I purchased a Qi sticker a few months back and placed it inside my back cover (replacing the existing sticker). The Qi sticker is tight putting a slight bit of pressure on the back cover when attached to the phone. Over time the pressure from the back cover with the Qi sticker has caused the screen to start pulling away from the phone on the left-hand side causing light bleed. I am pretty sure that it is caused by the Qi sticker because when I removed the back cover, I can press the screen back down with no further issues. You may want to think twice before getting a Qi sticker as it will likely cause the screen to separate over time.
I'm using a Qi sticker with no problem. Did you remove the old one?
No. I really like the Qi charging capability. I read over on the Verizon LG G3 forum that others were having the same problem and the few people that posted all seem to have a Qi back cover. I purchased an aftermarket Qi sticker from China and replaced the existing NFC sticker. I didn't buy the official LG Qi back as I felt they were too expensive. I noticed this morning that the screen was separating this with light bleed. I bought an aluminum bumper to add some durability to my phone so hopefully that will help.
AT&T sticker has that problem. Didn't know With enabled stickers did, too.

Ordered a black and a white last week. Lets see how they are, not too bad for a few bucks though.
The original flip case is a back cover replacement but these are shells that you add to the back so it makes the phone feel thicker. Also, something to note is that when you flip the cover around you are going to cover your camera. And also when its closed you cant see the notification light.
I bought the original from best buy, but didnt realize those issues and returned the cover the next day. ALSO. For those who actually buy the original samsung flip cover, once you install it its VERY VERY HARD TO REMOVE, I had to work hard not to scratch my phone trying to get that thing off. Very disappointed with it.
And on another note, I hear that the wireless charging will be a battery cover replacement accessory, so such large back shells may interfere with the charging. I'm going to hold out till the wireless charging is released.
I purchased one of these a week ago and came in today, it's the official AT&T / LG flip cover with wireless charging and NFC.
Came in today, in a plastic bag inside a padded envelope. Works great, feels great, definitely the real thing.
Don't mean to sound like an ad, it's not my listing, but I've seen people getting replacement back covers without Wireless charging for $30+shipping, so this at $20 is a steal!

One question, if I hold the phone or sit the phone on the table, back side down, the front flip cover part doesn't stay all the way shut. The right side is about 1/4th inch up off the screen. The auto screen on/off still works but it'd be nice if the cover stayed "tight" on the screen. Though I understand there is no magnet or anything on the far side so it may not be possible, is it... possible?
" the front flip cover part doesn't stay all the way shut. "
That's probably why it was a RETURN aka REFURBISHED and why there was only one of it. Discounted.
I just bought 2 from the same seller (extra one by accident, hope this seller a4c will let me return it for refund. He didn't even responded to any of my email telling him to just send one). I want to know what do you think of this flip case overall, since you've been using it for a while by now. Does it protect the phone from accidental drops well? I'm thinking I'll have to bind the cover with a large rubber band or something to keep it from opening up when it drops. Right now I'm using am Abecus flip case. It works okay, but holding it in my hand is kind of awkward and tiring. I'm hoping to do better with this lg flip case.
Yeah I'm also searching for a nice smart case for the G Pro and would love your feedback
I just got mine today, and I must say,I'm kind of disappointed. This flip cover case offers no real protection to the phone what so ever. The cover itself may protect the screen from scratches in the pocket or bag, but I already have a screen protector for that. It's really just a lg e980 back cover with a screen cover flap attach to it. There is no protection to the four corners of the device if the phone falls. The battery most likely to come out if the fall is a hard one. The flap itself doesn't attach to anything, there isn't a magnet or a button to keep the flap close. The overall appearance of the phone with this case, is just like the original phone with a black plastic screen cover, but it does give a smart look. Earlier the op mentioned that the cover won't stay tight. On mine it works fine, may be it's not staying tight due to that the synthetic leather needs be worn before it will fit right, but it's really not an issue. The plus side of this case is that when you close the flap, it does make the device sleeps, and open the cover wakes the device. This feature alone is worth the price of the case. Using the cover to wake and puts it to sleep beats the gestures and the button any day. I'm not sure about other features I have heard about, such as the NFC and the wireless charging because I haven't tested them. I may return this case because it doesn't protect my Phone, but my other cheap wallet case is already showing signs of wearing, and this case does look sharp. So I don't know. I may have to shop for another case soon. I will post in a few days after using this case for a while.

Well they just suppose look fancy but where never intended to really protect the phone.

What's fancy about a piece card board like screen cover attach to the back cover? I figure since they call it a case, it suppose to protect the phone. My cheap wallet case offers some protection when I drop it. They really should call it 'screen cover' because there is really not a case anywhere. But like I said, the best part of this 'case' is the screen sleep/wake function. I may grow to like this special back cover after all.

Are the Korean models (I have the S) wireless-charging-capable out of the box?
I tried wireless charging with the Nokia Qi charging base, but it didn't work... no matter how much positioning.
I thought it is supposed to work, and the battery cover certainly looks like it has the charing receiver in place.
(And note that I'm talking about the phone itself, not the phone with the the Quick Circle cover)
The battery cover on it only has 2 contacts ... that's nfc the qi charging cover has 4 connections... Korean and us model won't have it

S is not wireless capable out of box, the back cover only has NFC.
I have the S also, just added the Quick Circle Cover, now it is Qi capable.

Can you remove the flap part (maybe cut if off) and have just the back cover? (and have it look relatively normal, not like a coyote ripped off half of your phone case with its teeth)
Yes you can just cut the flap off with a sharp knife.
But if that's what you want, you can just order the G3 Slim Hard Case? They even sell this case cheaper the the Quick Circle Cover.
Hi everyone!...
I bought a smart case for my G3(not original). But when I try to change it with original rear cover, I saw four small yellow metal portitions on it. And the case that I bought does not have them. What does exactly do these yellow metal portitions? Am I going to face any trouble if I use that case?

Those are the contacts for the wireless charging and NFC coils on the back cover. I hope you bought the correct cover for your phone because I believe there are three different contact configurations.
2 for Qi charging
2 for NFC
If the case isn't using them, then you're not using those technologies....
EDIT: mrfeuss beat me to it
Does the lg g4 come with wireless charging? if u look close in the back cover it looks like a sticker. weird didnt try it yet.

The sticker is for NFC only, you'd need to either replace the entire back cover or take off that sticker and get a wireless one.
I have had great success with a back cover I ordered from here:
http://www.dealsishop.com/lg-g4-door-qi-metallic-grey.html
It has the sticker already pre-installled and fits like a glove.
Both NFC and wireless charging work flawlessly!
The wireless charging also still works with a Diztronic TPU case and my Seidio Dilex Pro case.
The price is pretty competitive as well.
