I have been craving a wireless charging phone for a while, unfortunately there were a ton of other gadgets that I wanted first. So I was excited to finally get setup of both a Qi wireless standard transmitter, and a receiver for my Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
These are from the Itian brand, distributed by Double-S. The transmitter is very well made. It is super solid, and finished in a flat matte finish, and it has rubber anti-slide pieces applied where your phone sites to prevent it from sliding off the charger/transmitter. There is a "red" light on the bottom when it is plugged in via the supplied MicroUSB cable. The light turns on when it is actively charging your device.
The receiver for the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 fit my phone perfectly. As you can see in the above video, it is really very easy to install/attach this device. There is a small piece of tape to hold it in place.
Installing this receiver does add a very small "bulge" to the back of the phone, but it is really not very noticeable. My Spigen Neo Hybrid case was easily reattached, and I am still able to enable the wireless recharging with the case installed.

DIY QI car mount

Last night I received my QI wireless charger and receiver for my Galaxy S4 (T-Mobile). And I decided to use this in my vehicle with the Mountek CD slot mount.
I took the QI charger apart and placed the charging magnet and board inside a sleeve that I made using heavy black paper. This is what I have made. Will post more pictures of the phone and charger in my vehicle.
Was thinking about doing the same thing. I have a similar mount in my car I could use.
Keep us posted here.

I LOVE this idea. I have the samsung case and this would be awesome
Here is a picture of the mount and the phone on the mount in my vehicle
Looks pretty cool. Good work.
I actually was thinking about making my own car charger mount a few months ago and I did try making one but a little different than yours.
What I did was that I tried to combine Qi charger and magnets so the Qi charges the phone while the phone sticks to the Qi panel with a few thin coin magnets behind it. By doing so, I wouldn't need grips or bottom foot to hold the phone. But, I failed to do so because somehow the magnets interfered the Qi coil's wireless charging signal or something. I just thought it would be easy work but it wasn't. I gave up.
induced current works off of electromagnetic fields. Maybe read up

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!

Are you using the original qi back plate for the note 4?

No that is original Qi back for Edge. Note 4 terminals are in different place. You can get that from Korea. Or eBay for $37+$19 shipping.

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!

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

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 told by an online shop that it won't fit and that's why I want to confirm from someone who has it.
Compatible with All Qi-Certified Smartphones
The Samsung Universal Wireless Charging Vehicle Dock is compatible with all Qi-certified devices ranging in size from 4" to 5.7", including Galaxy S 4, Galaxy S 5, Galaxy Note 3, and Galaxy Note 4. All models require a Samsung Wireless Charging Battery Cover or Wireless Charging S-View Cover (sold separately). With the Wireless Charging S-View Cover installed, you can fold back the folio cover to give you full access to the screen for navigation and more – the phone will still charge wirelessly, even with the folio tucked back behind the phone.
Just like @denson said it should work.

Qi fast charger magnetic/sticky car mount

has anyone here found a car mount that has either a magnetic or sticky pad qi charger? looking for a sleek install in my car. or do i have no other choice to diy it?
I haven't tried it yet but this one has been the only one I've been able to find so far. I am currently using this Spigen magnetic mount and was able to position the metal plate at the very bottom of the phone horizontally where it will still hold the phone securely but not interfere with my Samsung fast wireless dock at home, but it would be nice to have wireless charging in the vehicle as well.
I've been considering the air dock 2.0 but it doesn't have quick charge. I read somewhere that the magnets can interfere with the spen somehow. I'll probably end up picking up a choetech fast charger and rigging it somehow.
I'm really looking for this as well..
Couldn't find a single magnetic QI car charger which supports QC 2.0 yet.
I have used the magnetic mount mentioned above from Amazon. The really cool thing about it is you do not need any extra metal or magnets for the Note 7 to stick to it (previously I had always mounted magnets under the back cover or inside a skin to hold the phone) However, what I do is have the bottom of the phone rest on top of my car stereo to keep it in place. This adds more support for the phone in addition to the magnetic mount and seems to really help keep the phone attached on bumpy roads and fast turns. Lining up the phone to charge correctly can be a bit of a challenge also. I had been making custom magnetic charging car mounts for myself with my other phones (started with the palm touchstone a few years ago) but his is so far the best stock experience I have had for a magnetic wireless charging car mount.
I have ordered a proclip for my vehicle. Waiting on that and still searching for a Qi charger thatll look and fit nice in my center console. Still debating if I wanna do magnets or sticky tape. I too have the magnetic mount. But it doesn't seem to be strong enough with a case and the metal backing interferes with the Qi charger in my room.

Wireless charging use magnets?

Does the S8+ use magnets for the wireless charging? Looking at car dock solutions, airdock looks good but without a magnet it won't work.
Wireless charging uses inductively electromagnetic coil. It's not a permanent magnet just an electromagnet. But it's probably not going to work for that.
C'mon man I think the techs been out long enough for it to be common knowledge how it works.
I mean are there separate magnets in the back to hold it to a magnetic wireless charger, like the S7 and ma y other phones have.
the scosche magnet car mount works on the s8 w/o a case. with a case it wont go through tho you'd need to metal adapter plate
If you go caseless or have a glossy case the airdock will work fine. It uses micro-suction. But if you don't have something glossy and smooth it won't work well.
