Wireless charging? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I read that the Verizon LG G2 will include wireless charging. I currently have a Lumia 928 and am loving the wireless charging capabilities! Question is will the G2 work with the same charger or will I need a new one?
Thanks all!

most likely will work. I have the Nokia fat boy that works on my dna and nexus 7, and it should work on the LG as well.

Yes, it will work. Both use the Qi wireless charging standard.

I didnt see anything about the us LG G2 having wireless charging. Is this confirmed?

That is probably why the changed the buttons on the back,maybe to make room for the inductive coil.

What Wireless charger are you using?

I am currently using the LG one (WCP-300) but I want to get a new charger because I also use it for my Nexus 4.
I am currently using the S4 Qi charger, but would love something better suited. It can be annoying to position the tablet right on mine. Can't wait to hear other input either.

I use the "official" nexus charger from Google, cus my 7 is the only qi device I have... Otherwise, I would want something bigger I think, to charge multiple devices. I love it though, its a great stand, sometimes I use it as just a stand (without being plugged in) when I'm on my computer as well
Energizer Qi-Enabled 3 position chargger. Charges my N4 and N7 simultaneously. I highly recommend it.

12 volt charger?
Are any of the wireless chargers able to run off a 12v cigarette lighter socket?
I want to mount my Nexus 7 in my car but don't want to have to plug in/unplug the micro USB cable everytime.

That's the single position charger, I have the 2-position version and it charges my S3 and N7 at once with no issues. I could do without the silver logo and trim though...
How long it takes to charge?

I got the S4 during the promo sale. It is the first QI charger I've gotten. It works fine with the N7, but I would have to get something else if I needed to charge more than one thing at a time.

This one wasn't available at the time I got my Nexus 4 in November. I have the dual-charger model: http://www.energizer.com/portable-power/wireless-chargers/qi-wireless/Pages/dual-charger.aspx

Approximately 2-3 hours from 4% to 100%. I usually do not watch and take the phone off when the charging light is off.
I got the Samsung Charger when it was on sale for $25. Works great.
I'm using this one from Amazon -

I picked it up for either 35 or 39 but it's a bit more exp. now. Works really well, and will beep at you if your device isn't on the pad correctly.

The charger you need to buy separate.
The charging plate is built into the back of the tablet.

Thanks for the info. Is there any difference in the charging time between wired charger and wireless one?

Yes, qi charging is not as efficient as straight cord.

Way too general without some data to back it up. I know my qi charges faster than USB to PC. I strongly suspect my Panasonic TM-101 (12V, 1 amp) charges faster than the 5V, 1.3 amp charger that comes with the Nexus 7 (2013). Someone more interested than me can test it.

LG Nexus 4 slow charging

Do you guys notice the LG wall charger that came with the phone seem to charge more slowly that others? I tried charging my Nexus 4 with a samsung charger and it charge at least twice as fast compared to the LG that came with the phone.

There's a reason this phone has a smaller battery. Therefore they'll use a less amped charger. For instance it takes longer to charge my note 2 than my nexus 4 does. Our LG charger is only 1amp. My note 2 is a 2amp hence 2x faster.

But why would they make it charge slow. I just don't see the benefit in doing that and the charger I use is a galaxy s2 charger. The battery size is not much different.

Check the specs on that charger. And it's more efficient.

The output on the LG is 5v, 1.2A and the output on the Samsung is 5v, 1A. It seems the LG is suppose to output more, yet it charges more slowly. I also notice sometimes with the LG charger the phone switch to usb mode.

Probably due to USB cords I have no issues at all with charging.

How long does it take you to charge your phone to full?

I noticed my charger got slower too. I swapped the cable and it charges fast again. The cable that the charger comes with got faulty, but I can't really notice anything when inspecting it.

Wireless charging only for verizon??

I don't have a wireless charger yet.. But been reading only the Verizon g2 has the capability.. Any truth to that ? Tmobile or att won't?
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
I tried a nexus wireless charger on mine (AT&T) and it didn't work. From what I've read it's only the CDMA versions of the phone that support wireless charging.
Wireless charging capability on the LG G2 is exclusive to the Verizon version.

Is it bad to use my 2012 N7 charger for my N4?

Simple question. Does it limit itself or should I find one that's 1.2A?

I'm using my Moto Milestone 2, T-Mo G2 and Nexus 4 chargers for Nexus 4, Moto Mile2, G2, and kindle. No problem at all.:laugh:
as long as you don't use it while flying chinese airlines... your good.

[Q] Jealous of VZW G2s, is there a wireless charging addon?

For a bit there I thought my G2 (sprint) might be wired up for wireless charging! I got all excited and went off to Amazon to order a charging pad and all, but luckily I saw that it was verizon exclusive before I purchased one. Now the bug is in my head... I know a lot of phones have some way to add on wireless charging by sticking some magnetic receiver under the battery door or something. Is there a kit for the G2?
No.

Yea those work good. They also protect your usb feom getting junk in there. Just make sure you order a TPU case with it.
