When you drop it on the charger it should make the happy "I found power" sound (if volume is on) and light up ONCE. That's it. The charger light will go out eventually when the 920 is full.
This is by design. Don't worry about it. It's working.

No happy charging sound, it actually seems to drain my battery, the phone doesn't seem to register the charger but the charger recognizes the phone. Also the battery indicator shows nothing.

That's not good. Either the charger or the phone's broken. There isn't any user settings on the phone to enable/disable wireless charging. Do you have access to another Qi charger to try?
I assume USB charging works. The phone should behave exactly the same as when you plug it into AC via USB.

it does, I don't, however have access to another charging device. The NFC works on the phone and the charger registers it but they don't sync up.

NFC isn't used for wireless charging at all. I think its time to get that thing exchanged.
It sounds like you have the Nokia DT-910 Wireless Charger. If so, i had a similar Problem at first. NFC inside the DT-910 was recognised, but it wouldn't charge. Fortunately, i do have two other wireless chargers here (Nokia DT-901 Fatboy Pillow and Phillips DLP7250P), both of them working with my 920.
So i checked the Power Connector on the DT-910 and found it wasn't fully plugged in. I pushed a Little more 'til i heard a click from the connector, and my 920 gave a happy pling and started loading.
Obviously, NFC doesn't need power to work.

I'm having the same problem with my 920 and the LG WCP700 charger; the charger beeps and indicates that wireless charging is in progress, but the phone registers nothing.
I was thinking I would try a hard reset before contacting Nokia support, but that's a pain and I'm not convinced it'll make any difference at all.

The WCP700 is not listed as being a QI charger.
You can't just use any old wireless charging mat, it has to be marked as being a QI charger.
Doh, just found that it is QI. But even when they say it conforms to a standard, sometimes they don't or there are side-effects. My Maxell QI charger gets warm and heats up the phone when the Nokia one's dont.

Yeah, that was my thought at first . . . but others have posted that they have had success using the WCP700 with the 920. I'm guessing that the problem now is with the phone; either there's something installed on it that's causing a problem, or the inductive charging hardware is defective.

How is this even possible? While using NAV, my G3 is plugged into the car charger is still decreasing in battery life. Albeit slower than when not charging, but it still goes down even though it is charging. What gives?

Make sure the charger is 2.1 amp...if its a 1 amp, the combo of GPS, data, and screen on will still kill it.

Yup, totally depends on the charger. Some cheap ones are only .5A and most are 1A, which probably still isnt enough when using GPS and screen on.

I had this problem starting all the way back on Galaxy Nexus - crappy chargers and cables do not provide enough power to run the phone and the screen. My research and trial and error on many chargers lead me to understand that not only do you need a good high power charger, you need a good cable too. I now run 18awg charge-only cables exclusively as well as a 2.1amp charger. This pair has worked on all my devices since including fast charging on my G2 and G3.
Note that a charge-only USB cable has the data pair shorted and will only work for charging - will not work for data transfer. However the wires inside are thick and work great cars or other situations where you don't need the cable for data.
This is what I use:

This company is from Hong Kong, but they have pretty fast shipping. It is the only place where I can find (affordable) heavy gauge USB cables.

I had the same issue with a store-bought charger. It also depends on the amperage output of your vehicle's outlet as well.
If anyone is looking for one with a retractable cable, I bought this one:

Just don't put it on the Qi wireless charging pad. There, Qi wireless charging is "disabled".
If you don't want the phone on (and why wouldn't you?) just turn the phone off and plug in, instead of using Qi wireless charging pad.
If I'm sleeping I have my phone face down on bedside table, sound and vibration scheduled to be off, and plugged in charging. But since it's also my alarm, I have the sound scheduled to come back on a couple minutes before the alarm.
I have several USB-C 10ft/3 meter charging cords (you can get 3 for $8 with free shipping online).

This Qi wireless charging pad automatic turn on feature is great for when your power button malfunctions. Phones get older, things break.
On the Motorola Quark series (Droid Turbo/Moto Turbo/Moto Maxx) several people were able to figure out whether it was their power button that had jammed or whether their phone had actually died. Phone wouldn't turn on.
We told them [B"]Go to a carrier store. Put the phone on one of the Qi wireless charging pads on display. "[/b] If it turns on, it's the button. If it doesn't, you've got bigger issues.

The Qi Wireless Charger works whether your phone is charged or not.. I went to the Verizon store and asked to see the charger demo'd... I placed my powered off, Fully Charged, Broken-power-button-Droid Turbo on the charger and it Came to life.
I immediately configured the phone with an alternate power button app to control the screen on/off. FYI None of the apps I found will actually power the phone on from off, but will control the screen once it is powered.
I actually tried everything in this forum, short of the disassembly of the phone but that was next...
The program download.. Reboot Fast Boot; I couldn't get it to download correctly. after about 3 hours I quit... drove to the store and the rest is history. So Glad Not to have Lost everything!..

Luckily for many, it was "just" the power button.
Many people then actually bought a pad for the first time to keep their phones on until they could get the power button repaired.
Hey
So I know this kinda has been asked before but not exactly like what Im experiencing!
My original turbo charger broke after 3 years and I got another one off ebay and i think it was fake or something and when i left it charging overnight, the next morning i found out that it screwed up my usb charging port and now its not working/detecting any cable/charger anymore. So I figured i'd use a wireless charger so I got this model - https://www.ugreen.com/product/1327-en.html - and when i place it on top of it, blue light is turned on and battery lightning bolt icon on nexus 6 appears but it doesnt charge and im keep losing battery as if i was using it normally! any ideas? -- Nexus 6 7.1 rom, rooted and franco kernel.
Thanks
If you know someone else with a Nexus 6 you could test if the charger is compatible with Nexus 6.
But actually I think your el cheapo charger fried your charging electronic.

Yeah the charging system is gone; And from what I could search on the net, looks like it's not easily repairable.
Is it possible that somehow the wireless coil cable is miss-aligned or something? I opened it up couple of times before to replace the battery and lcd. And this is the second wireless charger I tested with and both behave the same! Says charging but actually not charging.
anybody knows if its possible to enable wireless charging on nexus 6 refub? im suspecting mine is refub and based on what i found here, its disabled by motorola!

I opened up the phone, tried to re-aligned the coil, still the same. the charging bolt icon appears but when i go to Battery Settings, its says "Not Charging". this is super weird. i dunno what else to try.

I think you need to reallign the cable with the 4 contact landing zones. The position of the coil is not that important.
But wireless and USB charging are both power sources for the same charger chip. If this chip is fried you probably can't charge at all.

hm... you're mentioning a very good point. i opened it several times and aligned the cable, even added some tape to hold it in place. i guess its the chip since the wireless charger's blue led turns on to indicate device detected and charging but Android menu says not charging.
Hi
It has been a few days that i have faced a weird problem with my phone.
My phone suddenly stopped charging with fast chargers and only works with super fast chargers.
When connected to any charger other than super fast charger, the charge drops instead of rising. When i connect a super fast charger, it charges fine. But sometimes gets 95% and some times gets 100%. If i reconnect the superfast charger, the phone wont even show charging. Must switch to normal charger or wireless charger and switch back to super fast charger in order for it to work.
Being on or off does not affect the results.
Wireless charging works fine.
Due to the conflicting results, I can not guess the cause of the problem.
Whether the problem is from the battery, Main board, charging socket, or software or malware, i cant figure it out.
Any suggestions?
Best I can suggest is clean your type c port with a sewing needle. These ports get trash in them everyday very easily then packed in.
The bottoms of these ports are metal not plastic. Shiny silver metal. If it's dark black or anything other. Its dirty and your cord is not being inserted all the way due to the trash compacted in. I have seen this on a regular basis and 9 out of 10 times this is the cause

Hi, did you find a resolution to this?
My Samsung Note 20 is doing the exact same thing.
It will not charge with the normal charger.. I have to first charge it a bit with the wireless charger and then with the normal charger. As of this morning, the wireless charging is also intermittent.
Thanks.

Hello
Unfortunately, I have found no solution for this. I have sent the phone to service center. Since they have not said anything yet, i guess it is not a software or even a known problem. It is definitely a serious hardware problem.
I am having the exact same issue here as well. I plug it into a normal charger and the battery continues to drain. A lightening charger is the only thing giving it juice.

Well if factory resetting does not solve the problem, don't waste your time for a solution. It is a faulty hardware. Go to Samsung service center instead. The will probably replace the motherboard or the phone.
My phone fell and now it turn off after a few minutes.
The strange thing is that it works well e doesn't turn off if it's connected to my notebook.
Instead it turns off if connected to the charger.
What is the difference and what could be the problem?
PS. I replaced the battery, but nothing changed
So it occurs to me that the USB port on the notebook gives a small charging current, and the charger gives as much as the phone demands.
It is likely that the battery charge controller on the phone is faulty in its high current acceptance mode.

Ok, but in both cases the battery charges normally and the phone also turn off with full charge battery if not connected to pc.
So, the problem can still be only the battery charge controller?
Anyway I buy it and try to change it

If you have a good quality charger, do not buy a new one.
