Too bad I got a regular Samsung Wireless Charger free with Edge+ @ BestBuy. Although, the same product is showing for pre-order at their website for some reason. It was released a while back, it should have been the fast charger on pre-order. Anyway, will see once I pick it up on 21st.
I know that Qi wireless charger is great.
I will try it ,when my S6 plus is arrival

Samsung Fast Wireless Charger would be better. Both are different.

I have one of the old chargers too, but it doesn't like the edge plus. It will charge for about 5 to 10 minutes then it will just flash blue. Are you having issues with yours?

You know what, I picked my phone today along with the old wireless charger and I had just put the phone over the wireless charger like 15 min before. Every 5 min, my Edge+ stops charging and the charger blinks blue. I was about to search on google when I came across your post. No idea whats wrong with it.... Lets see if anybody else is having similar issue.
I found a post that people are saying it's related to the lock screen, when they enable day dream mode it worked for some people. I tried it the phone stayed on for awhile, when I came back a hour later it was flashing blue again so I'm not to sure what the issue is.

I've reported this to Samsung. I just can't get it to charge wirelessly. I've created a video too for sharing. Here, have a look : https://youtu.be/SfiGk6C3Yso

Goto Samsung Website. Register your Note 5/ Edge+ and raise a service request.

Yep I'm having the exact same issue. I got it to charge a whole 20 mins once by trying multiple positions. Now I can't get it to charge more then 5 with it blinking blue again. Sucks.

After I couldn't get the Samsung charger to work I bought a stand up charger and has worked perfectly for the last few days!

Yeah, I can always buy that Samsung Wireless Fast Charger , its just $69 and if you register your new flagship, they are throwing 30% off coupon codes too. However, my point is, if the they have decided to give away these old generation fast chargers, the least it should do is charge. I have tried using a different fast charge adapter and a Nexus 4. Still blinking!
Anyway, I've written back to Samsung about this one, lets hope they get back. If not, I'll have to take it back to BestBuy and pickup another one!

Too bad that's 30% off 59.99 or less so the fast charger is 10$ more than that code will allow

You're right, never saw that piece. Sammy is desperate to sell off its official accessories. S6 Edge accessories were very inferior, so I didn't even look at the Samsung section this time, straight to SpiGen.
Same issue as you all with the note5. Same Samsung charger that bestbuy gave away.

Same here. 20 minutes of charging then it quits. I'm going to return it to Best Buy. Maybe they'll give me credit towards a better charger. More likely they'll just exchange it for another.
I have same problem with s6 edge plus. I will try to exchange the phone.
These exist yet ? looking for an extra for travel.

The Gear S2 charger is smaller but seemed to work when I did my first charge. Didn't notice the size difference until I later set up the S3 charger.

I have used my S2 charger and it seems to work fine, I do see a message on the screen when you wake it while charging that says "Use Original Charger". I also noticed the watch back is a little hotter after charging on the S2 charger.
So sounds like the gear s2 charger could be a viable option..
Its worth an 11 buck shot..
There are different types of s2 charges online. those that say theres works, can you advise which one you have or link the site?

You're charging on you phone's wireless charger? How do you get it to lie flat?

Thanks! I forgot the bands on the S3 aren't like the S2, so it can lie flat!

My T-Mobile LTE frontier doesn't have any USB connections on it, strictly wireless charging which it comes with. You may be able to plug in the power bank to the wireless charger but not sure what will happen.

It will work without any problems with a powerbank with 1A output and original charging cradle.

Hello,
One of my reasons to purchase Gear S3 was it Qi charging capability.
I have phone Qi phone charger in my carand I thought to use it for Gear also.
To my disappointment, the charger does not charge the watch.
The watch doesn't show charging and becomes warm.
It works OK with Samsung stock charger though.
Since Gear S3 has million of settings - is there any way to make it work with the car Qi charger?
Thanks!
No, there is no settings for it, simply, watch is not Qi charging compatible. Check this http://www.tizenexperts.com/2017/02...ers-with-your-gear-s3-it-could-fry-your-watch
Hello,
Has anyone tried charging their Gear S3 (Classic/Frontier) with a Nokia DT-900 Qi Charger?
I got a couple of these chargers when it went on clearance at my local ATT store.
I just got a Frontier from ebay (no warranty) and don't want to take any unnecessary risks.
Looking at the DT-900 specs: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile/accessory/dt-900/specifications/
It would appear the charger is within spec of the 750 mA input.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I have various QI wireless chargers and for most they do not work. I have one that is a fast qi charger (10w) and it did work and the charging indicator showed on the watch. (Amazon link: http://a.co/bEck7Tr). That said, I only let it charge for a few seconds as I don't want to damage my watch. As well gear S3 had to be perfectly placed for it to start charging... so not worth it in my opinion.

It charges with my S10+ using wireless power share. I guess you can do it, but not quite recommended.
It may get hot and the battery may get damaged by using a not compatible charger.
Better safe than sorry!

My gear s3 frontier wouldn't work with power share with my original case (encased rebel series) but worked without the case. This was despite wireless charging for the s10+ working with case on.
I just got a spigen neo hybrid today and the power share works but it has to be lined up just right. My guess is your case is just too thick for the wireless power share.
Edit: make sure you turn on power share. It doesn't just work without enabling it first on the phone.

Yeah, I thought it would be like hey, there's something that could be charged and just work.
I didn't want to sound condescending but it really wasn't advertised greatly. I'm sure the buds probably have something that says "to charge with power share, turn it on first", but I haven't gotten those yet. Honestly, I'm just so happy I can charge my Gear S3 frontier with it. It's stupid that a "standard" Qi pad won't charge it, but my phone will.....
good morning. please, has it this function? i tried with a galaxy samsung for share power wireless but no reaction. is impossible?

No

Unfortunately it doesn't have wireless charging.
Should you at some point find something cool, like a sleek case with a tailored made usb-c connector that makes it possible, please let me know.
