Lumia 822 wireless charging: really misleading, No...

Quite annoyed by this:
If you look under Lumia 822 specifications, they say this:
http://www.nokia.com/us-en/products/phone/lumia822/specifications/
(Under Hardware):
Wireless connectivity
Bluetooth 3.0
Near Field Communication
Wi-Fi Channel bonding
WLAN IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n
Qi Wireless charging
However, as it turns out, 822 also requires a wireless charging shell? For the 820, at least you see that as a listed option under Accessories, but for the 822, it is not there?
I dunno - seems wrong to me; why not have a "*" is there is a footnote needed that wireless charging shell is needed? I guess I'll keep the dual wireless charger I bought for the future with the hope that shells will become available and will not cost too much?

@slaverenz- read the user guide: http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/pdf_guides/devices/822/Nokia_Lumia_822_UG_en.pdf
Page 16.
In order to charge wirelessly, NFC must be enabled. I talked to Nokia support on the phone. NFC is necessary to connect the phone to the secondary device, whether it be a charging plate or headset, etc. When one goes to the settings and turns on NFC, only NFC sharing is enabled. When the shell that has not been released becomes available, it contains an NFC contact point (square) that must touch with another device to activate (the center of the charging plate for example. The phone does not charge via NFC, but connects wirelessly to the charging plate through it.

Lumia 920 Wireless Charging Plate...where do i get...

Hi,
Just traded my iPhone 5 (Had every single iPhone since the Original) for the Nokia Lumia 920.
I got it from Best Buy and I must say Im really impressed with the Lumia 920.
Still learning the features on my new phone but im liking it so far.
My question is where do i sign up to get the free Wireless charger?

I believe the free wireless charger was only available from some network carriers only and not universally across the U.S. or other countries and territories. If you are unable to find a retailer of the charging plates, you can click the Nokia Support link at the bottom of this page to chat online with a Nokia representative directly, who will be able to point you in the right direction.

Is the Lumia 820 wireless charging cover compatibl...

Hello,
I have just bought this induction charging base in Amazon Germany. I had purchased the Nokia charging cover for my Lumia 820 already last month. But now that I lay down my phone on the base nothing happens. I thought that induction charging couldn't really be a proprietary standard (I mean, it's just basic physics after all!) but now I'm wondering if somehow the Nokia covers are not compatible with other brands of chargers? I'd find that hard to believe...
Has anybody used the wireless charging feature with other brands of chargers? Could there be some option that I need to turn on in my phone that I don't know of?
PS: I also contacted just now the charging base's manufacturer to see if they know of any compatibility issues

The cover is compatible with all wireless chargers that use the Qi Standard. It will not work with wireless chargers that use other standards, for example the old "powermat" chargers.
More about Qi here: http://www.wirelesspowerconsortium.com/what-we-do/qi/
The one on your link doesn't mention any standards so itt's either like the powermats or proprietary.

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.

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.

Lumia 1520 Wireless charger

I just purchased the Lumia 1520 from AT&T. I also bought the Incipio wireless charge cover. for some reason, when I pair this up with my Nokia DT 910 wireless charger, the charger does not recognize my device 9and thus won't charge). It does charge my Lumia 925 without any issue. Does anyone have any insight as to why my 1520 isn't charging on the charger stand?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
The specifications of the AT&T-variant Lumia 1520 are different from standard, it requires a PMA-compatibile wireless charger, not Qi.
Customers with the AT&T-variant model require the PMA charging cover which is provided by AT&T, not by Nokia. Lumia 1520s offered elsewhere in the world have Qi wireless charging built in.

Lumia 820 wireless charging question

Hi! I've recently bought a Lumia 820, which I'm loving by the way, and I've noticed wireless charging doesn't work as it should. The battery doesn't seem to charge, although the phone and the charging pad do indicate it's charging. I've also noticed that one of the connector pins on the backside of the phone doesn't spring back when pushed, instead it sits very deeply within its casing, as you can see on the picture. I'm thinking these two things have something to do with each other. Can someone please shed some more light on this subject? Thanks!

It would appear so that this is the cause,just checked mine and all 4 pins are up,return device to point of purchase or a nokia care point,if that pin does not pop up try pushing on it gently and see.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

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.

In general competition winners are contacted personally and you should find the exact way this is done in the competition terms & conditions. Posting to Nokia Support Discussions would not provide you an answer as these are a user to user support platform.

822 No Grey Wireless Charging Cover, only Black an...

Love my Grey Lumia 822. Was a little disappointed that the Wireless Charging Cover (which did not come with my phone), allows the device to use the Qi wireless charging pads only come in Black and White. I got black, and now my phone is two-toned. It is still a sharp looking phone, but would really like to have a Wireless Charging Cover in Grey.
Just a word of warning to any of you out there who have the grey phone.

Where did you buy it? I'm dissapointed, I was told before I bought the plate that the HTC and the nokia 822 both had the back included, and now my charging pad doesn't work. I can't find where to buy the dang thing. It sucks that they aren't clear about it. I guess they did trick me into buying it

Nokia Lumia Icon + DT900 wireless charging problem

I bought a Nokia Lumia Icon which had a defected SIM card tray. I replaced the daughter engine board where the SIM card tray is located without charging the phone first (the battery was completely empty) and now when I'm trying to charge the phone wirelessly with DT900, it just doesn't work. So I don't know whether it worked (or not) before my fixing procedure.
DT900 works with my wife's Lumia 1020 and my Lumia 928 so there's nothing wrong with it.
So all you technical gurus over here:
1) how does the wireless charging work with Lumia Icon/930? I.e. does anyone have any wiring diagrams for Lumia Icon/930? There are two pins on the main board but where do they go? I didn't detach the main board, only the engine cover assembly and the battery in order to replace the daughter engine board where the SIM card tray is. So does the engine cover assembly have anything to do with the wireless charging (I don't think so) or do those pins go straight to the battery?
2) does anyone know whether this is a common problem among Lumia Icon / 930 phones? A type fault or a serie of phones with defective rear cover and its wireless charging assembly?
I'd really appreciate if someone could help me. Thanks a lot in advance!

I can understand that when a manufacturer provides a free user forum they do not appreciate information posted which may cause problems and then be held responsible for the damages as it is an 'official' resource provided by the manufacturer.
I'd suggest you lookup the meaning of censorship which this most definately is not.

Wireless Charging for Lumia 635 is it compatible o...

At the microsoft store online I found a Wireless charging stand that says it is compatible with the Lumia 635.
So, clicked on the chat function to ask if that was true and was told that she did not know the answer to my question and then gave me a link to some tech answers person who also had no answers. How difficult should it be to find out if my device supports Qi wireless charging? It says that my device is compatible but I don't always believe what I read especially when it comes to spending $70. Really disappointed that I wasted so much time talking to people who could not answer a simple question, does my device support Qi wireless charging and if so how would I know? Is it available for the AT&T version? If is not why do they list it as a compatible device? So far my experience has been pleasant with my windows phone and non-existent with windows phone support. Couldn't even find an email address to write to get answers or to complain about their (Non) Tech Support.
Put it down, charge it upWith this wireless charging stand (DT-910), there's no need to plug anything in—simply place your Nokia Lumia on it to start charging. The multifunctional stand can activate a pre-specified application on your phone via near field communication (NFC), and you can use your phone in portrait mode while it charges.
Compatible with:
Any phone that supports Qi wireless charging
Nokia Lumia 635 Is it Qi compatible or not?
Nokia Lumia Icon
Nokia Lumia 928
Nokia Lumia 920
Nokia Lumia 1020 (requires CC-3066 Wireless Charging Cover)
Nokia Lumia 925 (requires CC-3065 Wireless Charging Cover)
Nokia Lumia 820 (requires CC-3041 Wireless Charging Shell)

Regretfully the 635 does not support wireless charging of any type.

Nokia lumia 1520 with Nokia Wireless Charging Plat...

I brought a nokia lumia 1520 and a wireless charger from AT&T. I tried to charge my phone when it had almost no power in it. But the white light kept blinking while I put my phone on it. And I'm sure that no other device between the two objects. Does anybody know what is going on with it?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The AT&T 1520 does not have Q1 wireless charging. This is what the DT-900 is.
It has PMA wireless charging. AT&T had Nokia change the wireless chang platform to PMA, which is different than other Nokia phones.
Complain to AT&T ! I did.

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!
JenksNo1

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.
