Anyone’s phone getting really hot when wireless charging? Mine actually shut down with the over heat message yesterday.

iPhone 12 Pro with genuine apple MagSafe case. Works fine on all other wireless chargers. MY23 PHEV HSE

On the US forum (https://www.rangerovers.net/threads/wirele...st-2395640) they've reported similar issues. Might be related with using Apple Carplay while charging?

Interesting thanks

I wasn’t using car play yesterday when it over heated plus my phone doesnt overheat when using wireless charging and CarPlay in the other cars.

I’ve added it to my snag list for the dealer. MY23 PHEV HSE

My IPhone has been overheating occasionally as well. But not due to wireless charging as (afraid to admit it) my phone is too old for this technology. Pretty sure it’s something to do with Apple Car Play which I disable now. That also saves data as doesn’t default to Google Maps when there’s a perfectly good navigation system on board.

I'm expecting my L460 in a little over a month, and I have a question: can you disable the wireless charging feature on the L460? If not, can the charging element be removed?

I like the idea of my phone sitting on the hidden shelf where wireless charging happens, but I prefer cable connections when available.

Thanks!

I haven’t seen an option to disable it. I am using wired to that location now. there is a tunnel to the other compartment you can thread cables from which is much neater than using the connector there. I’m just placing my phone upside down to avoid wireless charging. MY23 PHEV HSE

Thank you for the answer!

I'll have a buddy of mine check mine out when I get the car to determine if it's possible to physically disconnect it from its power supply.

FYI, if you're an iPhone user, you can leave your phone on the charging pad, even if it's already charging via cable. Apple devices have intelligent charging and will use whichever power source was first connected and will ignore the secondary charger.

Thus, if you charge via cable, the iPhone won't activate its internal wireless charging pad and vice-versa.

No clue as to how it works on an Android phone, but iPhone users can use either charging option safely.
