I see where some people have been playing with BB Demos lately. Has anyone noticed if the VZW model has the pins for wireless charging?

it may be like the sprint phone and be covered up by the sticker on the back.
bb really strips the phone down by taking the stylus and adding that security device in the back.
The Vzw model does not have wireless charging pins.

Then why doesn't it work? I have Qi compatible pad that charges a HTC Droid DNA just fine. But no dice with the Note 2
Agreed - those pins are part of the NFC antenna. The verizon model does not have the charging pins (or they are covered up by the backplate of the phone). The wireless charging pins would be next to the battery if they were visible.
See this for the pin locations:

Yep, those pins are for NFC. Unlike the Galaxy S3 which housed NFC in the battery, the Verizon Note 2 has NFC in the door. That's what those pins are for.
Damnit all to hell. Lol. My bad. Guess I shouldve noticed the battery didnt say nfc o.0

Isn't there something from qi that uses the same pins for both NFC and inductive charging?

The other Note 2s had to have an induction coil added and connected to the charging pins for wireless charging to work. Look at this thread:

looks like you guys are right, no charging pins for verizon's model.

This guy does the whole thing on his verizon phone on youtube. He used a back to a samsung charge phone so its qi compatible.
I have a Qi compatible charger and can tell you that it doesn't work for me.

I thought about that but the connectors are actually on the motherboard, that said, you could mod the motherboard with copper tape, then use a wireless charging back (if they ever release them) from an international version

The 7100 allows wireless charging, correct? If removing 10 or so screws and swapping a back plate is all thats needed for wireless charging, I'll order one of these. Let us know how it goes.

That's pretty cool man, glad you decided to give this a try. But from the posts and videos I remember seeing there was a little more to it than just exposing the metal connectors. I'm not sure exactly. It was a long time ago and I never bothered to follow up on it cause I figured it was too much work for something I most certainly won't even be using in the near future. But I hope it works! If it really is as easy as just changing a piece of plastic I'm all over it, whether I end up using the feature or not.
Yeah I remember reading that people had to put a couple dabs of solder on the contacts to build them up in height. Without that, the contacts would be too low and they wouldn't touch the charging pad. We'll see what happens when xterra gets the part. :fingers-crossed:
It wont fit. I did the same. The housing is different in the area just above the battery

I use a Nokia wireless charger with no issues. Charges to 100% then drops to some sort of trickle charge. The phone is always at 100% in the morning when I remove it and not warm like when it's full on charging. Works great.

AFAIK induction charging isn't possible on the one x+ because it requires the built in hardware that makes it possible. Unforunately the one x+ does not have it. I looked into this after I bought my phone back in January and it doesn't seem like there is an easy way to do this unless you want to open up your phone and add the induction charging hardware yourself. I didn't think I should risk it because I could end up breaking the phone if I didn't do it properly.
I opened my phone and put the palm charging stuff in my phone.... It was stupid... It charged, but VERY slowly. Just use the damn wire. This tech is still in gimmick phase.

So I think I'm going to turn over a new leaf and try to keep a phone for at least a year. Well doing so will require an otter box or similar. The problem here is wireless charging. If it doesnt charge I'm going to have to use the plug. I know first world problems If I take that annoying flap off before it snaps off will the USB port still resist water?

If you have the flap off and the stock Samsung charger isn't in it, it is not resistant to water.

The wireless covers are already available on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Wireless-Charging-Cover-Galaxy/dp/B00ITI24EK/

To enable Qi charging on our devices with the Circle case it is my understanding we need the international backplate. I may be confused tho and it may be NFC+ we need the international back for.
That makes sense as the thread I read was talking about the carrier on carrying no Qi enabled cases. Which makes sense if our devices don't have wireless charging backs.

I saw the person that posted about that, but it ended up that he didn't have the right case base on what Verizon told me. I guess we will just have to wait and see. I would be okay with a Qi charging back too.
VZW would do something like buy rights to put the only Qi backs on their G3s
