I've noticed that in order to enable wireless charging for the S4 you have to replace the back cover with the one in the kit, but then that means you can't use a case like the S-View etc as they also need their own back cover. Has there been any word on wireless charging enabled versions of the S-view or normal flip cover?
I'd like to know so for the S-View too. Thanks.
I know it makes your phone thicker, I'm not sure any cases will work with the back cover.
Is the wireless back cover even available to purchase yet? I want one ASAP. I read somewhere its release was pushed back...anybody know anything?

Get something like this
Wireless charging insert
Just match up the copper to the pins and and use copper tape. Any standard case will fit.
Do those wireless inserts really work?

As far as I know, the S View Cover has wireless charging built in

It does not. it has no induction coil, no power contacts.
Found one insert that will be shipping shortly to work with any Galaxy S4 back cover
(They have a Galaxy S III version as well if interested)

I will definitely be picking this up for the fact that it's not a mod but an official design for the S4 and you can use any back cover with it (avoiding the thicker official wireless charging back cover as well). :good:
That's awesome! I wanna get 1 as well while living outside US.
If only Samsung didn't offer awesome items then completely let us down everytime. Either way I need something QI soon to go with my Nexus QI charger.

I can confirm it definitely does not. The S view case is really poor IMO, sent mine back for a refund straight away.
One other potential problem I've been thinking about, if you want wireless charging I'm presuming that you won't be able to put an extra case on your phone as that would act like a barrier? That's a shame.

I think the Qi charging works through a lot of cases.
I'm curious to hear if anyone gets an insert to work with the stock back cover. There seems to be much less space under the cover in comparison to the S3 so I'd be surprised if any of the inserts will be thin enough to fit.

Same question for those who have used them on note 2/s3 or have one on s4

Hmm...that's actually a good point. Maybe we can reach out to someone from the S III users to find out who used this one.

According to two reviews here, NFC does work: Link

Hi All
I have the samsung S4 and have to say I love it!
Does anybody have any suggestions for a car mount that can be used with the s-view cover open, ie: folded over the rear of the phone please?
Also what are the best spare batteries to get for it?
Thanks
PJB
If you want a spare battery and charger for it, you can register your S4 on samsung's site and get 50% off accessories under 50$. Also don't know if this will help you but some people have been using the infuse dock for the S3 and I would assume the S4 but it definitely wouldn't hold with a S-view cover. How are you liking the S view cover btw?

50% offer not available, I am in the UK, typical!
Like the S view cover alot, very handy to be able to see time, answer calls with cover there. Never had a screen cover before but as I could do those it sold it to me!
I imagine this would work with an S-Cover:

...works with a Trident Kraken on the S4
I have the Samsung OEM Wireless Charging back on my Note 4 and the issue I am running into is finding a protective case that fits with the added thickness. I tried a QI charge tab just added inside the standard back, which was ok, but the charge receiver died pretty quickly.
Anyone have any experience finding a case that works with this configuration?
Thanks!
Peter
I'm in the same boat as you Peter. I have an Otterbox and another at home that don't fit. I've also talked to Otterbox and they said they have no plans to make one that would fit with the charging cover.
Hopefully, someone can find one soon that fits properly. I hate having my phone naked!

I wonder if the blue Samsung Protective+ cover will fit over it.

Thanks Bbc, but I doubt it. I don't think with the added thickness of the cover, it would fit. If someone would be willing to try, I'd appreciate it.

Hi!
I have an original flip case.
product number: ef-cn910bcegww+rf7fb0sp3xnjcs
what they're for these connectors?
it supports wireless charging or not?
I bought the charger from ebay but it does not do anything.
( http://www.ebay.com/itm/131214198822 )
Thank you in advance for your response
The cover adds wireless charging

I believe this is incorrect. product number EP-VN910IBUSTA is the wireless s view cover.
in terms of looks however the cases are similar. as a reference the msrp for the wireless one is 69.99 while the standard s view is 49.99.
also, OP, the connectors are to let the phone understand that an s view cover is installed and give the phone a few extra features by enabling use of the front window.

Does anyone who know or own the Samsung Note 4 with the Wireless Charging Back Cover (see link above) know which cases (especially wallet/folio style cases) fill fit with the phone and this wireless back cover as I understand it fits abit thicker then the stock cover?
Thanks

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.
Mike
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:
