- Photos show stripes or a colour cast — sensor electronics disrupted

How we replace the Galaxy A55 5G camera
- Module diagnosis per lens
Each camera module of the Galaxy A55 5G is tested individually — main camera, ultra-wide, macro. A single-module swap is usually possible and saves money.
- Open the back
The back of the Galaxy A55 5G is carefully warmed and released — on A-premium models the housing is often plastic with Gorilla Glass at the front.
- Remove the faulty module
Disconnect the flex cable from the mainboard, take out the module, clean the contacts, remove the old adhesive strips.
- Fit the replacement module
An OEM-compatible module is installed, the flex connected, OIS (where present) calibrated via software.
- Function test of all modes
Autofocus, macro, portrait, flash — every function is checked on the Galaxy A55 5G before it goes back.
Repairing the Galaxy A55 5G camera in Vienna — process, price, sense
The Galaxy A55 5G positions itself in the upper mid-range — a solid camera, good image quality for the price. If the 50 MP triple camera with OIS fails, the module replacement at Reparo costs €59. Ultra-wide €69, front camera €59. A comparable new A5x/A7x device costs €400–550 — the repair price is around one sixth of that.
Two hours of workshop time, courier in Vienna, insured shipping from the provinces — return shipping included. The diagnostic 25 EUR is waived as soon as you confirm the order.
When a single module, when replace all?
Usually only one lens is affected. The macro or depth sensor can fail on its own without the main camera being affected. And vice versa. As a rule we only replace what is actually faulty. All Galaxy A55 5G repairs at a glance: overview.
A new Galaxy A55 5G at €450, a module swap for €59 — the maths is clear as long as the device otherwise runs cleanly. For devices over four years old with other weak components we openly advise considering a used successor model.
Frequently asked questions about the Galaxy A55 5G camera repair
What does the camera repair cost for the Galaxy A55 5G?
Replacing the main camera on the Galaxy A55 5G costs €59 at Reparo in Vienna, including the module, fitting, function test and six months warranty. The ultra-wide module costs €69. Front camera €59. The diagnostic 25 EUR is waived on repair.
What is the difference between camera and camera glass on the Galaxy A55 5G?
The camera glass is only the protective lens cover — replacement €19.90 per glass. The camera itself is the module with the sensor, OIS and lens — replacement on the Galaxy A55 5G €59. The diagnosis brings clarity: often a glass swap is enough, with a genuine sensor defect the module replacement is needed.
How long does the Galaxy A55 5G camera repair take?
The module replacement on the Galaxy A55 5G takes around two hours in the workshop. With pickup in Vienna you usually get the device back the same or next day. With shipping from the provinces, plan one to three working days including transport.
Why does my Galaxy A55 5G camera no longer focus?
The most common causes: OIS motor faulty after a drop, worn autofocus drive, loose sensor flex cable or moisture in the module. On the Galaxy A55 5G our diagnosis shows in under 30 minutes exactly which component needs replacing — the €59 fixed price is confirmed beforehand.
Why does the Galaxy A55 5G camera show only a black image?
A black image despite an open camera app usually means: the sensor is dead or the data bus between the sensor and the mainboard is interrupted. A software reset helps in under 10 % of cases. On the Galaxy A55 5G we replace the complete module — €59 — after which the camera is fully functional again.
Why does the main camera of my Galaxy A55 5G rattle?
Yes. The Galaxy A55 5G has an OIS stabiliser that compensates the camera against slight shake. After a drop the magnets in the suspension shift — the module rattles audibly. A swap for €59 fixes it completely.
What does the ultra-wide swap cost on the Galaxy A55 5G?
The ultra-wide of the Galaxy A55 5G costs €69 to replace. The module can be swapped separately if the main camera is intact — saving significantly compared to a full array swap.
Can the zoom/tele camera on the Galaxy A55 5G be replaced individually?
The Galaxy A55 5G has no standalone tele-zoom. For zoom shots the digital crop of the main camera is used.
What does the front camera swap cost on the Galaxy A55 5G?
We replace the front camera of your Galaxy A55 5G for €59. The job takes about an hour — selfie cameras are usually less involved than rear cameras because the access is more direct.
Can I drop my Galaxy A55 5G off for the camera repair directly in Vienna?
No. Turning up unannounced does not work because nobody is on site without a booking, but a booked drop-off slot in the 22nd district does. You book an appointment online, the courier collects the Galaxy A55 5G from you in Vienna or you send it in insured from a province. No spontaneous drop-in is possible.
How does the pickup service for the Galaxy A55 5G camera repair in Vienna work?
You book online, the courier collects your Galaxy A55 5G and brings it to the workshop — everything included in the €89 fixed price.
Are my photos retained during the Galaxy A55 5G camera swap?
Yes. During the module swap the Galaxy A55 5G is not reset — photos, apps, settings and the Samsung account are all retained. The camera hardware is separate from the storage. We still recommend a backup in general before handing in any device for repair.
How long is the warranty on the new Galaxy A55 5G camera?
Reparo gives six months warranty on the new camera module and the fitting on the Galaxy A55 5G. If a sensor or OIS defect occurs within the warranty period, we replace it free of charge. New drop damage is not covered.
Is there camera repair for the Galaxy A55 5G nearby?
Reparo is located at Dr.-Natterer-Gasse 4a/Top 57, 1020 Vienna (Leopoldstadt) — right in the centre. We work without shop access, but with an included courier pickup service in all 23 Vienna districts. From the provinces your Galaxy A55 5G comes in by insured shipping — the return trip is included.
Is the camera swap on the Galaxy A55 5G worth it, or rather a new device?
A new Galaxy A55 5G is €400–550. The module swap for €59 is a fraction of that. As long as the display, battery and housing of your Galaxy A55 5G are still in good shape, the repair is almost always worth it. For a Galaxy device older than five years we honestly say in the diagnosis whether repair or a used successor is the better choice.
