It seems unlikely that there will be an official wireless charging back plate released any time soon given that the Quick Circle case is the only charging case advertised at the moment and not a whisper of an alternative on the usual rumour sites. It looks like those of us with the Korean version who want wireless charging are going to have to either wait for the eBay qi receivers to appear or modify the Quick Circle case (assuming you don't want a flap case) by stripping the coil off the case and sticking it onto the back of the existing plate. I did that with the Lumia 1020 wireless charging case and it was quite easy to do - and it worked!
However, $70+ for one of these cases is quite an expensive experiment if it fails....
Has any brave person tried it? Or cut off the flap? Or tried an S5 qi receiver instead?

but be careful. it's been reported that korean and international/us phones have different pin sizes and layouts.

Definitely, going to make sure what the US version has before ordering.
Hmm that's strange. So this is a case? Not just a replacement battery cover?
I would consider this but it doesn't even have the same nice texture that the original cover has. :/
Sorry, probably the wrong description. Not a case but a replacement battery cover. Though the one does have a built in rubber bumper, which makes it almost a case.

I was wondering.. Sinc the EU version will have a stock wireless charging.. Couldn't we just buy the back plate then? I am sure they'll be available?

The question would be if the pins would be any different as I have noted here actually: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2773653&page=2

Flip the phone over. The kickstand is spring loaded and will work either way.

A lot of kickstand phones are like this, photon, thunderbolt, some others. But with ours you can turn it over and the stand still works while charging.

Nah, then it would be more awkward to turn it and set it down in landscape if you're right-handed. And you can't move the charger port, the volume rocker is on the other side. And you can't put it on the bottom because . . . um . . . hmm.
Sux to be left handed on this phone, lol, but yeah, the kickstand holds in three positions...
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I am left handed and actually once you get used to it(the way MOST devices are and have always been for me) it isn't a big deal. It is awkward to have the capacitive touch buttons on the left side when in landscape tbh. I like it when they are accessible with my right hand.

I suspect the other reason the charging port is there is for the htc car dock and whatever future desk docks they make.
In case someone else ever stumbles upon this thread and doesn't understand what we mean by 'flip it upside down':

Come across this case and beyond my sense if it's a wired design,armed with a tpu cover inside and a metal bumper external, esp. the curve makes the Galaxy Note 3 seems like a big iPhone as you could see here:

IKR. Besides why would you want the awesome phone to look like an iPhone. Anyone who isn't blind or gone full retard should be able to tell by size it isn't an iPhone. Besides what's up with that gaping hole in back.

Hey the Note 3 is a sexy modern device lets say we make it look like something out of Logan's run so it can be not sexy and pseudo modern. We can get Andy Warhol to design it.
Have yet to see an attractive bumper. This is one is the worst of all by far.

Hey guys,
Just came across this beautiful device: Sony Magnetic Charging Pad BSC10
It's a magnetic charging dock, but with speakers on the front and sides. Apparently it's Bluetooth capable, and can be used for calls as well.

The Sony SRS BTM8 speaker doesn't have a built in battery, it uses 4 AA batteries. It can be plugged into the wall though.

This fell into my lap during frist time assembly. Can anyone give me a pointer?
It has fallen off the slot where the charger plugs in. It sits on the back part of the case and helps it's quite self evident how it fits due to the curve. My one did exactly the same

Can it go back once it comes out or do you throw it away?

I hate when i buy something new and something falls off... sadly, i usually throw it away too after a very small amount trying to identify the piece.
You'd think it would as there's only one version of the quick circle case. However the backs of the two of them don't seem the same - the wireless nodes seem too far apart on the international compared to Korean models.

Nope, it would NEVER work. LG made the ports DIFFERENT!
Even if the Korean version didn't have the antenna, the wireless charging adapter still wouldn't fit. They made the ports in different locations on the European and Korean version. I found a picture to prove it, see hidden picture below...
