Official LG slim hard case - G3 Accessories

I see the official LG slim hard case listed as an accessory on their website but haven't found anywhere to buy it. Doesn't show up in LGs store and Google search returns nothing relevant. Is this case simply not available yet in the US? Or does anyone know where to purchase it from? Thanks

Thanks for the link, I ordered the black one.

I don't think this has NFC or Qi and is not a replacement for the battery cover. It goes over the battery cover. Everything I've seen listed as "slim hard case" is what you really want. Not "premium hard case." Especially given the price. I am patiently waiting for the real slim hard case with Qi charging.
But I could be wrong.

Your phone should already have NFC lol.
But you are correct, this one simply goes over the phone.

Yeah, you're right since you are keeping the stock battery cover with NFC.

Which case can be used with the dock?

I'm looking for a case that folds in and out like a book and will work with a dock so I don't have to take it out everytime I want to use the dock. Any suggestion?
You can have a try the ''Clip'' case from electroniccrap.com
Which is sold out.
Does anyone want to sell a black clip case to me?

Well thats what I just did and there isn't any to be found, and I can confirm that non ever existed (on ebay or amazon) beside pyro's (which I have linked).
For some strange reason these clip cases is still off ebay the only way to get one is to just order it from Steve or get it from source (Aliexpress / DHgate) when he is OOS.

wow they sell it twice the price outside china.
I wonder if it still fits in the keyboard docking station.
It's got the cut outs for it but I think the silicone plus the transformer will not fit in the docking holder.

they can charge whatever right now...since they are the only ones making a silicone case.... give it a month or so..... prices will be about 5 dollars shipped from China
Please post some pics when u get ur case. Also u can call me a lier but before i even got my transformers i was already looking for a case, and on amazon i got to see a few tpu cases, like the ones from amzer, u know the ones with the sketchers on the back, and now for some reason when i google them i get nothing, and there were like 20 people selling them on amazon. So please post some pics i wanna know if this is real, also comments about how good and hard the silicone is.
I just put in an order for mine earlier. (Forgot to lastnight) Should have it within 15 days, least thats what they said. Got the black one, wish they had a grey, but oh well.
Looking pretty good. Very tempted to get one but hmmm I guess it won't play nice with the dock.
order a black one...hopefully it wont take too long to get here.
i dont think manycases will be compatible with the dock.
from what I read on Chinese website. this condom case doesn't fit really well, lil bit spacy.

Note 3 clear back covers

Does anyone know if there is a clear back cover for the Note 3? One that replaces the existing one but is completely transparent?
I saw one on eBay. Imo it looks dumb because your just end up seeing the battery and SIM.
I was also wondering to buy one transparent case...and I was looking for some on net...got to find this slim grip hybrid case for N3 and I really liked it....so just ordered it..and as per the tracking status..will be receiving it by tomorrow...will surely put up the reviews...its different looking nice...

Yabbut, isn't this a case that goes ON the outside of the device over the back cover? I was looking for a transparent back cover. I kind of like the industrial look of someone seeing the back and the battery and the device internals. Hey, some of us are geeky that way.

[Q] Wireless Charging back plate - where and how much?

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:

That's the question YOU have to answer, is it worth it to you?

Which Qi wireless charger is everyone using?

Just wanted to see what everyone was using. I purchased the TYLT Vu. It's a little expensive bit I wanted one that could charge while being on landscape.
I've got three of those in one of the newer cheaper versions of that call the a6 then another company makes. You'll find it on Amazon. Both of them work perfectly with the g3 in landscape and portrait.
I am using a Nokia "Fatboy" QI charger and it is working great!

I thought the Verizon model had wireless charging built in. But I tried my g3 on his qi charger and it didn't work. Any suggestions?

No. We don't have a F400.
The links are in the thread I mentioned, only 2 threads down from this one in the list.
The title should help you out...

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.
But the one you linked to is a great price.

Found one here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/UL-Qi-Stand...S_Cell_Phone_PDA_Chargers&hash=item19f0d9b650 ... but I like how the other one seems thinner and I think I would have less of a chance knocking it off than if it was balancing on that puck... I'm not too worried about time since I just ordered one of these qi stickers: http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6173009396.html today and will probably have to wait half a month any ways haha

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.
