Which one do you have? All you have to do if you bought the official. cover is snap the old one off, and snap the new one in. If you bought just a "pad", then you have to stick it in a way so that the gold contacts come in contact with the ones on the phone (stick it over the battery).

Use the attach function and pick from your gallery. Or upload it to imgur or something.

Did you plug in the charging pad?

XDA, Check these two pictures. Some times the Tab on the receiving pad needs to be slightly bent to assure best contact with the pins on the phone.
When you lay it on the Charging pad the LED sould go Green and you immediately get a musical tone with a popup saying "Wireless Charging."
Bottom line if this doesn't work Thoth is good about replacements.

Does the 2 contact pins stay in place after you place it in the slots? On mine I press it down but it doesn't stay snap in.

I'm looking for a cable and other accessories.
The only Streak cable I have will provide a charge when plugged into a laptop, but not when plugged into a wall (A/C) adapter or into a car adapter.
Weird, right? Any ideas? I might make a thread on this, but as part of the trouble shooting I'm sure people will insist on my obtaining a different cable to try. A bent pin may be the cause. Who knows.

Resets every time it's powered off.

So I have my gear fit which I use with my galaxy s4 (4.4)..every time I power off the switch for eg I have to go to sleep and I indent to use it next morning... When ever I turn it back on it resets as in loses its basic setup... Profile wallpaperLayout I have to pair on every boot...any help? Thanks
Why are you turning your fit off? I wear my fit when u sleep so it records the sleep and movement. These devices are not meant to be switched off and on.

When you shut it off, you're effectively resetting it to factory.
So, yes, that's normal.
Ohhhh .....let me guess it's the same with your watch ? Some people told me that it's because some of the watches sold early are demo watches and have demo mode permeantlly enabled. ......?

i have this issue too, since i pressed the hardware button longer after i turned the phone off.
i had this "reboot" screen like in the download mode screenshot from general gear fit forum, after this screen now, the phone resets now every time after reboot.
using a PIN is now useless.
but it means it is a software problem not a hardware problem.
Phone resets or the watch....
I got a replacement and it's just fine.

No, it's just a software problem of the gear fit. i have different phones.
i read that i did unfortunately a factory reset because i holded the power button long -
after this factory reset i got the "every time reset".
There is every indication that somewhere a setting was overwritten when i accidentally factory resetet it, which causes this problem.
i am sure it will be fixed in the next update.

Just how water resistant is this thing?

So I think I'm going to turn over a new leaf and try to keep a phone for at least a year. Well doing so will require an otter box or similar. The problem here is wireless charging. If it doesnt charge I'm going to have to use the plug. I know first world problems If I take that annoying flap off before it snaps off will the USB port still resist water?
Sent from my SM-G900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If you have the flap off and the stock Samsung charger isn't in it, it is not resistant to water.

The wireless covers are already available on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Wireless-Charging-Cover-Galaxy/dp/B00ITI24EK/
Although, they really don't seem all too different than the standalone wireless charging receivers which can be had for a third of the price: http://www.amazon.com/JIAKE-Wireless-Charger-Receiver-Charging/dp/B00JO1TLJW/

I've had my eyes on a similar product and it seems they aren't thin enough to seal the cover on. The only review of this one says he thinks its sealed so I'll keep my eye on that one for more reviews.

To enable Qi charging on our devices with the Circle case it is my understanding we need the international backplate. I may be confused tho and it may be NFC+ we need the international back for.
That makes sense as the thread I read was talking about the carrier on carrying no Qi enabled cases. Which makes sense if our devices don't have wireless charging backs.

I saw the person that posted about that, but it ended up that he didn't have the right case base on what Verizon told me. I guess we will just have to wait and see. I would be okay with a Qi charging back too.
VZW would do something like buy rights to put the only Qi backs on their G3s
