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)
Hey all,
For those who got their Note 4 early from AT&T did they pull a fast one like the LG G3 and rip out qi charging pins in favor for powermat?
Thanks!
My understanding of qi with the note4 was that it only was available with the optional case, and it's not built into the phone.
Wasn't built into the s5 either.

Can someone with an att note 4 pop in a qi receiver and see if it charge up? I have a bad feeling they went pma just like the g3.
It's Qi charger. I don't have the adapter yet, but others have pointed out that the contact points on the back match the Qi specifications. I just got my Note 4, and opened the back, and indeed the contacts are identical to my wife's S4
Just because it has the Wireless charging contact pickups, doesn't necessarily mean it will work with Qi. The LG g3 had the same contact pickups, but at&t disabled Qi charging at the hardware level, and made those contacts only work with pma charging receivers.
let say wireless charging works, will it still take advantage of the fast charging feature though?coz I don't think so

NO, wireless charging is a Lot Slower charging than with your USB cable and AC adapter for Fast Charge.
It supports Qi. I bought the official samsung back. I use it with a Qi charger I bought off amazon. Works great but due to bulk, limits my cases.
Wireless charging can be done if you buy a wireless charging battery cover and these have them built in also. A cheaper route is just buying these little wireless recievers and stick them in, you can get them cheaper on ebay (but my work computer can't access Ebay sites).
Wireless charging IS slower than normal charging, its all about convenience. I have a few around the the house and a couple at work. Most output .5 - 1 amp range compared to 2+ amp chargers and the included adaptive fast chargers.
The links are for example only, not telling anyone to buy anything. Hope this helps.
I picked up an lg QI dock and tryed to let the g3 charge off it. Would not work. So found out that the us versions of the g3 do not have the correct back to work on qi dock charging. bought a replacement cover and then tryed to use dock.
the phone would go into charge mode for a few seconds and then stop charging. tryed moving the phone in differant positions and still no charge. then one night the phone charged, but it is intermitant. Is there something Im doing wrong?
thanks
The original back cover should of worked right out the box, I think the wireless charger is defective you have, try another one.

Qi chargers vary in signal strength and have an effective "transmission range" that is dependent on how thick the case of the transmitter is and how thick your phone's case is, if you have one on it. If you have a case on the phone try taking it out before you charge to see if that helps. Otherwise you may need to look for a "stronger" charger (they should have "transmission distance" or "charging distance" listed and anything 5mm or less is useless in my experience).

The US versions do not support wireless charging out of the box, as the OP said. I am waiting on a replacement antenna to handle both NFC and Qi, myself. I really got spoiled to the wireless charging with my Nexii 4 and 7...
Hi fellas,
I've got the Lg G3 and I'm gonna buy these days the brand-new LG G4.Now the tricky part!Can I use a wireless lg charger dock for both of the devices?And if YES which do you recommend?

Both phones at the same time? Don't think that exists for QI, since you need one coil per device. You would have to go with 2 separate chargers.
Hello wargreymon89, i mean a charger dock compatible for both devices
Any QI charger is good for it. Just remember that Quick Charge is slower than wired charging, it's about 700 mAh.
Hi there.
I have bought two Chinese wireless charger, I tested with Samsung and all of them works fine. But on my two lg G3 it just start and stop, I have about 5 wall charger with 2a and only the wall charger from Samsung works after trying a few times, is this normal in this machine. Thanks
no name chargers are an eternal lottery. I advise you to pay extra and buy a reputable one
I think best qi chargers for g3 is with 2-3 charging coils. So I heard.
not necessarily, quality is not quantity
