Quick question.
So, on the back of the phone are 6 contact points variously positioned above and beside the battery.
I know they are used for charging wirelessly when a Qi cover or receiver are installed. However, they only use 2 of the contact points, so what is the functionality or possible uses for the remaining 4 points?
In the picture you'll see the red arrow points to the 2 points side by side used to for wireless charging. The other points I've indicated by placing a box around them for identification.
Does anyone know what they can be used for?
Thanks

Hey everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone had technical expertise or info on what points one could try soldering to in order to get a Qi charging mod working for this tablet? I had done one based on instructions for the Nexus 7, and would be interested in doing a wireless charging mod for the note.
I was just curious if anyone has looked into this? I searched the net and couldn't seem to find anything on it.
Based on what I found below, it would seem that I run one wire from the Qi pad to pin 6 (+ve 5v 1.8a "V_ACCESSORY_5.0V P") and one to pin 16 (HC GND High current Ground, -ve). Based on how small it is I would be looking for alternate solder spots I would imagine.

The S4 Active charging port have a rubber cover and I bet with constant open / close, this rubber will wear off or even fall off.
Hence, I am looking for a wireless charging solution, while waiting for Samsung to sell their version. Do you have any suggestions?
There seems to be many, like Metrans solution shown below. I am not sure if this will fit in the S4 active and NOT interfere with the rubber seal around the back cover.

I'm guessing you didn't search and find this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2346512).
I'm going to assume that none exist but thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. A vertical charging dock wouldn't be very useful, since the whole point of docking the tablet for me would be movies.

There are plenty of cases, including the official Samsung keyboard case, that will act as a way to dock or stand the tablet up horizontally.
Okay, I should have been more specific. I would prefer one that has a charging port on the side (not the bottom) so you could attach it and charge it horizontally. It didn't occur to me that some of the docks could be placed horizontally, though, so I may just do something like this.

Hi all. I've just fitted the Brodit proclip to my car and I thought I'd share my findings.
1. The holder will fit the Nexus 6P complete with DBRAND skin. It will not however, support a case.
2. The built in charger is USB C however it only outputs at 2, not 3 amps. The phone simply shows as "charging" rather than " charging rapidly".
3. Fitting is straight forward as no tools are needed to get the mount to stay in place. The kit i went for is a hard wired kit which did mean removal of parts of the dashboard was necessary in order to tap in to a live and a ground. Thankfully the wiring is clearly labeled.
4. The mount is a tilt/swivel mount so it didn't take long to find a good position.

I just hooked this up but it's not charging.
It's connected, but not charging.

Did you test it with another phone/device? I can only guess but i guess its not related to the P7Pro.
P7P prefers PD...
It also seems to require data pins to work - a cheap "shunt 5V into the port" 2 wire charger won't work apparently.
This one should work:

These only works on very simple devices. Like a flashlight, or a radio
Thanks, guys.
One of the two leads will charge it.
Not sure why the other one doesn't.
So, I swapped the leads.
The other lead is charging a low-power GPS device.
I'm going to check the device that kodabmx posted.
I missed it in my previous shopping search!
