Wirless charging e class 2017 problems

After turning the NFC on my HTC M8 and placing it on the place were it is supposed to be, the phone didn't charge. The phone was not connected before to the car. Any suggestions?

HTC M8 doesn't support wireless charging that I can find. Just because a phone has NFC doesn't mean it supports wireless charging. The Samsung galaxy s5 supports it through Qi-Enabled pads.

seems like wireless charging was available on several phones a few years ago but now it seems a select few of new phones (mostly Samsung) still come with that feature. Nexus dropped it. Apple never had it. From what I've read it didn't really take off and also added thickness and weight as well as limited the material used on the back of the phone due to possible interfere.

We have 3 devices with wireless built in and it's great around the house to set your phone down without having to plug it in. But it's not useful when you need to use your phone while it is charging. In a car where you may be using your phone continuously for navigation (waze) or picking it up occasionally for music selection, etc. (not texting), or when you're stopped at a light finally checking your texts - it seems having it plugged in the old fashioned way seems more effective (and faster charge rate anyway).

Wireless charging

Samsung Note 5, not the 7 that goes on fire. Works intermittently. Sometime works fine but most of the time charging goes on then off then on etc. Another disappointment.
