Nokia DT-900 works great and is relatively inexpensive. I have it and a Tylt stand-up charger and both work flawlessly with a couple of different cases I use. The Tylt is nice but pricey (I got a deal on one).

Plenty on eBay from China for 20$ or less.
They work great.
Got one. Still OK after 1 month of heavy use.

I have the Nexus 4 charging orb. Works with the Nexus 7 and sets it at a usable angle as well.

I recently order a TRUE wireless charger by Choe: http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Char...&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=upgraded+choe+qi+10000
It is an integrated 10,000mah power bank that can charge without being plugged in. Also has external USB for charging other devices.
It ships from Japan, but I ordered mine on the second & it is already in Los Angeles & thru ISC (Customs). They play it safe with shipping estimates, but it will have only of taken about a week when I receive it. I'll report back on quality & impressions after I have used it for a few days.

Looking for a good wireless charger for my nexus 5? get one now with DC 5V/1000mA to 2000mA - amazon.co.uk/dp/B00C40OG22 :victory:

I just purchased this Zens Wireless Charger :
http://www.androidcentral.com/zens-wireless-single-charger-review
Looks good and works fine. Just a heads-up...charging times are double that of the original Nexus 7 cable charger. A full charge takes 6 hours vs 3 hours. I have tested this extensively. Price is pretty high I must admit as well. The real benefit of course is you can just put the N7 down on the wireless charger and forget about it.

Plus 1 on the Nokia DT-900 it is fantastic and unlike a lot of others it's not fussy about where you place your N7

Got one of these myself, charges through my moko case, and charges very quick, used some velcro and attached it to this, it's still on sale from at&t for 50% off. Highly recommend this.

I got the new qi charger for nexus devices on Google play. Its a nice update from the nexus 4 charger, and really compact.

Looking for a good wireless charger for my nexus 5?

So basically im looking for a good wireless charger. I want something that charges fast too. any recommendations?
How about this?
http://www.amazon.com/UPGRADED-Wire...dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1
Does this work?

It works. I have it. It may not stop charging at 100% though. Mine keeps blinking like it's charging even at full and my phone gets hot. Not sure if defect or what

I've been using this LG charger with my Nexus 4 since January and it has been flawless. Works great with my Nexus 7 as well. Highly recommend it.

I'm looking to buy the DT-910 as it props the device upright so I can use the nexus as bedroom clock. The other wireless charging thread has a couple of users that say it works well. There is also a link to cheap dt-900 (similar to what you linked) by you need to buy 3 to get it cheap and it's in the US. I'm UK based so no use to me.

just a question: the 900/910 stops charging when reach 100%?

I bought this Kookpad wireless charger off Amazon and had it waiting when my phone arrived on Monday. You can get it in white or black. It is very placement insensitive. I ordered a 2nd one last night so I could have one at the office.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DQCUVPI/ref=cm_sw_su_dp
Read through the Amazon reviews. Some people didn't like the buzzer on it, but most people found it charged well.

The quality isn't great though. Mine worked for about 6 months, then died. I got another one and that seems to be working, but only time will tell.

Which one charges the fastest if price isn't an issue? I would like to have at least one that's fast.

When I got my N5, I used a HP Touchpad AC charger (up to 2.0 Amp output), this USB current measuring device http://dx.com/p/usb-av-usb-power-current-voltage-tester-translucent-blue-silver-235090, and then measured the input current to my Note 2, Nexus 5, and then Koolpad (linked on my previous post) with my Nexus 5 charging on it. The battery was about 55% charged so we were definitely in the constant current section of the battery charge (maximum current). The results were.
Note 2 Input current = 1.28A
Nexus 5 Input current = 1.08A
Koolpad (charging Nexus 5) Input current = 1.09A
The tranfser of power between the Qi charger and N5 isn't 100% efficient so the current into the N5 is something less than 1.09A. Guessing efficiency is 70-90% so that would mean 700mA to 900mA (0.7A - 0.9A) into the N5. I have only had the phone since Monday, but the charging time seems to be very similar between using a cord and the Koolpad Qi charger.
That is the only Qi charger I have tested so far. I don't know how others compare. While researching Qi chargers, I had read some people post that the Nokia DT-900 charged on the slower side..... no data to back that up.

Do these alle work fine with cases?

What about the samsung qi charger ?

I've order the nokia dt-900, when will arrive i will make test of time charge, temperature.
Anyway the wirless charger is not 100% efficient...if you search for a faster charge, use a 2,3a USB charger. (Remind the lion battery, for safe and longevity, have to be charge at Max the mah of the battery it self. So a 1000mah battery, Max 1a charger)

I got the Zens wireless charger from Shop Android. When it came I fell in love with the design and ordered 2 more for a total of 3 to have around the house. BIggest mistake ever. I also have the old Zens charger and the samsung S4 charger and the new zens is the only one that gets super hot. Don't know why but when I take the phone off its on fire. Sucks too because now I have 3 of these.

There's definitely some quality control issues with the Nokia chargers, but I can't imagine them saying you'd have to buy another. Their service is outstanding (experienced with multiple defective 920s) and I can't imagine they'd just go tell you to kick rocks.

Well, it was the equivalent. I had to pay $15 to ship it there (I had to use UPS, I couldn't just use a $5 flat rate box). then $10 for them to look at it, then free shipping on the way back. That's $25. I can buy another charger for that money.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I didn't actually "buy" the charger. It just came with my 920 from att. That was their reasoning behind me paying shipping charges.

Fast Wireless Charger Suggestions?

Anyone have a good recommendation for a fast wireless charger for this phone that doesn't break the bank (I'm looking at you, Samsung)?

I have two of these:

And they work great... not that expensive either.

So I ordered this based on your recommendation but I can seem see get it to work with my OP7P. I tried it in my macbook pro and the dongle itself seems to working fine but the phone does not detect it. Are there any special set of setting that I need to do to make sure the phone see it?
More about my phone, US version:

No additional kernels and a few Magsik modules added, see attached image.
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.

I didnt do anything other than make sure the plug was pushed in all the way to the adapter then it shows as charging. By the way, its starting to fall apart on me already so not the best quality but didnt expect it to be.

Will the adapter play audio only if it is being powered externally? And by that I mean the male USB-C port.

Does it support warp?

Anyone give this a try yet: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07S33GV3...colid=EQZ8ESZ25EY7&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
Looks promising...

Ugh. Why can't a manufacturer figure out that warp charging is one of the main selling points of the OP7 Pro and the whole reason it doesn't have stuff like wireless charging, because it's all about fast fast fast charging? They would make a freaking fortune on a warp charging capable usb-c/3.5mm combo adapter.

Because the real reason there is no wireless charging is the same reason there is no 3.5mm jack. It is corner cutting and you can not cut corners correctly if you actually replicate the function in a new way. Then you would be creating something new and no longer cutting corners thus defeating the purpose of cutting the corner in the first place. lol

Fast Wireless Chargers

Does anyone have a recommendation for a fast wireless charger? The official Google stand is crazy expensive and doesn't actually meet the max capabilities (12W EPP)

I wonder if the Samsung one i have will work ??

Hey guys,
Let me know what you ultimately find. This will be my first phone with wireless charging so never looked at the wireless charger market. Would love to see which options you guys think are best.

There's loads of 15w wireless chargers on Amazon, I'm sure they probably all do the job more or less as well as eachother

The Pixel Stand is buggy as hell with the Pixel 5 (or maybe the other way around?). So you might be better off sticking with USB-C for the time being anyway.

I have a samsung one from 2015 and it works fine with my pixel 5

I was thinking of trying this one. Rated upto 15w https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07YD77RKC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_WSyJFb1A4YY11
I've never had any bad experiences with Anker.

For max output doesnt the charger need to be google certified!
I'm asking because, as far as the Pixel 3 goes, that was the case. The Pixel stand, from reading, was the only wireless charger that was compatible in that sense.
Anyone willing to shine light on this?

I assume so?

I bought Yootech wireless charger for my Pixel 4, it also works at around 10W with Pixel 5. I've not tested many, but from what I've seen on some forums most of the chargers would only work at 5W with P4. Not sure if anything has changed with P5. I'm using it with the original Pixel 18W charger, as I bought it without one.

I've not used wireless charging since the Nexus 4 and 5 and i thought it was pretty crap but owning a Pixel 5 has once again sparked my interest and i like the look of that one, seems great for the cash.

Well i ended up buying one and although it is very well made and charges quickly i didn't like how hot my phone got when left on it overnight to charge so I'll be sending it back. This isn't a fault of the charger though more a side effect of the technology, it is just a shame it doesn't cut off totally at 100%. If you are going to be using it to just top up for the odd hour or so it is hard not to recommend it though, it is hard to believe they only want a tenner for it to be honest, a great find by kinny314.
