G2 wireless charing(verizon) - G2 General

anybody use it? and which model wireless chargers do you guys use. I was thinking on leaving one on my car do you think it would be safe to leave it plug in car?

Sure. Lots of us do. Why

Is there a setting for keeping the phone off while WC? Mine always turns on when I set it on the pad.

which wirless charger do you guys use? is it ok to buy cheap ones on ebay?

I have the LG one and my wife has the droid branded one. I would not trust a cheapy to stop charging when phone ours at 100%

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.

yeah i use the Nokia one. seems to be the best one. as for charging with the phone off, I have no idea, I never turn my phone off.. lol

I've got the tylt vu but don't charge over night. Its a pretty fast charger and I love how it's tilted so I can see notifications at work easily

I use the nexus 4 qi charger, I like having the phone up at and angle to see alarms, calls, etc.

I have a Qi charger from my Nexus 4 for sale if anyone is interested. Worked perfect for the few months I had the phone. PM for pics

Wireless Charging Pins?

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

[Q] Best Battery Pack?

Hey guys, I'm just wondering what you guys think is the best battery pack for the price? I want one that isn't too expensive but can give me a couple charges. I know some of you probably already have battery packs, so what are your guys opinions?
This is what I ordered.
http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP52D-Thunderbolt-Blackberry/dp/B0013G8PTS/ref=pd_sim_pc_1
I used the motorola one available at Verizon. It was $60 after corporate discount. 4000mah. It charged both my wifes iPhone 4 and the DNA to approx 75% off one charge and had some juice left...maybe 25%. Used the Eco 1800mah one and it died before fully charging phone. I read some bad reviews on the 4000mah Morphie.

Noisy charger

I use the stock charger to charge my phone once a day. Since I have had it it seems to always be making this somewhat high pitched buzz. Sorry don't really know how to describe the noise. Just want to know if this is an issue or does this just happen with the charger. Has anyone else noticed this with their charger?
Thanks for the help!

Sounds like a capacitor has swollen in the charger. Replace it with an OEM unit asap as the output has surly changed. This may lead to battery fatigue/failure.

I wouldnt use the nexus 7 charger cause the output on it is 5volt 2amp on it. the DNA charger is 5volt 1 amp. it might be too much juicefor a smaller battery. the n7 battery is more than twice the size of the dna. If it was me I would at least use one for a phone.
So I should use my dna charger until I get a replacement? I guess I will just have to go without a charge for a bit as these are my only two chargers, I lost my samsung one.

So just got off the phone with HTC and they are sending me a new one no questions asked. This is my first experience with HTC support and I'm very impressed on how they handle issues. Thank for all the help. The rep also said I could use my nexus 7 charger without it harming the phone.

Even though the rep said it was safe for you to use the Nexus 7 charger, I'd get a 2nd opinion. They are no experts, just people reading form a computer screen. Heck, when I called Verizon about service plans I got 3 different answers from 3 different people.
Yea if its not oem outputs don't use it

Even though the charger is defective it still charges so I'm just going to use it and keep and eye on it until my replacement arrives.

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
