Note 8 Charge Issue

[lupi]

Anyone have problem with wireless charging on theirs?

For the first couple days I had it, did not notice any issues but since I am getting several failures when placing it on the charger (charge goes from in progress to interrupted with blinking blue light). I've noticed with the vertical charger placing it on the side so far has never run into this problem and on the flat pad I have to move it around a bit until it maintains connection.

What charger? I have some cheap samsung wifi charger that works with all my wireless charging devices but you have to put the device exactly in a specific spot on it. Works great though and cost like 12 bucks a couple of years ago. Model is EP-PG920I

Samsung fast chargers.

No problems here with my Note 8 and two Samsung fast chargers. (Wife and I have both models, the one adjusts from flat to stand and the fixed stand model she uses with her iphone8.)

Long as the n8 is centered on the pad veritcally it never fails to connect and charge.

Also several cheap charging pads/stands at home and work it charges with minimal fiddling... long as its logically centered on the pads it charges.

Did you add anything to your phone that may have altered the charging like a heavy case?

I have a vinyl skin on the back of my n8 but no charge issues.

Mine works fine and I use a case. Of course placement is always a pain which is why I used a stand charger like the
Seneo charger.

Have a spigen tough armor, but after noticing it I stripped it out of the case and still noticed it happening. Both chargers are samsung fast chargers bought from bestbuy.

I've seen a couple support forum post of similar reports, and a couple mention it occurring after an update late last year. In the limited time I've had mine I've gotten at least 3 separate updates, assuming those are similar to those pushed out since release, unless they actually compile cumulative updates.

mine is fine on the two chargers I have, even with a case. Placement isn't even THAT particular, even slightly askew placement and it charges.
