Hello guys, don't know, if its been alredy discussed here...
It is possible to use the +5V and -GND Pins for Inductive charging pad, if they are alredy connected to the TOHKBD Bottom Circuit ?
In other words, can i solder 2 wires to this pins, if they will be alredy used for TOHKBD ?
THanks
If you want to however make a different disconnectable part with qi charging in it yourself, yes that is possible.

Contact pads are here! Just waiting for assembly tool to be made.
New PCBs and casings
Assembly of mockup
This PCB and casing fit like a glove, so for now I will assume this is the final design. I have to wait however on the first actual keypads and domesheets to confirm everthing.

Something I might have a play with once my TOHKBD arrives...

As a Motorola droid (3) owner I know Motorola had all kinds of docking stations and matching phone profiles for the different docking stations. Sort of like what the Jolla has a other halves.
Put the phone in your night stand dock and it will charge and show a dim alarm clock, put it in you car dock and it will launch the satnav.
I doubt anybody changes their other half when they go to bed or go driving. It should have been something easy with magnets
I'm looking forward to building a magnetic docking station connecting to the six contact pads. although I am told charging the phone won't be possible.

I've tried searching the thread, so I hope this question hasn't already been answered,
Will it be possible/probable to have keyboard shotcuts for swiping/OS maneuvers? Like Ctrl + -> = Swipe right, and Alt + Tab = go to application window?

The Alt-Tab = go to homescreen is in same category. I have studied few different possibilities to implement it, but nothing solid yet.
