[Q] LG Qi Charging Pad - HTC Droid DNA

Who has this and how does it work with the DNA? I read on Amazon that it has a really loud beep when you place it down or pick it up, or if it reaches full charge, etc. Another reviewer said they simply opened it up and pulled out the speaker.

So I do have this. Works great.
Oddly enough if the phone was on vibrate I don't remember it beeping.

I could only take a couple nights of being woken up by the beep before I ripped into it. Here's a thread on how to "disable" the speaker.

I have it. It only beeps when you first lay the phone on the pad. Love the convenience and mine is sitting on my nightstand, so the initial beep doesn't bother me since I'm obviously awake (I hope) when I place it on the pad.

I have it as well. It makes a loud beep when you put the phone down, and will beep if the phone isn't correctly placed. I have it on my bed stand and I have never been woken up by it beeping when it fully charges.

I just ordered one on amazon because they are 39+shipping rather than 79+shipping...
Honestly, this phone is perfect in every single way besides sense isn't my favorite Rom and the battery life. I have to charge it once during the day in addition to charging it overnight. Which is why I ordered this charging pad so I can just set it on that when I'm at home doing work or what have you.

they are only $49.99 at VZW. If you have a corporate discount, it brings it down to $37.50. I went this way, no waiting and much easier for warranty issues.

Will the QI charger work with an ottebox case on the phone?

Typical of wireless charging. It charges no faster than USB.
I think the heat may come from the wireless charging coil.

I ordered one last week for $34 shipped from Amazon. Got it Friday. Works like a charm and don't think it's that loud either
Not an iPhone.....

My concern is that the heat will hurt the life of the device.
Unfortunately the heat comes with the territory.

LG Charging Pad
I bought this charger and have noticed a problem that seems like it could be a defect. When I place the phone on the pad it beeps (no big deal). After a while when the phone gets to a full charge the phone beeps (no big deal). What I don't like is that the phone does not actually ever get to a "full" charge. On the pad I have, it seem to only get to about 99 percent and then stop charging only to start again after a few seconds. Almost every time the charging stops and starts, the screen lights up and whenever the charging kicks on again it does the glorious beep. I read this from one other person on a forum so I hope this is just a defective unit. Can anyone tell me if when using this charger, your phone charge light ever turns green? When using this pad, my phone's charge light never turns green and I'm concerned that by using this my phone is getting a lot of extra wear and tear from the on/off of screen and charging. I already contacted the vendor and I think I'm going to do an exchange. If the second one has this behavior, i'm probably just going to scrap it for the Nokia even though they're more expensive. It would seem you get what you pay for I guess and i'd rather not take a chance...

Was your phone hot or just the charger? I'm curiuos to as to what the long term affect is going to be but its a risk I'm willing to take for the convience of wireless charging. I'm still waiting to see if it will charge through an Otterbox.

For me, its just the phone.

If I use a wireless charging pad at my office, is it going to hurt the battery in any way to be constantly picking up the phone and putting it back down on the charging pad, i.e. constant short charging periods? Will it effect long term battery life or possible just throw off the calibration?

I just started a new thread in Q/A on this very question.
---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 AM ----------
I ordered the Nokia charger from Verizon Online directly. I have a 35% discount so it was $35ish shipped. Most should have a Verizon discount so check that before ordering only from Amazon.

EZO Dock for the Rezound

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0077EU85E/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details
Just got this bad boy delivered today and so far, it works great and it has slot to charge a second battery but unfortunately not an extended battery. It does have a insert in the main cradle however that can be removed so you can charge the phone with certain cases and possibly an extended battery (Have not tested yet).
Pros:
Can charge the phone and another Battery at the same time.
Has a good weight and is very stable.
Cheap!
Cons:
The USB wall charger it comes with does not give you a full AC charge but a USB charge. I changed out the wall charger and I was back to AC.
Can't charge the extended battery on it's own. (you might be able to do some cutting in order to make it fit however.)
EDIT**** I know I said that this will charge an extended battery but I'm not sure that's fact yet. I believe it will only fit certain cases and not sure if there is enough room for the extended battery. If after testing it does fit, I'll make the corrections here. Sorry if I got any false hopes up.
looks cool, may pick one up.
says in the description that it doesnt fit the extended battery

I believe the blue light is power and the green light is for the second battery. If you put a battery in there that needs juice, it'll turn red and back to green when charged.

Maybe I have a different one, or my USB on the charger is at a bad angle but there's no way the phone will charge with the extended battery with or without a case. Bummer! Still awesome though.

Just ordered mine! Can't wait to play with this puppy
This is a better option than the Verizon dock that I got with mine. In order to use it I have to take the phone out of the case every time...and no slot for an extra battery. Now I just need to sell my dock...
Thanks for this link. I've been looking for a dock that will fit with the case installed.
Well first off I have to say that shipping with this seller is top notch. Wasn't expecting it this early.
Within the first 2 seconds of having this dock I broke the thing that keeps the battery snug in the back. I used my training from my days with the A-team to make the battery stick. The phone with extended battery fits but kind of awkwardly. I MscGyver'd something else to make it sit more naturally.
Umm I really do need something to charge both so I'd order again if I had to, it's a decent dock just not made 100% the way it should be IMO
I am looking at this unit or at another unit:

Not sure why anyone would have tried both, but if so, any comments?

[Q] Battery Temp Issues

So, I've been getting this notification that the battery temp is too high so it stops charging my Note. I have no idea why right now, but I'm looking into it. Just started a thread wondering if anyone else is having a similar problem. I'm using the OEM charger and cable. I've tried this both with the OEM battery and the gold 3250 battery. The phone is in a flip case on my bed and I feel like that may absorb the heat causing the temperature to rise, but I really have no other ideas beyond that. Anyone got a clue as to why this is happening now? I've been charging the phone on my bed for about a month and this just started happening recently.

Mines fine here also in a fitted case gets warm a little but nothing major id send it in
note @ 1.83
I would definitely call warranty. I wonder if something is stuck running in the background that would require intense CPU/GPU power (like Google navigation).
Its common on my other phone while in the car dock using Google navigation to briefly stop charging. The phone being exposed to direct sun light and heat from charging and navigation is too much. A built in protector stops the phone from charging when its too hot then resumes once it cools etc.

I'm telling you, call warranty. In no way shape or form is your case causing this. I have a TPU case on mine. Way more restrictioning than a simple flip case. Mine never does this.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
i think the original charger can cause this too. i'm using a rubber casing which i bought just around the corner and this sometimes occurred to me as well.
When charging and operating the phone at the same time, the phone heats up at a higher temp. Theres no doubt as it did with my previous iphone and gs2.

Can't charge because I am draining too much ;/ Scotty to bridge She got no power left

I drive a VW GTI, I got a bogus speeding ticket (I was going with the flow of traffic!), I was so pist that I went out and bought a Escort Redline (Radar Detector) with the Escort Live app. Essentially my radar detector connects to my phone via blue tooth. I also have my car's stereo has bluetooth (for phone calling) that is also hooked up to my phone via blue tooth. On top of that I also have GPS enabled.
When I plug my car charger, I get a message saying I can't charge my phone because I am using more power then what I am putting back into the phone. Other then the obvious, is there a solution for this problem that allows me to keep this set up without draining the hell out of my battery?
I am using ICS Energy rom (because its awesome!) and the charger is a proprietary device from Escort that plugs into the 12v slot, and the charger has a USB plug in that I just plug my phone into.
I do basic texting and fb, it tells me that as well muchless your setup, lol.
Sounds like the charger is only a 500 mA instead of the 1A you need for the power you're drawing. The stock charger is a 1A

Good god how to you get by! lol! At least yours doesn't drain, I think every 15 minutes kills like 20%. I wouldn't mind if it could just break even, not lose or gain any power.
I'll look into the stock HTC car charger. I really don't want that many wires in my car, I was hoping to use just the one to power the Radar Detector and also my phone. I do have another 12v in the back trunk, I guess I could buy an extension and run it through the floor (under the mat) to the front.
Hey was it just me or was the site offline for like 20 minutes?

I get that message using the stock charger and yeah it was down for a bit, try reducing your background programs, dropping your brightness to the lowest possible setting and change screen timeout, etc, see how much load you can reduce other than those that you want to have running.

I have two stock and like six other chargers around my house, so defective is a nope, I don't have a car yet either.
Forgot to mention I was on Telus stock, light tweaked.
Really? Stock? Why is that? Circuit board going bad then? Seems odd that it would say that when your not doing anything. I tried Speed Rom for about a week, it is sooo glitchy ;/
Yeah I notice a lot of the Devs here are pretty young lol. I'm 27, this car is my first buy xD SO! I recommend a radar detector when you buy a buy/own a car, and if it legal, also laser/radar jammers! You will save yourself time and money! I live in California, stupid state one of two that bans laser jamming ;/

NYC probably has that ban as well, since it's practically hardcore like cali is, na, my device is fine, it happened on my first device, but I think it's due to my background apps and screen brightness that uses more power than the charger can push at times.
Your car charger should at least be a 1 amp output. Plug it into the phone and check the Power status. Should be "Charging AC" otherwise it's not 1 amp charger.
Sam's club sells one for 10 bucks.

Wireless Charging

I just picked up a wireless charging pad from my VZW store.
I love it!
I can now just set my phone on the nightstand next to the bed and not have to worry about plugging it in.
Thank you HTC for finally making this built in, and not an option!

Did you get the LG one? If so, supposedly the thing beeps super loudly every time the charger turns on according to the Amazon.com reviews.
You are supposed to be able to take it apart and remove the speaker from the board.
I just ordered 2 for $35 ea from there... hoping for the best.

Great. I'm curious if the beep happens every time the charger kicks on (I believe it shuts off automatically when the phone is fully charged) or if it's just one "beep" when the phone is set down on it.
Either way, I'll probably be disconnecting the speaker since I will use one bedside (don't want to wake the sig other) and one at work and don't want to bother my coworkers either.

i was on the fence yesterday about getting it, and picked it up today and i am so glad i did. i especially like how firm of a grip it has. i still think i may pick up the energizer one from amazon so i can have one at home and one at the office
I'm thinking of picking up the LG pad (and ripping the speaker out) to put on my desk. I can't think of anything more convenient that just putting the phone down and it charging up. I'll probably continue to use a charger at night for now. I'm not really crazy about the LG pad, and you know there'll be more options out there soon. I'd rather hold off and get one that's maybe more stylish, or slimmer (and no beep!) before I invest in a second pad.
I'd like to see a USB powered pad if possible, so I could toss it in my bag and take it to work with me (no free outlets at my desk so I currently charge my phone through the USB port).
I just ordered the nokia charger from verizons website, it is compatible with DNA.
Long Term Use
I have read that wireless charging causes the battery to get warmer than corded charging. I wonder since this is a non-replaceable battery will that effect the overall life of the battery. Is anyone else worried about long term use of a charging pad. I love the idea but wonder if it will cause issues later on.

What I'm worried about is the constant charging and discharging that will happen when we're forced to charge it over night, at work, and then in the car.

I didn't see it answered anywhere, but if you go with the wireless charger will you be able to keep a slim case on it? I don't want to put an otterbox on it or anything since it is already a pretty big phone, but I would like to put one of those slim form-fitting cases on it.

Qi charging at 100% battery

Hi everyone,
New G3 user here, absolutely love this phone. I got a Qi charging sticker (http://amzn.com/B00MMRWS5E) and charger (http://amzn.com/B00F1SHFJA) on Amazon and both seem to work great, except for one minor hiccup: when my phones reaches 100%, the charging will shut off completely. It does not appear to trickle-charge; I put my phone on the charger at night and when I wake up my battery is often somewhere in the 90-99% range and the Battery panel in settings shows it as being off charge for sometimes several hours. I've searched high and low on these forums and through Google, and come up empty.
This issue isn't really a big deal, except that it messes with the Tasker profile I have set up to pair to my Bluetooth stereo when wireless charging (for music alarm). I realize there are ways to tweak the profile to work around this anomaly, but I'd really like it to work this way and I can't shake the idea that something is borked with my phone.
Anyone else experienced this? Is this standard behavior for this phone? My next thought is to try another wireless charger (the Tylt looks pretty cool) and see if that has any impact on it.

This issue isn't really a big deal, except that it messes with the Tasker profile I have set up to pair to my Bluetooth stereo when wireless charging (for music alarm). I realize there are ways to tweak the profile to work around this anomaly, but I'd really like it to work this way and I can't shake the idea that something is borked with my phone.
Anyone else experienced this? Is this standard behavior for this phone? My next thought is to try another wireless charger (the Tylt looks pretty cool) and see if that has any impact on it.

I have no issue, put the phone on the charger at night and in the morning it still shows charging at 100%.. I would suggest trying a different charger, I got generic one on ebay, sticker and pad cost a total of $8 and it works great.

Testing wired charging tonight to rule out if this problem happens with wireless-only charging or any charging method. I'm starting to suspect my qi charger more and more, but this will tell us for sure.
Turned out my original Qi charged was faulty - new charger came today and everything works great! Phone charges to 100% and trickle-charges from there, and best of all it doesn't bork up my Tasker profile. All is well in the world.
Case closed.
EDIT:
Here's the one I got that caused this problem: http://amzn.com/B00F1SHFJA
And here's the one that does not cause the problem: http://amzn.com/B00JA7HNZO
