Wireless charging and cases

cb1111 · Aug 26, 2014

Let's talk about cases and wireless changing - what works and what doesn't:

For example
Works

Generic charging back and cheap gel case works with Tylt charger
Generic charging back and cheap gel case works with LG hockey puck charger
Otterbox defender works with the tylt vu and qi sticker
Nillkin bumper case works with the Tylt wireless charger
Slim Armor works with the Tylt Vu
Qi sticker chip with generic eBay hockey puck (Powerbot clone) and it charges with Seidio Surface
Qi sticker (from GB) on OEM backing with Quick Circle Case (without the built in inductive) works on both the Tylt Vu as well as the LG WCP-300 puck.
Ringke slim case and with the 3 Coil wireless pad+original LG USB cable+2A Samsung charger (links in post #21)
but
Doesn't work

slim armor DIDNT work with Nokia Dt910

Works partially

3rd party quick circle case with wireless charging I got off of Ebay and ordered the WCD-100. Although it worked I kept
getting the center phone correctly message every time I put it on.

Best Buy Insignia TPU case has some trouble with the Tylt Vu. Wireless charging notification pops up frequently

How about posting here what we know works - and what doesn't. I'll update here from your posts so please make my life easier and give me something that I can just cut and paste.

Does the generic charging back and the Tylt work with the Otterbox Defender? How about the Seidio Surface?

You forgot about the Qi sticker chips for those who purchased.

I have a Qi sticker chip with generic eBay hockey puck (Powerbot clone) and it charges with Seidio Surface.

Overall, I think wireless charging will work with any case so as long there is no interference such as magnets or something.

My slim armor DIDNT work with Nokia Dt910. Had the on off issue. Ordered a lg wcd100 will see what happens.

EDIT : forgot to add that i got the slow charging message when using the case.

I have a 3rd party quick circle case with wireless charging I got off of Ebay and ordered the WCD-100. Although it worked I kept
getting the center phone correctly message every time I put it on. Returned that to Amazon and ordered the Tylt. If I continue to have
problems with that one when I get it then I'll know it's the case that's the issue.

This thread will be hard to follow just like the "What wireless charger works best with the G3" thread. I had to read that thread over and over. lol A list in the OP would be nice but a little time consuming to make I guess.

Nillkin bumper case works with the Tylt wireless charger. I will test the Insignia case at some point.

Doesn't matter if you use no case, the Nokia DT910 will do that with this phone.

Could you let me know if the slim armor case work with the wcd-100 wireless charger?

Slim Armor works with the Tylt Vu.

sweets55 giving the OP more work? LOL.

OP: have fun updating the post every so often. I've been in that position before. Lol. Also, you didnt update first post with my post in regards to Seidio Surface working.

It should cut down on the same questions and not everyone has time to read a long thread. If OP didn't want to do it I could have done it

Maybe the OP also needs to add "a case and charger might work for someone and not another person. I guess depending on the sticker/placement".

I have the same combo and seems to be working fine for me. I'll try another charge tonight.

I apologize for not updating the first thread within microseconds of someone posting - sheesh.

In order to make this thread worthwhile, we really need more information on some of the more obscure combinations. Stickers, for example, can come from multiple vendors and each may be a different quality. I'd suggest adding a link for no-name products. I'll continue to update the first post every couple of days for a while until we have a good representation of products.

I am using this OEM rear plate.

I am also using the Best Buy Insignia TPU case.

The charger is the Tylt Vu.

The Tylt works fine without the case on the phone but has trouble with this case.

Slim Armor works with the Qi sticker and the Amazon Cheotech charger....

It was a joke. Calm down. And my comment about the Seidio was because you updated the original post with stuff that was posted after mine and thought you missed it.

As for the Qi sticker chips, there's only one source that makes them but obviously sold by many others.

Just got my official LG qi charger WCD-100. I really like it, it's stable, and charges quite fast for qi. I got it for a pretty good deal so I don't mind and this is my 3rd qi charger that i currently have and by far the best one. It's really nice because I can't place my phone on it the wrong way. You just put it on and you're done! No alignment bs like on my other ones.

Qi sticker (from GB) on OEM backing with Quick Circle Case (without the built in inductive) works on both the Tylt Vu as well as the LG WCP-300 puck.
