QI charging with s-View, when case is open?

Hi,

I've currently got this in my car:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00FEAGUL4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

..along with this QI charging case:

Official Samsung Galaxy S5 S View Wireless Charging Cover - Black

The phone charges up fine while the case is closed... as as soon as you "flick" the front of the case around to the back, and put into the holder (i.e when you are using a satnav, for example),.... then it refuses to charge!

Anyone got any suggestions? Its doing my nut in that I spent

Yeah - it sucks. I have the same problem with my home QI charger. If I have the case closed / open (but not folder back on itself), it charges ok. As soon as I fold it back, the damn thing won't charge. The big bugger, is that I can't even put the power cable in to charge on this using, as the bottom support goes right over the usb slot. Eugh :/

OK - so looks like this is my only option:

Basically, take both cases with me - but then put this one on when I wanna use the satnav / anything else with the cover folder back on). Bit crap, but I guess its better than nothing.
