What kind of LG G3 do you have? (D855, ls990, etc.)
Also make sure your battery cover has the wireless charging antennas!

It's a known problem if you don't place the coil of your phone exactly above the coil of the charger. You need to find a proper place on the charger to put the phone there.
Another issue may be that you're providing not enough power to the charger itself. From my experience the charger must be at least 1,8A. Any less gives the result you described. Of course also use good usb cables which can transmit more than 700 mA Best would be if you try it with the original G3 charger with original cable.

the seller says it is Not compatible with LG G3 as i can see

I tried 2 different no-name chinese wireless chargers and had problems with both. Charging would not last more that 2-3 seconds.

The wireless charger won't work with any general charger. You need to use LG Stock charger that came with your phone or similar output (1.8A) adopter to make it work.
Hit thanks if I helped.

I want to buy a genuine fast charge cable. Need help to find it

Hi guys,
I bought a genuine lg cable model no. DK-100M but unfortunately the awg size of the wiring is lower than the cable supplied with the home charger so if I try to use it to charge the lg g2 is quite slow.
Could you please tell me the exact model of a genuine lg cable like the one supplied with the charger capable of doing fast charges?
Thank you!
Why bother and pay much more? I'm using original Samsung Galaxy S4 travel charger and cable and it performs SAME as original LG one. You can have it for few bucks on eBay or Amazon.
I got a Sony charger. It has Fastcharge mentioned on it. It is rated at 2A.
So most 2 Ampere charges from reputed brands will work. When I use the Current Widget, this Sony charges my G2 at 1.6 Amps which is exactly the same as the default LG charger.
I do not need the charger. I just need a fast charge cable.

Even cheaper. Just buy original Galaxy S4 cable...
Is it possible to just buy as spare part a genuine lg cable like the one supplied with the phone? I do not believe that lg does not sell it alone.
I would prefer the lg cable.

Yes. Just contact LG customer service and they'll ship it 2 you for, I believe, $8 + shipping.
u got it all wrong. The charge speed is not determend by the size.
If u What to charge with over 500mah u ned to chortsircut data wires or your Phone just Thinks it Connected to a copmputer usb port. Most chargers have this i The charger. some lowqualety chargers dont. thats Whe o are slowcharging.
mod the cable. (cant
be used as data aftrr)
If it's just a cable, I think it doesn't matter as much.
I tested my old HTC cable and Motorola cable and both are able to fast charge me phone.
Members, you can use this thread for this Topic, btw I use an official Sammy Note 3 charge works great IMO, cheap on Amazon.
Thread Closed.

Samsung spare battery and charger are not Qi compatible?

Hi all,
I'm posting this in case anyone else purchases this gear and thinks they can use it like the original battery that comes with the Note 3.
There is another post in this forum that talked about a 50% off code until June, so I bought this:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EB-K800BUWESTA
Even with shipping/tax, it only came out to ~$31. I thought great deal.
It arrived and I noticed that you can't use it like you would the original Note 3 battery where I stuck a Qi-enabled sticker on it and could use it to wirelessly charge my spare battery when the main one runs down, figured I'd just buy another Qi-enabling sticker.
Thing showed up and it's NOT Qi-compatible. Meaning, it has no contacts on it that let me attach a Qi sticker. Not sure if it's by design that way but just thought I'd provide a heads up in case anyone else is looking to buy this.

There is two ways to do this,
1 modify the unit to support qi by adding a receiver inside.
2 use a USB receiver or a USB dongle.

1. Are you planning on opening up the battery to do this? Sounds like a lot of work and possibly ruining the battery if you screw it up
2. If you use a USB receiver, aren't you then completely ignoring the point of having wireless charging? I don't think I understand #2 completely.

1 you can open the battery charger that come with the battery and put a qi receiver inside, the battery charger then can be placed on a home transmitter.
2 connect a USB qi receiver through the USB port on the battery charger.
If you actuall want just the battery with qi built in, it's only available for the S3, S4 and note 2, if it's not qi, but supports wireless charging, other batteries are available for older phones models.

[Q] Does my G3's back case have Qi wireless charging receiver already?

Hi guys. I bought my G3 few months ago. Its not a new one, I bought it as second hand but condition is 99,99%.
As the information I got from the seller its D855 Vodafone - International.
So my question is as those images i shot on my back case is this true that my phone can use with a Qi charging pad right away now or not?
Because after searching through the net, I didn't find any information about Qi charging relate to G3 Vodafone.
The receiver on my back case has 4 pins (as I know 2 is for NFC, and the other 2 will be for Qi charging).
The problem is I went to other shop (not really a shop, this guy just shipped items from China), he was selling some Qi charging pad. I put on 1 pad there but nothing happen, try many angles but still the same.
So whats the problem, my phone or his pad?
And here my back case. Thanks for your feed back and sorry for my bad English:
Yes, it should work.
If it doesn't work with the Chinese charger it's because the charger...

Make sure the golden square hits the ones on the back of the phone
Is there anyway i can get qi wireless charging on my f400s by buying a back cover which supports qi?
Qi works out of the box
Yes your G3 should be Qi compatible out of the box...I have a Panasonic, and Nokia Qi Charger, and they start working about 2 seconds after I place them on the charge pad.
Just FYI, the G4 on the other hand isn't Qi Compatible out of the Box...Go figure, I guess Quick Charge 2.0 is the better standard...=(

quick charge cable

Hi there. I just got lg g5 and straight away I bought 2 USB c cables so I can use my other charger at work for instance and keep original at home. I tried new cables on original charger however they are not fast charging, only charging according to info from the phone screen. Can you guys please advice what cables i have to buy to be able to fast charge with original charger? When I search on websites for USB c cables there is no description of the at capable to charge fast. I also have aukey quick charge 2.0 charger and wonder if I can use it with lg g5 to get a fast charge. Thanks in advance

Stick with Anker brand. Hands down best cell phone charger/USB brand! Reviews speak for themselves.

Depends on region/software version too. My extra cables worked fine for fastcharge until I updated, after that only the original cable would still do it. It's been mentioned a few times already too, looks like some of the updates block 3rd party cables from being able to use fastcharge.

Well I called LG in my country and after the second call and 4 days of waiting they told me that they're "not aware of any changes made to inhibit the use of 3rd party cables" ... they completely ignored the fact that users both here and on local Android/phone forums reported the same thing.
So yes, it is complete BS ... but since fastcharge is supposed to be detrimental to the life of the battery anyway I'm not too fussed about it any more. I got myself a small charging dock that's hooked up to the USB on my PC - while wayyyyyyy slower than even regular charge it at least gives me easy access to my phone, and if I leave it connected whenever I'm at home the battery doesn't discharge too much and I can live without fastcharge

I'm actually running CM13 now but it never occured to me to try it again with the other cable. Next charging cycle I'll give it another go
I'm not really sure which regions are affected ... a quick glance over the posts I made regarding this seems to have mostly europeans with the problem, but I can't say for sure.
Fast charging should not depend on cable, unless the cable is very poor quality with high series resistance.
I have 2 QC 2.0 chargers from Choetech and Tronsmart. I also have several usb c cables from Yozoon and Choetech. They all fast charges the phone just fine.
As for the usb-c cables buy only from name brands, and you need to confirm that they include the 56k resistor included for device protection.

I confirm that it's complete chaos in regards to chargers, cables and Fast Charging.
I bought a Tronsmart WC1T charger, it won't fast charge with the included cable, but it does that with a Vetter cable. A colleague has an Ankey charger and some other cable, my phone does not fastcharge with that combination, only with a different cable. These are both QC 3.0 chargers.
Supposedly, the cables should not matter, but it's not true.
Anyone purchased a 3 meter cable in the UK that will fast charge (tested with a meter 17-18 watt) an LG G5 (h850 or h830 etc), if so please let me know the manufacturer of the cable? a link would also be helpful.
It sounds insane but on some ocasions fast charge has only work for me by trying different sides of the usb head (as in flipping it over) with several different cables and phones.
Maybe its all a fairytail but it works :cyclops:
These cables (even the 3 meters one) fast charge the LG G5 H830 in stock and in recovery mode for Lineage os 14 (tested with original charger).

I bought a Sony QC 3 charger and cable, didn't fast charge, it did though with my LG cable. The company sent two more cables, none of them fast charged. I then bought a 3 pack of Aukey cables (very nicely braided finish, solid connectors and 56k ohm resistor) the Sony charger, fast charges with them. And no I don't work for Aukey, just a sad man that appreciates a nice cable, lol.

Problem with charger. How to fix/replace it?

My Moto 360 2nd Gen started behaving strange some weeks ago.
After one afternoon powered down, it couldn't be charged or have it's screen powered on when I was placing it on the charger.
Now I took it for a check at the service center and when they checked it with their charger, then the screen came back to life.
So I guess, I will need a new charger or cable. But how can I identify what is the problematic part? And from where can I buy some new original parts?

I would experiment with power supplies and cables and see if it works. The LED at the bottom can help you figure it out, i.e., it will light up or not. If it's the actual charger, then you probably need to hit Amazon. I bought this on Amazon for $9 as a travel charger.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y5KBCTR/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Works fine so far.
Well, the light at the bottom doesn't help much.
It was on also before, but no actual charge was taking place, as I have mentioned earlier.

Anyone knows from where I can buy online an original 2nd Gen charger?
At Amazon and ebay there are many clones, but I don't want to risk it with them.
