[Q] import backplate for wireless charging? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I don't think anyone has looked into this yet, but does anyone know if we would be able to import a European backplate in order to enable wireless charging on the US versions? If the quick circle case is all that's needed to enable it I would think that this is another solution as well for those of us that aren't interested in that case.
I'm waiting on my Verizon version and if one of these OEM backplates could be purchased for cheap on ebay.co.uk or a similar site I'd be willing to test this as an option.

I briefly looked into it, starting with how much it would cost me, but when I saw they were going for $60 on eBay, I gave up. LOL!

Holy balls! So not worth it!!

The charging contacts are in different locations on the international version than the Korean and US versions so it will not work. We have to wait. ?

You don't have the sticker on yours? Should be the right of the headphone jack. Do you have the T-Mobile version?
EDIT: Yikes that was a pain to get off with no nails, Thank you guys!

Oh man, no way. You got a sticker?? I'm so jealous.
Removed it as soon as I got the phone, though I'll admit that I probably would've kept it on for a lot longer if it was an Exynos sticker since it sounds so much cooler

Wireless charging cover

Has anyone tried wireless charging via back cover like this one:

Anyone found another method? Puzzled that Samsung hasn't come up with the 'official' solution.
the tmobile version had a problem with wireless charging though the international version of the note 2 works perfectly fine

This would be really great if they also sold an external battery charger. Had one for my last phone and it was great always having a charged spare.

It's intended for the stock battery. I'd be worried about using a third party battery with it, though. Maybe I'm just a pansy. I know it's in LG's best interest to say it, but it says it's only compatible with OEM batteries.
I got a spare OEM from Korea and works perfect. I am guessing it was for Korean model.

I was able to check in at a Tmobile in San Jose. This was 2-3 weeks ago. I got the S-View case for 30% off. When the Tmobile guy tried to enter the Foursquare code, it wouldn't take. He had to manually go in and give me the 30% discount.

Those are the best answers above. There is no selling/buying/trading on XDA otherwise. Not sure if there are any good sales listed in Member Found Deals section of XDA.. but since you are looking for a Sprint Note 4 your avenues for new are limited.
