I bought this cheap charger:
http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/221422967001?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
I hope it works with decent charging speeds.
Does anyone know if wireless charges have any ratings or specifications whatsoever that affects charging?

Clove (in the UK) are doing a deal where you get the WCD-100 free when you pre-order the G3, and since their price is only £20 (US$34) more than Amazon UK are doing it for that seems like a pretty sweet deal to me. The RRP for the WCD-100 is £59.99 (US$102) here, so you're effectively saving £40 (US$68)
Can't comment on the charging speed, but if it's like the other wireless charging "solutions" then it'll be slower than a proper cabled connection, but certainly fast/good enough to suit an overnight (/nightstand) or desk charge. I came across a G3 review (sorry, can't find the link) that says that the G3 is smart enough to warn you - with a pop up - when the phone isn't properly docked in the charger. If true then that's a neat feature, all the other wireless charging things I've used only confirm when the unit is docked correctly, (e.g. HP Touchpad "bongs").
Having had the official Samsung S3 charging dock I'll be interested to see if the LG charger supports the phone better than the Samsung's one does, and also if the G3 has a "docked" mode like the S3 does.

thanks, i will have a consider this option until my G3 actually arrives in 9 days time. if the deal is still up, i think i gonna take the plunge.
my other consideration is that it would take about 6 hours to fully charge the 3,000 mAh battery wirelessly?!? that's like... forever...
there is another steal just came out, the incipio wireless charging pad for $13. tried to get that, but turns out that the merchant does not accept overseas paypal account.
I've got one of the cheap chargers from Amazon, it was working with my nexus 4 and then when my g3 arrived it wouldn't work with it.
However, it's not working with my nexus 4 too after trying it again today, so I think I might've just got a dodgey charger. But, someone else on the forum has had the same exact problem I'm having; charging for a couple seconds, then disconnect.
Was thinking about getting the official one, but tbh spending £30ish to stick a wire into something else and charge my phone on that a little bit slower doesn't really seem worth it.

My cheapo charger does not work at all. It detects a device placed but my g3 ignores it. Makes me wonder besides following the Qi standards, what else needs to be in place?

It does get warm near the cam area when playing games. Nothing unusual to me.
Just one time it got extra hot when I was converting from Dalvik->ART and the screen refused to turn off. The conversion took a while to complete as it has to convert over 200 apps.

I purchased a OEM back without any NFC or qi and a white OEM back with the NFC and qi. I'm going to remove it and make it work on the black one since I have a black G3. Both back covers will be here by Saturday so I will post pictures as I go. It may not be the cheapest or most effective way to get qi charging but it will get the job done. I just hate the ATT back with the death star on the back and I wanted to get a new one so I figured why not get qi as well.
(Pictures and walkthrough coming soon)
Let me know if anyone has suggestions or has tried this already.

Where did you buy it? I just did a cursory search on Amazon with no luck. I'm looking for some way to get QI charging without having to go the AT&T powermat quicksilver case route (what the hell were they thinking going powermat).
Yes I have done this. Ripped off the coil from the quick circle case and stuck unto my Korean back that didn't have wireless charging. Works great!

I'm a bit of a bull in the China shop and have no subtlety at all and it still worked out fine as the sticker sticks quite well. I used tweezers to remove it and then removed the one from the original with tweezers. Then stuck it on and it looks ok. Let me get a photo of the finished product and I'll post later.

Get the ones that have three coils in them e.g. the Tylt Vu. They're more expensive but work well. I'd say the problematic ones are those with only one coil.

Nope, no issue at all. You need to position the phone at exactly the right spot, but as the charger is quite small is easy to find it. Then it charges with no interruption and tells you when it's full.
I will probably be doing exactly the same thing
Possible to buy something like a wireless receiver for LG G3, there are tons of them for Samsung S5,Note 3 etc. That would be easier no?

Since I've been reading I've found that there is a Korean Spec backing that has 4 contacts that are very close, and is not compatible with the US LG G3 models. I didn't see another thread about these yet so lets use this thread to post US LG G3 compatible wireless charging backs, cases, inserts, or stickers.

Here's a good example photo I found of which one will NOT work with the US LG G3 models. Note how close the pins are on the Korean model and how they are spread out in groups of 2 on the US models. The US Model is the "Not Compatible" version shown in the pictures above.
I've given up. I've already ordered three different battery doors and canceled them after a new thread showed up saying they wouldn't work. I just ordered one of the crappy stickers that plugs in the usb port, and I'll just use that until I can get a qi compatible back.

Ok then this isn't good news: they don't work either.
So the only successful method I have heard to work to get wireless charging on US devices is to get a back panel from another variant and physically transplant them to your back panel. I'm really starting to hate the US variants because of all these minute changes that screw up features for the phone that many were looking forward to. I just hope that some companies have a solution for us in a couple months.
Check this out.
It looks like the Qi charging backs are starting to come out. I asked the seller to confirm it's Qi enabled & asked if available in black. There is a white variant as well.
Seems Verizon is offering Qi charging because there is also a Verizon branded version of this back cover for about $20 more. The LG variant is only $29 with free shipping. Good price.
Edit:
Read this thread. Same seller as the link I posted. Seems the covers aren't working. No one knows if just a bad batch of what the story is. Watch as it develops.

I saw guys were trying to get qi to work on the att model. They have had no luck. Thought I'd give it a go.
So I took the charging coil out of my galaxy s3, taped it to my qi charger, and placed the contacts onto the pickups on the back of the g3.... And nothing.
I understand this is not an official g3 qi receiver, but I thought it would have worked. So either you need an official back cover OR I'm thinking att crippled any wireless charging that is not pma.
I purchased my wife an ASUS Padphone X from AT&T. They threw in a Duracell PMA wireless charger if you purchased the cover case. It would be fine if AT&T threw in a wireless charger to close the deal since they changed from Qi charging.

I am one of the people that got the back from eBay. I am starting to think the same thing. I just cannot believe that we all got bad backs. I wish there was some way I could look into this in root. Does anyone know where the files would be to understand what is happening with wireless charging? I think I may start a thread on this and hopefully a dev will chime in.
All these treads are doing is making me want to sell my att lg g3 when i get it and buy the tmobile one and unlock it. it has an unlock bootloader already and im sure they will root it soon
I thought I saw mention that the G3 was powermat wireless charging and not Qi standard?
That could be why some are having issues maybe?

Only AT&T uses power mat via their version of the quick circle case. All other variants, backs, and cases support qi. There is no mention that they removed qi from the phone. It shouldn't make a different because the receiver is just receiving a different frequency and transmitting it into charging. I could be wrong, but you should be able to use PWA or qi depending on what case/back you are using.
After messing with some cheap wireless chargers on Ebay and getting the slow charging crap I said screw that and bought two Tylt wireless chargers for $35 each at a T-Mobile store. I just wanted 4 chargers and that's why I tried the cheap route first. Not all T-Mobile stores have the Tylt and it took the manager some time to even find the SKU to check inventory at stores. The SKU is SUPM39575. Happy with the Tylt since it's made well and you just place it on and it charges fast enough. Some chargers are picky with the G3 but the Tylt doesn't require any sweet spot to charge. Amazon and Micro center carry the Tylt but it probably cost more.
Tylt probably works with most cases. It does with my Nillkin. I haven't tried with my Insignia case yet.
You need a sticker for wireless charging. I got mine from this thread (thanks iazybandit). Not sure if he has anymore.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g...icker-t2827738
Also you can get them from this place in China. Not sure if Ebay has any yet.
Tylt has a light at the bottom and turns green when charging. If it turns red pull it off and put back on.

$35 is a REALLY good price for a Tylt Vu. So good, in fact, that I am wondering if they aren't actually remarked Itien A6's being sold under the Tylt name. Either way, good deal; both are good 3-coil chargers.

I found out T-Mobile had the Tylt chargers on sale from a guy on her that works at T-Mobile. damn I need to tell him thanks. I think they didn't sell good and T-Mobile is clearing stock. The A6 was my second choice. Back in the Palm Pre days I made a stand for my touchstone and put it in the car. I thought about doing it with the Tylt too.
I just ordered my Tylt last night. Returning the WCD-100. It was constantly asking me to center the phone.

I know that was over priced which is probably why it's on sale now and or I think stores are not selling Qi chargers anymore for some reason. Well Best Buy and Radio Shack stopped selling them. Not sure what year model the T-Mobile Tylt is. I saw a different one at Micro Center store and it was $53. Might have been the same one but different packaging. This one says $43.

If anyone is able to find one, let me know. I'm debating between the Tylt Vu or Itian A6 for home use.
I paid $48 at a Verizon store after my office discount on accessories, but for $35 I'd buy a second one.
Thanks for the SKU info!

If you find a Tylt at a T-Mobile store for $35 then go for that. If not, I really wouldn't spend more than a few $s extra for the Tylt over Itian. My Itian works perfectly and many others have commented that as well.

I agree. I'm not going to lose sleep if I can't find a TYLT.
They had 5 left after i bought mine in Bloomingdale, IL Stratford square mall corporate store.
Called 3 different stores that didn't have it. just went to one that was in the area I was in and they had 2 on display.
I just got my Tylt from Amazon. Plugged it in and set my phone on it and started charging right away. Much better then the LG charger which kept asking me to correctly position the phone. It appears to be charging just as fast as the ac adapter.
I've called every tmobile shop in Western NY and Northern PA/OH (I'm in Canada) and nobody has these in stock unfortunately.
I'll go check the mall again, if your interested just Pay me what it costs plus flat rate shipping.

Got mine from verizon

Thanks, but I went there on the weekend and got 3 of them
I gave my wife my other Tylt charger for her S4. At first it wasn't working since stupid me didn't plug the cable all the way in. Wife loves it. Now she doesn't have to try and find her wall charger cable when it falls behind our bed. Lol. The charging reciever was only 5 bucks. Would be nice if the Tylt charger wasn't angled as much so you can watch movies while it's charging. Not a big deal since I wouldn't do that often.
My mom was in the hospital a few days so I used my phone a lot. I wish you can keep the phone off when charging on the Tylt charger. For some reason it turns back on. I know with wall chargers the G3 charges fast when the phone is off. I know with past phones they had a fast charge option I think it the kernel. Think that will ever happen with the G3? Not sure if it's even ok. lol
Can anyone reccomend a good wireless charger and an app that measures charging rate?

Just got the TYLT and very impressed by how fast it picks up the phone and charges even through my Unicorn Beatle case. Little on the higher priced but if it lasts a reasonable amount of time will definitely be worth it. I don't like using the USB port to charge seams to shorten the life of the port a little
Itian A6 is my favorite and it's less than $30. -

Port or battery, seems either way it's shortening the life of something.

not seen an app for this, but I've been extremely impressed with the Choetech redesigned one. Search Amazon for B00C40OG22 as I can't post outside links.
A whole lot cheaper than most the other ones but has worked perfectly so far, easy to position about 1/3 bottom of the phone.
I just got the Choetech Stadium 3 coil and it works great so far.
Wow, I guess it's been a while since I looked at qi chargers because these are all < half the price I remember.
Yea, no kidding. Last time I looked the prices were to much for me to bother. lol

Yeah that's it. Just position the bottom of the phone even with the bottom of the pad and its perfect.

I use the Choe and a Nilikin. Had them for a while. The Nilikin doesn't charge sideways if the phone has a thick case and it will not line up the coils. Friend has a huge case and mine is not so big. Don't know about the in between sizes.
Got my Choe Stadium yesterday. Working great so far, even with two wraps and a Ringke Fusion case. At first I thought it was charging slower than it was draining, but decided to leave on while I slept to see. Charged to full np. Not hot or anything.
I don't seem to get almost any variation in charge speed by placement according to Ampere.
Did yours come in a box labeled "UPGRADED" on it? Didn't see a mention of it on the page (might have just missed it), and was just curious.
I just received this today. It works great and you can charge wirelessly on the go or with usb.

The CHOE upgraded and CHOE stadium are different models. I ordered from amazon and they sent me the wrong one so I'm returning it. The CHOE upgraded is a square and has only 1 coil. While the CHOE stadium is a rectangle and has 3 coils.

I actually looked it up after I posted that. Forgot to update.
It is the Stadium, but apparently a newer version. (T511 was the old one I think, from a few years ago)
"T513 QI Compliance UPGRADED VERSION" is what's on the box, as well as the CHOE Stadium stuff on the back sticker/back of the (rectangle)charger.

That is a very good charger for the money. My wife has been using one for a few months and I recently picked one up to modify it for use on my ProClip car mount. Works great. I removed the case and mounted the PCB directly to the mount with 4 small bolts that go through 4 convenient holes in the circuit board then cut the lower portion of the rear case off so the remaining bit attaches to the top to cover the back of the PCB. I have only been using it for a few days but so far it has worked as expected. Looks pretty 'factory' too.
The company already has a plan for a charging case. Can't wait to buy it. HYPEEEEEE

When your phone is almost dead and there is no plug or you are traveling and need to charge it. Simple.

This was my thought, if this case is more expensive than a Car Dash charge it'd be pointless for me! The battery life on this phone is just insane as it is, got 6hours SOT yesterday, I've NEVER gotten anything past 3/3.5 hours before.

They just look so ugly too, to put a huge bulky case on a phone which has gotten very nice and slim...eek!
What they didn't tell you is that their plan is NOT to make a case for the OP5.
Just say'n.

People that are out all day and evening but also want to use their phone normally. You might go to work, head out that evening, have a few drinks, crash at a friends and go direct to work. They have their uses, people that go camping also get good use from them as well as battery packs.
I have the one for the 3/t. It's huge but it's useful for long flights. The fact it works as a power bank was also useful to charge my buddy's phone too.

It's not rocket science is it? Lol.. The moor accessories, the moor better I say!
Hey. When is that? Can you ship one to me in India please? my email is joy (a) srinjoysen (.) com
I wonder if this actually is going happen? Yeah the battery last long enough but who would complain about more juice?
I had one for my S7 Edge. Problem with this case is USB OTG function won't work anymore. Have to remove the case.

We are waiting for this battery case... i'm waiting for like 2/3 months i guess, when you said the same thing to me on twitter... Do something like iphone 7, with 5k mAh, and slim.
In 2 days after the announce of iphone you guys put the case to sell... Come on, more you guys delay, less we'll buy it!
And please, try to sell using Ebay, amazon can't delivery to Brazil anymore e_e.
*Waiting for the case*
Well I happen to add the Amazon place holder on my wishlist and then accidently clicked on it today and it said available!. So, I just ordered one. Anyone know when this first became available to buy? Anyone have one? I hated the one for the nexus 5 with a passion, but I'll give it another shot for the rare times i need it.

Less than 2 weeks ago. Have been waiting for someone to post reviews and videos. Please do post as many photos as possible. Want to know if headphone jack requires an extra dongle for reach. If that's the case it's not for me
Just so you know, it costs $59.99 on Zerolemon's site with a 10% disc if you use THANKYOU10. I dont know how much you paid for it. It's not a referral code or anything.

so i use that itty bitty powerpack on my keychain or the big ass powerbank in my backpack
Okay got it today. Here are as many angles as I could think of that would be helpful and I compared the size with a nexus 4 and an iPhone 5s. I've tried 3 different headphones and all connected without any problems (the slot is huge). However, i wouldn't use one with an L shaped connection. It was very difficult to remove. Straight ones were no problem. The speaker grills are kind of nice. Holding the phone in landscape doesn't block the sound this way. Although I'm not sure how long you could hold it. It's heavy as hell! I can't comment on battery life of course anytime soon, but if there's any other questions let me know.

Well give it like a week trail , and see how it goes, if it works out well for you , though i'm wondering if it gets warm , etc if it's in your pocket while giving it charging power and so on. There has to be some kind of that going on to keep it up to 100%, otherwise if it works out well for you, i will buy it as well.
