Usually within one to two hours, with a six-month warranty. Pickup in Vienna, send-in from Austria or drop-off by appointment.
Samsung A05 screen price: Service Pack or aftermarket
A new screen for the Samsung Galaxy A05 costs EUR 99 at Reparo in Vienna with the original Samsung display from the Service Pack, or EUR 79 with a certified LCD aftermarket screen. Both prices are fixed and include the complete unit of glass, touch layer and panel, fitting with fresh adhesive and a test of touch, brightness, front camera and proximity sensor. The 25 EUR diagnostic check is waived on repair.

Signs your A05 needs a new screen
- Cracks in the glass with splinters coming loose
- The screen stays dark, but calls and sounds still come through
- White or coloured patches that appear after a drop
- Touch no longer responds in a strip or a corner
- The picture flickers or goes black after unlocking
Behind the LCD in the A05 sits a backlight. A knock can damage it, and then the picture stays black although the phone is running. Pressure marks, on the other hand, show up as bright patches. Neither gets better on its own. Other faults on the phone are listed in the Galaxy A05 overview.

How the screen replacement on the Galaxy A05 works
First we check whether the screen really is at fault and not just a loose connector. Then we open the plastic back cover, disconnect the battery and release the glued display unit from the frame with heat. After cleaning, we fit the new screen with fresh adhesive and test touch, picture, front camera and proximity sensor. That usually takes one to two hours.
- Findings and choice of part
We check frame, buttons and camera for further drop damage and agree with you on original or aftermarket.
- Open the back, disconnect the battery
The plastic cover comes off, after which the A05 has no power and is safe to work on.
- Swap the screen
Release the old unit with heat, remove adhesive residue, connect and glue in the new screen.
- Test and close
Touch across the whole surface, brightness, front camera, proximity sensor, then the back goes on.
You choose how your A05 reaches us when booking: pickup in Vienna, post or drop-off by appointment in the 22nd district.
Putting EUR 79 or EUR 99 into an A05: the honest maths
At launch in October 2023 the A05 sold for around EUR 140 according to GSMArena, so it is a deliberately affordable phone. A screen for EUR 79 or EUR 99 is still often worth it, because you keep a set-up phone with all your data and lose no time buying and moving over.
| Screen at Reparo | Buying a replacement | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | EUR 79 or EUR 99 | Launch price around EUR 140 |
| Data | stays on the A05 | transfer and new set-up |
| Time | usually 1–2 hours | purchase, delivery, set-up |
| Warranty | 6 months on screen and fitting | manufacturer warranty |
Reference: launch price according to GSMArena; current offers may differ.
If the plastic cover on the back took a hit as well, we do both in one appointment; the back cover costs EUR 59: A05 back cover repair. You get the total price beforehand.
The A05 display: 6.7-inch PLS LCD with HD+
The Galaxy A05 has a 6.7-inch PLS LCD with 720 × 1600 pixels, and the front camera sits in a waterdrop notch at the top centre. Glass, touch layer and panel are bonded together. Replacing only the glass makes no sense, because the panel is almost always damaged when the layers are separated, so we always replace the whole unit.
Why an aftermarket screen works well on the A05
Many newer Samsung models have a fingerprint sensor under the display that only reads reliably through OLED panels. The A05 has no fingerprint sensor at all; you unlock it with a PIN, pattern or password. So an LCD aftermarket screen has no drawback when unlocking. The difference from the original lies in brightness, colour accuracy and how the touch feels.
Does the A05s screen fit?
No. The A05s is the same size but has a Full HD+ panel with 1080 × 2400 pixels and 90 Hz, while the A05 is HD+. We therefore only order screens listed for model number SM-A055F, so picture and touch work without surprises. The sister model: Galaxy A05s screen replacement.
What customers ask about the Samsung A05 screen replacement
Samsung A05 screen replacement: what does EUR 79 or EUR 99 include?
Both fixed prices include the complete display unit of glass, touch layer and LCD panel, opening the A05, fresh adhesive and a test of touch, picture and front camera. At EUR 99 it is the original Samsung display from the Service Pack, at EUR 79 a certified aftermarket part. Either way you get six months of warranty, and the 25 EUR diagnostic check is dropped when the screen is replaced.
Samsung Galaxy A05 original display: how do I recognise the Service Pack?
By the part itself: the Service Pack comes from Samsung in its own packaging with a Samsung part number, and we are happy to show it to you before fitting. In daily use you notice it in strong colours, even brightness and touch that feels exactly as before. If you plan to keep the A05 for a long time, the original at EUR 99 is the safe choice.
Does an aftermarket screen make unlocking the A05 worse?
No, because the A05 has no fingerprint sensor that would have to read through the display. PIN, pattern and password work the same with any panel. An aftermarket screen can be slightly less bright and show colours a little differently. For a second phone or a phone for the kids, the EUR 79 aftermarket screen is therefore usually the sensible pick.
What is broken when the A05 display stays dark but calls still come in?
Usually the LCD backlight or the panel itself, often after a drop. Sometimes only the display connector on the main board has come loose. We open the A05, check the connector first and only then replace anything. If it is seated firmly and the picture stays black, only a new screen for EUR 79 or EUR 99 will help.
Is a new screen the only fix when the A05 touch goes haywire and apps open by themselves?
If touch fails in one area, yes, because touch layer and panel form one unit on the A05. Try a restart first and remove a cracked screen protector. Apps opening by themselves are a typical sign of a crack in the touch layer. The replacement costs EUR 79 with an aftermarket part or EUR 99 with the original.
Can it be the software when the A05 screen stays black after an update?
It can be, especially if a third-party replacement screen was fitted at some point before. It does happen that an aftermarket panel is no longer driven properly after an update. If the A05 vibrates and keeps running in the background, our 25 EUR diagnostic check tests display and software separately. Only then do you decide what gets done.
Can I keep using the A05 with splinters in the glass until my appointment?
Briefly, and carefully. Cover the glass with clear tape so no splinters come loose and you do not cut yourself. If a bright patch grows or touch fails, book soon, because pressure on a broken LCD makes the damage worse. There is no replacement for the glass alone on the A05.
How soon can I use my Samsung A05 again after a screen replacement?
Bench time is one to two hours, because the adhesive has to set briefly after fitting. If we have the Service Pack or the aftermarket screen for the A05 in stock, the phone is usually back the next working day with pickup in Vienna. Sent in, it takes two to four working days. If the original has to be ordered first, you get a date in advance.
Where can I hand over an A05 with a cracked screen in person?
In the 22nd district, by appointment. Choose drop-off in the form along with a free slot. We do not run an open workshop, so without a booking nobody would be there. A tip for the journey: cover the glass with tape so nothing crumbles off and nobody cuts themselves on the edge.
Do you collect an A05 with a broken screen in my district?
Yes, Favoriten just as much as Döbling or Donaustadt. In the form you enter your address and preferred time, we take the A05 with us, and after the screen replacement it comes back to the same door. The form shows what the trip there and back costs for your district before you submit; prices start at EUR 17.90.
How does an A05 with a shattered screen reach you safely by post?
Think rigid and taped. Run parcel tape over every bit of cracked glass first; that keeps the shards in place on the journey. Then power the A05 down, wrap it in bubble wrap and choose a cardboard box rather than a soft mailer, which would let the LCD flex. Our address comes with the booking email. You pay postage to us, and we handle the insured return.
Do I need to back anything up before a screen replacement on the A05?
It is not required. The storage sits on the main board and is not touched during a screen replacement; you neither reset nor set up the A05 again, it starts exactly as before. A backup to Google or Samsung Cloud is still sensible in case the drop also hit something inside.
What happens if my new A05 screen shows bright clouds weeks later?
Then send it to us or book an appointment, because the new screen carries a six-month warranty, as a EUR 99 Service Pack or a EUR 79 aftermarket part. Bright clouds at the edge, dead pixels, touch that drops out or a frame that lifts: we fix it at no extra charge. A new drop or pressure from a back pocket is not covered.
Is EUR 79 for a new A05 screen not too expensive?
Measured against the launch price of around EUR 140 according to GSMArena, it is a noticeable sum. It pays off if battery and port are still good and you want to keep your set-up. If you also need a EUR 69 battery, we add it up for you and say openly when a different phone makes more sense.
What should I do if liquid got under the cracked A05 glass?
Speed matters now: switch the A05 off and keep it away from the charger and the radiator. Through the crack in the glass, water reaches the display connector and the main board directly, and the A05 has no IP rating to slow it down. With us it first goes into a cleaning bath for about 48 hours. Treatment starts at EUR 49; the new screen goes in only once the board is clean.
