Japanese SGS3 Variant missing wireless charging pins.

Got this surprise after I ordered the Touchstone kit. I am kind of bummed.
Think it was to make room for the 1seg antenna on the top left side.

those are usually diagnostic pins not wireless charging

Dr. You are usually right about the pins but not in our case. We gave two exposed pins that ha vCard e been proven to be for wireless charging battery cover. The antennae test pins are covered on the steering us variant

Wireless charging.

I've been searching online for an answer to this and I'm still not sure if the wireless charging comes built in or will I have to buy the wireless charging pad like on the S3.
Does anyone know?

Yes you need to buy a different back panel for wireless charging. It looks exactly the same on the outside but on the inside it has the hardware for wireless charging. It also makes your phone a couple of grams heavier

How does this work with the flip cases that attach as a new back to the phone? Surely I don't need to buy a wireless charging flip case?

I hope they we could just add this, and not have to buy a back cover.

Charging Cable Pins

Hi. Can someone look at the usb cable that came with the galaxy s4 (the end the connects to the galaxy s4) and see if all the gold pins are there? I notice that I have one line of pin missing from inside the cable. I wonder if it was like that or my was damage somehow. Thanks.

Seems to be all there for me

You can ask the seller if they'd separate the set... Worse they can say is no

It's looks like an app called Drupe

It looks like a cluster of dead pixels or a screen not assembled properly , check with your cellular provider for a replacement phone. It is considered a manufacturer defect in many cases.
