Just wondering. I might mindlessly place it on the touchstone after connecting to the computer.

Same mod but for Samsung Galaxy S2.
Only if you know how to solder and have a 12 watt soldering iron with very steady hands.
nope. no problems having both wireless charging and connecting to computer.Just wondering. I might mindlessly place it on the touchstone after connecting to the computer.
I'd be interested to see what others are getting in terms of the charging current. Although standard USB charging on the S3 is about 466mA, I normally get 360mA for my max charging using the wireless touchstone. I did get the max of 466mA once, but not sure if that was a fluke as I wasn't able to get it back again.
Charging current can be measured using the app from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2076078
I'm about to do this and I'm just wondering if there are any issues connecting the phone to my computer (to transfer stuff) while it's charging on the touchstone.
Tried the suggested app but it didn't report anything other than -1.
+1... Err... I mean I also get -1 on Task's AOKP ROM
My phone charges fine, so I'm not too concerned
Has anyone using a custom kernel tried enabling Fast Charging to see if it makes a difference with wireless charging?
Tried the suggested app but it didn't report anything other than -1. I'm using that nifty rom from Task, 2013.02.10.

From what I can tell (from my own limited testing) there are no ill effects to be had from attaching a USB cable to the device while it is actively charging on the touchstone. The device switches to USB charge, and back to touchstone once the cable is removed. Before someone asks: no it doesn't charge twice as fast.

pretty much you need a compatible cable AND 1A charger.awesome, thanks for the reply. So, do you pretty much have to use palm branded plugs or is it just the usb cable? LIke do I have to connect it to a socket using the palm charger or can I just use the palm usb cable and connect it to my computer/car usb lighter plug?
I am considering doing this but with a twist. I would put the coil between the otterbox rubber and hard plastic and put the wires though a hole in the battery door. I would probably have to cut or thin out the rubber so it would fit flush, but I am confident it could go through the fairly thin otterbox plastic.
