Been looking through the forums and master list of accessories. I can't find a case that fits the wireless charging back for my phone. Any help would be nice
if you're talking about one of those replacement backs that include the wireless chargers, then no, there are no cases out there that fits around those backpieces.
if you're talking about the little receiver you place underneath the stock battery back, then i would suggest, uag, otterbox, ballistic, and a bumper case off the top off my head.

i got the incipio silicrylic case for the phone and am looking for a universal dock that will charge the phone with a case. so far i've considered the seidio innodock and this universal dock from amazon but im still not sure if they will fit with the thicker silicrylic case.
another option was just to get the Clingo stand and use the adapter to charge.
anyone have any suggestions?
Also wondering if anybody knows a good Micro-USB stand that can charge with a case (NEO Hybrid) without any problem.
Was thinking the case might be a problem as it takes a couple of mm of space beneath the phone and that the dock USB-male won't have enought height..
The dock from Amazon linked above does not work with my Ringke Slim case - the USB connector is too short and it doesn't plug in properly. The case is pretty slim, but unfortunately it doesn't work.

yah i was thinking the same thing about the mirco usb adapter. the one on the innodock is raised and pivots so i think it has the best chance of working with most case. Seidio states that the innodock works with their active case which is very similiar to the silicrylic case.
Just made the jump from S2 to S3. I have the QCell extended battery and TPU case. Anyone know of a belt/horizontal leather case that will hold this monster?
I'll be checking this thread. I don't have an extended battery but I have the Otter Box Commuter on mine. Would like to find a nice belt case. I still can't get used to putting it in my pocket.

Look for a luximo case.. I am not sure it can hold an otterbox, but it has stretching sides and is larger than most belt cases. It worked well for me. I found mine on ebay, but I have seen it on amazon as well. A simple search for S3 and luximo should find it.
Luxmo
I have the Luxmo horizontal case myself (with magnetic front flap, two-belt-loop and one clip on back). It works reasonably well.
I have a cheap no-name hard-shell case on the SG3 (which I now use without the original accompanying holster because the holster grip got loose and the SG3 slipped out and fell to the ground twice; but that's a separate topic).
Although the SG3+hard case fits the Luxmo case, putting in and taking out is a two-handed operation as the phone doesn't "slide" in/out easily. This is due to the Luxmo's side elastics catching on the USB port or headphone jack opening of the hard case. Perhaps a more "slippery" TPU case or smooth plastic case would work better.
But the SG3+hard case does fit inside the Luxmo snuggly and I've been pretty happy with it.
Just ordered a couple of TYLT Vus and I’m considering getting the i-Blason Prime Series Dual Layer Holster Case, http://www.i-blason.com/prime-series-dual-layer-holster-case-for-google-nexus-5-by-lg.html, as well. Anyone have this combination and, if so, does your TYLT Vu or Qi wireless charger work with it? Thanks.

I want to say possible no because of the grooves on the back of the case with the addition of the kickstand. With the kickstand alone, I think that would be hard pressed to work with the Tylt Vu. I have a couple of cases i-blason candygel and spigen ultra hybrid and those two work fine. And keeping in mind the coil looks like it's closer to the center of the phone, based on my usage of the Nexus orb. And because the kickstand is right smack in the middle, you may need to remove the case to wirelessly charge.
On a side note, I have heard the case is pretty easy to remove.
For what it’s worth, I didn’t buy this case. I wound up purchasing http://www.maxboostpower.com/shop/m...stand-fits-all-versions-of-google-lg-nexus-5/ instead and the TLYT Vu and Maxboost case with kickstand work swimmingly together and I figured I’d chime in as the i-Blason case appears similar. While I haven’t looked to see if the phone will charge faster if the kickstand is removed, it appears to be charging plenty fast.
I also have another small post regarding the Maxboost case at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557909.
Cheers.

I own it, but I didn't review it like I normally do. Not sure why. The case is a very good case for a 20 dollar case. It's basically a bugdroid tpu hot glued into a wallet case. It's a bit bulky, but the majority of that is the tpu case itself. The case is a smart case and the clasp is nice and strong. However the clasp is a bit of annoyance to me because it sits awkwardly on my wireless chargers. The best qi charger I have to use it with is the Tylt Vu because it can accommodate landscape charging. The orb barely holds on and it just sits crooked because of the clasp. I'll sell it to you if you want. I have the whitish/black version.
From this wallet case, I went onto the Rock Slim Elegant case. VERY thin. Think of it as the Poetic Palette with a flip attached to it via hinge. Very slim compared to the Cruzerlite, but not as much overall protection. Plus the front flap doesn't stay closed, but I have it in my pocket anyway. Needless to say it works with wireless charging like a champ. However, not a smart case. No magnets on this case. I would say this would be the minimalist flip case. No card pockets here.
And then I found what I initially thought was the perfect slim wallet type case; the Seidio Ledger. I have come across an issue with what Seidio calls the soft touch on the case that holds the phone. While it feels like pure butter in your hand, my two cases resulted in the soft touch material rubbing off on various parts of the case. I have been working with Seidio for the past week and seeing if there is a fix for it. So the jury is out on it. I love it, it has a cut out for the LED, no other flip case I know of has this, the kickstand, not needed but nice to have, has a smart cover and the metal kickstand is not THAT obtrusive when placing in my various wireless qi chargers. I have the Tylt Vu, Nexus Wireless charger and the Nexus orb charger.
Hi all,
Just been looking at a few different car docks for my N5 that have Qi wireless charging and come across two which I'm tossing up..
There's the AirDock ($69) which holds the phone via magnets and micro suction foam
iOttie Easy Flex Wireless Qi Charger, ($72) which has the locking mechanism rather than magnets..
Has anyone had experience with either of these two? I'm leaning towards the Airdock, but my next question is, whether the magnets will work through my Spigen SlimArmor case.... wireless charging works fine through it, so I'm assuming the magnets would too..?
TL;DR- will the magnetic mount work through a Spigen Slimarmor case?
I got an airdock myself. And use a Spigen Neo-Hybrid case. The magnets are pretty strong.
And even if they are not strong enough to use with the Spigen Slim armor case. There is a sticker with metal slaps (really thin) wich you could stick on the inside of your case.
Inductive charging will work just fine i recon.
Hope that helped.

That would definitely do it if the internal magnets didn't work too well through the case.. Thanks for your help!
