricey but its crazy awesome quality and direct from google. It is a 1000mA charger
I will see if i can get a charging screen shortly

I'm using the same charging receiver . Got it from an online retailer (fasttech) at much cheaper price.
quick delivery, but this is the first time i'm having a problem with what they sent.
This one is not working for me. Quite erratic. It just keeps on connecting and disconnecting the charging .
maybe I'm the only one receiving a defective piece. Will wait for fasttech's response before heading to aliexpress.

If you hate the "huge" bulge, just get another cheap back cover and cut a hole for the charger (with heated knife or something really sharp), then secure it with some tape. Put even the thinnest case on top and you're ready to go.
That is unless the case is transparent

Charging dock/cradle

I currently have a htc aria using a charging cradle to charge my phone when I'm home and about to get an inspire soon and was wondering if anyone has tried a this charging cradle for their inspire. I assume the desire hd and the inspire have the exact location for the usb port so it should fit fine? I'm trying to get the same cradle as my aria that would fit the inspire when I get it since the one I have for the aria works great.
Heres what I was looking at from eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-Sync-Cradle-Dock-Desktop-Charger-HTC-Desire-HD-/310274079688?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item483dc6bbc8#ht_4589wt_763
Looks pretty legit, I too am looking for a solid docking station in the sub $20 range

Found this if anyone is interested
I wonder if the phone will fit in that cradle if you have a case.....say the otterbox commuter.

Here's two photos I just took ... I unpackaged it. I don't like the feel of sliding the device into it, gives me the eebie jeebies hearing the sound. I'm afraid if I bump it that it'll break the usb port inside my phone
So its crap? also is it overly tight in the dock and is it stable
And what screen protector are you using

Honestly it's what I'd expect for $18 from HKG... I won't use it, I'm going to return it to Amazon. It's snug side to side, but you really have to get it just right to slide down onto the USB adaptor. This is common with any aftermarket dock, and always concerns me that sliding it on and off might damage after a while.
It'd be nice if it were a little better quality, but oh well. I don't like it, and won't be using it.
I have the Zagg invisible shield on the phone. I like it because of the ease of getting replacements if the device is replaced or if I have any issues with it. Got it at best buy for $20, but used a 12% off coupon and a $5 rewardzone certificate, so came in at about $12, which I think you can do better on eBay\Zagg.com lol... I just have instant gratification disorder, hehe
Grr now im off looking for a different dock. Ever since i got one for my iPad i just need them. Its so much simpler to charge =).

For an iPad yeah, but for a phone no. Every time you get a text you either have to pick up the whole dock, or undock it... to hell with that. Cord = better.

I finally received my cradle in today. Looks like the one I have for the aria, but the fitment is different for the inspire. Feels a bit loose around the sides and looks like there should of been a spot to have a 3.5mm audio jack next to the usb. Stability with the phone on the cradle feels like it is unstable if you touch the screen a lot with the phone on the cradle. It seems ok for what I'm using it for though. I only have it to charge while I sleep so it should be ok as I don't touch it. All in all, it could be better, but gets the job done.

Long List of Qi Chargers VS Vertical or Hor Dock

First I have seen several lists of Qi chargers for the Nexus 4
I have to ask because either I can't find them, or they were inconsistent
I heard eventually Google Orb will be out. In the meantime, Energizer Pad works (single or triple...although it looks more like double) and it can even work with a small to medium thick case like TPU
I did hear that LG pad didn't work. Then I heard it did. Then I heard it does with a whole lot of beeping
With all that, I do think I would try one, and at this point the Energizer....when you can find them. It seems Amazon did what Google eventually did. Lets you order, but says a month or so before delivery
Would you go that route. You do lose being able to easily look at the screen, like overnight
Or would you get a nice dock like I have always had

My first one is the Energizer. Similar to the Maxell one overseas. And I also have the LG verizon branded one, with the speaker dismantled/destroyed from beeping. To me the beeping was too loud in a relatively quiet office. They both work fine with the iBlason tpu case on. Oh and the Energizer doesn't have any audible beeps like the LG.
Warning on the Energizer. If using this charger, and you have a naked Nexus 4, the phone will slide off because the unit has a slight incline. Just use a tpu case or something like a old screen protector to grip the phone.
The LG unit works and looks better all around IMO. The footprint is smaller. The only negative is that the only way to disable the speaker is to destroy it and the phone gets a bit warmer than the Energizer.
But in the end, both do work.

The LG charger beeps to confirm that you placed the phone on the pad correctly. There is a visual mark as well on top of the LG unit so I preferred that and because there was no way to disable the beep unless I had to dismantle the pad and cut off the top of the speaker box and remove the silver disk under the top. In other words, there's no option to switch the beeping off.
I used this thread as reference to remove the speaker...well more like stop the beeping:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003137
And just to clarify, the Energizer I have is for the single unit.
I just picked up the LG unit at the local Verizon store yesterday. So far, it seems to be working perfectly. The only time it beeps is when I initially place it on the charger.
I do notice it taking longer to charge than with the stock AC charger, especially when just topping off.
I set it up on an armoire where I always drop my wallet and keys and have to admit that it is pretty cool to just drop the phone on it.
I wouldn't put my hopes in the wireless charging orb by google. I'm sure it'll be sold out in 3 minutes just like the phone.

I think the orb is a mythical creature just like the nexus pogo I waited so long for. I bought the lg charger and dismantled the speaker and it works awesome. Its got good grip and works with my case on. Does get a Lil warm like the previous poster said but not to warm that it worries me.

I'm still waiting on my device to be shipped (and may end up picking one up locally for a small premium) but I've heard the Nokia Lumia charging plate works on/off. I have two that I got that I'll try when I receive mine and report back.
I have the Nokia DT-900 wireless charging plate intended for the Lumia 920. And let me tell you it DOES NOT work well at all. No joke, I think it sucks power out of my phone instead of putting it in. I put it on with a 64% charge and came back an hour and 25 min later and it was at 60%. In the mean time I didn't pick it up, didn't receive any notifications...nothing.
The panasonic tm101 is flat and it finds your phone where you lay it. It has a bright blue light and im not sure it can be turned off. I like it. You can cover it up but i think it is 2nd most expensive to the Oregon Scientific clock.

The only problem I have with my white Dt-900 pad is when the phone is fully charged and I take it off the charging pad then place it back on I get the intermittent charging. If the Nexus is lower then 90% all is good!

Hello, I am a signature.

To «ORB» or not to «ORB», THAT is the question.

This is what it is stopping me from getting the Google ORB for my N4 >
I have a case (and if you don't, I commend you for your bravery). Not only I have a case, I have the Ballsitic Case, the sturdiest of them all, not intended to be taken off and on, on a blink, not at all.
And then I thought> the purpose for the orb is to avoid your self from the hassle of aligning the microUSB plug with the port and all, but if I have a case, what would be faster? To plug a cable to a phone with a case, or to incur on taking a case off in order to "avoid the hassle" of plugging.
It is more work for me to take the case off than it is to plug a micro USB cable, so no ORB for me...
Am I alone?
Imo, you don't need one. It's more of a luxury than anything. But if you like it aesthetically and have the extra dough, why not.
Sent from my Droid DNA
i have the extra dough, and still passed on it. it looks very cool but for me to be truely satisfied i need one for the office, and the house. not worth 140 to fit my want. cables work fine.
as most have said the orb isnt needed but im not gonna lie it looks cool as hell! im still undecided if im gonna drop the dough for it. I also need to confirm if the ringke fusion case will work with it too. so yeah, theres that....

I agree completely here. I would possibly consider a $40 charger but $70 is justification for the hassle of picking up a microUSB and plugging it in.
I have the Zens wireless charger and it works with the ringke slim case. I bought the Zens literally a week before the orb went up for sale. Ain't that a b*tch. I bought the orb anyway to have one at work and at home and to report back on a comparison.

wait until other people with the ballstic case have got the orb to confirm whether it works or not before deciding imo
Consider a dock instead. I'm happy with mine thus far. Less than half the price of a Qi charger, almost as convenient, but admittedly less futurist.
I am buying it because I had to replace my last galaxy nexus micro USB port because it went bad. I live in Florida and we have a lot of problems with corrosion. I cant tell you how many ports I've replaced over the years because of that I now have those silicon plugs on almost all my devices ports so I don't have that issue.

Although today I tried to beam with my N7 and it worked, the N7 have the Asus case that Google sells and both N4 and N7 had the case on. So it might still work even with the case on, I'm trying to see if anyone in town (Vegas) bought it so I can try it before buying it again lol.

I'm not sure if the Qi charger works through your case but keep in mind Qi/wireless induction coil has nothing to do with the technology behind beam So you wouldn't know if one would work just based on the fact that the other technology did work.

I do not have that case but this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38033518&postcount=1013 says it does. The orb does not "hold" the phone. It uses mostly friction and possibly some magnetism.

[Q] Anybody recommend a good wireless charger?

Need a wireless charger for my GS6, thanks.
I've had this PowerBot for a while and it works fine. Price varies a bit depending on the color your want. It may not be the fastest, but I'm OK with that as it does not get the phone too hot either.

I bought one of these based on comments on XDA, and bought two more after confirming that it is excellent. Each unit has 3 coils, so it reliably charges the phone in numerous different positions. It is grippy on both the top and bottom, so it snuggly holds the phone and stays securely on the table-top. It is small, but not too small -- the width is the same width of the phone and the length is about 75% of the phone's length. I always place my phone flush on the surface with the camera bump hanging off the top of the charger, and it charges beautifully. Finally, it causes no considerable heat and no whine or noise of any kind.
A couple things to note: (1) It does not come with a USB wall wart. It only has the charging pad and a micro-usb cable. (2) It does not work with Samsung's fast charging USB wall wart (not sure why). (3) There is a blue LED that lights up when it's activated, which might bother some people (I've covered mine with electrical tape).
What's wrong with the suggestions in the other threads?

I couldn't tell you because I haven't tried...and I don't have a metal case to test it. My wife has an S6 with a thin silicone case and, as you would expect, it works perfectly fine with that. I have an S6-edge, and I keep it bare. While I don't have personal experience with a metal bumper case, I can only speculate that this charger will work as good as the best in light of the 3 coil system. Good luck.

I tried the metal "Platinum" cases from BestBuy and none of my 4 Qi chargers could charge through it. The metal definitely seems to interfere.
EDIT: When you say "metal bumper", do you mean only the edge is metal, like the Spigen Hybrid Pro? If so then of course that metal would NOT interfere.

I bought this one from ebay in the UK thinking it would be the same, but it has 4 bright blue LEDs that are lit constantly when in use. Returning it now.

What a pity, someone likes leds, it can indicate you while charging, but if you want to use it in bedroom, no light will be better. The charger I bought only
ship to us and Canada:crying:
You can choose the 3 coil based wireless charger by CHOETECH as I am using it from last 1 month without facing any problem. There is no need for alignment as the Galaxy S6 starts charging when it gets in contact with any of these 3 coils. I bought it from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JA7HNZO/

NFC / Qi Wireless Charging Battery Leather Door Back Cover Case in BROWN

I just received mine and popped it on instantly.
Guys / gals, this is by far the best presentation I have ever seen in a case/back cover. Way better than OEM IMHO.
It's real leather (smells like a new car with leather interior), cut is fantastic, quality is amazing. I put it on and popped on to my CHOEtech 3coil Qi wireless charging stand and it starting charging instantly, no worries about placement or finding the sweet spot.
The packaging it came in is like a compressed cardboard or particle wood casing you'd keep cigars in. I got the BROWN one.

Hey would you or anyone else have a TYLT VU Charger ? I bought one Amazon when they were on sale but I also have 2 cheaper knockoffs Itian's. All 3 are working for me I picked up the Black Leather Back. But on the TYLT I have issue where the phone will connect to Wireless charging and then disconnect it might do this up to 3 times or 2x and once the screen turns off it will be connected and can tell by the Green Light. The Itian's just plan connect and don't have this issue. I also have a Nexus 6 and it connects with the TYLT just fine without that issue.
Not sure if's really a issue will give it time since I just got the Leather Back today will see how it perform's.
Well now looks like my Itian's are having the same issue but now it won't even connect the light will just Flash from Red to Blue no stop.
Does this feel "soft"?
Current price is 10.49 without wireless charging. How much was it for the wireless charging version? They are currently out of stock so cant see pricing for that option.

I paid $16 on eBay from a US seller. It does have a nice feel to it but really don't matter to me since mine will be a case 99% of the time. I decided for $16 why not since the sticker along is $10-$15.
FWIW, I too bought the $16 eBay back, and was just refunded by the seller today. It has connect/disconnect issues, and heats my phone up way too hot. Seller claims he is removing them for sale, and sending the batch back to distributor. FYI for anyone considering this product t.

I bought the same, paid $14, mine does not have the issues you mentioned. I use a ChoeTech 3coil stand. It is warm while charging until full, like all my Qi devices..
I've had the case for a bit over a month now, ordered the white to match my phone.
The good is that the color matches well, apart from the lines you can see where the leather is applied, it pairs nicely with the phone. The wireless charging works great, and it has a generous amount of wiggle room when placing it on a qi charger compared to my old S6 which was tricky to place just right. It also feels very nice in the hand compared to the textured back, and is much more grippy surprisingly, especially when the phone gets a bit warm, getting your hand a little sweaty.
The bad parts are that it is noticeably thicker than the OEM cover, and you can feel it when you place your finger on the power button to unlock it. The other part would be more likely my fault, since I choose white, but it gets very dirty and it can be tedious having to take it off every so often to clean it. The third and last part, three clips on my case have already broken. They are on both sides, near the bottom. Most likely from constantly taking it off to change batteries, and cleaning it every few days.
I got one white leather and 2 plastic one's, I have stopped using it as some members said they had their phone wireless feature dead after a few weeks, has anyone had this problem.
I got the same case in black from Amazon for $18. It came in the same package and box. The material was fake PU leather. Returned it
They must be taking a loss or something. They're now going for $25 without the charger (still not available)
