Hello XDA Friends,
I have LG OGP e988 in India. I just don't seems to get this: " Does this phone have build in wireless charging coil in back cover or I have to buy separate cover for the wireless charging purpose ?
Also,
Will the Wireless charger from nokia work with this device ?
Thanks in advance.

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.

Somebody Please post Back cover inner side photo with wireless charge.
Good morning.
Im interested in purchasing the LG G3, the version on my country is the D855.
I also want to buy a wireless charger, but does the D855 already have the wireless chip built in the back cover?
And does anyone know a good charger that isnt the official LG G3 wireless charger?
Thanks
No it doesn't, but you can buy the quick circle cover which replaces the back cover too, and that has wireless charging.
As for chargers, I can only give you links to what I've read about as I've never used any.
Anyway, here they are:

I own a D855 and a wireless charger. I do not use it currently, but I have checked and it works.
LG D855 does indeed have Qi wireless charging right out of the box. I currently use it with LG's Qi charger.
More details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2771886
My D855 has wireless charging out of the box (with the standard backplate). I've used it with the LG charger and a Qumox wireless charger. They work generally about the same standard, but make sure you use a charger with a higher amperage such as the one that came with the G3 (1.8A or higher).
One trick I have found to make the G3 charge more reliably when using wireless charging is to have the phone unlocked when placing it on the charger and tapping the screen once it says "Wireless Charging" to stop the screen from timing out automatically. Then leave the phone for a couple of seconds then double tap the status bar to turn off the screen yourself. I find doing it this way avoids the infinite loop of beeps and notifications when done normally (which LG seriously needs to fix)
Hello,
I'm trying to set my g3 up with wireless charging (too many wires around my desk!) but im having problems.
I have the quick circle case, which I thought had wireless charging built in. I then bought the following product: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00M9TBTDM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s01 hoping they were compatible.
I am thinking either the quickcircle case is only compatible with the official lg wireless charger? I never actually use the quick circle case anyway, just tried it for testing purposes. Would something like this from ebay enable me to use my normal back cover, to work with the type of charger ive listed above? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QI-Wirele...ories_MobilePhoneChargers&hash=item2ed969a5c9
I have the F400L Korean model.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Adam
Have you got the snap-on or the replacement backcover variant of QuickCircle? If former, then you can't use it for Wireless charging IIRC, if the latter, check how many pins there are on the inside of the cover, if it has only 2 of them, then it has only NFC compatibility and no wireless charging available, if it has 4 of them, try to carefully align the device so the center of the device is aligned with the logo on your charger.

Hi, I have one that replaces the back cover, it has the 4 pins, I tried moving it over all parts of the charger, there were times when the phone would begin to charge, but this only lasted for a split second. But as I said above, im not keen on the quick circle case anyway, would much prefer to get it working with the regular back cover
will one of those stickers from ebay work to attach to my back cover? the listings suggest they dont work for my model; "QI Wireless Charging + NFC Antenna Sticker for LG G3 D855 VS985 D851 LS990"
Try swapping your USB cable and make sure your power supply is rated to put out at least 1.8 Amps.
So, I've got a Rogers LG G3 (d852) ... and I've bought a Qi case for it that says it's for the d850 (which the mid frame back has d850 written in various spots). The sticker's contact points line up, but when I put it on a Qi charging pad it doesn't work. Testing out the NFC and it doesn't work either.
Hopefully it's a bum case... But I also purchased a d850 back plate that has NFC and Qi receivers, so I'm hoping those will work.
Doing some research it says the d852 is PMA ... but if I replace the receiver on the back, should it not work with Qi?
Help? What are the differences between the d852 and the d850 (from what I can tell it was which bands the cell operated on and nothing about battery contact points etc...)

I don't think you can just change the charging coil to make Qi work on D852. It seems D852 is missing the Qi charging circuitry inside the phone. Your best bet is get an PMA charging sticker and put it in your back cover to enable PMA wireless charging like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-G3-PMA-W...923?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ed9ec328b
I thought the 'receiver' that's the sticker on the case is the coil, and the leads in on the phone just provide the power.
The extra weird part is that the NFC doesn't work either.
I've ordered a Qi back plate to double check.

That is not true. The coil is just one part of the Qi charging system, it is not the receiver. There is a receiver IC in the phone that does two way communication with the Qi charger via the coil before any charging can happen. Think of the coil as a wifi antenna, and the receiver IC as the wifi card. Without the wifi card, it is pointless to put a wifi antenna there. Your wireless receiver IC is of PMA, and it does not work with a Qi coil.
Now it's funny because I went and called LG tech support yesterday (not saying they're the most savvy folks out there, but you never know).
According to them, the d850 and the d852 are exactly the same (some bands are different for carriers in the US), and even within the d850 line there's PMA or Qi charging backs but the internals are the same (or so they say).
Hey guys,
I just saw this thread on the LG G4 subreddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/lgg4/comments/38wo2v/atts_lg_g4_does_indeed_work_with_the_qi_version/
This guy confirms that Qi is indeed working on the AT&T G4, at least with the Quick Circle case. Has anyone else tried Qi on the AT&T variant yet?
Was wondering the same thing. Bump

Well that will be fantastic if it turns out to be true!!!
Great news! Can any others confirm?
would also like to know. My G4 should be arriving soon....
That would stand to reason, as the quick circle case is supposed to add wireless charging to the G4.
Yeah perhaps there's no hardware in the phone, it's all in the case and its pma or qi depending on the case you buy. Seems to me it's assumed that the at&t g4 can't use qi because the g3 couldn't, and they have a special pma quick circle case, but I can't find an official statement and the manual doesn't say anything about wireless charging either way.

The AT&T G4 supports both PMA AND QI.

I have the Sprint version of the LG G4 and the quick circle case. Yes Qi'charging is enabled and working great! 3rd party stickers should be on their way soon to enable the leather backs to do the same! So nice being able to drop and charge. Definitely the way to go!
I just ordered a cheap qi sticker and charging pad on eBay for my AT&T variant. I will post results after they come, which may take a bit, as it's a Chinese deal.
Well things didn't work out for me with my qi sticker, but I can at least verify qi works on the at&t version. Getting qi working wasn't a problem. Getting the sticker lined up enough my battery cover wouldn't buldge, that was the problem!

Qi works fine on AT&T LG G4
I have the AT&T LG G4 with the QuickCircle Qi Replacement Back Cover Case. I using a CHOE Stadium Qi Wireless Charger (3 coils) and it charges my phone perfectly. The back gets a little warm, but not hot so it doesn't hurt the battery. I'm considering going to the Tylt charger - it's just expensive. I really like the wireless charging, and the circle case is pretty cool. I like it much better than my wife's Note 4 smart window case.
Got the charger off Amazon and the case from Mobile Fun (in Britian)....

I have the AT&T LG G4 with the QuickCircle (Wireless Charging) and Ikea wireless charger and it is NOT working. I bought the quick circle case from AT&T B&M store.
On LG's website they list a Verizon compatible case (Qi) and an AT&T compatible case (PMA)
So maybe your case is Qi and mine is PMA? Maybe if I bought the Verizon variant I could get Qi to work? Sigh
It does work with the leather back... It more of a mission to find a qi charger that can penetrate the leather. I only found one that works consistently.

I had to pull off the little speaker really easy quick google search after that I pulled of the top plastic cover exposing the coil I covered the top circuit board with some electro tape, works 10 out of 10 times. I could cut some plastic and make it look better but since I don't travel with it, not much to worry about.
If you have an ATT SIM card in your LG G4, then you need to have the H810 model (the model designed to work with ATT) to get full functionality for things like MMS.
BUT, unlike all other LG G4 models, the H810 will NOT work with a Qi wireless charger.
For details, I suggest the Android Central forum thread titled "AT&T Variant Wireless Charging - PMA Again or Qi?".
Is it still working for you?

Hey, cellgeek. Is your H810 with Qi Circle Case still able to charge wirelessly? Assuming you're up to date on firmware updates, I think AT&T may have found a way to disable Qi.
Thanks.
