I know that the G4 does not include wireless charging without the quick circle case which is why I'm confused about what the sticker is inside of my back cover. It looks like wireless charging... But I don't have anything to test it with. This is the Verizon version. See the attached picture

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.
Guys, one quick question, does the genuine battery door come with the wireless charging coil? I just bought a new battery door and its missing the coil.

It does, I'll attach a picture of mine.
Make sure you attached the clip that can be seen near the top right of the orange connector that comes from the coil. It should be about a centimetre above the nexus S, I didn't do it the first time I opened it and the QI wasn't working.
The problem with mine is that its missing the coil, its not there. And also the new cover is a little bit lighter than the older one.
Hello guys, I just bought mine yesterday in Indonesia. It's the dual sim LG 818p version. And when I looked at the cover, I was surprised to see what possibly a wireless charging module. I asked the store guys and he don't even know. And I haven't have the chance to test it out yet with a qi wireless charging. But so far, it really does looks like a wireless charging module, right?

That's.... A bummer, it got my hope high ?
Yup. Def. NFC. Wireless leads would be on the other side.
There a video on YouTube where u remove that piece of nfc sticker and get one that has the wireless charging.. I believe the youtube name is pocket now

You can buy the chip for wireless charging. Its a sticker like thing that goes where the nfc sticker is. You remove the nfc sticker then replace with the new wireless charging/nfc sticker. There like $10 on amazon. Seen it like 2 weeks ago.
And it goes through leather? Further I read that in dual Sim Lg g4, the second Sim slot occupied the space where the connector to the wireless charging is
Nvm, saw the video in pocketnow.
And I was right. The connector is missing in the dual Sim Lg g4. I guess no wireless charging for us
I bought mine in Singapore and it was the leather quick circle case. Unfortunately, there is no sticker comes with it. While I understand wireless charging won't work due to terminal being in SIM1 slot, the NFC is also doesn't work.
I bought a sticker to enable wireless charging for the G4, however I noticed that the sticker covers up the existing 2 contacts on the NFC that came as part of the plastic back. I'm not against installing the sticker to add QI charging, but I'm concerned that it blocks the contacts to the NCF which is already present. I assume others have used the same stickers to add charging and what to know what they had to say on the matter.
Thanks,
ERIC

I just purchased the same QI charging sticker and it has NFC built into it. You have to remove the current NFC sticcker in the case backing and replace it with the QI wireless charging and NFC sticker. The QI charging sticker should have the contacts where the NFC connectors are and also have the contacts for wireless charging, this is why the stock sticker needs to be removed.
Enjoy your wireless charging

The back sticker consists of 2 parts the NFC and also a black lump under it, which I assume needs to also be removed, no instructions make figuring this out fun! Found a picture on Amazon, as to the order of the stickers: QI first then NFC, seemed backwards, but that is what they showed., so that is what I'm doing
As for the sticker it is on and seems to be correct, but the charger does nothing, tried removing it replacing it I'm 99% sure it is correctly placed, but there is no way to check 100%; added some paper behind the contacts to move them forward, still no charging.
Assumed the sticker was bad, I bought 2 tried the second one same thing, tried both bases and both stickers (destroyed the one removing it), still nothing. So either the phone is bad unable to charge via QI, the stickers are reversed, unlikely given it matches pictures or it does not make contact, there is no way to be sure but I'm 99% positive they align. I do not really need QI, just thought it was nice, but currently I'm about to give up on it since the sticker simply do not seem to work and buying a case with it makes no sense.
Using a meter resistance is 0.06 Ohms, when off the QI, on the QI there is a pulse occurring so I assume that means the sticker is good, as a result I do not know what is the issue I do not see any way to monitor how much amperage is produced, perhaps it is too little to register with the phone as a charger?
My thoughts to date, QI via add-on sticker is a waste!, a very cheap waste but a waste ensuring proper contact is basically down to luck, and I'm not having any a 5 minute job has taken an hour of my life so far with no result to show for it.

I bought 2 stickers from Aliexpress, rebuild 2 Phones with the sticker, both of them are workin and charging flawless
we have the Black leather back, the embedded sticker in the cover must be removed to succuess.
I bought this phone second hand so i a not sure. can you take a look at the pictures and let me know. ive bought a wireless charging dock from samsung waiting for it to come
No, it's not for wireless charging. You need to replace the sticker or buy a special backplate.
You just need a qi wireless charging sticker that costs about $10 to enable wireless charging.

I'd like to know that too. I have same cover like Passportpowell and i think this is just NFC antenna. See attached pic.
Passportpowell please let us know if charger works once it arrive. Thank you
EDIT:
I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/wireless-charging-t3105154
then search on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_sop=15&_nkw=lg+g4+wireless+sticker&rt=nc&LH_BIN=1
So, for our cover we need to remove current sticker and stick new one. This one for example:http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Black-Qi-Wireless-Charging-Sticker-Receiver-With-NFC-IC-Chip-For-LG-G4-F500-/272030501486?hash=item3f56480a6e:g:5KsAAOSwT5tWMd2s
OR just buy Quick Circle Case.
