Samsung Galaxy A05 Repair Vienna

Most people ask about the screen first, and on the A05 you get to choose: Samsung's Service Pack costs EUR 99, a certified LCD alternative EUR 79. A fresh battery or a new USB-C port is EUR 69 each, while a cracked plastic back is the cheapest bigger job at EUR 59. Lens glass is EUR 35, a clean-out EUR 20, water damage from EUR 49. Six months of warranty are part of every price; camera, speaker and software are quoted once we have looked.

For EUR 99 we fit the original Samsung display from the Service Pack, the part Samsung itself supplies as a replacement. For EUR 79 you get a certified LCD aftermarket screen. Because the A05 has no fingerprint sensor under the glass, you unlock the phone exactly as before with either option. Differences show up in brightness and colour rather than function. More on the A05 screen replacement page.

EUR 69 fixed for a new 5,000 mAh battery, fitted and tested. On the A05 we lift off the plastic back cover, unplug the battery connector and ease the glued-in cell out. It makes sense when the phone shuts down at 20 percent, loses a lot overnight or the back starts to bulge. Details on the A05 battery replacement page.

Samsung announced the Galaxy A05 on 25 September 2023, and it reached shops in mid-October 2023. In autumn 2026 the first units are therefore about three years old. That is exactly the age at which many batteries noticeably fade and the USB-C port has been plugged in thousands of times. We replace either one on the A05 for EUR 69.

The quickest check is Settings, About phone: SM-A055F means A05, SM-A057F means A05s. From the outside, count the rear cameras, two on the A05 and three on the A05s. Only the A05s has a fingerprint sensor in the side key. This matters to us because the screens do not swap between the two, and we order every part by model number.

Four figures matter to us: a 6.7-inch PLS LCD with 720 × 1600 pixels, a 5,000 mAh battery, charging at up to 25 watts over USB-C 2.0 and a plastic back. On top of that come a 50 MP main camera, a 2 MP depth camera and an 8 MP selfie camera in the waterdrop notch. The A05 has neither a fingerprint sensor nor NFC, and Samsung states no IP rating for it.

Not officially. Samsung lists no IP rating for the A05, and its plastic body is only built for everyday splashes. If it went into the sink, the bath or sat in the rain for a while: switch it off straight away, keep the charger away, no rice, no hair dryer. With us the A05 first spends about 48 hours in a cleaning bath, then we test it part by part. Treatment starts at EUR 49.

Collection plus return together start at EUR 17.90; the exact figure depends on your Vienna zone and appears in the booking form. Pick an address and a time window, and we fetch the A05 from there, then drop it back at the same door once it is fixed. For a EUR 69 battery or a EUR 79 aftermarket screen, that mostly makes sense when you would rather not travel yourself.

Sure, from Bregenz to Eisenstadt. After booking, we email you where to send it and how to pack it. The A05 travels switched off, without its case, in a padded box; you cover postage on the way in. We send it back insured. Between posting it and getting it back there are usually two to four working days.

We do not have a workshop with open doors, so turning up on the off chance will not work. If you would still like to hand over your A05 in person, book a drop-off and you get a time slot in the 22nd district. At that time someone is waiting for you, takes a quick look at the damage and takes the phone in for repair.

Yes, the EUR 79 aftermarket screen gets the full six months too, just like the EUR 99 Service Pack, the battery, the charging port and the back cover. If touch dropouts, dead pixels or a fast-draining battery appear within that half year, we put it right at no extra charge. Anything new after the repair, such as another drop or liquid in the phone, is not covered.

For the screen you choose between the Samsung Service Pack at EUR 99 and a certified aftermarket part at EUR 79. For the battery we use the Samsung part with the type designation WT-S-N28 or a tested replacement with 5,000 mAh, depending on availability. Charging board and back cover are ordered to match model number SM-A055F. We always tell you what goes in before the repair.

No need to worry, WhatsApp does not notice the new screen. Chats, pictures and contacts sit in the storage chip on the main board, and we do not work on that for screen, battery, port or back cover jobs. Your A05 comes back with every app, signed in as before. A backup is still wise, because after a drop or water damage nobody knows in advance whether the board was hit too.

It depends on the damage. At launch the A05 cost around EUR 140 according to GSMArena. A EUR 69 battery or a EUR 79 aftermarket screen pays off if everything else works, because you skip buying, setting up and moving your data. If screen and main board are both damaged, we will honestly advise you to get a different phone rather than pay for an expensive repair.

It pays for the detective work when the fault is not obvious. A dark A05 that still buzzes could have a dead panel, a software hiccup or a damaged board, and guessing would cost you more. After checking, we name a fixed price. Say yes to the repair and the 25 EUR is dropped; say no and the diagnostic check is all you pay.
