One of the things I was really excited about with the Lumia 920 was the built in wireless charging feature. Since the Nokia charging plate was selling for about 70 bucks (ouch) I decided to see what alternatives were available. I've tried two different wireless chargers so far with mixed results:
LG Electronics WCP-700 - This charger works great and I was able to snag it from amazon for 35 bucks shipped. If you want wireless charging but don't want to pay 70 bucks for one charger, then I highly suggest this model. You can get 2 for the price of one Nokia Charger.
Powermat 2x - I was hoping the community could give me some advice on the powermat. Naturally if you plug the powercube into the phone, it will charge just fine. BUT I noticed that if you put a charging plate on the charger and then put the 920 on top of it, the 920 will begin to go into charging mode, although when i tried doing that, it didn't really seem to be charging at any noticeable rate( I may have been taking the phone off the charger too frequently though). Does anyone know exactly what voltage and amperage the powermat wirelessly charges at? My concern is that the volts or amps will be off and damage could be done to the battery in my lumia 920. Any thoughts?
Good questions! I was wondering the same thing about the different mats out there.
What about the Energizer one?
Also, the LG one apparently beeps a lot...does it do so with the Nokia? When it finishes charging it turns off and lets the phone run off battery for a bit, then turns back on to top it off again, causing it to beep each time it turns on throughout the night. Have you noticed this?

From what I've read, the Energizer QI chargers will work fine with the 920, I just didn't get one since the LG model was a bit cheaper. The LG one does beep, although I haven't found it to be too much of an issue. When I place the phone on the charger, the LG mat will beep and show the green charging icon, and my phone will make the connection noise. I also think the mat will beep occasionally when the phone is charged, since it lets the battery drain a bit, then starts charging again, although last night it didn't wake me up at all while I slept. You could probably remove the speaker from the LG pad fairly easily, although from my experience, it's not bothersome enough to be worth the trouble.

Doesn't the PowerMat use a different wireless charging standard? I thought I read somewhere it wasn't the QI standard.
PowerMat is its own standard.
Not sure where you are, but the plate is $50 and the stand is $70 here.
Might want to try mail-order?
As for other plates, I have a few lying around, but I don't want to risk my phone trying them without knowing. I have 2 plates and a stand, so I am pretty covered.
Philips DLP7210B/10 also works with the Lumia 920.
I ordered a Palm Touchstone off Amazon for $6 and free shipping. I'll know in a few days when it gets here if it works or not, but I read somewhere that it should.
Sorry to disappoint you, but the Touchstone does not work. It makes the charging notification sound, but the battery still drains; it doesn't charge at all.
I have the Maxell Airvolt QI charger. It works but the phone seems to get warm unlike the Fatboy charger I use at night.

I really hope someone makes a 12v charging pad to keep in your car. Plug into the cig lighter and lay the phone on the "pad" somewhere in the car. I know the new dodge cars have it as an option now.

There's no reason why a 12v adaptor of sufficient ampage wouldn't work. Just match up the plug and polarity to the DC adaptor that comes with the charging pad.
But obviously a QI charger is not designed for use in a car. QI only recently release their guidelines:
http://www.wirelesspowerconsortium....ermarket-chargers-v-10.pdf?force-download=yes
It seems there are two current wireless charging standards: QI and PMA
Powermat are PMA, and this is a copyrighted licensed standard, i.e., Powermat will get revenue/license on each device. There is a limited trial in Starbucks.
QI is open, and I think a "free" standard. They have public charging spots in Japan, and Japanese handsets are predominantly QI
This is all just what I've recently read, so I'm not an expert or utterly certain it is correct, but it does seem that Nokia 920's are to the QI standard, and so any QI charging plate should work...?

I personally plan to do just this. I figure a Qi compatible charger hard wired into the car, then find a good place to mount it with a thin grip pad covering it. It should work just fine.

Ooooo, my Edge has a little 'shelf' under the console that has a ribbed rubber bottom. And it has a 12v plug right beside it. I bet my husband (the engineer) might be able to wire up a charging plate. He would need to shorten the cord so it wouldn't flop around. But he's very good at that sort of thing.
This is a great idea! He works overseas but I think I have a new 'honey-do' for him on his next R&R. Thanks!

tabletop charging
I personally think it would be awesome to be able to integrate QI wireless charging into a tabletop. think about it, when you sit down at a table for dinner, you usually take your phone out of your pocket, right? what if you could charge it while you eat? why doesn't starbucks do this?:highfive:
Has anyone purchased/used one yet? I am looking at getting one, but haven't yet, mostly because I haven't found one that I am sold on. Thanks
I've got two different ones that I've tried now and neither of them keep the phone charging, but the battery will usually stay at the same amount. They charged my Nexus 5 pretty well even under hard use while driving.

Funny enough, one of them is the same one you just posted, just a different brand name. Worked good for my Nexus 5, but my LG G3 usually just stays at the current level when I put it on there with Ingress or Waze plus BT Streaming going on. If it is hot out it loses charge slowly.
Here's the other one.

Grips MUCH better, and is a really nice mount. 3 coil also, but not enough juice to do better than the other one. I've tried multiple 2.1A usb chargers too.

Does your DigiYes consistently charge your phone? I have one of the DigiYes models, but I'm finding it frequently stops charging, often within seconds of beginning charging, though sometimes it lasts a few minutes before giving up. I always get the "Wireless Charging" message on the display, never the "slow charging" warning.
I tried swapping their 2.1A cigarette lighter adapter for an Anker 2.4A charger -- same deal. Tried adjusting the vertical position in the charger -- sometimes seems to last a little longer before giving up, but generally doesn't help at all. When it stops charging, the blue light stays on (rather than going back to green).
When it does charge, I seem to get a decent charge current out of it. Very confusing, and probably going to get shipped back.
Edit: it seems to drop out less when charging from wall power, though it still happens -- perhaps correlated with greater power demands on the phone (Google Earth).
I did state above that it charges my phone, but if Navigation and BT Streaming is going on it keeps it at a steady level, or if hot discharges slowly.
If you don't have a 3 coil QI charger, positioning is very important, if it charges and stops, it is a positioning issue for sure.
Changing to a higher amperage charger won't help, as Qi only puts out so much. The new Qi standard coming out should fix this for us though, it transmits 2 amps I think, and has more distance so positioning shouldn't matter AS much.

Does the DigiYes disconnect constantly like the one I have? Or no?
Nope.
My other one did, but after adjusting how high it sat with the bottom brace that problem went away.
My air dock keeps the phone at a steady charge while running navigstion, bluetooth (aptx) via stock music app, and 100% brightness. The thermal protection activates eventually and lowers the brightness to 90%, and then it starts to very slowly charge. It charges fast if not running anything.
Also, you don't need 3 charging coils. My powerbot disk style charger easily works without worrying about position. I opened it up and the whole thing (~2.5") is one big coil. The air dock works well too, but I haven't opened it up.

I have two air docks (from the original crowd funding campaign) and neither one of them will hold my G3 (with the included magnets used). How well is your sticking? I wonder if I got an early batch that didn't stick well?

It works perfectly fine. Does yours use both magnets and the suction pad? I believe they were separate options in one development point. Also, my car was dusty and it did get some dust on the pad which made it not hold, but wiping it with a damp cloth and letting it dry fixed that issue.

My DigiYes 3 coil frequently disconnects, sometimes in a constant connect-disconnect loop. Other times it holds for a while. It seemed to do better when I put it on a higher amperage charger than it came with, along with the original G3 cable. However this could be coincidence. When it does charge, the charging rate is comparable to any of my desktop qi chargers.

Yeah, I now. But our Z3 offers a magnetic charging port - which also allows full charging current and this adds no bulk
Also you can charge everywhere and only have to carry a small cable instead of a bulkier QI charger. Or you chan use a dock, whatever you prefer.

Well, the point of Qi is that it's universal. E.g. a Nexus charger will work with a Lumia, will work with a GS4. Z2 and Z3 can't even use the same dock.
I get why Sony used the magnetic charger, the thinnest qi coils are still around 1mm. When the phone is 7.3mm thick, it adds up. But personally, I wouldn't mind a thicker phone, but I understand their reasoning.
I absolutely agree. If QI was readily available for most battery operated devices that would be very convenient. As it is now it does not matter if you buy a magnetic charger or QI, because you have to buy each for your phone.
The Z2 dock works for the Z3 - no problem there.
I'm torn between this and the Style Up cover with the window. I don't see why they couldn't add the smart cover functionality to the Qi case. I upgraded from a Nokia Lumia and I have a couple of wireless chargers at home that I was hoping to continue using.
Then again, this Qi case costs more than the Style Up cover and the dock combined!
The style up cover has been delayed until November 4th according to an email I got from Amazon today.
I did look at the Qi charger for the Z2 but it was/is quite ugly and bulky. So it's mag charger for me. One dock and two plain magnetic connector cables.
I have two Qi charging plates and they're already quite busy charging a N7, G3 and 1520. And they do all take a long time to charge, and the N7 charges to full and then just starts to drain without ever topping up again. So leave it for a few days and it will have charged and then drained. No such problems with the magnetic connector.

My G3 takes 2.5 hours from 2%-100% with a 3000mah battery. Qi charging is fairly fast if you use a 1A output qi charger
USA's Verizon exclusive Z3v has QI built-in, that's actually prety useful if you ask me. I use the magnetic charging on my Z1 but QI would probably be more convenient. Too bad Brazil's model doesn't seem to come with this feature. I just don't get it, why put in on Verizon's model but not on global's. Maybe I'll just stick with my Z1 for longer and get the Z4 when it comes out (hopefully with QI built-in and optical image stabilization)

I don't quite understand that as well. Why does only the Verizon one have it? Maybe they are saving it for the Z4 or they just don't want to implement it into the Z3 that is already in production. I heard that the Z3v is a bit thicker than the regular Z3 because of the Qi Charging.. Besides that, I guess you can get the Charging dock fr the z3 instead. Either way, you won't have to remove the flaps so I guess it works. If the Verizon Z3 had international bands, I'd purchase that one instead (unless the carrier is branded all over the phone).
Verizon will most likely brand the hell out of it. Verizon is also CDMA, not GSM. won't work outside of the states.

It wont... because the magnetic charge connector on the Xperia Z3 can only receive power and cannot communicate. So there is no way it can detect if a magnetic charger is connected or a Qi chargepad.
Im searching the web for weeks now trying to find a bumper for my Z3 with Qi over magnetic connectors. I dont understand why companies did not come up with that allready. It wouldnt add any more thickness to the bumper, and you could easily charge 1000 mAh. In wich the Phone will charge in 3 to 4 hours i guess. Thats great when charging over night.
I see were you are comming from. The culprit is the QI charging pad output, so you are still left with that low current.

True you only pay more for extra coils the name brand and possible quality build.
Nexus 4 orb
The nexus 4 orb charger works great with the Nexus 6. Charges to 100%, stops, then starts up again at around 96%. However, this stop/start charging cycle does not make any noise.
I did notice early on that my Nexus 6 would hit 100% charge, then completely stop. This was on a custom kernel (Franco), but once I replaced that with a different kernel (leanKernel), wireless charging started behaving properly again.
the Choe keeps it at 99 or 100, basically always charging....no extra sounds here either...IMHO works great.
and through a Ringke Fusion case
My question is this something to do with the nexus or all QI phones in general? Do they normally goto trickle charge? If so google should fix this, id imagine this cant be good for the battery actually really bad for the battery. Going really low or really high wears the battery more than keeping it in more of the ~30-80 range. Yo-yoing like that cant be good for the battery.

I Just received this the other day, and I plugged in my Z3 and it said Z3 detected, so it indeed does support the Qualcomm Quick Charging feature! Charging was fast and held strong with my Z3.Charging the battery from 0 to 50% in about 30 minutes. And the 6 foot USB cable is of good quality and really nice. It also fits into my Z3 with a nice click, and fits well around my case. I will definitely buy more of these!

The best thing about QC2.0 chargers is that long cables (like 6-footers) cause far fewer problems with 9V QC2.0 chargers than 5V chargers.

I think it's about the same amount of time as the Oppo N1 lasted, same for the Find5.
I'd sometimes muck with other devices, but Find5 was my primary until N1, N1 was my primary (with a brief stint on Z3) until Find7, Find7 was my primary until Z3.
The Z3 IS indeed the absolute longest I've ever lasted without rooting or unlocking though.
