Samsung Galaxy A05 Charging Port Repair Vienna

Yes, EUR 69 is the fixed price for the new USB-C charging board including opening, fitting and testing charging, data connection and microphone. If we find further damage when opening it, such as corrosion on the main board, we tell you before any further step. Board and fitting are guaranteed for six months, and the 25 EUR diagnostic check is dropped if you have the port replaced.

First try a different cable and a different charger, then restart the A05. Shine a torch into the port: if there is a grey felt of lint at the bottom, it stops the plug from going all the way in. Do not poke around in it with metal. If the cause remains unclear, the 25 EUR diagnostic check finds it, and it is waived on repair.

When the plug no longer clicks fully into place but the contacts are undamaged. Pocket dust compacts at the bottom of the port into a firm layer, which we carefully remove. If the A05 charges reliably again afterwards, it stays at EUR 20. If contacts are bent or tarnished, the new EUR 69 charging board is the lasting solution.

Almost always. In a healthy port the contacts grip the plug all the way round; once they are worn or bent, contact only happens at an angle. That gets worse every day and ruins the plug of your cable along the way. Before we replace the A05 charging board for EUR 69, we check whether the EUR 20 cleaning can still save it.

Quite possibly. On the A05 the USB-C port and the microphone sit on the same small board. If moisture or a knock damages it, both functions often suffer. The new EUR 69 charging board brings a new microphone into the phone as well. After fitting we test charging and a voice recording before the phone goes back.

If cable and charger can do it, yes. The A05 charges at up to 25 watts, and after fitting we plug in exactly such a charger to see the fast-charging message. With the little cube from an old phone it stays at slow charging, even with the new port. That is then not down to the part.

Depending on availability it is the original Samsung part or a tested charging board from another maker, always listed for SM-A055F. You learn before the repair what goes in. The test routine stays the same: charging, fast charging, connection to a PC and microphone must work before the A05 goes back. Part and fitting carry a six-month warranty.

Work on the port takes one to two hours; a simple cleaning is quicker. With pickup in Vienna you usually have the A05 back the next working day, by post in two to four working days. A completely flat battery does not matter: after the swap we charge the phone fully and check that it holds the charge.

Choose drop-off and a time slot in the 22nd district when booking, then hand the A05 over there in person. Bring your charging cable and charger: we plug both in straight away, and that often already shows whether the cable shares the blame. Without a booked slot nobody is on site, as we do not run a workshop with an open door.

Yes, that is what the pickup service is for. After booking we come by at the agreed time, take the A05 with us and deliver it back with a working port. Pickup and return together cost from EUR 17.90, depending on the district. If you suspect the cable or charger as well, add them and we will test them too.

Yes, that is a perfectly normal route for us. After booking you get an email with the address and packing tips. The A05 goes well packed into a box, and you pay the postage on the way in. In the workshop we clean or replace the port, charge the phone and check charging, data and microphone. Insured, it is usually back in Upper Austria after two to four working days.

No. The charging board has nothing to do with storage; photos, contacts and apps stay untouched on the main board. The opposite matters more: if the A05 no longer charges at all, you can only reach your data as long as the battery has some charge left. So book in good time, before it runs completely flat.

Six months of warranty on charging board and fitting. If the plug wobbles again in that period, the A05 does not charge reliably or the microphone fails, we fix it at no cost. Excluded are water damage and mechanical force, for instance when the phone is yanked off the table by the plugged-in cable.

Usually yes, because a faulty port makes an otherwise working phone useless. At launch the A05 cost around EUR 140 according to GSMArena, and a replacement means buying, setting up and moving data. If the EUR 20 cleaning already helps, it is even cheaper. If the battery is also worn out, we give you the total price for both in advance.

Not automatically. If the A05 really did get soaked, power it down and leave the charger out, because it has no IP rating; a cleaning bath of about 48 hours follows, with treatment from EUR 49. If the warning pops up and the phone never touched water, grime or tarnish on the pins is the usual reason, which a EUR 20 clean-out or the EUR 69 board replacement sorts out.
