Wireless charging to fit all cases - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

I have just received my genuine wireless charging cover and stripped it apart. The thing to do is remove the long pins that are soldered on the Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) and build solder blobs not to high and stick it back in the phone put the standard rear cover on then any case will fit & you have wireless charging with virtually no bump. I have included pictures but unfortunately cannot take photo's of the phone as I have no other camera.
Done this with my Note 3 and had zero problems!

I was double checking because you said...
"Done this with my Note 3 and had zero problems!"
Was that a typo, or did you do it for both your Note 3 and Note 4?

It seems like a lot of work and a waste of money to buy the expensive Samsung wireless charging back just to tear it apart.
I just bought this when they had it for $5.99 and it works fine with the regular back cover.

I see that it is covering a portion of NFC on the battery, does NFC still work for you?
Also, if not, wouldnt we just be able to cut the film strip in the center and just use a very small wire of some sort to extend it but to keep NFC functionality?

NFC works without a case on the phone. It doesn't work through my Spigen Slim Armor though. Maybe thinner cases NFC will still work fine.

Keeping original charging cover ensures correct charging. Safety features of the chip on board original wireless charging cover have temp sensors also, as opposed to non origional covers. Nfc is built in to original cover and retained in this mod.

So, is this for the Note 3 or do you now have a Note 4? If for the Note 4, where did you get the charging cover from?

Cool mod. Always fun to make your own. There are cheaper inserts that do have NFC (see the other Qi thread) but their currently shipped from China.

This is for note 4. As I said earlier I did this for my Note 3 ALSO and had zero problems!
I have purchased this original Note 4 wireless charging cover in black from Handtec and I received it today. Using it with Ringke Fusion in smoke. only minimal rocking on flat surface, But with Speigen Tough Armour not at all noticeable.
Here are pictures Enjoy!

Im hoping this little line in their description means that the wireless back wont add too much to the phone to prevent the use of normal cases.
Here's the link to the black wireless back, just needed to change the W to a B in the product number =)
We need to know if it adds bulk and if standard cases can be used. I have a QI charging pad that I use with an insert in my S3. I'm guessing my charging pad will work with this back?

Damn, didn't think of that. I hope some company takes that into consideration. Sammy should have made wireless charging standard on this phone but it looks like they want to make more off of accessories.

Yep. Another money making ploy. If the nexus 7 can do it, Samsung could certainly do it.
Problem is, even the thinnest wireless adapter creates somewhat of a bulge, which could ruin the water resistant seal

If samsung starts making them standard out of the box, then it's standard size and any case will fit, even the water resistant seal.
so there won't be people asking questions, will this bulge or will this case fit as with the S3, S4, note 2 and note 3. but as usual it will never happen with samsung at present, may be in the near future.
Like the Note 3, with the wireless charger you won't see the bump where the camera lens are. It will be flat which is a good thing for me.
Hello does anybody know if the s5 wireless charging cover adds thickness like the s4 one did? As in cases wont fit?
am I missing something here or have people simply not read the description?

Yes. Most places will have them on the 11th. Check amazon, mobile fun and usual places.
words matter
The problem is that "original style and slim profile" is inexact and open to interpretation. Proper wording would be helpful. Something like "original style and exact form factor" or "identical physical specification" or even ""will not affect fitment with standard phone cases"....words matter.
Any one want to put money the wireless charging case will be thicker? There has to be some extra depth to accommodate the charging coil. On the standard back I can't see Samsung deliberately make back thick so it lines up with the wireless one.

Case Compatable with Samsung Qi Charging Back?

I ordered the Samsung back with the built in Qi charger. Before the vendor let me order it, they emailed me the following:
Please note that using this back cover will slightly change the dimension/ size of the phone and any case you may have on your Note 4 will no longer fit the device. Unfortunately, we do not have cases that are compatible with this battery charging back.

You might be able to stretch some TPU cases and force them on, but at this time there aren't any cases made to specifically fit with the OEM wireless charging back.
It took several months for the Galaxy S5 to get any cases specifically made for the wireless charging back, so I'm not anticipating one for the Note 4 in the near future. I'd love to see a manufacturer step up though. Diztronic did with the S5, but they have yet to even release a standard case for the Note 4.

My friends have similar receiver stickers in their Samsung phones (Note 3, 2x S5s) and the sticker interferes with NFC, they were unable to use Android Beam or Softcard/Google Wallet until they removed the sticker (those features worked intermittently).
For this reason, I'll personally wait until a case that fits the official Samsung wireless charging cover comes out.

Amazon now has this sticker in stock with Prime shipping: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I had it shipped overnight ($3.99 with Prime) and got it this morning. Here's what I found:
1. It's not 0.6mm, but 1.5mm thick (I measured it with a caliper). It bulges the battery cover in an ugly way. My Spigen case does not fit properly anymore.
2. It charges much more slowly than the official Samsung wireless charging back, which I also have (tested with a Tylt Vu desktop charger).
3. It makes battery swapping impossible as it has to be attached to the battery.
4. No "NFC support." Even though it has five pins, only two of them (second from top and the upper single one) are actually connected to the circuit, I checked with a multimeter. There is only a single coil/antenna, so there is definitely no "NFC support" of any kind, unlike the official Samsung cover which actually has two coils/antennas - one for charging and a second for NFC, since the original NFC antenna in the battery is blocked by the Qi antenna.
Sending it back, it's crap.

Mine arrived from China today. Seems like a different item than you got. Very little if any bulge. Case fits fine. NFC working fine. Phone gets surprisingly warm during charging. No problem connecting to my iAnker charging pads. Too soon to comment on charging speed. It doesn't exactly match the picture, doesn't have the indicated contacts for sview sleep function.
I'll get a picture and try to find my calipers in a bit.

I just received the OEM Samsung Qi back and indeed none of the case I tried seem to fit correctly just as I was forewarned. The Samsung OEM cover will fit, but the buttons are a bit off so it is too annoying to use. I'll just have to keep my eye out for a Qi compatible cover.

I think the relative positions of the receiver and the coil have something to do with heat issues. I also have a sticker from China. I noticed that charging the phone on Tylt Vu keeps the battery hot all night (this can't be good for longevity). But, if I set the phone upside down, it only heats up during actual charging. Itian charger also stops heating after the phone reaches 100.

Note Edge Flip Wallet Qi Wireless Charging (DIY)

i cant post any link here as im a new user but you can go to youtube and search "Note Edge Flip Wallet Qi Wireless Charging (DIY)" to check it out
i cracked open the original samsung qi wireless back and attach the qi receiver to the flip wallet back, anyone is interested in more details please let me know
Guide?
I would love if you could go over the steps on how you integrated the receiver into the flip cover. In the video I see the flip wallet clock still works since it's tied to the magnet in the cover, not the back cover contacts (got creative with the Gear Circle to test this). Does NFC work correctly?
Also curious of NFC works.

Very interested in this answer. Would be a good dolar savings to reuse the innards and would be a great combo with the leather case (like the video.).
Steps and pic if possible?
sorry guys I've been busy past few days couldn't reply earlier. for your questions:
1. NFC works perfectly
2. Require the original note edge qi receiver (from the original case as there is no 3rd party qi receiver out there yet) as you can see below the qi receiver connectors need to match the phone's terminals (i.e. the L shaped below the sd card slot and the one above the battery
and regarding steps, unfortunately i did not take video or pix while cracking open the original case and attaching to the flip wallet but i''ll try my best to explain here
1. this is how the original case looks like (pic1)
2. use a knife to start cracking the 4 corners then sides of the plastic piece in the middle which has the qi receiver attached underneath and this is how it looks after detaching it from the case (of course the qi receiver should be there too but mine is already glued to my flip wallet now) (pic2)
3. you should fine the qi receiver is glued to the plastic piece (the left one in pic2) but can be removed easily (with care also!) by hand
4. on the flip wallet you should see a chip attached to it (pic3) please make sure that is removed before attaching the qi receiver on it as one of the qi connectors is at the same spot so without removing the chip on the flip wallet you can't attach your phone properly to the wallet
5. after removing the chip, place the qi receiver on the flip wallet at the same positions as where the connectors should be touching the phone's terminals (pic4)
6. DONE!
NFC works, wireless charging works and edge panel responds to the flip wallet cover! do it at your own risk but it is pretty straight forward!
ENJOY!

that is correct, note 4 has different terminals than note edge. and for your information, i have checked with 2 companies which manufactures 3rd party qi receivers for samsung phones both said they do not have plan yet on making one for edge (guess from profit perspective edge is a limited production phone) and that is why i went ahead to DIY one using the original note edge qi case

From the pictures it looks like he used a type of frabic tape.
I'm sure he will chime in with that he did.
I thought about doing this from the start , I don't like the thickness of the charging backs. So I was going to rip the guts out and put in on the OEM back.
But that's alot of money just to rip it apart.
I had the thin small pad for my Note 3 and it only cost about $10. So I think I'll wait on the note edge buntil they get the thin pads aslo.
My qi case came in and I did the mod for the wallet case.
It works perfectly! Thanks OP!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N915A using Tapatalk
Just to be clear this mod was done from an Edge Qi back cover to a waller case back cover. Im guessing to avoid the extra thickness added by the Qi backing.
Can this be done to the original backing that comes with the note edge so that I can have Qi with the simple backing and no extra thickness

Yep that works, I have done that for one of my friends who complained the qi cover is too thick
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEuXId2WV9w
This could be a quick and easy way to do this whole mod but I think I want to keep the ability to use the usb port in case I need quickcharge or use the port for mass storage.
Also does anyone know what amperage the OEM case allow. Cause I saw that Samsung official Qi chargers are 2amp but most only deliver 1amp from what i know.
On bottom L sharp pins; pin of inside is + 5v and pin of out side is ground. you can mod samsung s5 wireless charger receiver to install. (pin of wireless charger receiver s5 is opposite compare to note edge). so i trip off plastic cover of receiver and pull up pcb sidedown to made compatible pins .
Cons: due to wireless receiver is 1.0 compatible=used ic bq5101xx = max 1000ma.
note edge can handle 1700 ma so receiver get hot;
Solutions: used usb charger under 1000ma or connect 2 wireless receiver in parallel way. (1 up and 1 down; coils are center and symmetric).

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:

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:

Best wireless (Qi) back for N910?

There don't seem to be any OEM Qi backs left., which is what I wanted. I got an aftermarket one, which is as thin as the stock non-wireless back, but that 1) doesn't fit all that well; there's always a gap at one corner or other, depending on which end I start with when putting it on, and 2) is at least moderately durable.
The one I have is starting to split, 3 months in. It charges fine (800mA at 5VDC, which is better than my Note 3 with OEM charging back)
So... if you are using a wireless charging back, which one are you using, and how do you like it?
BTW, I've been using a number of these wireless charging docks ($10 on amazon) and they're great if you want a spot you can just plonk your phone down and have it charging.
Hello, I'm using this on my phone and it fits and works perfectly.

Here is the back I purchased.

I use it with this charger. I read a lot of reviews that the wireless charging is very slow and someone even said it was more like a toy... For me, the wireless charger easily charges my phone as fast as a 1 amp charger. You do have to have a minimum of a 1 amp wall adapter.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I use a rubberized case with my phone, so it is rather thick and have no issues using the charger with it.
I think the charger and back that bishop mentioned are fine. I used similar, but I actually stripped the charging circuit out of the back, removed the black plastic cover and put it into a standard (genuine) Samsung back, which I know fits perfectly. In fact, I bought 2 of these backs and stripped out the charging circuit in both. I put one in a standard back and another in a Samsung S-View cover because the Charging S-View cover from Samsung is no longer available. Now I have the choice of either S-View charging or standard back. charging for when I use the VR headset. BTW, looking at the circuit for the backs I used, it looks like NFC is in there as well.
I bought two different Qi receivers (and used the original back), and I regret it. The first one died after a month or two, and the second one heated up the phone while charging and ruined the battery.
So I broke down and bought Samsung's wireless charging back, and it has been working perfectly.
where i can find original oem samsung back QI ?

I also use this back, (sold under the h-ber brand name on amazon) and it works fine. Of course the back does fit a little tight, and sometimes, you have to put it on the bottom (near USB port) first, or the clips don't clip.
I have phone in a incipio case which is two layer TPU and polycarbonate and pretty thick, but it charges fine.

I have used a samsung fast charging qi dock, and a pleson fast charging dock, which both work fine, but will only charge at normal qi speeds due to lack of qi fast charge support on the note 4.
I get the original one for $60 in my country

What are you doing to hold those stripped pieces in place? Is it just packed so tight that you don't need anything or did you attach it somehow?

I just put the circuit panel onto the phone in the right position and then glue on the cover and then fitted the cover without moving the circuit panel. Press down well and the charging receiver is now glued to the case and in the correct position.

Thx a bunch for your prompt response. Sorry, what kinda glue is this? I know it gets hot back there and I've never been this best at choosing proper adhesive materials. I'm specifically using this setup for a contraption I found for the gear. I purchased a built in back but don't trust it's quality. Here is the gear contraption. It will be my 4th fan setup but this time, wifi charging is a possibility:

I used double sided tape when I did mine - not quite as permanent as glue, just in case it moved before the glue set.
