How does the Galaxy S10 back cover replacement work at Reparo?
- Intake diagnosis of the back cover damage
Your Galaxy S10 is checked for the type and extent of the damage: just the back cover? Camera lens also affected? Qi coil reachable? We document with photos and make a concrete plan.
- Remove the back cover under controlled temperature
The glass adhesive frame is warmed to around 70 °C - with a precision heating mat, not a hot-air dryer. The defective back cover comes off evenly without pressure on the frame.
- Remove the old part + adhesive residue
The broken glass is fully removed, glass splinters in the frame are taken out. Old adhesive is loosened with isopropanol 99 and special spatulas - without scratching the aluminium frame.
- Check the camera lens + Qi coil
On the Galaxy S10 the camera lens glasses and the wireless charging coil sit under the back cover. We check both for damage, replace if needed (clarified separately) and put them back in their original position.
- Bond the new back cover professionally
The OEM replacement part is fixed to the frame with Samsung original adhesive strips. Defined contact pressure, 30 minutes of curing time - the sealing values are then back to factory level.
- Final test + quality assurance
Wireless charging test (if the model supports it), camera test shots, fit check on the frame, back visual inspection. You get your Galaxy S10 back looking like new.
Without a walk-in counter, hand-over works via pickup service, mail-in or a booked drop-off slot in the 22nd district.

Frequently asked questions about the Galaxy S10 back cover replacement
What does the back cover replacement cost on the Galaxy S10 in Vienna?
Replacing the Galaxy S10 back cover costs €139 fixed price at Reparo in Vienna. Included in the price: the original or OEM back cover replacement part (glass), new adhesive strips for the IP68 frame, Qi coil checked, calibration and 6 months warranty. The diagnostic check (25 EUR) is waived on repair.
Why does the back cover break so easily on the Galaxy S10?
The Galaxy S10 back cover is a material compromise between hardness and weight - a glass back with chemical hardening (Gorilla Glass or similar). The glass withstands everyday scratches, but in impact drops on edges it still breaks. Typical triggers: a fall from the trouser pocket onto tiles, an edge on a kerb, pressure from objects shifting in the car. The replacement is usually faster and cheaper than buying new.
Which symptoms do customers bring us with the Galaxy S10 back cover?
Most common on the Galaxy S10: a glass back with cracks or a loosening adhesive seam after years. Sometimes the camera lens in the back cover is also broken - then we replace it as part of the back cover replacement or check the camera sensor separately. Every symptom is recorded precisely in the diagnosis before replacement parts are ordered.
Does more than just the glass need to be replaced on the Galaxy S10?
With cracks only in the back glass, replacing the back cover unit including the adhesive frame is usually enough. But if the drop also hit the camera module, the Qi coil or the frame, we check these components in the diagnosis (25 EUR, waived on repair) and give you a clear quote before we work. On the Galaxy S10: we install nothing that isn't necessary.
Does the display get damaged during the Galaxy S10 back cover replacement?
No. Unlike the battery replacement, with the back cover we go into the device from the back - the display stays completely untouched. We warm the adhesive frame to 70-80 °C with a special heating mat, release the defective glass with flat carbon spudgers and bond the new part. Your Galaxy S10 screen stays as it was.
Does the IP68 water protection stay intact on the Galaxy S10 after the back cover replacement?
Yes. With every back cover replacement we renew the complete IP68 adhesive frame all around. After professional installation your Galaxy S10 reaches the same water and dust protection as from the factory again - brief immersion up to 1.5 m depth, 30 minutes. We generally do not recommend active diving or swimming after housing interventions.
Does wireless charging work after the back cover replacement on the Galaxy S10?
Yes. The Qi charging coil of the Galaxy S10 sits right behind the back cover - during the replacement we re-insert the coil and then check whether charging works at the original speed. If the coil was damaged by the drop, it is replaced separately (cost after diagnosis). Without additional damage, wireless charging works as before after the replacement.
How long does the Galaxy S10 back cover replacement take at Reparo?
The pure working time on the Galaxy S10 is around 60-90 minutes. The total turnaround is 1-2 working days, because the new adhesive frame needs around 30 minutes of curing time before the device can be delivered back. We stock replacement parts for the most common Samsung models, with special colours 1 working day for procurement can be added.

Yes. For the Galaxy S10 our courier drives Monday to Friday to all 23 Vienna districts. You book a pickup window online (9-18), we collect the device from you at home or in the office, and deliver it back after 1-2 working days. Courier costs are included in the €139 fixed price - no extra fee.
Can I send in the Galaxy S10 from the provinces?
Yes. Customers from Graz, Salzburg, Linz, Innsbruck, Bregenz, Klagenfurt or St. Pölten send the Galaxy S10 in insured by post.

Is any data lost during the Galaxy S10 back cover replacement?
No. We only work on the housing - the mainboard, storage, SIM card and Samsung account are not disconnected. Photos, apps, Wi-Fi passwords and settings stay fully intact. We still recommend a Samsung Cloud backup before every repair (free, 5 minutes via the Samsung account settings).
Original Samsung back cover or aftermarket on the Galaxy S10?

How long is the warranty on the new Galaxy S10 back cover replacement?
Six months on material and installation. If the new part comes away from the frame in that time or shows manufacturing cracks, we replace it free of charge. Not covered: new drop damage, water damage from improper use or mechanical impact on the new glass. The warranty is valid across Austria.
Is the back cover replacement on the Galaxy S10 worth it at all?

The replacement keeps the device looking like new - and the Galaxy S10 hardware keeps working for years. Buying new is only worth it if several components are defective at the same time.
