I was just checking out dmcgrath009 wireless charging thread which is pretty cool, but it got me thinking about all the cases with wireless charging which then lead to a youtube search. This this of course side tracked me from some dude's review of a powermat of the s3 to an iguana farting in a bathtub (best 10 seconds ever) so I checked out powerskin to see if they had something and I found this http://www.power-skin.com/battery-cases/htc/one-x.php a powerskin for the one x+ and x. So it should fit but the dedicated camera button might interfere and if you can't live without a kickstand you're SOL. I personally like my evo without a case, but if you need more juice here's a maybe solution.
Are the dimensions and charge ports in the exact same place? I was gonna buy the seido one but its not even out yet and this one is 30 less I'd much rather get this if I knew for sure that it'd work

I'm pretty sure it should work, but like I said the dedicated camera button might get in the way. The one x and evo have the same dimensions accord to what I've seen, but they do have a return policy if not. I really don't see a need for it since I go all day on meanrom 6.4, but others might want more juice or aren't rooted and would want more juice so I'm just throwing it out there.
Yea I'm completely stock due to not being tech savy, so my battery life isn't great, I'm a pretty heavy user as well
Anyone try this yet? I would definitely buy this if I knew it would fit!!!
Sweet. I'm interested in this. But waiting for someone with a bigger wallet than me to test it first....

Its not about having it. I dont trust it enough to spend $40. If i made i made double the money i do now i probably wouldnt care about $40. Its just my mentality man
I thought the x and x+ use the contact pins on the back to charge the battery. If that's the case, no way it will work with the LTE.

If you look at the pictures you can see it uses the side micro port. There are no pins inside the case. I might bite the bullet and try this.

The seidio version utilizes the pins but not this one.

i compared my EVO Lte to a One X the other nioght when i stopped by frys.. the charging port seems to be in the correct place but the "volume up-down" rocker on the one x seems to sit about a half inch lower... so im not sure it will work without some modification..
For $80 bucks you think they could make the area where the charging port is flush-er, it looks like a 90 degree plug with a cord. I'll pass and see what I can do with my old touchstone.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
This one actually does use the pins in the back I've already seen it. It has two contact pins in the back that connect to the one xs charging plates. The micro USB port is wat charges the battery inside the case.
It will NOT work for the LTE.

Hey Guys -
I know the wireless charging will work because of the Qi standard, but will the phone stay put? Any impressions from those who own it would be appreciated.
I could be wrong but I don't think its magnetic.. the back of the nexus is glass I think the orb is just a rubberized surface that "grab's" the back of the phone.. i.e. just friction holds it on... I think!
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
Nobody has the orb yet, I think. It just now became available, with shipping withing a week. Plus the shipping time. I ordered one the first day it was available, but don't expect it before the end of next week.
Ok, they are shipping them today. Won't be long before we find out.

I'm with you on this one, because I read it would be compatible with windows 8 and htc phones. And pictures look like the two circles on top are rubber. Just what it looks like to me
I have the touchstone charger and it has magnet in it.
from what I see it is held up 80% by friction, 20% by magnetic force.
Too bad the touchstone wont work on Droid DNA otherwise I think it would be a great charging dock.
Mine will be arriving tmrw (Friday)

Magnet lightly holds. The surface of the orb is quite sticky and holds it just fine by itself - the magnet is obviously less apparent with a case on.
No case:

Works like a charm! Together they're a thing of beauty.
So there is a magnet in it? I thought it would only be the anti-slip rubber that they try and sell for car dashboards. One question, does it work with the phone horizontal? That's something my Nokia DT-910 can't do.

Yes there is a magnet, yes it works with the phone in landscape.
However, it doesn't activate DreamScene or whatever it does with the N4 (also doesn't flip home screens to landscape like it does in car mode).

The dream mode is a 4.2 feature so I don't think anyone expected it to be on the DNA. And on stock there isn't landscape homedscreens. You'll either need a Rom or a 3rd party launcher for that.

I really don't get the big deal over wireless charging. Instead of plugging in a cord you lay it down. Am I missing something?

Not at all, I'm not a big fan either but some people like it.
After about a year my GNexus usb port broke ( using a Philips Docking Station to charge ) so constant wair/tear on usb port can render it useless. I've seen others with similar problems. The wireless option would preserve the port for more important things other than charging.
I tried wireless charging I preferred the extra batteries route

It's just about convenience. I still haven't jumped on board, hasn't been worth the price IMHO, so far. Even with the $20 cover, you still have to get a wireless charging pad.
One other thing to note. Wireless charging is slower and thus preserves not only USB port, but battery longevity! Efficient.

I wonder how long it would take to charge the Note 3 battery. My S4 battery took quite a while to charge. The Note 3 battery is give or take about 1000mAh bigger than the S4

Another consideration is whether cases will still fit since the charging cover is thicker.

I like wireless charging, since it is pretty convenient... have 3 charging plates at various plates at home/work, using it with S3 right now. Wonder if there is a Qi card option vs. the plate for the Note 3, given that it is pretty thin.

You can mod it to fit but i hear with the wireless backplate, your case won't fit
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
I hope it doesn't increase the thickness of the device much, unlike the S4 where it was pretty noticeable. As for charging speculation, I'm wondering if there will be a USB 3.0 specific wireless charger solution or something, if that's even possible. Otherwise I'd imagine it'd take forever for such a high mAh battery to charge up wirelessly to the point where I think it'd be better just to buy the spare battery/battery charger base accessory seeing how good the battery life is.

my nexus 7 takes about 5 hours
If that were the case here then two hours vs. five would be too slow for my tastes. My Note 3 went from 1% to 100% in two hours on the 3.0 charger...

Finally my search of finding a perfect wireless car charger for a giant Nexus 6 comes to an end. I recently purchased a Pocket Wireless car charger from Amazon with rotatable metal hook that fits both vertical and horizontal air vents. The package also contains cigarette lighter and comes with 12 month warranty. It cost me even less than $40 with free shipping across the USA.
Post a picture with it. What's the point of a charger up on the dash if it covers half the screen? Seems pointless to me.
Ya I don't care for it. I like to flip through music...
