Magnetic mount + qi? - Galaxy Note 3 Accessories

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DPMNNUO
Anyone tried using a magnetic mount like this with a qi insert tag? I'm concerned the magnetic strip may interfere with the charging.
Has anyone tried any sort of metal case that interfered with the wireless charging?

Ridiculously slow charging?

My charging cable hasn't really been working well and I just noticed it only has four golden colored prongs inside of it. Can anyone confirm this isn't correct before I order a new one?
Edit yea its not the cable this thing is just barely charging.

Is it the OE cable? And charger? If its not that's your problem.

mine does the same thing from time to time. if its charging slow unplug it and plug back in, then make sure the red light is on. i have noticed sometimes when i get a email or text and the charging indicator goes off(red light), it seems to only be trickle charging per say.

I don't think I have ever used the charger & usb cable that came with my Note 2. I have never had any issues with it charging. In fact, I am currently using a Motorola wall unit with a no name cable upstairs, & a cheap wall unit from Walmart & the cable from an Acer tablet. Both charge fine.
I'm using OEM charger and cable I installed an app called galaxy charging current and its showing a ridiculous fluctuation. I'm thinking it may be a faulty charger. It charges much faster on my car charger.

Car Charger

I currently have this car charger:
http://www.amazon.com/PNY-P-P-DC-UF...fkmr2&keywords=usb+2.0+car+charger+pny+2.1amp
When I first got it, I shorted the pins to force it to charge in AC mode. Now that I know it is capable of 2.1amps and our phone can accept similiar amperage, will I need a micro usb 3.0 cable for it to charge at 2.1amps? Or will my old galaxy s3 usb 2.0 cable be able to charge it at 2.1 amps as well?
Bump for update

No, a USB 2.0 cable will charge at the same current as a USB 3.0 cable (1800mA with the screen turned off, 1200mA with it on).
If the max is only 1.8amp then why is our charger rated at 2amp?

Overhead.

Change the color to black and it's less than half the price. Isn't there an app that will tell you how much current it is drawing while charging?

I believe there is also a loss of energy during the transfer of energy. The process is not 100% efficient.

The app is in the Play Store and named Galaxy Charging Current

Those pins are for Qi charging. The NFC pins are above the battery.

No I believe that's the ID chip for the s view cover so the phone can tell the color of the case, genuine product and type of s view (tall or short, although I don't believe the short windows will come out for our notes
no those are the wireless charging pins, the sview pin is the bottom one of the 3 which is clearly missing on that case

No, those are not for wireless charging. They are mounted low enough to contact the bottom 2 pins, which means they control the S-view features.
The charging cover would have 3 pins there plus two pins higher up to contact the NFC pins (if present the wireless charging coil would interfere with the built-in NFC antenna).

My wireless charger and the back of my device gets really hot

Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Free mobile app
Is this normal?I wouldnt think it would be normal.and it gets so hot that you can really hold onto it that long.I stopped using it because of this problem.any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Its normal mine does same when was stock . after u take it off it cools down right?
Magnetic induction tends to heat the coil up... and this is the heat that you feel
So this will not hurt my device or my wireless charger? Thanks In advance!!!

If you peel off the cooper shield on the back cover it will help reduce the heat a bit. Also finding the sweet spot on the wireless charger pad also help too.

Antennas problem?

What is the purpose antennas that are under the back cover, i damaged them...?
one is above the wireless charging, the other is at the very bottom?
How did you damage them?
