Official Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Accessories - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

AndroidCentral has some pictures of some of the new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Accessories:
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsungs-new-galaxy-note-4-and-note-edge-accessories
TheVerge has some info on the bejeweled back covers and the LED Covers:
http://www.theverge.com/2014/9/3/6101321/galaxy-note-4-swarovski-crystal-back-accessories-announced
It looks like the LEDs on the LED Cover are just around the top portion of the flip, not all over it like the HTC Dot View.
Video talks about the Gear VR Headset, Gear S Watch, and Gear Circle:
The Qi Cover is separate like last year. The S View Covers are probably the same.

Connecting points are horizontal this time. It was horizontal on Note 3.

Dock?
Curious if they will release a dock? I have one for my Note 3 that I will be trying first thing once the Note 4 arrives.

If you're talking about the OEM desk dock, it won't work because the Note 3 dock is USB 3.0 and the Note 4 is USB 2.0.

Anyone have an idea of when the official accessories will be available, like the wireless charging back? Not sure how long I'm willing to go without wireless charging on my Note 4.

That would be my first thought too, but I currently have a USB 2 dock that works great for the Note 3. So, I'm remaining cautiously optimistic that it will work. I would like to ditch my Chinese knock-off dock with an official Samsung dock to gain 1920*1080 output. My knock-off dock only outputs 1280*720; but it is a fraction of the cost of the official dock...
So, I'll try my current dock when my Note 4 arrives and post my results. Then, if it does work, I'll spring for the official dock...

Is it weird that I'm only getting this phone because of that LED wallet cover thing?

most official Samsung accessories for the 4 are available now. Qi wireless charging covers on the 20th of this month.

Where is a dock or MHL 3.0 adapter available? You all realize it supports up to 4K @30hz display output? I can't seem to find any 3.0MHL. Also, anyone know if the miracast/allshare cast has improved in anyway ??

neither the LED or the Crystal covers are available yet. the Samsung USA Mobile rep told me that the accessories site for the 4 won't go live until "next week", but he probably felt pressured into telling me that over the phone.

Some Accessories are being listed now on Samsung and the 50% off coupon works. See my post in the other thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56001873&postcount=3

OEM battery and kit is on backorder
Anyone try to price match at it Best Buy and pick up in store? I imagine they don't honor the promotional pricing.

The old dock of my Note 1 works as expected with Note 4

List of tested induction charger for Nexus 4

Hi all, i've bought this wireless charger to charge my Samsung Galaxy S3 (with the included coil, it works), AND my brand new LG Nexus 4, and for this smartphone, it doesn't work.
Here the link:
http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160923480453
It claims to be QI compatible, but mine doesn't work with my Nexus 4... Anyone else tried this charger ?
wow, that thing adds wireless charging to a phone that doesn't have wireless charging. that's pretty cool. sorry it didn't work with the N4 tho

yes, it works because Samsung Galaxy S3 already have a special pinout just under the backside cover.
This pinout is intendented to be used with the official charging kit wich will become available in few weeks from Samsung.
But others manufacturers have not wait much longer to create their own kit for Galaxy S3
If delivery works fine, i will receive an other wireless QI charger tomorrow... A philips one... I will post here if it works.
buy the lg pad at any verizon store. its 1000ma and only 50 bucks.

So if i need it, i'll try to get one on eBay
Thanks for the post. I had actually been looking at this one on eBay. It's only $50usd shipped in the US ebay. I'm sorry you bought something and ended up waisting your money, but I appreciate you sharing your experience with others so we don't make the same mistake.

The Philips charger come with an additional "bumper case" that add the wireless charging capacity to Iphone 4 and 4S.

The Oregon Scientific QW201 "Time & Wireless Charging Station" works to charge the phone.
http://www2.oregonscientific.com/ca...-prod-Time-and-Wireless-Charging-Station.html
It also has a few other neat features like remote thermometer. However I'm returning mine for a few reasons.
1. the atomic clock set didn't work
2. viewing angle extremely limited
3. bright blue charging indicator
I'd probably have kept it if not for #1.

Don't think it works, otherwise all of us would have swooped them up by now lol. For one, I don't think it reads anywhere that it's qi standard.

Ive been following the other threads on qi chargers for quite some time and most of the ones that are not working either has :
1) contact type charging (i.e sleeve with metal contactor to the charging pad)
2) wireless charging/qi standard but with lower rating for battery capacity (i.e nokia for example, rated at 300 mAh)
from the looks of it, this doesnt look like its a contact type..so there might be a slight chance that this might work..here's one sold in amazon :

Wireless charger does not interfere with NFC & different types of Qi receivers

Wireless charger third party does not interfere with NFC.
The base plate is 1500milliamps and wall adapter is also 1500milliamps and recieving plate for s4 is 1000 milliamps and actual power recieved by s4 checked by using galaxy charging app is about 640milliamps with about 35% loss.
The s-view cover fits nicely with the recieving plate but is tricky to put back on so be careful and dont break the glass by pressing too hard, adjust the position of the plate and close the cover. the flip case if it remains open slightly then crease the folds by your fingers and keep closed with screen facing down overnight and case wont remain open.
enjoy your wireless charging s-view cover with this third party add on.
see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz6KBH-eDFk
my original upload avbout the wireless charger and how to insert it for newbies and working with the s-view cover http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=reYUIN_2nho
mods please note making a separate post as the link gets lost in 28 pages and more of the wireless charging cases post and everyone asking same questions again and again. so making separate post for my case and add on which works and all queries are answered in the first post itself.
have a great weeekend and buy this great accessory from where ever you get it but check the milliamps as on ebay there are many with lower output so check base and recieving power carefully.
In my video description i have linked some cheaper options from same seller and seller was kind enough to give discount code listed on my youtube video. PLEASE NOTE I PAID FULL PRICE MYSELF ON PREORDER plus extra for special delivery, so dont blame me if you dont get discount. Thats just a bonus if you get it. I paid full price at launch for the s-view cover as well at £45 in a three store when i got my phone.
edit 30 may 2013: it works fine with NFC tags as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjcygHXvlQQ please watch out for my new upload on saturday for new receiver and base plate
further edit for new uploads on 30 may 2013:
yes there is a slight reduction for NFC launching difference but in practise it still works. see new upload for difference with and without wireless charging receiver in place and see the signal attenuation yourself and see if the distance is fine for you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFW7U5W5GIk
also another upload to show that it fits the standard back the phone comes with which is a snugger fit than the s-view case shown in my earlier videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sk2aXHWn7g
edit 1 june 2013:
here is a new thinner qi wireless charging receiver i bought with another white base unit i bought. see it working http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2TCR6mACSs

I have now finally got the NFC antenna that i ordered a few weeks ago from china and the NFC antenna works well in combination with wireless charging. No interference with wireless charging as far as i can tell and NFC sensing is better in my subjective opinion. see it working http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNrUrzUYa6k
this NFC antenna might be a solution for all those stuck with receivers interfering with NFC, it costs just about £2.50 delivered from china but took a while to come form there.
Only @ 640mA? Why would anyone get this? Am I missing something?
Makes your phone fatter and charging takes 3x longer then the standard 1900mA cable that comes with the phone.

Did you even check the wireless qi adapter? I think not.
This adapter does not add to the size of the phone.
Wireless charging is convenient for some and most of us charge the phone overnight, doesn't matter if it is slower.

It fits inside my s-view cover. tight fit and tricky to close back but can manage it by changing position of pad slightly by trial and error. so it doesnt increase the size in practical terms if you saw the video.
Yes its a bummer seeing the drop but that is expected in wireless charging. The convenience factor may be useful for people like me. Its not for everyone. But one avoids issues with USB port by repeated connections and disconnections for charging.
The receiver plate is 1000milliamps but base is 1500milliamps. hopefully soon a receiver with 1500milliamps may be available increasing the power available i guess to about 1000milliamps if wastage stays similar.
I am happy with mine. Its up to others to decide if they want wireless charging. My video just gives you the info and its for you to decide whether the accessory is for you. :good:

I watched his YouTube. The Sview barely fits (which is fatter to begin with - and then with a buldge.
I'm all for convenience, but you still need to place the phone on a mat, which is plugged in. So you're telling me placing the phone on the mat is more convenient then plugging in the cord that's right there attached to the mat & charges (from empty) FOUR (4) hours quicker?
That's like saying is more convenient to drive 1000 miles then fly because you don't need to wait in a line at the airport. Cool, yes. Convenient, no.

the s-view cover fits fine, the flap closes fine after keeping it flat on the cover for a few hours. the bulge is barely noticable even when you look for it. For all practical purposes it is as if it isnt there.
I get your point about faster charging. But this is convenient (without long term issues with your usb ports from repeated plugging in of charger) for people to leave by their bedside or on their desk where they can just grab phone and go and no need to connect or disconnect their usb charger. Even toyota are including wireless chargers now in their newer car releases. This if clubbed with NFC to a suitable car stereo with app mode etc will be useful for using the features of your phone on your car stereo and make your car stereo smarter without spending more on a car stereo having the same custom built apps. Just one use case scenario that springs to mind.
This wireless kit will be useful for people who want to use their own cases rather than original samsung wireless charging case which does not have s-view cover option.
It wont be for everyone but will be fine for many like me.

its shown in the second video link. i bought it from ebay but its available on amazon. the link is given in my video description as well on both the videos. think the white one is cheaper. but supply and demand the price might be different when you check it.
please note that the app called galaxy charging current, the developers have replied in the comments that the app doesnt work on qualcomm SOC so i dont know if it is showing an accurate reading on my SGS4 GT I9505 as it has a snapdragon chip.

Best wireless charger?

Hi guys.
I have an i9506 and i look for a wireless charger.
I can't find many rss for it to decide for best.
What is your experience?
What do you suggest?
My experience has been the Samsung wireless charger is best. I own it and two of the El cheapos from eBay and the difference is huge. For example the cheap ones you have to be move the phone around on the pad to find the sweet spot. With the Samsung charger, close is good enough and you get a green LED to let you know it's working.
I use 3 nokia dt-900. I also had an ebay one which burned... my advice, go for known brands like samaung, nokia, panasonic, energizer...
I have a Samsung charger and a PowerBot disk. Both work fine.
Thnx for your response guys!
So best is to use samsung charger (station) and what patch in the cover?
Is there any big copper mesh to induct more power from the pad?
Also are those chargers fast like the wall charger?

Anyone else annoyed about the lack of included wireless charging?

I'd probably never use it, but to sell a $40 nickel and dime add on for something that would probably cost less than $2 in material costs on a $900 phone kind of rubs me the wrong way.
Ok. I'll move on.

I am with you... I actually considered not getting the edge and that was a big reason. I guess I'll just divert money away from holiday gifts so I can buy the additional kit. Smh
I am with you on this, Really have a hard time calling this a flagship phone with this kind of nickel and dime stuff!
On top of that they don't even make it available until who knows when.
I noticed the note 4 and the edge have similar back/batteries. I would if a note 4 qi receiver would work on the Edge?

I just went and bought a note 4 receiver. They don't cost much so why not try one. Will report the results when it gets here.

That's what I was wondering -
I saw this (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/351204499918?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649) and thought that if the internals are the same then it might also be used - at significantly less cost than the official version.
Can anyone take a photo of the Note Edge with the back cover removed for comparison?
If no one else does, I will get a picture this afternoon when mine comes in....
Disregard my earlier request - found pics online.
Appears the short answer is no.

eBay - Note4 receiver:

Looks like the top row of connectors are vertically oriented on the Note4 but horizontal on the Note Edge.
The "L" shape for the connectors to the side of the battery are an "L" shape for the edge and reversed for the Note4 "_|"
Furthermore, the spacing from the battery looks a little different.
Depending on the actual charging receiver maybe one could bend it around to suit but it's not something I'd be keen to do personally.
As an aside, looking at the official wireless receiver/back - is the coil just under the metal plate or does it have a larger, hidden surface area? Some Qi hacks I've seen put the coil at the bottom of the phone - which makes it look like you need to carefully position your phone on the plate for the charge to kick in. (i.e. Hanging off the side of the plate so the charger / receiver are aligned)
Maybe there'll be a low cost alternative like the Note4 receiver (eBay link) in a few weeks. Until then, I guess I'm fine with charging via MicroUSB.
Give it a few more days. There will be one soon. LoL

Check this link out. Just ordered one and when it arrives I will update further. Just could not do without wireless after having it on my Note 3 for so long!

Ouch. $19 shipping? I sent packages out next day air for less than that.
I have never seen a phone include a wireless charger before. I doubt it will be something that phones will come with, unless you cant remove the battery back.
It would just up the cost of the device more and a ton of people dont even know you can charge wiresless with a kitl

I never said wireless charger. I said wireless charging capability.

Yea same thing.
You can add a wireless back to change it wireless.
I haven't seen any phones come with one unless you can't remove the battery.
$60 for this? No, I'll wait to be released in US on Samsung and use their 50% off on accessaries received after registering product

It isn't the same thing, but ok.
I'm not a big fan of the current wireless charging technologies. Anything that makes a device warm or hot from lost energy is not an ideal solution. I'll stay old-school and plug in.

Note 4 receiver doesn't work

Any new updates ?
hopefully the next galaxy series will include built in wireless charging and they will continue the concept in all future flagships. i think the nexus 6 came with it already built in didn't it? i don't understand why samsung can't put it on there instead of making you buy extra battery covers
Stoodo said:
I'd probably never use it, but to sell a $40 nickel and dime add on for something that would probably cost less than $2 in material costs on a $900 phone kind of rubs me the wrong way.
Ok. I'll move on.
FWP.

Official one http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ET-H10FAUWESTA If you have the 50% off code still from registering your phone with Samsung, this would be something worth using it on
If you search on Amazon.com you can find other ones for under $20, search for a MHL adapter for the Note 4..... different phones need different adapters so I wouldnt get one unless it specifically said for the Note 4.... I know someone else will give more information than what I can, so give it a while here, maybe someone will find you a cheaper one yet.
I got mine from monoprice. Works with my Note 4, Note 3, S3 and HTC One M7. The smaller plug is an 11 pin to 5 pin adapter needed for Samsung devices. Not needed on the HTC One.
http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=108&cp_id=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=10021&seq=1&format=2
it's plenty out there.
Many people doesn't know that any MHL cable will work on our Note 4.
The older version of MHL will only needs a 4/5 pins to 11 pins adapter that costs less than USD 5
I actually using my old Smart Dock for Note 2 and it works with Note 4

If you have WiFi just get the chromecast it does the same plus more.. but if your stuck on getting a wired solution then ONLY purchase the one linked in the second post /the Above quote.
Like he stated above register your device with Samsung they WILL give you a50%off code on ALL ACCESSORIES through them. I've bought ones offline from dealers who has 10 THOUSAND+ sales with a 99% + satisfaction rating. I bought a mhl adapter from them and got it plugged it in and every so often it would drop out and go to snow on the screen. Come to find out it was a knock off being sold as a legit own. I returned it and got a refund. But the seller was stunned cause they had a huge shipment of worthless mhl knock offs.
So just buy it from Samsung the official one, it'll last used it on my note 2 and note 4 until I bought the chromecast. Both will do hdmi and surround sound. Not to mention the one that's compatible with the note 2 and 4 is also compatible with s3 s4 and other devices running usb2.0 from Samsung.
Don't buy the knock offs or imitations they don't transfer data at the same rate as the official one and audio quality isn't as good.
But honestly if you have WiFi in your place get the chromecast, you can mirror anything in your screen turn a movie on from the other side of the house and use your phone for other reasons.
Thanks a lot for the info just order one from Samsung. Not got wifi right now moving home
