@yjeanrenaud Simply by soldering iron .. leaving silver tin.

Ok, I make own.
Bought this on eBay.
Polarity is easy exchanged by shift power strip (on naked receiver).
No need to make crossing as made @Wonko.
The spacing between contacts is reduced by cut with scissors.
When charger pad is powered by standard Jolla 1A power adapter, phone is charged by 550-600mA in good position on charger pad.
But on charger pad is info: Input 5V 2A, Output 5V 1A ..
And result in more images.
So to shift the polarity (by looking at your pictures):
1. Somehow tear apart the receiver so that the strip is nakes.
2. Desolder it
3. move strip one step closer to the edge of the main "board" part so that the strip connects to the two contacts closest to the edge.
4. Resolder it
Is this correct?
How did you fix it to the TOH? double sided tape or glue?

Thanks for the hellp Kaacz!
I resoldered one for my wife and one for me. It works! charging @~4.6V Even though the receiver looked the same as yours, the reversed polarity solder points were not located like on your pictures, but it was just as easy.
The connection of the stripe to the jolla pogo pins feels a little half-assed.
Aren't there any kind of connectors to buy that match the jolla pogo pins.? Soldering such on to the strip and connect them would be perfect.
anyone know where to buy some kind of connectors or components that would fit the jolla pins?
EDIT: It gets hot as hell after a while. Normal?

Many thanks to Bundyo and Wonko earlier in this thread - I now have a touchstone-based charger working with my Jolla.
Featuring one sticker carefully peeled from a Pre back cover, some "Slug and Snail Repellent" sticky copper tape, a craft knife, a bad soldering job, and a little bit of foam from the Pre case under where the pogo pins are. Done. Although the back cover now bulges slightly. Never mind eh.

Yep, a bulge for a charge, I don't mind

Since I won't be making them anymore, too busy with TOHKBD2 and other products:
Qi charging pad
This one does up to 1000ma, which is the most your Jolla will accept.
TOH stl file
This one will work with regular at-home 3D printer. You may have to adjust for you own model and material. Printing this one via shapeways will result in a non-fitting part.

can be ordered at rs-online.com / farnell (be aware that the older rather thick coils are also available but might not fit a phone I hit the search with the first digits of the WE productcode)
