My charging port wore out, is being replaced; I want to use a qi wireless charger from now on. Will a qi charge through the case? Recommendations?

I am not sure how the qi wireless charger works. if it is like the charge cable, thin and sticks out, it probably should work, but if the adapter is too big, the material from the case may keep it from making a good contact.

I don't know about the QI charging, but I know that battery case stop charging after a few days of using it. The problem is the charging connector inside the case is poorly design. I try couple more cables, none of them are working. I jerk the cable around then I got it to charge, then it stop charging when I move Nexus 5 around. I know right away that the connector is bad or poorly design.

I put my Nexus 4 inside the case and it was able to charge wirelessly... in fact, the case I use on my Nexus 4 is thicker than this one and I've never run into issues with wireless charging.

Yes- does not interfere with wireless charging on either of my charging units. (I have the Nexus Orb and a PowerQi charger) Its a great case for the money- I actually have 2 I liked the first one so much!

It does for me. I have a Qi charger and it works amazing. Got that charger on here too.

Possibly...it depends on how damaged your charging port is. If you have tried a new battery(that has been tested to work in a different phone) and different charging cables (that are known to work on other phones) and the battery still will not charge (or will not charge fully, or intermittently charges) then this item may not help. This particular unit seems to operate via the cover charging port locking into the original charging port. If the charging port is completely non-functioning it is likely you will not be able to use this type of wireless charger. In that case, I would look at the small sticker-like wireless charging receivers that can be directly attached to the back of the actual battery instead of an incorporated special back case. If your charging port is toast, you need to bypass that functionality and charge straight from a wireless unit to the battery itself.

I'm not sure about the wireless charger, but the case is super thin and flexible. Light can pass through it

I use the Anker Qi wireless charger with this cover on my phone with no problem. I do not take the phone out, I leave it snapped into place.

I do not own the wireless charger, so I cannot answer this question at this time, but I will read the directions that came with the case and get back to you. sorry I could not answer your question.

Don't get it man. It will stop working in one of many ways, you'll Fix it then something else will go wrong. Then you'll just toss it in a drawer and forget about it. Go with a real QI charger if your phone supports it otherwise get a QI compatible phone.

I don't use a wireless charger so I don't know. I love this case for my Nexus 7 2nd Gen. Sorry I couldn't help.

The wireless charging, assuming you have the correct Qi charging standard, should work. The charging however does require you to place the electronic in the center (on top of the symbol) and in a straight position. You might just need to move the electronic device around to find the position that works for you. If not you may need to contact the seller.

I have GS5 - works great - phone gets hot, but never a prob. you need an internal BestFire® Ultra-thin QI Wireless Charging Charger Receiver For Samsung (S5). its available on amazon - just do a search. that's about $14 more, but worth it. Also - it fits inside WITHOUT any other backs. tight but fits. get it - you'll not regret it. love wireless charging.

My wife is using this with an iClever IC-WQ11 Qi charger and it works fine, even with a case. Any standard Qi charger should be okay, no need to pay extra for a Samsung branded item.

It will charge throught the cover and if you put a protective case on your phone it will charge through it also. Qi charging is the only way to go as you have to flip the waterproof charging cover open every time you charge the s5

Unknown. I do not have a wireless charger. The male-female USB 3.0 works phenomenal for me and charges very quickly. Good luck.

I found that with my Samsung Galaxy S3 that when the charging port is damaged, I was unable to completely charge the phone. I also purchased a new OEM replacement battery to see if that would help and it did not. If the charging port is damaged/failing this wireless charging unit may only serve to charge your phone until it completely gives out. Of course, as long as you get a phone with the same charging port as on the portable unit (i.e. Samsung or iPhone) you can still use the portable charger on whatever phone you end up getting. It "should" buy some time.
