It does have wireless charging built in the back cover...if you open the back you'll see some 3-4 pins and a circular thing in centre. But not sure if Nokia charger would work but in logical terms it should work.

Why they didn't mention anywhere on Box ?
Are these pins for NFC ?
Please someone post backcover inside photos.

I can confirm that wireless charging works by default in the international version. I am using the original LG WCP-300 and also use NFS stickers in the car to wireless charge while driving. As soon InI plug into my cradle it recognized car mode and automatically charges wirelessly.
E988 HK version.

The Indian version does not have wireless charging 'built in'... there are no pins on the inside of the back cover, it is just a plastic case.. Wireless charging is built in only in the at&t version and I think the HK version
If you want to get wireless charging on the Indian version you will have to buy the quick cover.. the quick cover back replaces the original plastic back of the phone and it has the wireless charging pins.. But downside is you will have to keep the quick cover always on

But the main question is lg selling no accessories in india.
Any link to buy one if available.
Thus device almost seems dead in terms of accessories. Lg not even sell batteries online.

I have a base that came with the nokia 920, would love it if i could use wireless charging on my new phone. Thanks for any one that can answer this question.
You have to buy the $50 Quick Cover Folio case: it comes with a new backcover that is compatible with wireless chargers.

Maybe the first LGOG Pros didn't originally support wireless charging and they changed that later on. In any case, I stand corrected.
k cool good to know, i just got mine the other day. one thing though why didnt it come with the charger for it. When i bought the nokia 920 it came with the wireless charging bad with it? hope i got the latest version that is cool to know though. thanks everyone for the replies.

The original Korean version has 2 batteries included therefor it needs separate Quich Cover with wireless charging support. AT&T E980 though has 1 battery but supports wireless charging with stock cover
yep tried it this morning and it worked. kinda sucks though it didn't come with charging pad. Nokia 920 dose.

I think so. You need a high output wireless charger or charging will be slow.

The Optimus G Pro supports the Qi standard for wireless charging. The Touchstone docks do not use the Qi standard.

You are right but tell me is it true that using wireless charging to reduce battery life? The lider Huawei said about it and does not recommend to use wireless chargings.

Not sure if that's true, but wireless charging does seem to occur at a slower rate which should be better for battery health overall.

I agree with you, bro ))). I have read that information "The lider Huawei said about it and does not recommend to use wireless chargings" from one Russian site and I think it is true because many people supposes same. I think the wireless charging reduces battery life.

Does this come with the needed power brick and cord?
Package Contents:

Looks like you need to buy a 2A brick like this one:

which would be bad since that wcp-300 can't even charge a phone to full while google maps is running.

The battery isn't removable, so it isn't really possible.
I have a MotoG, and upon taking off the back cover, I can't seem to locate the pins normally used with Qi pads like on the Samsungs. So, I may be completely wrong, but as of right now, I think the G will not support wireless charging.
I suppose those could work http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-Q...l_Phone_PDA_Chargers&var=&hash=item3cd871bdf7 but they are a bit besides the point if microusb then cannot be used...
I've ordered one of those Universal Pads and some other stuff from DealExtreme a week ago. I will report back with pictures when it arrives here. The parcel however is still in China and I don't think it will clear german customs until after christmas.

I'm very interested to hear if this works. I haven't been able to find any reviews for those Qi charging coil inserts, either. Have you heard of it working on the Moto G or other phones?
Motorola would have advertised it as having wireless charging if they put it in. This was one of the features they left out to cut the price

I'm asking about those aftermarket coil inserts that supposedly provide Qi charging by plugging into the micro USB and going between the battery cover or a case.

I think you will find the clearances to be too too tight for that. I think the best bet will be if someone integrates it into a shell or case.

[Q] Qi Charger (Stand)

Currently have this wireless charging dock for my Nexus 7: http://www.amazon.com/KiDiGi-Wireless-Charging-Google-Nexus/dp/B00FIG39RC
Works great (once you cover the sticker) and also works with the LG G3 (Verizon, I replaced the NFC sticker with the Qi/NFC from Alibaba).
Would like to get 2 more Qi chargers (both stand style). One to put on my nightstand (for my phone mostly, tablet usually sits in my living room) and another for my desk.
Is there another stand style charge that works well with LG G3 and Nexus 7. Ideally would be slightly more compact than the KiDiGi, as well as better looking and/or not $70.

How quickly does it charge your phone?
it charge at 1.0 a, so is slower than using the usb cable, but for me is not a problem

It is a rubber material and it holds it in place. I bought the same one but it does the power cycle issue where it will charge for 10 seconds, stop charging, and then start charging again. I wonder if only people with the Amazon/Ebay stickers have this issue. I have tried two stickers and 3 different cheap chargers with the same outcome.

Depends on which sort of model you have. G3's sold in India (and I believe Asia as well) have the wireless charging support inbuilt to the default cover as well as the Quick Circle case. US variants don't have it by default as far as I know. I'm not sure about the European models.
how about the tylt vu? http://www.tylt.com/vu/
works well with the G3, but only works in landscape for the nexus 7.

If it is the international model D855, it should have wireless charging (qi standard) right out of the box
Just checked yup, it's the D855 model, great news thanks
The stock phone does wirelss charging, but there are two versions of the official LG case/cover. Only the more expensive one does wireless charging - the coil is in the back plate.
yes. that back plate, does have wireless charging
