[Q] QI Charging Mods? - Nokia Lumia 1020

Anybody tried to add the charging coil to the factory housing? I remember seeing a mod for the 925 to add it, just wondering it there's one for the 1020. I'd love to be able to use some different cases and keep the wireless charging.

[Q] Qi Chargers?

I have seen lots of Qi chargers which only support single position charging (meaning that if you lay down your phone slightly away from the center of the pad it will stop charging), and I think that it wouldn't realistically be any better than just plugging it in since it is such a hassle lining it up just right. Now I have been looking around the internet for some time when I came across this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oaXcJZgmp4
Now in this video, what is demoed at the CES 2013 Qi booth are wireless chargers which are not single position meaning you could theoretically place the phone at the corner of the pad and it would still charge. So my question is when and where can I buy one? I currently have a nexus 4 and I would really like to get into the whole wireless charging thing, but I don't want a single position charger.
You tried searching? I'd like this too and it's the only reason it's keeping me buy a charger for it

how about the panasonic QE-TM101? it has a movable charging coil which will detect the location of your phone and move in to charge it no matter how you place your phone.
i've got one and it works great.

Charging wires

Hey
I need some help, my charging wire has completely broken, and I am looking for a new one. IS there any where that still sell this wire? Otherwise my tablet has pretty much been rendered useless if i cannot charge it.
Will any wire work with the charging plug that is USB and what ever the other end of the wire connector is ? I don't know where to find such a wire to replace my broken one.
Please help

That's for the charger too, and non-genuine cables have a tendency of not working

Fair point - only need the wire, i just ordered the wire from amazon Thanks for the help guys.
Good luck, if it doesn't work, you might need to look for a genuine cable, Ive heard a few people using generic ones having problems

Just a charging wire... look at the reviews and see which one you determine is best suited for you.

Wireless

What is the best charger to get for this phone?
Nokia Wireless Charging Plate DT-900 $25 or the Tylt Vu $52. I am probably getting the Tylt Vu because of the design. The both operate at 12 volts

What's the problem with the stock charger?
I think what the OP meant was "What's the best wireless charger".
Stock charger works great if you don't mind the cable. I'm impressed with the fast charge.
Why not just go with the Samsung one?
Samsung also has another one that's round and has lighted side that shows if charging or fully charged.
I'm so new to this wireless charging gambit. I read about Ikea doing wireless furniture. Sorry. I'm drunk. I can't wait for the future

Fast Charging Desk Cradle

Have done a lot of searching on Amazon and still am unable to locate a good quality Type C to Type C 5V 3A desktop cradle. For that matter, I am unable to find a good quality cradle period. Anyone else have a suggestion?
They seen to be thin on the ground at the moment, any by thin on the ground I mean non existent...

I would not trust a cradle like that to hold a phone as large as the Nexus 6P to hold it just by the USB-C port.
Iam also looking for something like this. Iam thinking buying one that has type c end and connect the OEM charger that might work
I purchased the NXET dock after the review I read from Benson Leung giving it 5 stars. My first post so I can't post a direct link yet, but search 'NXET® Type-C Dock' on Amazon. The only thing I dislike is the cable is wired to the charger and cannot be removed. I had thought having only the Type-C port holding it up would cause issues, but I haven't had any problems and it charges pretty darn fast.
There's also one from Kidigi. Its similar if not the same as NXET's Type-C, but keep in mind Kidigi's first release wont fast charge and don't meet usb-c specs.
I don't think there's a proper fast charging dock yet. I'm using this spigen cradle which has a slot behind to plug in your charger and works well.

You'd think they would be able to just use a USB-C port on the back as well so that the dock simply acts as a cable extender of sorts. That way you could use whatever fast charger you want.

Okay, so it's not a charging cradle, but it only cost $2.79, and my stock charger plugs in just fine. Even sprung for one for the wife's MXP.

Does the 2nd wireless charger have a magnet in it to hold the watch in place, similar to the OEM watch charger?

How well does it hold the watch in place then? Would it be easy to accidentally bump the watch band and cause the charging to stop?
Not available here yet in UK
Mobile fun say it’s due in 1-2 weeks and will cost £86 with VAT

Would you recommend it over the OEM watch charger?
Does it come with an adapter and cable?
-If not, is it USB-C or micro?

That’s good as the one that was out with note 9 didn’t come with any cables
Is this thread about the official charger?
