I just received mine and popped it on instantly.
Guys / gals, this is by far the best presentation I have ever seen in a case/back cover. Way better than OEM IMHO.
It's real leather (smells like a new car with leather interior), cut is fantastic, quality is amazing. I put it on and popped on to my CHOEtech 3coil Qi wireless charging stand and it starting charging instantly, no worries about placement or finding the sweet spot.
The packaging it came in is like a compressed cardboard or particle wood casing you'd keep cigars in. I got the BROWN one.
LG V10 Wireless Charging Battery Leather Door Back Cover Case http://www.ebay.com/itm/281853142038
Hey would you or anyone else have a TYLT VU Charger ? I bought one Amazon when they were on sale but I also have 2 cheaper knockoffs Itian's. All 3 are working for me I picked up the Black Leather Back. But on the TYLT I have issue where the phone will connect to Wireless charging and then disconnect it might do this up to 3 times or 2x and once the screen turns off it will be connected and can tell by the Green Light. The Itian's just plan connect and don't have this issue. I also have a Nexus 6 and it connects with the TYLT just fine without that issue.
Not sure if's really a issue will give it time since I just got the Leather Back today will see how it perform's.
Well now looks like my Itian's are having the same issue but now it won't even connect the light will just Flash from Red to Blue no stop.
Does this feel "soft"?
Current price is 10.49 without wireless charging. How much was it for the wireless charging version? They are currently out of stock so cant see pricing for that option.

I paid $16 on eBay from a US seller. It does have a nice feel to it but really don't matter to me since mine will be a case 99% of the time. I decided for $16 why not since the sticker along is $10-$15.
FWIW, I too bought the $16 eBay back, and was just refunded by the seller today. It has connect/disconnect issues, and heats my phone up way too hot. Seller claims he is removing them for sale, and sending the batch back to distributor. FYI for anyone considering this product t.

I bought the same, paid $14, mine does not have the issues you mentioned. I use a ChoeTech 3coil stand. It is warm while charging until full, like all my Qi devices..
I've had the case for a bit over a month now, ordered the white to match my phone.
The good is that the color matches well, apart from the lines you can see where the leather is applied, it pairs nicely with the phone. The wireless charging works great, and it has a generous amount of wiggle room when placing it on a qi charger compared to my old S6 which was tricky to place just right. It also feels very nice in the hand compared to the textured back, and is much more grippy surprisingly, especially when the phone gets a bit warm, getting your hand a little sweaty.
The bad parts are that it is noticeably thicker than the OEM cover, and you can feel it when you place your finger on the power button to unlock it. The other part would be more likely my fault, since I choose white, but it gets very dirty and it can be tedious having to take it off every so often to clean it. The third and last part, three clips on my case have already broken. They are on both sides, near the bottom. Most likely from constantly taking it off to change batteries, and cleaning it every few days.
I got one white leather and 2 plastic one's, I have stopped using it as some members said they had their phone wireless feature dead after a few weeks, has anyone had this problem.
I got the same case in black from Amazon for $18. It came in the same package and box. The material was fake PU leather. Returned it
They must be taking a loss or something. They're now going for $25 without the charger (still not available)

So it just sets in there? There's no securing it down?
There is no real Need to. The back holds it in place. i thought of some thin 3M tape but would make it thicker. I have seen some thinner wireless receivers out there but they are hard to get and charge with half the power.

I have this one as well and the 'power qi' labeled charger I ordered came in today. Works great! 'Very' slight bulge but really hard to see. I was expecting worse, and think this bulge thing is overstated a bit.
I've got the Trident Aegis case which is pretty bulky and creates a good gap. Although a little more finicky (must be in the right spot) than without the case, it charges fine.
Overall I'm very happy...and I just ordered another charger.... my eBay seller in Hong Kong got the first one to me in 10 days! (I'm in the US).
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
What charger base is he using? Or do you guys use?
The insert took me 10 days to get...US here as well. Well worth the wait and way better then the one from samsung!
Like i said with the case you cant tell anything is there and without it you really cant tell either. I mean that tiny back would not close if it was really bad!
I am using the Nexus Charging Orb that i got when i order my nexus 4. Straight from the play store. Its a little pricey but its crazy awesome quality and direct from google. It is a 1000mA charger
I will see if i can get a charging screen shortly
I'm using the same charging receiver . Got it from an online retailer (fasttech) at much cheaper price.
quick delivery, but this is the first time i'm having a problem with what they sent.
This one is not working for me. Quite erratic. It just keeps on connecting and disconnecting the charging .
maybe I'm the only one receiving a defective piece. Will wait for fasttech's response before heading to aliexpress.
If you hate the "huge" bulge, just get another cheap back cover and cut a hole for the charger (with heated knife or something really sharp), then secure it with some tape. Put even the thinnest case on top and you're ready to go.
That is unless the case is transparent
Got in the LG OEM wireless charging back today for the V10. It is of very nice quality and maybe only a hair thicker then stock back, very hard to tell. I don't think there will be any problem fitting into standard cases.
I got it for the everyday low price of $79.00 plus shipping from Amazon.
Only has LG and not V10 on the back corner.
I've add a few pictures showing it side by side with the stock back.
Very cool but also a bit pricey but it's LG oem so your gonna pay a bit more bought a cheap back cover from china with wireless charging that works well only paid about 15 bucks it has a leather back and the fit isn't quite as good as the stock back if you have the money I would definitely get the one you picked
I've used both Yootech and OEM. OEM charges quite a bit quicker and with less heat.
Thanks to the OP's for the information and photo's.
It isn't going to be much different in the quality of the charging, the only different is the built quality, the QI and PMA circuit (PCB) is in the phone, the back cover only contains the coil to complete the wireless charging part.
The current coil use for both the OEM and third party is a flexi coil, isn't the best, it's used because it's thin, I'm going to mod mine when I get the V10 within the week, and put a proper copper strand wire coil, has better detection, less heat and less transmission loss.
I have a few types of coils made especially for wireless charging, and will post back.
you can just buy the Qi receiver sticker for less than $10 and apply yourself.. why would anyone buy this for that price?

That doesn't make sense, the charging hardware is already built into the v10, 3rd party including OEM is just a coil and connection to the pins. Which should not make a difference in charging speed or heat. Only thing that might affect that is placement and alignment of the back of your v10 to the charging pad..
What are you using to determine charging speed and heat?
EDIT: Attached is my Brown Leather Back with NFC/Qi sticker. (btw is that the British way of spelling chargeing?) I've also ordered NeWisdom's sticker, will review once I get it in and on.
Where did you get the leather charging back from? Is it much thicker then the stock back? Please let me know how the NeWisdom sticker works out. Was going to order one also.

You are correct to a certain point, both OEM and third party uses a flexi coil with a flexi magnet, the quality of these also determine the detection and aligment.

There are no special settings that I'm aware of.
I'm fairly irritated at LG for the glacial speed at which they're releasing official accessories for the v10 . . .
Now that that's out of the way, I bought this: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B017R40JRA?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
It's already unavailable (which isn't terribly surprising). It is just a little too thick, which pops the case up a bit over my power/volume buttons (so they're annoying to use). Also, it's pretty much stopped working. I might try to realign the thing, but it worked fine for both NFC and Qi (TYLE Vu) for the first week or so. Now it doesn't reliably charge (though NFC continues to function).
All-in-all, I'd rather pay for an OEM cover, where I SHOULD have to worry less about alignment and having a poor fit.
I'm curious about the NeWisdom though . . .

I liked the wireless charging on my nexus 6 so when i bought the V10 i had to get wireless charging working on it so i bought the leather qi/nfc back for $15 of eBay (connection station) and it works very well with the Anker qi little disc charger i bought off Amazon but the leather back doesn't fit exactly as good as the stock back there's that little gap by the volume buttons you described but worth it to have the wireless charging working
Yeah, I'm going to give it a few weeks--hopefully the stock one will come out (a more reasonable price would be nice too), or someone will come up with a back cover that's a better fit. A guy can dream, right?

GSM and the fact that it literally takes twice as long with the Yootech. So a watch is what I'm using to determine the speed. It can and does make sense as it depends on the conduction of the materials used. If yootech uses different metal composition in the coil then it gives off more heat energy and doesn't charge as fast. Welcome to physics.

That looks pretty nice. Check out my cart here, you can see all my goodies. I'm going with an off brand Spigen clone because I like to use my phone wile it's on the dock and this one looks more stable for that.
I am planning to go with the Yootech back cover. Hopefully it's wont cause the phone to get warm like some others seem to be saying...
For the OEM back, is it able to trickle charge at 100%? On my Nexus 5 at 100% it would just trickle charge and stay connected and cool while keeping the battery full. With my qi leather back I got, it hits 100 disconnects and then reconnects in an endless cycle randomly waking my phone up and keeping it warm. Sometimes my Tylt clone will just shut off completely from the cycling which isn't conducive to having a topped off phone for overnight charging.

Hi,
I'm in intrested in buying the wireless charging cover for the s5 but I don't now if it is worth it.
If someone had it could he give me some feedback? Thanks
There are severalI different charging covers @ the market.
I own the S charger cover EP-CG900IWE by Samsung and I don't want to miss it
What's wrong with just plugging it in?
doing wireless gives you flexibility , just put it on tap of wireless charging pad and will charge the phone
Bought mine maybe 6 months ago, it's an S-view wireless back cover combination from Samsung. I have to say it's great having this, I have 2 charging pads, one at the office and one at home; I just place my phone to the pad when I'm not using it and doing work, and at home I place it on the pad before going to bed so I don't have to worry about battery level anymore.
The only thing you should check out is it's losses(power), with 2 Amps of input, you might only get 700-1000 mA of output so charging will take twice as much time as it would if you use the stock charger that came with the phone.

I don't really want the s view case...
I use genuine Samsung wireless charging back cover , from Amazon UK £28 with a Cheotech 3 coil charging pad, from Amazon UK £19
Anyone managed to find black cover with Qi? There are some on eBay from USA, but with sick prices (100$ and more). There is one on Amazon UK http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Charger-Cover-Galaxy-S5/dp/B00IN9HZ0S/ref=sr_1_10 but "Temporarily out of stock". I've even talked with Samsung customer service in Poland and they said they don't have it.
I have this chinese Qi coil that goes under back cover, but it's rubbish. It lifts the cover a bit, making gap around LEDs and ruining water resistance.

I've got the same problem mate. I'm about ready to accept that fact that if I want Qi charging with good looks I'll have to buy an S-View cover
I've talked with support on Amazon UK. They told me it's really "temporarily" and if I buy it, they'll have it in few days. I'll try. If not - probably S-View + carpet knife to remove the front.
This may sound stupid but Ikea sells them, but only in white $15. I know sounds crazy right!
I've had the wireless charging cover + pad (not s-view version) and i say that i really enjoy the use of it -- very convenient.
Got a pad in the office, the bedroom and in the car!
Charges slower than cable obviously and the phone does warm up quite a bit, thankfully it will pause the charging if it gets too hot so no biggie on that

Do yourself a favour and do not buy those.
They don't fit properly and I'm sure they don't even properly seal the back.
Tried one and immediately gave it back.
It was incredibly difficult for me to find one of those back covers as well (germany), but after days of searching trough various vendors that are supposed to are samsung resellers, I finally found an original S-charger cover for my white S5 on amazon for 30€.
Take a look:
Telefonide tarvikud | Maxfield - Samsung - PowerNeed - Grateq - Omega - Ansmann - Olloclip - Caterpillar - KSIX - Sony - Photopoint
I use an Easychee qi-Pad. Lifts the backcover a very very little bit.
In combination with an easychee t300 the best thing for my s5 i ever had.
Perfect charging through my silikon flip case.
For the easychee t300 (about 40$) theres a special tip.
I bought it via amazon. Its name is KOS-T30PC Charging Pad.
Its 100% the same pad. Cost 15$ via amazon.
Look its this one
Amazon US and Amazon UK now have them listed and "temporarily out of stock". I "bought" one on each site. If I ever receive one, I will cancel the other. Or accept it and sell it on eBay.
The UK one was 23 pounds. The one on Amazon US was only USD$22! And "Usually ships within 1 to 2 months."

For you that use the S-View cover, doesn't that front flap get super annoying? Don't you have to open it and fold it back every time you use the phone for anything, including talking on it?
That thing looks so annoying that for now I am just sticking with plugging a cable in whenever I need a charge - even though I already have Qi charging pads everywhere.
I'm using oem qi cover. It works perfectly and keeps the phone waterproof. Can't remember how much I paid for it but not more than $50.
Absolutely must have in the car. I'm using a QI charging car mount. For home - not that important but still very nice.
I can't seem to find any info on how to get wireless charging on the AT&T v10. Every QI sticker I find is incompatible with the AT&T v10. Do I need a pma sticker? Where can I get one of those? https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017SNFGZ0?
Since I didn't get a reply I bit the bullet and bought a wireless charger and a qi sticker. Hopefully it works
Yeah it works i use it on mine. LG actually has an official back cover with the qi / nfc sticker. And there are several aftermarket back covers with it already installed. Just buying the sticker you'll have to remove the old nfc sticker to install the combo one when it gets there. Hope this puts your mind at ease and gives at least a little bit of helpful information
Thank you . I ended up with mixed reviews and these official backs had seemed to have some questionable text on the back of the box.
I bought one off of Amazon. its super easy and simple to install.

Update: the sticker came in today, easy install and it even works with my OtterBox Defender case!
Update #2 the cheap sticker I got caused my phone to stay at a toasty 150°F when idling. To see if it was my phone causing the problem or the sticker I put tape over the connectors and ran it like that for a couple days to confirm that the qi sticker was the issue. So I spent the 60$ on amazon for the "official" back cover. The quality of the text and logos on the packaging is low and the description is for a quick View case. I complained to Amazon saying that I had been sold a fake and requested a refund. Within a hour of that message they refunded me and said I could keep the back cover! As I said it is fake but I have not experienced the same overheating issues and is of exceptional build quality. Honestly it's the best fake I have seen.
Yes but you have to buy the back plate I boughtmine for I think 10.99 and the qi charger was 9 something I spent a total of 25 and it works good long day at work I just toss it on the qi charger and I'm good
This wireless charger is one of today's deals on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Wireless-PowerPort-Charging-Qi-Enabled/dp/B00Y839YMU/ref=dp_ob_title_wld

I was also looking into getting an OEM LG wireless charging back, but I'm not willing to pay $50+ for it.

So i bought the new Wisdom sticker off Amazon. I'll say this--i used a hair dryer as the instruction indicates--and peeled the original NFC only sticker off (or so i thought) and applied the new wisdom. It would register like it was charging but not actually charge as dr_w indicates above.
HOWEVER...frustrated i looked at a couple videos and noticed that the battery doors with the sticker fully removed didn't look like mine. With an exacto knife i picked at the remaining black area only to find there was still copper wire underneath. In effect the original NFC sticker had multiple layers and i'd only peeled off the top. Getting ALL of it up was a challenge...like a real challenge...it did not peel off i had to scrape with a knife for an extended period of time.
At the end of the day though once i had the original sticker all the way off i reapplied the New Wisdom Sticker (which surprisingly survived multiple attempts at reapplying without ill effect). Then setting it on my Spigen charger stand and running the Ampere app i was amazed at how well it was charging. It actually was over 1000ma at one point and after finding it's range (it starts low and builds) it averaged at about 800ma. That was decent enough to charge my phone pretty quick. For reference fast charging is like 1350--1500ma or so. In comparison the Monroy wireless back i bought from Amazon that already had a sticker applied (presumably NOT New Wisdom) typically does maybe 350-500ma.
So the bottom line is it was WAY more of a pain than i anticipated but now i'm stoked and actually rather impressed with the performance.
LEt us know if its consistent. I've had a very similar experience before it began discharging at a rapid rate. Thanks for the post, I'll keep checking back.
Originally had a cheap sticker off eBay that lasted several months, about 3,then the chip in the phone caved out. Got the newisdom the other day and got a Tylt charger to go with 2 Samsung fast chargers and no issues so far. The constant lighting up the phone when it's charged is annoying and the g4 tweaksbox doesn't seem to fix it.
I'm using the OEM LG wireless back and it's quite nice. Feels exactly like the original and fits very flush, no problems with wireless detection on my TYLT charger. I'm actually surprised at how little the back weighs as my understanding is the copper coils should add some noticeable weight but in this case it doesn't. Maybe not that much copper in these OEM backs?
Just ordered an OEM wireless charging back for my V10 (a seller on Amazon has it for $29.99 atm though no prime shipping with the fastest option being expedited shipping) and due to the price, I'd imagine it already being sold out by the time this post is read. I didn't want to get the third party stickers as I want to keep my current back and the third party plastic backs are pretty horrible in terms of feel and fit.
Anyways, what do you guys recommend for a good wireless charging pad? The official Samsung pads look interesting enough as is and I've seen it work with every device with Qi built in or using one of those plug-in Qi pads you place inside a case before the phone though I'm gonna have to wait til my next paycheck to get a pad: already spend a good chunk of cash on an MSI RX 480 and only bought this back due to the steal of a price at $29.99, $36 with expedited shipping. It was that or go with prime and spend $60 on a back
Finally received my OEM wireless back. As expected, the battery door feels exactly like the original back albeit curves near the button cutout due to the extra elevation it adds. Also makes cases a tighter fit if you're concerned about compatibility. Works on my Yootech wireless charger as well as a friend's Samsung wireless charger and Tylt Vu 3, the last two having the best range in terms of surface since the Yootech seems to only have one coil. As for charging, going from 0-100% took about 2-3 hours and the phone got pretty warm too though just a smidgen cooler than it gets when quick charging via cable. The packaging DOES have the description for what would've been a wireless charging variant of the Quickview cover which would attach as a battery door too but I guess that didn't work after all the hullabaloo about the faulty Qi chip. Sucks that the LG logo simply takes place of the rather sexy V10 logo
Either way, I'd recommend getting an OEM back when you can though might wanna wait. Some listing still sell it for $60 a pop and even $100
