I found these today on eBay and bought 2 of them, one WHITE, one GREY. They are the CHEAPEST I can find online at the moment.
I decided to get the grey because I sound a grey note 2 today and it looked quite awesome. I got the white one so I can have one as a back up.
Here are the links:

No worries....I bought them because they are CHEAP almost HALF price than other original battery covers....and other cheap ones don't have nfc.

Thank you!
Do you like them so far?
Let us know how the covers fit when you get them! My original back cover is not snapping all the way in below volume rocker, if I press hard the back cover with the phone on the table I can get the clip hold for sometime, but even the slightest bump to the phone releases the snap from it's home.
The cover leaves a small gap in there which creaks a bit when I hold to phone from that position. I doubt that the operator store has spare ons lying around , but mayby I could try to have a flip-case for free for the semi defect back cover.

Yup let us know
Wondering if it's actual genuine cover...
Well I decided to go ahead and get one since it is only 15 bucks.
It says though that i shouldn't expect it until mid december. Once i get it though if i can remember ill post some pics.
edit: still waiting, eta is 0-19 days and tracking says it is in my state
new battery door finally came in. Material quality is almost exactly the same as stock. Writing on the back is missing the galaxy note II branding but that may be becuase i have the sprint version.
If your into using nfc then you may wanna go with oem. It appears to not have nfc antenna. The are some 3rd party battery doors that have it built in but they'll cost you a little more.

IF you use one of the 50% off Samsung codes, or register your device on Samsung.com and use the code they send you, you can order a replacement battery door from them for $9.99. Bought mine yesterday morning and had it here by noon today. I messed up the one that came with my phone trying to Mod it.

I only see the verizon battery door on the website.
You could also order from Samsung for $19.99... there's plenty of 50% codes floating around that could bring it down to 9.99

Can we start a discussion around this replacement inner bezel/frame?
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ACCESKE/
Specifically I'd like to know if this is compatible with SCH-I605, the Verizon wireless variant of SGN2. I've searched for an iFixit teardown or anything else that might show the internal frame on the VZW version but no luck. Anyone have info on this?

Near the bottom of that (mobile browser) there is a link to contact the seller "IDS Online Shop"
Seems like a good place to start.
I couldn't see why it wouldn't work, given that I believe the dimensions of the VZW Gn2 are the same.
I've thought about this too, the problem is the pins are raised so they make contact with the battery cover, there's already like 3 threads about this

You can use a thin rolled strip of copper tape to overcome the fact that the pins aren't raised on the VZW version. The thread on wireless charging mod shows how to do this.

Same here! I dropped my SGN2 and the silver bezel look awful. Ive been trying to hide it using covers but I would really like to replace it. Ive contacted many suppliers in my country, the only solution was to replace the bezel and the screen all together. That would cost me around 300 $s. Any other solutions?
Any luck OP? I want wireless charging in my Note 2 :fingers-crossed:

On the G3 there were (supposedly) OEM stickers, or you could buy the back covers with them already in (supposedly also OEM) I got one and put it in myself and it worked great. Just gotta wait for then to come around. probably wont be long.
Yeah there's a post on this section about some stickers already available from China, but nobody has reported back yet on how they work. Plus I think I'll wait till an actual back replacement comes out. What I'd love is a good sturdy case that protects the phone while replacing the back at the same time. You'd have the benefit of a strong case, with a slim profile. Kind of like the quick circle, but beefier, and without the flap.
I know that the Quick-Circkel case has Wireless charging in it.. But you probably don't want a flap on your phone.. #flapphone..

Yeah you're right. I wouldn't mind something like the quick circle, minus the flap. Because it seems like it's about the same thickness as the normal back. Then i could put a case on top of it. But yeah I don't like the flap, and I want a sturdy case. And I want wireless charging. I want it all! :silly:
I gave up looking for the LG G3 and then they apparently came out. LOL. I had a sticker for my S4 and it worked nicely, but did add a little bulk to the back. There wasn't much room for it.

Well hopefully in the next few weeks something might come out. I may end up having to try a sticker, but worried about frying my $600 phone with an $8 coil lol.
I don't trust things from weird websites. Even eBay can be a bit fishy for me. I'll wait until I see them on Amazon and purchase them from there. At least I would have some recourse if there were an issue.

Yep, I'm with you. I'm going to wait for something on Amazon. They always take care of me.
There have just been too many horror stories for unauthorized 3rd-party accessories (especially with iPhones and iPads), but not unheard of with other brands where damage was caused by unauthorized adapters, chargers, wires, etc. Not taking any chances!
Agreed 100% here.
I would love the new G4 but the lack of Qi is pissing me off. I can't understand why they don't make this standard. If you have never used Wireless Charging, you may think it is a stupid perk, but let me tell you, it is not. I have wireless charging pads on my desk at work, home, and bedside. I use the Nokia Qi Charger with multipoint that allows me to pretty much plop it down any way and it starts charging.
Sure it isn't a QUICK charge (which sucks btw, slow charging is better), but amazing... especially bed side.
I am looking online and only see the Folio cases which are absurdly expensive. NO Way am I spending $60 for a feature that should be there in the first place. The little QI coils are basically a single thin strand of wire.
Plus I want an OFFICIAL backplate... and it also (hopefully) doesn't add additional thickness because I want to use a Feather case.
Guess this purchase is on the fence. My G2 is still rocking. I am in no hurry to get rid of it.

I'm coming from the Verizon G2, but can tell you first hand the G4 is 1000% better, faster, strong, and lighter. Better camera, better battery life, better screen, etc, etc, etc.... Sure I miss the wireless capabilities of my G2, that's why I've ordered a wireless sticker from China!

Man you are preaching to the choir. I decided that wireless charging is a must have with my next phone, partially because the charging port on my old phones always wear out from my incessant plugging and unplugging, but mostly because of how frigging convenient it is. And like you, I was also pissed to find out the G4 was not coming with it so I was seriously considering the Galaxy S6. But I was still on the fence because of other features on the G4. But the free 128gb SD card and free battery, cradle, and 32gb SD card threw me on the G4 side. And I am glad I did. Loving the phone. Typing on it right now. [emoji3] But I will not be set back. I WILL have wireless charging, I'm just going to have to wait a bit. Even if I have to buy the quick circle and hack off the stupid flap. Wonder if a normal case would fit on it then? Also don't want to spend $50 on a case only to rip it apart lol. Anyway. C'est la vie.

Wow autocorrect. Anyway, natepacker, paqmanbiker, call me what you want, it's both me lol. I've got Tapatalk figured out now. It's near impossible to type in desktop versions of forums on a phone. Is it just me? The cursor jumps all over the place and types words in weird spots? Not just on my G4, any phone. Tapatalk is nice though.
I'm in the same boat... Coming for a VZW G2.... I need wireless charging on my G4!!!!!!!!!
I also have a VS980 and want the G4 but would be really annoyed not being able to use the 4 wireless chargers I own!
Wireless charging backs and stickers will be available soon. Just be patient. The phone just came out in the US.
Did they ever come out with a back for the G3?
Yes. Just did a simple list on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_n...ords=wireless+charging+back+for+lg+g3&x=0&y=0
Are these available yet? I do not want the Folio case, or any other gimmick. I'm hoping to simply get a replacement back that will allow for wireless charging.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Hmm interesting, so i have the ATT h810 model and i took a look at the back and it appears that it has both pins Qi and PMA. I am taking a look at the site AliExpress that everyone is looking at for the stickers but i dunno. The description says its compatible with my model but the pictures show the pins for Qi, i already have PMA mats soooo yeah thats a problem. As for people asking about cases vs. the sticker, i prefer the sticker since its cheaper and easy to transfer. All you need is a blow dryer which will then help remove the original sticker and replace with the one with wireless. I did this with my G3
T mobile grey plastic back
My cover has the contacts that are nearer to the top on the left side looking at the back with cover removed. the Qi sticker has contacts there that would cover the existing ones on the cover. I'm guessing they are for NFC. Will QI sticker disable NFC?

Awesome deal here! Grab the G4 tempered glass for $6.99 and the case for $12.99 and you have a final price of $7.64 shipped to your door 2nd day Air, if you have Amazon prime! Great deal because I just paid $8.50 for just the Qi sticker alone! And that won't be here for another 2 weeks probably... Keep in mind what you are getting with this deal too! If you want to wirelessly charge your phone than you can take the sticker out of this case and put it in your own case if you don't like the one they send you...

Got the Quick Circle Case for my new LG G4 with wireless receiver integrated inside it. In just $13.99, the combination of both Quick Circle and Wireless Charging Receiver is the best thing I am experiencing right now. I saw the original one on T Mobile that was available at a huge cost, around $50. But still confused, you can observe with my words that why this one is cost effective and other one is so costly? I am satisfied with the quality of this cheaper one as it also have 12 months warranty. So where the difference exist? couldn't able to understand!
What you have to understand is that cases = margin. The reason they are so expensive @ TMO is because it's all profit. If the case only costs TMO $5 to stock, and they sell it for $50, they just made a $45 profit. This profit covers overhead... Store employees, lights, phone, internet, etc etc.
Sellers on Amazon don't have to cover these expenses, thus they can get by with lower margins. Also, the case from Amazon isn't an official LG case, and most likely was sourced through cheap labor (read China, although the LG case is probably Chinese as well). The case probably costs the retailer $2-3 each depending on purchased quantity.
That's kind of a 1000 foot overview of how economics of retail works, but I hope you get the point.
I pre-ordered one last month for $9.99 from Amazon. But returned it. Its don't have the LG G4 logo and its make the phone look cheap. Still preferred the leather back with Qi Charging sticker xdddddd

I bought this Quick Circle case on ebay for about $14 with free shipping. It is Black, which is not a color available on the LG website. The packaging looked genuine LG, but it was all in Korean. It is very well made, lays flat when closed, and all apps work with the Quick Circle app. The qi wireless receiver is not molded into the back, but is an unobtrusive patch on the inside of the back cover. Wireless charging works very well. I charged my phone from 49% to 100% in just over 2 hours, which exceeded my expectations for wireless charging. Very happy with this result. If its not OEM, its dang close. Plus, the price is unbeatable!

is your black a bit floppy per say? The QI charging ones don't come in black. The red and black ones should be made of a soft, grippy, rubbery plastic. If it matches the description what the guy has done is throw in a Qi sticker onto it (or is a good generic.)

No, I know what cases you are talking about. I've seen the ads for the black and red "rubberized" circle covers, but have never seen either in the wild. The case I bought is an exact duplicate of the OEM LG Circle case, just in black (and the Qi receiver is not molded into the plastic, as previously stated). I did not expect this case to be as well made and perform as well as it does for the price. I will also say that the back of the case is slightly less slick than a dark silver one I did see in person. Another plus in my opinion. But again, this is not the grippy, rubber case I think we have both seen in ads.
Also, everyone should note that in order to get the circle case which has the Qi wireless receiver in it, it must be the one that replaces the original back (and not the cover that just snaps over the existing back of the phone).
LG's quickcircle uses a sticker on t he inside of the back.

Thanks! But i think it is better to buy the one with receiver inside. If buy a case and receiver separately, it can make the phone more bulky!

I wasn't saying the company is Chinese, I was saying that is most likely where the cases are made.
I got the original LG case for free with my phone, the catch being that it's pretty effing useless when my phone is the dual sim variant, which doesn't support wireless charging...
How do these work? Does it have a backplate AND a case? Or do you remove the original backplate and this case clips over it? Looking at the pictures it looks like a slim hard shell with a flap. I am just trying to connect the dots.

Non-QI ones slip over, QI one's replace and have the flap as part of the back.
For these cases, can the front cover flip all the way around and be placed against the back of the case? (EDIT: Yes, watched some youtube videos.)
If so, does the wireless charging still work when the front cover is flipped around and resting on the back of the phone?
I have a Qi wireless charging setup in my car mount. The phone+case wouldn't fit if the front cover is flapping around, and I'd like to make sure the charging would still work through the front cover+back plate.
EDIT: Got a response from one of the reviewers on youtube--some chargers did fine with the cover between the back, others had more trouble. Probably has to do with the quality/robustness of the qi charging element.
Just as a follow-up, I purchased the ebay one mentioned earlier in this thread.

The text on the packaging is all in Korean, so maybe it's real. Or a really good fake.
It's $12.31 only!
One small issue I had when I put it on was that the wireless Qi charging was unreliable. It'd work for a minute, then stop. Or not at all.
I thought it was probably the issue the small contact in the case back not making a good connection to the phone. So I gently lifted up just that section and stuck a small wedge of paper underneath. Looks like it is working reliably now.
Because it's relatively inexpensive, and I usually use a TPU case on my phones put into a holster, I may just buy another one, cut off the front cover, and slip a TPU case over it. This way it's a relatively inexpensive OEM wireless charging back.
EDIT: I take it back, wireless charging worked great for about a day and then it completely stopped working. I tried to elevate the connection a bit more but no change. Not sure where the defect is coming from.
Also, the back is a tad larger than the normal snap-in back, as it fits onto the outside corners, given a bit of corner protection, so I do not know if a TPU case slipped over this would fit completely.
Now I'm not sure if the case is defective, or the phone is defective?!! Annoyed.

How do these work? Does it have a backplate AND a case? Or do you remove the original backplate and this case clips over it? Looking at the pictures it looks like a slim hard shell with a flap. I am just trying to connect the dots.

You need to remove the back case of LG G4 and than adjust this quick circle case according to the instruction given in User Manual!

Did your case come with the LG logo on it? I saw some pictures without the logo along with pictures where it had a logo, but was in the packaging. Please clarify.
Also, does it provide drop protection on the sides?

I bought this Quick Circle case on ebay for about $14 with free shipping. It is Black, which is not a color available on the LG website. The packaging looked genuine LG, but it was all in Korean. It is very well made, lays flat when closed, and all apps work with the Quick Circle app. The qi wireless receiver is not molded into the back, but is an unobtrusive patch on the inside of the back cover. Wireless charging works very well. I charged my phone from 49% to 100% in just over 2 hours, which exceeded my expectations for wireless charging. Very happy with this result. If its not OEM, its dang close. Plus, the price is unbeatable!

Had to order at that price. Does it charge well? Someone else here complained it didn't. I don't care, just don't want to waste money on the charger.
Also, does the cover stay closed?
VS986 (LG G4)
Has anyone has seen/bought a wireless charge cover for the G4 Dual?
The G4 single SIM back cover looks like this

The red circle shows the contact point for the wireless charger receiver, and goes to the contact point of G4 Single below (in red circle)

While, G4 Dual back side looks like this:
View attachment 3429740
If you look at the contact point of the wireless charger cover, the red circle doesn't have any correspondence contact point in the back side of G4 Dual
I've looked in ebay/ali's, all of them seems only for the single SIM G4. Couldn't find any for G4 Dual
