Hello,
I thought I'd start a thread for when people find a wireless charging backplate that works with the Verizon G3.
I really hope they just make life easy and sell an identical sized wireless backplate so we can use whatever case we want. They really blew it.. But to be honest if I have the spare battery and external charger it's probably easier to just pop a fresh battery in when needed and the wireless is kind of unnecessary.
This isn't really in the right section.
I ordered the gold back that many AT&T owners bought on Monday. I'll let people know if it works. It doesn't say it's shipped yet, but he left feedback the day I bought it so I assume he just doesn't label it shipped like some other sellers. It's going from California to Virginia so I probably won't have it until Monday.

as I posted in the wireless charging thread;
LG makes a slim case backing that supports wireless charging. It is a case / replaces the back panel. It is on their site and shown as a pre order on some websites such as mobilefun.
new member, cant post links, sorry.
I posted in the main g3 thread, and figured I'd post here as well. Verizon now has the quick circle folio case with qi charging on the main site. It isn't on the business site, but they were able to take my order over the phone no problem.

Good to know it is indeed qi. There were a couple rumors that it was possibly powermat. Most people didn't think that, but it's nice to have confirmation.

AT&T doesnt use Qi, so this wouldnt work for VZW users. AT&T uses powermat.
I only get a 15% disc on the folio case from vzw.com so it would be $47.69 with tax .. do y'all think its worth that?

Yes but before people realized this, they bought a qi international edition back on ebay. It's never been confirmed that they work and aren't fake somehow because no one without an AT&T version has tried it. It's qi, not powermat.

You probably have selected the wrong case if your looking for the qi version, if you want the charging version it is $59.99 base. with 15% off pre tax it should be $51.00

Ill wait for the other stuff that the S3/4/5 have - 20 dollar add on thing that goes in the back.
What about the European version? Hope we can just purchase a back for the European version somewhere as I believe it comes with QI charging built in.

I was considering doing the same, but I'd hate to put out the cash and it not work. I mean Qi is just one part of the equation, are the pins in the same spot?
I have the Verizon case in my shopping cart but I don't really want the circle case and I'm still looking for instructions for how to "transplant" the wireless charging bits to the stock Verizon back.

That may not be released. Wouldn't make much sense to make a custom wireless charging adapter for a phone that already supports wireless charging. The backs on ebay probably will go down eventually. I got mine for $30 but it's gone up since then.

And why there is no wireless charging out of box Even if VZW just get a 10% attach rate, it would be $3,000,000 in revenue if VZW sold 500,000 G3's. That would be about $2,500,000 of pure profit (that is after product, box and shipping/handling costs).
Took a look at the Verizon LG G3's today. They do not have 4 connectors, only 2 that I assume is NFC. It did appear to have 2 coils on the back cover but I could easily be mistaken. Here are a few pics of the insides of the Verizon G3:

I honestly hate the design (and price) of the Quick Circle, but love Qi charging. Any chance we'll have any other (cheaper) alternatives, or will the best option be to buy the QC case and cut off the cover panel if you dislike it?
I've bought the quick circle case and plan to take out the Qi charging (&NFC) out of the quick circle case and stick inside the stock cover in place of the NFC only sticker.
Are they just stickers? Might do the same myself...

Well I ripped the coil and wireless charging 4 node things from the quick circle case and put them in my 400k and now I have wireless charging! Pretty painless and I am a bit of a bull in the China shop but all good and working.
The backing already is on ebay. The ones that have the QI charging have "NFC" in the item's title. Just make sure not to get F400 version which ha the pins lined up differently. Also, it seeems that the Verizon versions have a slightly different coloring so you'll have to take it out of the circle case for those.
Yes but these backs are slightly thicker than the normal backs. And have faux leather back. Depends what you like.

I've been trying to find a Euro case for a week now. Nothing available yet. I'm willing to bet we'll see a quickcircle case for another carrier with QI before I find a European back.

I wanted to start a thread where people could post cases/backs that work on the US variants of the phone to provide Qi/Powermat charging. I am sure there are a lot of people confused by the different options.
Powermat
AT&T Black Quick Circle Case
Qi
Powermat =/= QI charging.
It should probably be noted that the AT&T version doesn't work with the QI backs. I believe it has been confirmed that their powermat circle case works with other versions though.

This is good news if true, it would suggest that the AT&T model not accepting Qi backs is a software limitation, not a hardware one. Would you mind pointing me to the thread/post that confirms this? I've been following most of the XDA threads that are discussing this, but I didn't see anyone mention that the PMA AT&T works on non-AT&T models.
Thanks!

I don't think there's much of a difference by standard. You'll just have to look at reviews of individual chargers. I bought this one which had good reviews. Apparently only the black circular ones with the black, red, or blue lining are true powerbots and the rest are fakes and much slower to charge though, according to one review. I've never had a device with wireless charging so I don't know much about it except for how the technology works in general.

It's only the AT&T models. AT&T has a contract with duracell so they'll only sell powermat capable phones.
Browsing around, I haven't found anyone with Qi charging as of yet for US. Seems Version and Sprint for now anyways just have a snap on case instead of removing the back of the G3 so no wireless charging functionality.
AT&T has PMA. Not sure what T-mobile will have, even the LG reps in one of the t-mobile stores where clueless.
I tried wireless Qi charging with my Nexus 7, it sucked as it was ridiculously slow. I returned it that model which was manufactured by Nokia. So I may just get the snap on case for the LG G3 instead anyways and live with quick circle functions.
Hopefully the Quick Circle case from AT&T will work. It sucks having to switch over to Powermat, but at least it is a working solution.
Just took a look on ebay and the same seller that a lot of others have bought these from for $40 or more just dropped the price to $22.94 each. Just ordered 2 and it says they'll deliver by Friday with the free shipping.

Typically, they're all the same. With the one you posted, its all plastic shell which gives more real estate for the phone to rest on. Inside is just a coil and PCB board. I think there is a YouTube video of someone opening one of these up.
I opted for a smaller profile (I purchased similar for $1 more). I'll be ordering from this one soon - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Qi-Wireless...l_Phone_PDA_Chargers&var=&hash=item2ed4c6f705. And it ships from the US. No long wait time.

Good point. I just received my "hockey puck". Just in time for me to test out the Qi stickers.
Could of gotten in on my group buy for the stickers. I ordered 100 and should have it next week. Sold out of all of them in a day and they should be mailed out to everyone late next week.
Seems there is still demand for them so I'm about to place another order for 100. BTW, I've been in constant contact with the manufacturer..they've been sold out so it will take some time. But since I'm ordering so much, they'll be able to accommodate my order quicker.
Yeah I saw I missed out, that's ok, I can wait. It didn't say when I was ordering that they were sold out.

Yea, it doesn't say when you order. One thing I don't like is that it takes 1 day to process payment verification, 5 days to process order and another 15-26 days to ship. Luckily with this group buy, no one has to wait that long.
But if you do get that Qi charger, definitely let us know. Great price but to me, its just too big.

But if you do get that Qi charger, definitely let us know. Great price but to me, its just too big.

I ended up ordering that first one I linked to so I'll report back once I get everything (lol ETA between Aug 15 - Sept 28).
I use the TYLT Vu at work and a Nokia DT-900 at the house... Both work very well
New, stronger, more expensive Qi chargers are coming out this fall: http://www.androidauthority.com/qi-wireless-v1-2-improves-412408/
I've seen the articles but no solid evidence. Will LG produce a wireless charging back for the V10 or not?
I don't want a wireless flip cover either.
I haven't heard anything for sure, although I think they may. But I was searching eBay this morning and there are finally replacement backs with QI for the V10 available. Some look awfully cheap but there were a few that would be hard to distinguish from OEM. They all seem to be reasonably priced too, all were under $20.

Unfortunately, delivery times all seem to be some time in December, both from Amazon and eBay options. I wonder if LG will have a higher-quality offering before that time?

This was my dilemma, but I ordered a few of the sticker/receivers anyway - figured for less than $5, how could I go wrong? If LG or any US seller offers before I receive it, I'll buy it and then sell the ones from China when they arrive, or keep for extra if I get different backs.

Great point. Guess I'll do the same. I suppose they could show up early. That happens sometimes.
Plus, if they eventually release a *proper* leather back, even without Qi charging, I'll probably want a sticker to enable it, because I WILL be buying THE FIRST real (or close to real) leather back that becomes available for this phone!
So, what is up with the inside of the LG V10 back cover? Looks like a Qi charger, but is it not??

Nope. Just NFC antenna.
I suggest checking the other threads with posting, pictures, reviews and comments on several non-OEM and 1 OEM official LG battery back cover with NFC / Qi wireless charging in the V10 accessories forum.

Exactly what I was about to say. The official oem wireless charging cover is in the wild folks.
