Guys it was found that in unboxing the device, a charging dock was present as well which is a nice addition with the regular handsfree and charger provided and the box weighed in a pretty hefty 450 grams too! The box pack was unveiled as well showing the inners of the box with the magnificient beast in between! But the dock may not be present in all markets as always! But the glaring omission was not providing an HDMI(MHL) cable or whatever! What do you think guys? Should Sony should provide the dock for all markets?
if it will make the price higher even a little then I don't need it
I'll be buying the dock separately, the NTT Docomo inclusion is obviously by special arrangement and i'm sure it's factored into the cost.

Ha ha, if they include it for sure and if you'll have to comply with the prices, then what will you be doing?

Good question... I guess I'll be selling the dock on garage sale.
That would be awesome
It would be awesome if it were included... All of my phones I previously had, had worn usb ports after little over a year... especially the fact that the port here is covered by a flap to keep it waterproof makes me want a chargingdock. I have already been looking for it online, but cannot find it anywhere, nor is it listed as an accesory on the Sony site, though it has been introduced together with the phone. I truly hope it wil be included.

Oh my... As expected, the dock is not bundled and has to be bought separately! Only the screen protector has been added as an extra accessory!

hey, does anyone know where I can get the European (not UK) prongs for the OEM HTC adapter? I don't need the whole adapter, just the part that slides in and out. I'd prefer a US located business, but if anyone can provide a link to where I can buy this, that would be awesome.
http://www.travisgarrison.org/temp/adapter.jpg
I have not done a search for these, so I do not know if they are available, but my suggestion is just buy a standard USB plug charger with the pins you want, it will probably be easier to find in the US and a lot cheaper than a HTC plug.
Same voltage.
Amazon do them, but you can probably find cheaper elsewhere.
http://www.amazon.com/International...e=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1274803914&sr=8-2
Yeah, that's what I'll do if I can't find what I'm looking for but I'd much rather prefer the interchangeable route.
You could try one like this..
http://www.pangadgets.com/proddetail.php?cat=7&prod=MCWOADUSB&gclid=CLX5waql76ECFVVo4wodo3JFIg
It can be used worldwide, and as spare at home
Thanks everyone for all the helpful suggestions, but I'm really just looking for that specific part. I already have lots of alternatives if I'm unable to find it.
When I saw the plug that came with the HD2 I thought it was a great idea - the same adapter for everyone, and just swappable pins. Was a little disappointed there was no euro/US pins also in the box - that would have added, what, 5p maybe to the price?
Even more disappointing if they don't sell just the pin parts separately.
Only solution I know is to get the official htc travel pack you can find it here.
The eu plug will be inside there. Of course also the us and australian and a case and a charger and cable as well. In my opnion a bit overpriced. But the only solution I know.

item in post #4 above is cheaper, does the same job, and I am sure you could get a set on ebay even cheaper.

the item above is exactly what I'm looking for. I don't think you're understanding that the point I'm trying to make is that I don't want the whole charger but just to find the prongs that slide in and out. Yes, you're right that the OEM knock-offs will do the job, and are much cheaper, but that's not what I asked for.
With that said, I'm certainly not paying the price they are asking for the travel kit. I may be picky but I'm not as stupid as HTC seems to think their customers are.
I am also looking for this "HTC EU Plug for TC P300 International Travel Charger" (this was the description that I came up with)..
Thanks to czacha234 I found the plug adapter!
http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=181506
I called the USA branch of expansys and they ordered it for me. It was $8.99. Kinda spendy but way better than the 40+ that people are charging for the whole kit.

Hello everybody, I've had my T879 Note since December and now my charging port is broken. Word of advice dont let you kids play with your phone while its on the charger.
I found the replacement part, but was wondering if I could use one lets say from the i717 or from similer models. Pictures of the part looks the same for all the devices just that they are branded different. Would it matter?

So I ended up buying a new charging port from etradesupply, was shipped from china to my house in about 3days. Cost $10 another $14 for standard shipping. Very easy to install about 5-10mins.
Thks for follow up. Good to know

This is good to know. My wife's GNote just broke and stumble upon your question here while browsing for unrelated subject. I will definitely check out your research.
I saw on Aliexpress two shops which offers the wireless charging sticker.
One shop is a pre order.
And the other is combined with the NFC chip. So you have to remove the original one. Which I don't like to do.
that great news...
Do you happen to know if the wireless charging is working with a case like otterbox on?
Sorry I don't know I haven't ordered them.
I think I am not allowed to place links.... So just search Aliexpress on "lg g4 wireless"
It's only a matter of time before options start at the market. This is just one.

Oh I don't know on that as I would never buy a model with NFC. I would only buy a wireless charge only.
These phones are barely just released and not even in the USA.
In the coming weeks or month, there will be more than 1 QI sticker to select from was my point.
Just ordered it.... So we will see.

Very cool... I look forward to reading what you say. So you did the preorder QI sticker only, or you did the Qi+NFC sticker?
I found this one on aliexpress but I wont have a G4 for a week or two so i don't know if its compatible with the US one, I know the G3 had 2 (well 3 if you count AT&T) different pin outs i'm not sure if the G4 is the same
Good finds... people need to keep posting them when they find them. I have an alert setup on ebay to email me if something comes up so I fully expect to see them on ebay soon as well.
I ordered this one. Wireless Charging Receiver NFC IC Chip for LG G4 Battery Housing Back Cover Case-T01
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wire...-Housing-Back-Cover-Case-T01/32357030303.html

Depends on the thickness. In theory, the more obstruction the worse the charging is going to be until it just doesn't work. A strong charger should work with the case, based off previous phones.
Hasn't anyone tried ripping out the QI/NFC sticker from a Quick Circle case and putting in a standard G4 back? Expensive option i know but at least it's an oem sticker.

Bad news, the magnets in the QI charger for the Nexus 5 and 7 seem to make the LG G4 think that the quick circle is closed, so you cannot interact with the phone.
Even more bad news is that I couldn't get my quickcircle case to charge, either something is faulty or LG need to enable it with a software update.
They are two versions of the quickcircle by the looks of it, CFR-100 and CFV-100. It looks like CFR may be Korea only and will not work with the H815. You can see product listings like in post 11 state compatibility with the F500 but not H815.

did you purchase one of the stickers from aliexpress? the listings seem to indicate compatibility with both F500 and H815. im confused by your post, i was under the impression no official wireless accessories have been made for the G4 yet but it sounds like you have a case?
I bought a quickcircle case of eBay, seems to be the official case.
In the UK the quickcircle case can be purchased off eBay and many official outlets now.
The pins on the back cover matchup with the phone so I'm not sure what's going on, I'm still waiting on a reply from the seller.
Just ordered 2 of these. Hope they fit tmo usa! 94 available! Hurry before their gone! lol Somebody here will probably buy all of them.

Sure but all parts inside like speakers, headphones port etc. are removed. I checked local post and if they accept it as letter not package, shipping will cost around 5$. I can give You frame that looks like new for another 5$.

well, i was trying to prey under the LCD , excited for replacing the new frame that i'd get from you, but the lcd cracked, i think i didn't heat up well. i know using a hairdryer was not the right solution, so i checked the prices of LCD's and it's too much to invest for a replacement, so i decided to let go about it... well the PCB is still functional and i'd sell it for you, but i need to check how much the shipping fees, if you wait me until monday because the postal office doesn't work tomorrow, then i let you know. concerning the price of the mainboard, since you were generous with me i would ask you to suggest a price and i'd sell it for you
until then, wait a respond from me for shipping and all stuff
thanks for all and sorry for my late responds. just busy at work!

I have a samsung galaxy note 9 on sprint currently, the phone was dropped and smashed but not too a unrepairable extent. I currently put a new battery, charger port, and wireless coil. The phone won't charge still unless I use my s20 ultra as a wireless charger which says its charging but I cannot get a light, vibration, or any screen activity so I'm guessing the motherboard is most likely toast. There is no water damage and I will be replacing the screen glass I was hoping I could get a image before I ordered one lol but the real question is the phone is on sprint I was wondering if I can purchase a N960F international model motherboard and use it in the N960u shell. I want exynos for the simplicity of rooting. Also The charger port I installed was off ifixit and labeled for the n960u, n960f, n960fd but read somewhere there's a difference in charging ports? Any information is greatly appreciated. This phone will most likely be used on AT&T
Does anybody have any insight on this issue?
I you dropped and made damage anything, i guess you might have the same issues, but otherwise if motherboard fits in place correctly it should work, the F variant is exynos ad should work with all networks, and sure you can root it.
No guarentee it will be a pin for pin swamp or that the subassembly components/firmware will be compatable.
I think it's unlikely to work.
You need someone that did it to know for sure otherwise it could be a big lick on you. Even if it's possible no guarantee the replacement mobo is good or won't be damaged during installation (think ESD). If you had all the major components you have little to lose otherwise you might be kicking a dead horse.
With that much damage buying a working one with the right configuration be a better bet...

I'm sure to be careful with my electronics, but you are right. Looking at tons of pictures the motherboards seem identical in size, all the parts I bought said they were compatible with both models ill be using all n960u parts other than the motherboard. I read somewhere the charger flex is different but I can't see or find any ones that are different, also same for the cameras. This will be a pretty sweet experiment I guess. If they screen works the cracks in the display aren't too bad that it wouldn't be usable. I'd save about 80$ (if I don't buy a bdot replacement) all in all spending about 200$ in replacement parts. Not too bad if you ask me. Considering it's my gfs old phone that she didn't end up paying off since it broke I don't think it'll be a bad deal
I'll be sure to update any progress I have the motherboard will be in around the 15th of march
I changed my mind, perhaps rubber conectors are different?

Screen, camera or USB connection cable might be different size or location.
Boards may look same but their functionality may differ as both boards have different CPUs. snapdragon variat have FM radio enabled so 3.5mm jack may have different port configuration same goes with cameras and so on..... Best is to buy a exynos variant F model.
