US Model Wireless Backs/Cases/Inserts/Stickers - G3 Accessories

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.

There are some of us who bought them and they didn't work. I haven't heard of one working from that seller. I just sent mine back.

Just finished reading that thread & just edited my post accordingly as you posted. Not good.

It didn't on yours, several others had posted the same one worked on their G3.
Did you have it under the battery cover and NFC or on top?

In good time good solutions will come out and work fine.

---

May want to snag a verizon g3 back. The VZW website as well as csr's confirm the vzw g3 comes qi ready. Just need a qi charger.

---

It looks like the lg slim hard case and rubber case both come with wireless charging

---

I've got 2 Verizon G3s on the way, so we'll see.

Could you post a link?

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.
