Hi there.
I am an old Palm Pre user, and bought a Galaxy S3 SPECIFICALLY because you could hack it with wireless charging using the Palm Touchstone. I have a bunch of touchstones all over the house in my car, and didn't want to give this awesome feature up.
However, upon purchasing the phone with an optional wireless charging back cover, the phone WILL NOT charge with the wireless charing back cover.
Heres the fun part: i tried the same wireless charging back cover on my friends Galaxy S3 and it works great.
My S3 is refurbished, and to be honest I was a bit confused as the phone came with a very basic version of Android. There were no apps installed, I even had to download the Google Maps and Google Voice Activation. I assumed that came standard.
Of course, I buy a refurbished phone and the ONE...ONE thing that doesnt work is the one thing I bought it for. Le Sigh....
Can anyone offer any tips, help before I return this thing, If they will let me return it.
Maybe I am just not realizing I need to change a setting on the phone or something.
