I'm pretty sure the Sprint version doesn't support wireless charging. What is the best way. A sticker? Would I need to peel off the existing NFC sticker or would just buying a qi backplate from ebay be the better option?

With the stickers you replace the factory one, but I've read stories where you have to make sure the sticker is on perfect or it won't work. The replacement back cover would probably be the easiest way just a lot more expensive.

Buy the sticker from China. It's ten bucks and does both charging and NFC. Works well. Just takes about three weeks to get it.

Can someone throw a link to the "sticker" i bought a qi charging pad on ebay and it cane with a flat reciever with pins u are suppose to lay in and put the battery cover over it for my s5 but it made the battery door bulge out too much for me. It killed the ipc rating because it pushed the gasket away on the battery door

I ordered Style 1 from aliexpress below. It is being delivered today (took two weeks). Apparently the price has gone up $1 since I ordered. I'll let you know how it works when I get home from work and get a chance to try it out.

Can't post links: aliexpress: Factory Direct Wholesale QI wireless charging + NFC IC chip for LG G3 CASE D855 D830 D851 LS990 VS985 F400L F400K F400S support

So far results are not good. The sticker is easy to install, but my cheap QI charger from Amazon is not working with my phone. I need to try a beter wall plug that gives at least 2A. I'll update if I get it working or not.

I was unable to get the Qi sticker from aliexpress to work with my phone. I tried it with two different Qi chargers and 8-10 wall plug/cord combinations. It would recognize the connection but keep giving errors about centering and such. Just to rule it out I tried the sticker from ebay linked above. This new sticker works great with both of the chargers (one of which is the one from amazon linked above) and all of the wall plug/cord combinations I have tried. The phone will even charge wirelessly through my case.
