I have.
I suppose it depends on the case though.
Yes. Works fine with the diztronic tpu, and ringke slim. Sometimes depends on how good the charger is though...
Yeah, mine works fine with a Spigen Neo Hybrid and the Tylt Vu charger.
Depends on the case and charger design, as in how thick the coating plastic is on the charging pad, and how thick the case is.
I have this VENA Ultra Slim Fit case (much like the Griffin case I had on my Moto X 2013) and have had no problem charging with the Anker slim Qi charger. I love both of them, they're great. I'm actually thinking about making my own nano suction car dock with it.
THanks for the replies guys. Has anyone tried with a Ringke slim?

Works perfectly with my Spigen Ultra Slim Fit.

Was already mentioned that they had earlier in the thread, but also so have I
Yes I did, because I answered that exact question above...
Which qi pad are y'all using?
No problems here with Spigen Slim Armor and Itian A6 (at work) and "TechMatte Qi-Enabled Charging Pad" (at home), both of them works great!

Tylt Vu now but also have a Nokia DT-901
Had the nexus charger that works great with the n5 but it's crap with the nexus 6. Now have the tylt vu which works great with the casemate case on the play store
I have a moco case, thick rugged case 2 piece with a kickstand. and a nokia DT-900 charger. Works great. Charger was bought for my n4 long time ago and didn't work with it. Tossed it in a drawer as I haven't had an induction phone since then. Must have been the n4 because I was pleasently surprised to see how well it works with the N6. Has to b on it pretty much just right, but i hit it easily. Kind of a pain when it hits 100% for a bit. Turns off charging, drops to 99% as soon as it shuts off and toggles on and off a bit till it gets a good enough charge to hang at a full charge. Notification alerts each time it stops and starts charging.

Ok, so I have my brand new G2. Looking at cases, but have to be cautious because I plan to pick up a QI charging pad very soon. How thick is too thick? This is a VZW phone by the way.
I'm looking at the two piece snap together cases on ebay like this: LINK
Reason being is I plan to cover the case in white 3M Di-Noc (carbon fiber pattern).
Thoughts? Recommendations on a thin hard case that covers all four corners and edges that won't block the inductive charging?
Wife and I both have the Verizon G2 and we both have cases. I have the Incipio Feather and she has the Diztronic tpu case. Both phones charge just fine on two different qi chargers(Nokia dt-910 and LG wcp-300).

I am very impressed with the fit and quality of the Puregear Case. Also if you enter Pure50 in the coupon code spot its 50% off bringing it to like $12.50 shipped. I wrapped the clear portion of mine with carbon vinyl as well.
http://www.pure-gear.com/slim-shell-case-for-lg-g2.html
Also for wireless charging I am very impressed with the Tylt Vu. Have them around my house for my G2, my Nexus 7 and my Droid Maxx. It works flawlessly on each of them and places them at an angle so you can see them. Hope that helps a little.

You don't have to worry about that case you linked as it seems it's pretty thin; judging from the back shot, it looks to be as thick as my Diztronic case and that charges fine with Qi chargers. With that said, the Diztronic is only like 10 bucks and it's a well-made case. Though, that ebay one is cheaper and it wouldn't hurt to try it out. I tend to change cases/screen protectors a lot until I find one that I like, and the money spent really isn't an issue for me as long as it makes me happy.
I heard somewhere that you have a few CM's on clearance for the Qi charging to work, and I doubt that a case would be that thick unless you got some Otterbox or something.
I have the Incipio DualPro and wireless charging works fine on the Nokia DT-900 (picked up a few when they were on sale at AT&T).
My G2 will.charge through a magazine. As long as it's not metal you should be fine.

I like the feel of the S6 a lot and I do not want to loose that with a full case. I would like to protect it for a bad drop mostly the camera. Thinking a bumper case might work best. I also want a case where I can still use my wireless charging with out taking off the case. Is there a good quality bumper case out there yet that fits the build?

I've got the Spigen Slim Armor case, with a generic wireless sticker and have no issues with wireless charging with either my Itian 3 coil charger or generic puck.
Youd have better answers to the question, "which dont don't work with qi".
Because most will

Interesting. I have the Diztronic case you're talking about and the same charger, but a Yootech receiver. It works fine without the case but won't charge with the case. I've also tried the first version of the Samsung charging pad and it's the same result so I guess I can call it the receiver.

I have no problems using the CHOE Stadium Qi Wireless Charger with the Diztronic case either. I purchased my QI wireless sticker from ebay. Shipped from china or something, not sure on brand.
Any leather back-cover (like the original one) that works with QI charging WITHOUT needing to make the "sticker modification" to the shell?
If not, what is in Your opinion the best wireless QI charging sticker for LG G4?
Thx!

this combo did NOT work: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NWMI07S with http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V51QOXA. its VERY finiky

As far as I know there is no official leather cover with qi. Nevertheless you can buy some from china with attached sticker.
I've attached a sticker on my own leather cover and it worked approx. 2 days perfect. But since then no connection and I wasn't able to fix.
Qi charging lg g4
I just cut the front door off a quick circle case and put g4 in a bumper case. Works fine. Better than messing with qi stickers
i got one of these..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151745479...49&var=450942342923&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT works perfect surprisingly and only £7
I have a Otter Commuter case https://www.amazon.com/OtterBox-Com...8&qid=1464832541&sr=8-4&keywords=otter+box+g4 works fine and very heavy duty, dropped many times with no problem for phone. 2 pieces.
Just got my first UAG case.. This is really excellent quality and perfect fitment. Thinner than I expected and look fantastic.
Enjoy, just got mine yesterday and I love it. wish the area by the charger port could be a little more sturdy but its okay, still a beast case. Pair this with my tempered glass and I'm good to go.

With the cases thickness I was wondering how it would play with wireless chargers. I plan on getting the Samsung fast wireless pad and hopefully it works well with that.
Are there any cases besides the sold out Pitaka one that support both features?
XVIDA StickyPad compatible with most cases

Apologies for the long reply...
You can check out XVIDA. I use the XVIDA Car Mount and an XVIDA StickyPad. (Note the XVIDA StickyPad works with the phone naked or with a smooth back case)
The are three variants. Suction Cup, Air Vent, and CD Slot Mount.
I also use their Desk Mount and Mountable Pad.
I am not sure if the XVIDA StickyPad is compatible with the Pitaka case. I am curious to know though. I have an X-Doria Galaxy Note 8 Case Defense Lux Carbon Fiber case, XVIDA StickyPad, Case friendly 0.33mm dot matrix tempted glass protector, and a uh ring finger thing. I like how the Pitaka case looks not sure about drop protection.
This case and screen protector combo has saved from a weird drop. Flying out of my hands screen first unto the metal protusions of a shopping cart. Broken screen protector near the Iris scanner and bottom near the default location of the back button. Screen was saved with no scratches or anything. I panicked though since this was just 3 days from my purchase.
Note:
If the Note 8 case isn't smooth you need to use stronger double sided adhesives.

I already have 2 scosche magnetic car mounts, so I was hoping for a solution that used those...that stickypad sounds like it might work, though, if there aren't any other options.

Oh sadly the Scosche Magnetic Car Mounts won't work. The magnets have to be around the qi wireless charging transmitter on the mount. Magnets and metal interferes with Qi wireless charging. In fact Qi wireless charging also slightly interferes with the S-Pen when using a wireless charging powerbank. I even got a notification pop-up stating that.
Mophie also has a solution but I don't want a battery case.

Hrm, yeah the mophie also isn't water resistant. Wonder if the Pitaka really is the only solution for the time being...? Too bad so many people seem to be having customer support issues with them!
I have a Pitaka case and it is the only one that works with mag mounts and wireless charging. I think Pitaka is just overwhelmed with orders. Before I got this case I had to use a metal plate a small one and put it on the outside of my case all the way up by the camera for it to work with my wireless charger. It looks horrible but it worked. So when I heard about Pitaka I jumped on it fast. I ordered mine and the car mount and I received it in about 8 days. I would just keep checking back with them. It is well worth it.
Actually.. I did a slight modification to my spiegen, and it does both.. The only thing I did was cut one of the round magnets in half, and then, placed it in the normal indention for the magnet.. And I have used it now, for at least a good month without issue.. I also turn the phone landscape on the charging stand sometimes to watch a video while charging...

If you are willing to pay the price. Mophie's Charge Force line has this.

Are you saying that you cut the round metal plate in 1/2 and only using half of the metal plate on the top part of the case cut out to provide more room for the wireless charging magnets?

I think your complicating it in your head, more than it really is, in action.. Visualize what I wrote, and then, look at the two pieces that I linked to.. And it will come to you.. You honestly just cutting the magnet (plate) in half and sticking it in the case indention that is already there.. Versus using the whole thing.. It's really, truly not technical at all..

No problem.. Hopefully it helped.. I just thought to myself when I got the 8 that there has to be an easier way to solve this..

Am I the only one that doesn't use the metal plate the mount comes with? It just sticks to my phone without having to use a metal disc. I'm using a sosche magnetic mount, same story with my previous s7e and s8+, granted I am using one of the super thin peel case.
