Hi there
i've an original Samsung S-Charger-cover for wireless charging for my S4 which makes it a little bit thicker.
So now none of the available bumper-covers i've seen fit anymore because of the extra-thickness.
Sadly the original S-View-Flip-Cover replaces the battery-cover and i'll lose wireless charging.
What i'm looking for is something like this: (can't post Link) - see attachment
A Flip-Cover i can put on my wireless charging cover without losing the ability to charge my battery or use NFC.
All the cases i've seen seem to fit only when you've the thinner battery cover on - not the thicker S-Charger cover.
Please help ...
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

Did you use any special glue to attach the qi receiver to the 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).

Maybe some pics? would be helpful
As per title really.
I've read many negative reviews regarding aftermarket qi receiver stickers including issues about off centre placement to get the charging working.
So after watching the youtube video on how to buy the genuine samsung wireless cover and then remove the actual ultra slim qi coil to place in whatever cover you wish I decided to go ahead.
First step done and coil removed however I see that in the back of the mont blanc case there is already a small grey plastic piece with pins/terminals on it that connect to the terminal between the sim card and memory card...... just where the coil needs to make contact.
Before I remove this does anybody know what it is? Reasons to not remove it? Tips or advice?
I'm guessing it will be a chip etc for activation of mont blanc software.
Thanks in advance
I think it's NFC as well as for the Montblanc software. I tried the regular Qi wireless card or whatever it's called and it does work but the smart on/off screen feature of the Montblanc case won't work wtih it in there. Don't know if the Samsung one will do the same but as far as removing the contacts I think you should be okay.

Successful in the transfer of the coil as in the thread on here but as you experienced I've lost the smart open/awake function which is a real pity.
I just installed this qi receiver under my Mountblonc case - has the "pass through" connector so I didn't lose the cover sensor function.

I would like to know if the official Samsung Wireless Qi Car charger will be able to hold my Note 4 with the Wireless charging S-View cover.
Could anyone confirm please?

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.
Ask the seller's customers service. Their answer is most accurate.
Hi,
FOr me two missings on this phone were Google Camera which is handled atm and WIreless charging.
To solve the latter, do you think we could find a good cover with integrated Qi wireless charge receiver ?
Or place in the cover (it being a bit thicker but I don't care) to place one ?
Thanks.

I have seen similar setup for other devices. There are multiple videos in youtube.
