Just in case anyone else runs across this, the Uniden wireless charging base, UN904 looks promising, but I can attest to the fact that it does not work for us. Sucks too, because they were normally $30, on clearance for $15 at your local Walgreens. I picked one up and could get the charger to see the phone (LED turns from green to red) but the phone never went into charging mode. I even left if a while to see if it would kick in and it just slowly drained as usual. So I returned it. Just thought I'd share.

UN904 DOES work
I just received mine and it charges the LG Nexus 4 Just fine . You just have to have to face the USB port side of the phone towards the "Uniden" logo. Will post a YouTube video soon.

I would like to know about this too! lemme know if youre having trouble posting links (I can do it for ya, send me a PM)
Any idea what the power requirements are? as I can't seem to find any info.
Could you please let me know if the power adaptor can handle 240v AC ?
Thanks!
RE: Power requirements
Looks like it does.
The AC Adaptor on the one I got reads:
"SWITCHING AC/DC POWER ADAPTER"
Model FLD0710-12.0V1000mA
I/P: AC 100-240V 50/60HZ 0.5A
O/P DC 12.0V 1000mA

Notes on operation
Also, weirdly enough, it only seems to work when it is on a conductive surface: It worked fine on my work desk (it is laminated metal) but refused to power the kitchen table until I placed a metal lid under the charger (possible grounding issue???)
I have recorded both videos of the charger working and the grounding phenomenon, but cannot post direct links yet, I will PM the kind gentleman who offered to post them for me.
I will continue the experimentation and report back

by the way, did you managed to get it fully charged? Are there any issues like the nokia charger where it cycles between charging and non-charging?
Re: youtube
Thank you for posting the links
Sorry about the video quality: took the video with a cheap point and shoot during breaks at work.
Seemed to be charging OK at work. Just brought it home, set it on a metal plate (in the future, I might just glue tin foil to the base), and its working fine again. Does not seem to have any cycling so far. Will report in the morning on the charging status.
Overall - a good use of $10
I can't believe it! IT WORKS!
I picked up one of these Uniden UN904 chargers from Amazon because this post in another thread claimed it worked with the Nexus 4:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34630397&postcount=433
I thought, "what the heck, it's only $5, shipping included." The Amazon listing actually described the item as a Wireless Gear 5WC800, but when it arrived it was actually a Uniden UN904. From looking at the pictures I'm sure it's the exact same item, just rebranded for Uniden. The problem is, it didn't work at all. By playing around with how I placed the Nexus 4 on the charging pad I could trigger the charging light on the pad to turn red (charging indicator) but the phone would not charge and the charging indicator on the phone never came on.
I was about to give the charging pad to a friend that has an iPhone 4 when I read this thread tonight. Excited, I tried putting the Uniden charging pad on a steel cookie sheet before attempting to charge my phone. No go. I tried putting it on a stainless steel frying pan. No go. Then I tried putting it on an aluminum non-stick griddle pan. IT STARTED CHARGING! I think this charging pad needs a non-ferrous (not iron, not steel) metal underneath it in order to charge the Nexus 4. So tried putting it on the sheet of aluminum foil. IT STILL CHARGES! Then I cut a small rectangle of aluminum foil a little smaller than the back the of charging pad and scotch-taped it to the back of the pad. AND IT STILL CHARGES! I'm stoked for only $5.

I wonder if we can use this trick to make the Duracell Powermat work with the Nexus 4. If anyone has the Powermat they should try putting it on a sheet of aluminum to see if it will work.
Also, after a bit of experimenting, it seems the thickness of the aluminum seems to make a difference. My Nexus 4 seems to charge faster when sitting on my non-stick griddle versus a sheet of thin aluminum foil. Plus, the charging pad is less finicky when on the non-stick griddle. When on the griddle, it will charge my Nexus 4 in both orientations (USB port facing the Uniden logo and also facing the opposite direction). When on the aluminum foil, it seems to only charge when my Nexus 4's USB is facing the Uniden logo.
I need to do more testing, but I gotta get to sleep. Will try again tomorrow.

Same exact findings here. Was going to trash the charger until I put it down on an aluminum pot cover and it started working. Ironically I just bought the wcp-700 from Verizon today.

Update - Mini product review
OK, I took one for the team and ordered this August 11. It arrived August 22. Estimated delivery was September 5.
First impressions:
Seems OK. After all, it is just a plastic housing with a coil and control/driver IC inside. Well packaged for mailing. Arrived via USPS. Nothing loose or rattling. Only content was the pad and an adapter cable. No power transformer. I plugged it into a 2 amp source. The blue power led lit up immediately. Placed the phone on the pad, phone indicated charging. No sound. No beep. Phone was likewise quiet. Running CM2. Position is of course kind of touchy. Best for me was when the top of the phone was aligned with the top of the charger. Easy to remember. After about 5 minutes, phone is definitely charging. No concept yet on charge rate/times.
Surface is slick. On any slant the phone will want to slip off. Temp fix was to stretch a beefy rubber band around the charger to act as a "stop". Proper fix (for me - YMMV) will be those little plastic bumpers used on the back of cabinet doors. Only other thing to do is a bit of black plastic spray paint from the basement.
Time will tell if it is reliable. But it was reasonably priced, delivered quicker than promised, and worked out of the box.

yes, i found it quite good, i would recommend one for an office job, just place it on top
the charger will beep then the phone to for successful connection, you can feel the magnet pull it gently, two lights for connections
i found out it stop charging a few times must be when i moved it or it would be a bit fidgety with how i placed it, move it 20cm away and try again till i get the beeps
my nexus charger was squealing with it was connected, i charge by my bed.
will buy another soon and open it and make a better mould for my phone.

I believe receiver is for phones that aren't qi enables, you can add it to your phone so that it can work with a wireless charger.. it adds the induction to the battery of your phone i think. Useless for us cause ours is built in.

Does it let you mute the beep?
Thanks
you can delete the one on the phone but there is no option to mute it on the charger, maybe if you opened it and disable the speaker
, indicator light on the phone would be better.
Can someone explained this message please?
2. Charging Pad Only, the receiver is not included here.(Such as Samsung Galaxy S3 / S4 / Note II, buyer need buy another wireless charging receiver.)
Is there another accessory needed to charge a phone/tablet or it just means you should first own e QI charging phone? Is this the "receiver"?
edit: I am with Nexus 4, does it have the receiver out of the box?
Thanks.
Nexus 4 has the "receiver" built in. It's an induction loop - a wire coil "tuned" to the Qi standard so it matches the coil in the charging pad so current can be induced in the receiving coil, providing power to charge the phone. For some phones (including those Samsung ones mentioned, but also iphones & most others) that don't have inbuilt receivers you can get cases with receivers inside.

I ordered 1 on aug 13 so mine should arrive soon. Thanks for letting us know its ok. A pic would also be nice
Pic - it looks EXACTLY like the pic on Amazon. The dimensions of the plastic housing are 6 x 3.3 x .35 inches.
One thing I did notice last night. I had it on the nightstand and the blue flashing LED is very bright in a dark room. I covered it with a sheet of paper. Hopefully when I spray paint it black that will be less of a problem. It's rainy here today so I may wait till later on to do that.
I hid the charging pad behind one of those acrylic picture frames. Works fine from behind it. Excuse the crappy old phone pics.

How thin is this thing? I am thinking I can tape the charger to the back of the cradle and then put the phone over it and slide in the side grips on my cradle to clamp the phone.so I don't have to plug my phone in every time I get in the car..

Hello friends. I tried searching and didn't find anything I was looking for. Perhaps I just wasn't looking in the right spot, so feel free to call me an idiot and paste a link.
I just received a speck case and tried to use it on my wifes nexus 5 wireless charger. It is the square one she ordered from google. NFC works through the case but that charger does not. Is there any info out there that shows what cases work w/ what wireless charger? I am basically looking for something to charge at night that doesnt NEED to be held by magnets, but it would be nice. I am also looking for a car mount that NEEDS to be held in place by magnets and charge wirelessly. I am aware of the DIY threads, but if the charge wont take because of my case then it is a moot point.
Money really isn't an issue, I just want things to work. I am on my 4th day w/ the Nexus 5 and loving it. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I have a Speck Ultra Hybrid case in my Nexus 5.
My gets charged normally with the case. Never had any problems.
But my wireless charger is not that from Google. It is a generic chino. It works fine!

@kuthedude - the speckcase doesn't look to be too thick - odd that it wouldn't work with the nexus charger. I use a case (Spigen neo hybrid) on my Nexus 5 with the nokia wireless charger and it charges just fine (it doesn't have magnets though). (I assume wireless charging works if you remove the case.)
Try moving the phone around on the charger to see if it works with the case?

I believe he said that's not what he wants.
He wants the foil pad you attach to your phone then he can put his flip battery cover on.
Vs replace that with a charge back.
I had a pad on my Note 3. I'm willing to bet they will have then the beginning of next year.
You can always get a universal qi receiver. I've seen them on Amazon that plug into the micro USB port and sit underneath the back cover or between the phone and a case.

I was faced with the problem as you. I ordered the official Samsung wireless charging back, but it would not fit in my Seidio case. I returned the Samsung back and ordered a bare charging coil that will fit under the standard back. No problem with charging or any other functions and it fits in my Seidio case.

WHich charging coil do you recommend? WOuld it charge at the same rate as the Samsung version? Will I also loose NFC functionality if I did it this way?

This is the one that I'm using:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R3WK2LU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Not sure about the charging rate compared to Samsung. It is Qi standard so I would guess there is little difference. It claims 600mA. It is NOT a quick charge, more like an overnight charge. I have not tested the NFC part but the answered questions say that it is OK.
I have the same problem with my spigen case, now I got a hold of the s charger back. I'm really torn now, as I love the little stand the spigen comes with, but the official samsung back on the s charger pad wide seems to charge in double quick time.
I see the suggested workarounds and might consider them, but still nobody knows of an actual case which fits the note 4 with the wireless back?

There is a huge thread in this subforum with a dozen of pages referencing cases that fit the charging back (yes they exist) and various workarounds. Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...se-note-4-samsung-qi-charging-t2958395/page13
I just moved the coil from the Samsung charging back into the regular back, and it's no thicker than it was without the coil, and so any case could continue to fit - whether it will charge through the case is another matter.
any with a 2-3w charge output? 600a would take forever.

Moving the coil to the stock back is really the only way to go. It charges fine and the NFC works.
I went for month trying cases that fit that bulge and even the ones that "fit" threatened to pop off at any moment.
Here is a guide to moving the coil:
