Wireless Charging on Moto X

[Jaingo5150]

Is there a good method for this? I have only been able to find one hideous case from incipio to help facilitate wireless charging for the MX.

Thanks in advance, and sorry if I missed a hella old post.

I loved my Touchstone for my old Prē . Some adventurous hackers were able to transplant the coils and magnets from a Prē to a Galaxy S 3 and wired it. If one were to remove the adhesive pad in the back in the Moto X case, there may be room to do the same. Then again the curved back of the X may not allow a good fit and contact to it.

It would be a fantastic option back in the motomaker.

I hear these work fairly well and you can use it with the case of your choice though you'll probably want one that is not transparent. On my wifes Maxx I found that its a little tough to line up the charging spot using and Otterbox. Thinner is apparently better.

Motorola Moto X Teardown - iFixit

According to iFixit.com, there is already inductive charging coil in the back of the phone. Did they make an assumption that what it was and not consider it was the NFC antenna? This is something we should get some clarification about.


*** update ****

It looks like it is the NFC coils and not for charging
