CR-200 Car Wireless Charger Issues

Hi,
I am a proud owner of the new CR-200 wireless car charger for my Lumia 920.
There are three issues I would like to highlight.
Why does the suction cup on the holder have GLUE on it?
This means I am forced to permantly leave the holder stuck to the mounting plate. It also makes it impossible to place the holder on the windscreen in different cars which is my prefered postion as opposed to the dashboard.
I thought the whole point of the holder was that you could detach it and store it out of sight. Although you can remove the holder from the mounting plate the glue residue on the suction cap means it will attract dust and fluff rendering it useless over time.
Incorrect weather location is shown on the CR-200 App
I live in UK Twickenham however the app insists on displaying weather for USA Twickenham despite having auto location enabled!
Unable to pin Company Contacts to the Quick Call list in the CR-200 App
I have a number of Company contacts in my contact list. I use the 'Company Name' field for naming them, therefore the 'First Name' and 'Surname' fields are blank.
I have discovered you are unable to pin contacts to the quick call screen if the First and Surname is blank.

I can''t believe it... I've spent a year growling about the gluey suction cup on the expensive phone cradle. Luckily I have been happy to leave it in one place on the window of the car... until.... it was really hot a few weeks ago and the cradle was in the direct sunlight for a few days. The glue seems to have degraded and it started to slide down the window. Finally managed to get it detatched and the window cleaned up with some nail varnish remover, reapplied sucker, but same thing happened again. Have just read about the plastic film backing on the glue not being for disposal !!
Why couldn't they use a normal suction cup? Or at least explain in the instructions?!? I've fashioned a replacement with a cut out from a freezer bag... we'll see how it goes!!

Wireless charging issues Lumia 930 and DT-601

Hi all,
So got my Lumia 930 just over a week a go and everything is pretty much fine (other than the differences that need getting used to after two years of using a Iphone), however the one issue i'm having is with the wireless charging plate that comes with the phone.
It seems to be very tempermental with regards actually charging my phone, sometimes I can get it to charge and it is fine and then other times (like today) it will not charge no matter what I do, plug into wall, plug into laptop...no LED light on and no indication on the phone that it is charging.
At first I thought it was a hardware issue with the charger so went back to my phone suplier and they sent me the money for a new one. Initially this worked fine and I managed to get the original working (after a bit of patience as I didn't realise there was a slight delay between placing and charging). However as previously mentioned the last couple of days it's not charging at all (though did manage to get it to work last night but when woke up this morning it was sat there not charging.
Anyone else had these problems and is it more likely to be a phone hardware issue rather than the charger?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

sounding to me like it could be the phone itself unfortunately. have u checked you are up to date with the latest firmware for your device along with the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store? also try performing a soft reset.

Wireless charging phone holder to be placed in car...

Nokia please build a wireless charging phone holder to be placed in cars so that drivers can charge their phones while using navigation etc.

Thanks Farby,
@JianXingQuek
Hi if you look http://www.brodit.com/ and put in the make and model of the the device you have they should have a passive or charging holder for your device which can fit in you car. The charging option comes with a cigarette lighter charger attached but there are also options from various engineers who can hardwire the charger cable so that it is hidden and the cigarette isn't obscured.

My car has a wireless charger. will my iPhone 5 charge on this?

my car has a wireless charger. will my iPhone 5 charge on this?

Most likely the Owner's Manual for the car explicitly states that the wireless charging only works with a specific phone or phones or that you can buy a variety of cases (at outrageous cost from the dealer) to use this feature of the vehicle.

Lumia 920 Wireless Charging plate car adaptor?

Hello guys,
I really want to connect my wireless charging plate to my car. Maybe convert it to USB since USB car adapter can be found everywhere. Anyone knows where I can buy such converter?
Thank you.

I believe that the corded connection from the wireless charging plate is a 2.5mm connection, and thus won't connect to USB and therefore there are no accessories. 2mm chargers and 2.5mm charger connections are usually the Nokia proprietary technology, so unless you solder one yourself, I doubt you will find what you are looking for, my friend.

Lumia 925 + wireless charging back = broken BT voi...

I'm posting this in case anyone else has discovered this problem.
I've got a Lumia 925 with the wireless charging back fitted. If I use the phone with a Bluetooth headset to listen to audio on the phone, it is fine. If I use the BT headset, or BT functionality in my car, to make or receive a telephone call, the voice audio is very broken and intermittent. Sometimes ending and restarting the call clears it, but not very often.
What *does* cure the problem is removing the wireless charging back. I have noted that the phone does NOT need to actually be charging for the interference - it just needs to be fitted.
I am NOT sure if the problem is being caused by the accessory or by the phone itself. I am arranging for the accessory to be replaced first (less hassle) but it could well be the phone.

I am having the same exact problem. I was initially thinking that this is some compatability issue between my car's integrated BT support, but as you suggested, once I have removed the charging cover, the issue is gone. What's interesting is that this will continue even if the cover is removed from the phone and until next restart of the phone.
Anyone has solution to this? BTW: I can confirm that in my previous Lumia 920 and my wife's Lumia 820 with wireless cover this does not happen.

920 chiming on the wireless charging pad... grrr.....

A while back, one of the updates to the Lumia 920 caused it to begin chiming periodically while resting on the wireless charging pad (or, as I've discovered, sitting in the wireless car charger, too). I'm not talking about the initial chime when it is first set down and begins charging. No, this chime happens randomly as long as it remains on the charger... I've heard it happen a couple of times within just a few minutes, and I've heard it wait an hour or two before going off again. Of course, if you set the phone to vibrate, it will just "buzz" instead of "bing," but it's still going off.
Prior to this problem, I used to set my 920 on the wireless charger on my nightstand and let it juice up overnight. Once the binging started, I was forced to either stop using the wireless charger (bummer... that's one of the things I really like about the 920) or set the phone to silence so I could sleep through the random vibrating (though my work requires me to be on-call for emergencies, so that doesn't really work).
When I first contacted Nokia about this problem several months ago, they said they were aware of the problem and would fix it in a future update. Well, the "black" update didn't fix it.
I spoke with Customer Support at Nokia today, and the guy had no knowledge of the problem. (Wasn't too impressed with his knowledge about the phone at all, for that matter, but that's a different issue.) He asked if I had ever tried resetting the phone, which of course I had and was actually a part of the "black" update even if I hadn't. Then he suggested that it might be a problem with my specific phone, and he wanted me to send it in for an engineer to take a look. When I pointed out that we've got 4 Lumia 920s here and they all have had the same problem since it was introduced in an earlier update, he still wanted me to send in my phone.
So I'm really, really frustrated. I love my 920. In fact, the one thing that's kept me from jumping to the 1020 is the built-in wireless charging (I don't think it's as elegant when added with a case like the 1020). So am I stuck with ignoring the wireless charging capabilities now? Plugging it in the old way at night, and considering the investment of a bunch of wireless charging plates for our bedsides to be a waste?
Any chance Nokia will step in and offer a solution? Any other use figure this one out?

I had the same issue on my 820 and Black did fix it. Have you checked that you have updated all system apps after you got Black ? Lumia System Updater is one of the free apps which can do that for you.

Nokia 925 Wireless Charging

Hi, I have just acquired a 925 and I also have 2 920 at my place.
I seem to have a problem charging wirelessly on my 925.
Charges then disconnects then charges again.
Initially, I thought it was an issue with my charging pads, fyi, I have 2 wireless charging pads as well.
The standing version & they flat on table version.
When I place my other two 920 on either one of them, no problems charging what so ever.
This totally proves to me that neither one of the charging plates are faulty
So I thought, it's probably the chaging clip on on the phone that has issues.
I went to get it replaced today by the shop I got the 925 from.
Now I'm home, I'm still having the same problems when charging.
Is it my phone since I got the charging clip replaced already?

This an issue based on "BATCH!"
I got mine resolved by going to Nokia Care.
They replaced the back charging clip to new one & now it's charging perfectly well.
It has been observed that some back plates given as free gifts by Telcos were giving this prob.
It's not isolated, so going to Nokia Care getting it replaced would be an instant fix.
At least it did for me.

Qi Charging Case not charging with TYLT VÜ Wireless Charging Pad

I bought the white folding charging case plus the TYLT VÜ Wireless Charging Pad yesterday at the Verizon wireless store and it doesn't work.
The case seems to function and I do get the short screen display in the window but the Qi Charging is not happening. Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? I'm trying to go 100% plug free on this phone if at all possible.
The charging dock is here

Is there a fix for the MBP wireless dropping issue?

I began to experience the Macbook Pro dropping wireless connectivity on my very 1st Apple in 2008. At the end of the day my machine was replaced with a new Macbook Pro mid 2010. It appeared to be working just fine until about 2-3 months ago when I started dropping my wireless printer connection. I searched the internet hoping for a driver update from HP or something from Apple and each time I found something, the problem still existed. I even thought that by upgrading to Lion would resolve any issues that I have with my MBP wireless connectivity issue. After upgrading to buying a new router, new printer and upgrading to Lion; the wireless dropping issue still remains unresolved! I know there are several hundred in not thousands of people who are having the same problem so what are we supposed to do?
When my 1st MBP was replaced in 2010 I had to stop working because I was diagnosed with "Failed Back Surgical Syndrome" and was in the process of applying for disability. Something in the back of my mind said that I needed to purchase Apple Care for this new replacement however I had used all of my savings & retirement to sustain life for me and my family that there was nothing for Apple Care. If it weren't for my church and family I am not sure what I would do during the 18 months of no income while waiting for a decision only to receive an appeal until I findly stood in front of an Administrative Law Judge who heard my case and granted me disability. Besides there was no way I could ask anyone for money to purchase a warranty for a top of the line laptop while the country was falling off an economical cliff.
I broke down and called Apple Support and was told that I qualified for technical assistance regarding the upgrade to Lion a few weeks ago. The tech on the phone had me run some disk utility tests and had me repair permissions which she said could be the cause of the problem. I willingly went along with her in hopes that this was indeed the fix. However, within 10 minutes of hanging up the phone my MBP began to drop it's wireless connection to my new HP printer and also the Internet. Hence my question above is what I am really looking to have answered! What is the fix to this problem that so many people are having issues with? I couldn't afford to purchase Apple Care back in 2010 and I can't afford to purchase a new 2011 machine today if that truly is the fix!
I will be disabled for the remainder of my life and I have grown dependent upon my computer to stay in touch with friends and colleges from work. I worked for the IT Group at Wynn Resorts and I can say that the type of service Appple is providing it's customers is not what I learned over the past 25 years with Mr. Wynn. Why can't Apple get the simple concept that it's customers are it's life line and keeps them in business. I need help and I don't know what to do nor where to turn. It would be different if Apple acknowledged the issue and said they were working on it however they aren't. I plead to Apple to help me fix my notebook so I can stay connected to the outside world vs. couped up inside my home.
Best Regards,
Scott Leavitt

I am simply lookig for some help not an argument. I am not an RF specialist however have setup a few wireless networks in my tenure at Wynn Resorts. I fully agree that wireless networking is an art and a science however the powers that be in Network Land have toughted wireless networking is the easiest and quickest way to get two computers to talk with one another. As I previously said I have already turned one (1) MBP in for this problem and Apple decided to replace it because they could not fix the problem with my particular MBP. This MBP was running Leopard when the problems started
I am having a hard time believeing that there are several other devicces in my home that depend on a wireless network to operate and my MBP is the only one having an issue. I took this a step further and decided to see what would happen if I tried to connect wirelessly via Fusion. In Windows 7 I am able to print and scan to my hearts content without any issues. I am able to browse the internet as much as I want. I close Fusion and try to connect to my printer via wireless and nothing.
In order to get Apple to help do I need to get a Network Analyzer and capture packets when I have these problems? Out of the 1000 + posts is there a consolidation of which answer is the best? BTW I am accessing the internet via a wireless connection using Fusion and Windows 7.
In response to Linc's comments, I will look at the router specifications however I did not qualify that these devices are not using the wireless connection at the same time. Right now I would guess there are maybe two (2) or three (3) at the most that are actively transmitting / receiving information. -- Thanks

Linksys SRX 200 router wireless NOT working

I have Linksys SRX 200 WRT54GX2 wireless broadband router.
There are 5 computers that, as of yesterday... and months before.... were able to connect to the linksys SRX router. Today, only 1 computer (the one closest to the router) can detect the network but cannot connect, and the other 4 do not detect it at all.
The problem lies within the routers wireless function, as I am directly connected to the router via ethernet cable on one computer with no problem.
I've tried....
restarting the router, cable modem, etc.
repairing the network connection
restarting computers
unplugging all connections and waiting 5 minutes on router
Nothing has been brought in or added to my house that wasnt here yesterday when the wireless connections were working.
What do I do?

Hi….I would suggest you to change wireless settings on your router by entering the router setup page through internet explorer. Also change Advance wireless settings such as beacon interval to 75 and reduce RTS and Fragmentation Threshold by 40. If you still facing the same issue try upgrading the router firmware to the latest one, if it already has the latest firmware then re-flash the same firmware, > reset the router > power cycle and reconfigure the router. You can download the latest firmware from www.linksys.com/download

IPad 3 charging issues

I have had my shiny new iPad plugged in overnight with it's included iPad charger (it was displaying some context for some of that).
I have just woken up and it's only at 39%!!!! Now I know that it's meant to take longer to charge but that is unbelievable!?
As I said I'm using the lead and charger it came with, the only exception is I'm also using a usb extension lead inbetween as the plug is quite far away. I used the same lead with my iPad 2 every night and it charged fine and fast.
It also kept displaying not charging when plugged into my PC (which is definitely high powered ports).
Should I be booking a genius bar appointment do you think!?
Thanks!

This is a genuine issue and needs to be addressed.
Yesterday, launch day, I received a white AT&T 32GB 4G version, but I found the color distracting and AT&T lied to me and I got no signal at all where I live. I was actually able to take it to my local store midday and exchange it for a black Verizon model. The Verizon is screaming fast.
Anyway, they both have the same charging issues so this is a definite problem with all iPads, or the iPad chargers supplied. I believe Apple will have to send us all replacement chargers. While using my iPad, even plugged into the 10W charger and with the cellular data radio turned off, doing nothing more than typing on this very forum with all other apps closed, the battery drains at a rate of about 5% every half hour.... WITH THE CHARGER PLUGGED IN! The charger is active and the lightning bolt battery icon is up there. The iPad will only charge when the device is fully powered down. Even if it is in standby the unit will not charge when plugged in. This is either an OS bug that needs to be fixed or the charger supplied is not nearly adequate.
The iPad charger will charge my iPhone 4S rapidly, even when in use. It also charged my previous iPad 2 in a decent amount of time. But this 10W charger certainly does not charge the iPad while on, and the iPad certainly does not get 10 hours of use with or without the charger plugged in,
This is a serious issue and one that needs to be address promptly. Apple needs to send us all higher wattage chargers, issue an OS fix, or take care of whatever the problem is.
They also obviously didn't think the new iPad development through. The unit gets quite warm when in use and quite hot when the cellular is on. Also, the display does not get as bright as the iPhone 4S, and several people at the Apple Store agreed with me on all these issues.
Unless Apple wants to see a lot of returns and unhappy consumers, they need to fix this issue pronto. In the time it's taken me to type this post the power has gone down another 3%, with the charger plugged in and supposedly charging. Something is seriously wrong here.

Lumia 920 wireless charging not working after phon...

Long story short
Coulnd't hear anyone speaking on the phone if volume was turned up over 6 as internal earpiece distorts too badly (there is something loose inside the Lumia 920)
Got the phone back from Nokia care point in Cheltenham UK, earpiece fault not fixed.
Took it home, put it on the wireless charger - it now does not charge whereas it did perfectly before the trip to get 'fixed'
Nokia careport say 'Nothing to do with us, we'll have to send it back to Finland, which will take 3 weeks and you can't have a spare phone'
As a result, my confidence in Nokia is fading fast, won't be giving them any more chances to build a decent phone when this contract ends.

Sounds like the care point has broken it and are refusing to accept responsibility for their actions. Care points are independent and not directly run by Nokia.
I suggest you submit a complaint to Nokia UK on this link:

Lumia 920 Wireless Charging not working - Known is...

I have a Nokia Lumia 920, which works perfectly fine. I haven't had some of the other issues reported here with freezing, apps, etc.
I have a Nokia charging plate and I've found that no matter what I do the wireless charging plate absolutely does not work. I've turned off Bluetooth, Wifi, turned ON Battery Saver, disabled every background app, even hard reset my phone and tried charging it from stock. The wireless charging plate doesn't even maintain the current battery state - The battery slowly drains hour by hour. I've also tried placing the phone on the charging plate in different positions to ensure it's making good contact. Nothing works.
Is this a known issue? Is there anyway to identify a defective phone? Is there a possible fix for this? I love my Lumia, but this a killer feature I would expect to work consistently.

OK, this thread is odd. My charging plate works fine. It has a side with a little ring and Nokia in it, and the other side has an oval of rubber around the periphery with the usual conformance writing on it that side Qi, CE, don't throw it on the trash icon, Mine works just fine with the Oval down, and the Nokia in the ring up. Is that not what others see?
I can turn it over, but it is touchy as to whether I can get the light to come on. Usually not. I assumed, initially, the oval went down to keep it from sliding around on the table, and Nokia went up because they want you to know it's Nokia. Has always worked that way. I wish there was a larger rubber something on the 'top' as the phone can slide and spin more than I think it should.
For what it is worth, I much prefer the charge stand, but the plate is more convenient if I am going to travel somewhere for a while. Couple of days, just charger, week or so, might bring the plate for the hotel.
BTW, I do get the connect noise when putting it on the charge plate. Sometimes it can take a second otr two. When I take it off, it can take several seconds to get the disconnect noise and the charging icon to go away. If I put it back on the charger before the disconnect noise and the charge icon goes away, it does NOT make a connect noise, though the light comes on. The light will also eventually go off at full charge.
