My note 4 with official samsung Qi charging back fits in my gear VR fine.

Can the phone charge with QI with it fully inserted in the Gear VR?

[Q] Is the Note 5 wallet charger any different from the S6 Edge one?

I am using my S6 Edge wall quick charger to charge my N920C, but I have the feeling like it is taking alot more to complete compared to the Edge.
Most of all I see no quick charging sentence or symbol on the display.
Is it just an issue or I must use the Note 5 charger to complete the process quickly?
Any adaptive fast charger will do the trick. The one included in the box of your S6 should work just fine.

Really? I have a few adaptive chargers that I bought separately for around the house and at work, and all of them seem to be the same as the one I got in my Note5 box. Didn't notice they were slower at all.

There has been a misunderstanding.
I am talking about CABLED wall chargers, and not Qi inductive chargers.

20$ Wireless Fast Charging Pad

http://amzn.com/B015XF17VM
Yootech® QI Fast Charge Wireless Charger charging pad for Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 Edge Plus(Adaptive Fast Charger NOT Included)
BAM!! No need to say more. Got this a month ago, actually at 14.99$ and i'm very happy. Charges from 20% to 60% in 30 minutes. Also the LED on it doesnt blind me while I sleep like the Samsung one does.
It also 1/3 of the price of the Samsung fast charging pad.
P.S. Check ebay, saw a few floating around for even less than 15$
Ordered. Thanks!

I love this thing!!!!!!! Thank you so much =)
Look for the refurbished OEM Fast Charging pad. Bought 2 of them from Amazon for around $20-$25. Both work flawlessly.
I bought a second. I have one at my desk, and use SideSync to manage my phone all day while easily charging without wires for a quick grab and go when leaving my desk. THIS IS WONDERFUL
You can get 2 for 20 on amazon.

Nice find. Just ordered one. I just hope this is really safe and won't be a fire hazard like those cheap chargers out there.

but that's not a Fast Charger, its a normal wireless charger, the one OP mentioned is a Fast Wireless Charger.
It's weird that the Yootech fast wireless charging pad won't work at all with the Samsung charger that came with my Note5, but works perfectly using the Aukey 3 port charger with Quickcharge.
Ordered two of them. Such a killer deal and they work perfect!
Anyone tested this thing yet to confirm it works?
I ordered this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/35155034463...49&var=620580429407&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
and the damn thing charged at regular speeds. False advertising at its finest. Returned... don't want to buy this one if it's Chinese junk that isn't what it claims to be.
Use this chart to compare: http://phandroid.com/2015/09/25/samsung-fast-wireless-charging-comparison/
e.g. start charging your phone from xx% for 30 minutes and compare where you end up with where they ended up using the Samsung OEM fast charger.

UNIFUN works perfect, just like the samsung OEM and is 15W just like the original, find it on Amazon for $23

Hey can we charge our note 5 on these with the cases on them or does the case have to be off? Thanks!

Cases usually work fine with it, provided they are not super heavy duty or thick

Is the original N5 charger still working fine on this thing? I order 2 for next week and in the same situation as you.
I should have been patient bought one of these. I decided to get an OEM sapphire black, Fast Wireless charge pad. It cam included with a fast travel charger and cable. Not a bad deal for $69.99 But its ok, I cant return it now, but I know now that I have a cheaper solution, the moment it doesn't work. Nice find

Not all QI fast chargers working with N8

Have a variety of fast QI chargers that all works well with my N5, even with cases (think and thick cases).
Use the same chargers with the N8 and it seems to be a hit or miss, especially with cases. Some work and some do not.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I have the Samsung Quick Charging Stand and a Spigen triple coil qi charger that's a rip of the Tylt Vu. They all work well but the spigen doesn't quick charge.
Chotetch fast charger works, confirmed because I have one as well as two convertibles from Sammy.
The choetech will charge the phone through the Sammy military grade case (whereas the Sammy one wont).
Triple coil standing Aukey works just fine, even with a case.

did you use the note 8 plug for this? i have the same charger which i got for the n7 and been using it for the s7.
the s7 will say fast wireless charging but with the note 8 it just says wireless charging and the time at 31% is 2h24m. in both these setups its using a sammy n7 charge plug.
I have two Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charging Stands (EP-NG930) that worked great for the S7 Edge. They however do not work with the Note8 (with or without my spigen case). I tried it on a cheap flat (not fast) PowerBot Wireless charger pad and it works. Does anyone know of a good fast wireless charger stand (not pad) that works? I'm waiting for the new Samsung Fast Charge Wireless Charging Convertible to come in (the pre-order gift) but some people say that does't work sometimes in the stand position. I need a second charger for work.

I may have jumped the gun on this. I use an Anker 40w 5 port charger to feed the Seneo, as I also have a Gear S3 and an iPad that I charge at night. My Samsung charger is in a desk drawer somewhere.
I'll dig it out and hook the Seneo up to it to see what happens.
I went into a Verizon store and my Note 8 worked on their last Gen wireless charger with no problem. I believe I purchased my chargers on ebay so my conclusion is they must not be official changers and are knock offs. They look exactly like the official chargers down to the label on the bottom. They obvious knock offs have a slightly different label. The "some people" I was referring to were people who had the same experience as me based on researching this problem. Learned my lesson, saving a couple of bucks isn't worth it in the end.
I have two of the original Samsung fast charge pads (an American one and a Korean one) and they both work on my Korean Note 8 through its slim case.
Think thats my problem. I have a whole bunch of aftermarket QI Fast Chargers. Some seem to work better than others. But they all Work Well with my N5.

I have an older samsung fast charger that samsung says is not compatible, even though thier own website shows it is. Contacting the Qi alliance to suggest samsung isn't compatible.

Question about these wireless chargers, if I don't use a Quick Charger adapter, and instead plug it into the back of my monitor for power, will it just slow charge it wirelessly? Or will that not be enough power for it to wireless charge altogether?

Probably won't have enough power. Definitely won't fast charge. Those need to be plugged into a fast charger

The Fast Charge option does not appear in the settings menu unlike my Note 5! I have not been able to use my Samsung vertical Fast Charger with my Note 8 but I can with my Note FE!

Not there. According to the manual should be under Advanced Settings under Battery under Device Maintenance
Weird. Wonder if it's different from a carrier version vs. an unlocked. Try a search for Fast Wireless Charging

[Q] Can Galaxy S10 charge the Galaxy Watch?

I have ordered an S10 (not Plus or E). Publicity material shows galaxy S10 charging Galaxy Active Watch.
I have a Galaxy Watch. Will the S10 charge that also?
If the 10 variant has the same powershare as the 10+ then yes it should. I have the s3 Frontier

I saw one official S10 ad where they specifically mentioned the Galaxy watch. I have read though that a case may affect the charging of another device like a watch or phone.
I have little hope that the S10 will charge the Gear S2 or Gear S2 Classic. There are no wireless chargers that work with the Gear S2 other than the original charger. It's something I've always hated about my Gear S2 Classic. If it actually does work, I'll put it up there as one of the best reasons to buy an S10. Can't tell you how many times I've forgotten that stupid charger and ended up with no way to recharge the watch.
Yes it will work to charge all Galaxy watches. My Samsung rep was in my store the other day with an S10 plus and we tested the watch on the back of the phone and it worked just fine. He said that the coils are optimized to work with a phone or an accessory such as earbuds or a watch.the reason why most wireless chargers don't work for the watch is because the coils are spread out too much and not optimized for the smaller watch.

Which watch?
If possible, please provide evidence of a Gear S2 or Gear S2 Classic being charged by the Galaxy S10.
We tested with the brand new watch and with the s3 frontier. I'll be at an s10 launch event next week. I'll ask for you
Yes. This was addressed and demoed at the keynote.
I have the S10+ and it fails to charge my Classic S2 watch, which is very disappointing. It charges for about 2 seconds and then disconnects. Further research only shows that no one with an S2 watch can charge using the wireless power share.

Right, it won't work. It is S3 watch and up
Tested ok with S10 and S10+ with Galaxy and S3 watches.
with my supcase the wireless charging wont work for buds or watch. phone charges fine tho.
It doesn't work with my Otterbox case either. It would be a nice travel feature if I could drop the Galaxy watch charger but I didn't expect it to work and I don't really want to pull the case just to charge my watch. The phone does charge fine on my dual charger though.

Sure, but my post you quoted said with an Otterbox case on the phone. It's not supposed to work with a case anyway, and if it does consider it a bonus.

Galaxy watch 3 charging wireless issue

I have tried to charge my Galaxy Watch 3 on Wireless Charger after 7% charging, it became hot and started to show msgs even there was a cool environment. What should be the solution?
WHat type of wireless charger are you using? The one that came with the watch, or some other?

Did you check the ratings. I have had this happen when the charger was not rated/intended for my galaxy watches. Just a thought...
Yeah, I found that the Galaxy Watch 3 is quite sensitive with chargers. It won't work with my old Gear S3 charger either. After a few seconds, it'll start blinking red and stops charging.
I tested it at home first of course, but apparently not long enough. I went out of town and left the charger at home thinking that I just use the S3 charger I've got at the other place. I ended up having to charge it by reverse charging with my S20U. Which is a PITA because for that to happen I have to remove the wristband. The SS wristband that came with my Titanium holds its shape and the watch cannot be layed flat on the phone with it on.
