I dropped my Galaxy S4 in water and now it won't recognize any charger that goes into the USB port. Will this work if the USB port doesnt work at all?

Yes it should. The wireless antenna mount's under the rear cover. Has nothing to do with the USB port. Keep in mind that the water nay have done more damage than he USB port.
789797
Yes. That is what happened to my wife's phone and that is why we bought the wireless charger.

It very well may, the wireless pack connects directly to the back of 2 prongs in your phone. Probably would not hurt to try over claiming on your insurance.

there is a chance it will work. However, if something's not working after being exposed to water and sounds like a new phone is in your future.

The wireless charger doesn't have anything to do with the USB port. The adapter connects inside the phone, so it should work even if the USB is toast.

So I have the s4 and it wont charge my phone. It might be my phone but it charges an iphone fine. So I would say give it a try, if it works it is really handy.

I don't have a Galaxy S4 Phone , But If I Did I Would Think that It Would Work, Put In The Search Bar Galaxy S4 Phone Changer And See If This charger comes up.

Your charger may be damaged or the phone itself maybe damaged also make sure it is the correct battery for your phone. I had a battery that was not charging but it turned out my charger was bad.

That happened to me once. I think perhaps the battery wasn't fully pushed into the charger. I can't speak with certainty to your case, but could that be a possibility? I would try charging it again on the charger and see if it works. if not, contact the seller. I love my charger, and only had a problem the one time. The USB port on my phone has since ceased to work, so I am really glad that I got the charge - it is now a necessity! It has worked perfectly except one time, and I think that the battery wasn't fully pushed into the charger then.

Yes, of course. The Galaxy S4 uses a Micro USB 2.0 jack to charge (and transfer data). This is a Micro USB 2.0 cable.

Hi, As I read in many post in the web, I found that problem could be the same with the charge port for many reasons ... I would say that maybe would work for you case but I cannot complety sure it. I hope this help to you ...

This charger uses the charging port to work so if your port is broken you need to mend it first. Hope this helps

Best thing you could ever do is make sure you have original Samsung Galaxy s3Mini battery. The ACTUAL battery-not "compatable", not " replacement for", etc., no imitations! Four pin connector BEST. I'm having trouble with my S4 battery, because of "compatable" battery charger designed for s3. Use original parts always!

I'm guessing that the reason the manufacturer didn't answer this question is that the only way this can work is if you remove that USB cover. Which would mean that the S5 is no longer water resistant.I believe a better solution is the Samsung replacement battery cover with the wireless charging built in - that retains the water resistance. The only problem with that solution is that no one seems to have found a bumper skin that fits the S5 with that (slightly thicker) battery cover.

Yes it charges the S4 just as well as the S3. I've tested both for over 2 months now and haven't had any issues. Hope this helps!

Just plug in any similar shaped charger. Don't buy a new one. try galaxy s series charger.

The USB port is loose/damaged and prevents the case from charging the phone. In order to charge the phone you have to hold the charger or finagle the case & charger to get it to work.

I haven't tried to take it into water. Just keeping me from drowning the phone at work. I believe the s3 and s4 are the same size , it is more an issue of where are all the ports and accessories located. If they are not the same on both phones then it will interfere with your phone.

I do not know about your particular phone's charging issues, but with my Samsung Galaxy s3 I learned that the problem (and apparently a common one with Samsung phones) is that the USB recharging port has poor quality soldering. I've ultimately found that a better solution than USB charging or even using the Lerway wireless Qi "drop-pad charger" is to use multiple batteries with wall charging units. I believe I've written a review for such a product - it was around $20 for the charging unit and 2 spare batteries. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE how fast and efficient wall chargers/spare batteries are. I know have 7 spare batteries so I can keep several at home, a few in my office, a few in the car, etc. I can pop out a discharged battery and replace it with a fully charged on in about 15 seconds. Forget USB and drop-pad chargers.

This charger works with my Samsung Galaxy 3 so it will work with your S4. Also, there is a USB port so you could you that for charging iphones. This item usually provides my phone with 85-100% power. This is the third portable charger I have purchased and it works the best. This has been a lifesaver on numerous occasion - just remember to recharge it.

I bought it for an S4...it worked fine but stopped charging after 30 days so I returned it.
