When a new back cover makes sense on the A06
- Cracks run from a corner across the cover
- A piece of plastic has broken out around the camera
- The cover has come away from the frame at the edge
- Dust gets into the housing through a gap
- The case no longer fits properly because of a dent
A cracked plastic cover looks harmless, but it lets dust and moisture into the A06, and the phone has no certified splash protection to begin with. If the cover lifts without a drop, a swollen battery is often the cause, and then the battery needs replacing first. More fault patterns are on the Galaxy A06 overview.
How we renew the back cover on the A06
The back cover of the Galaxy A06 is glued all round to the plastic frame. We warm it evenly so the adhesive softens and separate it along the edge with a thin film, without reaching the ribbon cables underneath. Once the frame is bare, we check the battery for a bulge and seat the new cover on a fresh bead of adhesive. It cures under pressure.
- Inspection
We check whether only the cover is affected or a swollen battery is behind it.
- Releasing the cover
Heat softens the adhesive, then a film frees the cover bit by bit.
- Preparing the frame
Remove adhesive residue, clean the camera area, check the battery for swelling.
- Rebonding
Fit the new cover, press it on, let it cure, then test camera and buttons.
For the new cover your A06 comes to us by courier in Vienna, by post from anywhere in Austria or at a booked drop-off slot in the 22nd district.
Back cover, camera glass or battery?
Three cases are common on the A06. If only the small glass over the two lenses is cracked, replacing the camera glass for EUR 35 is enough. If the plastic cover is cracked or broken out, we replace it for EUR 59. And if the cover lifts by itself, the battery is usually behind it and has to be replaced first.
| New back cover | Camera glass only | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | EUR 59 | EUR 35 |
| When | cracks, broken-out pieces, loose cover | crack only over the lenses |
| Duration | approx. 1 hour | approx. 1 hour |
| Warranty | 6 months | 6 months |
If both are broken, we tell you the total price before the repair.
If the battery is what pushes the cover up, the replacement costs EUR 69: Samsung A06 battery replacement. We do both in one appointment, and the phone is only opened once.
Plastic instead of glass: the back of the A06
On the Galaxy A06 the back cover and frame are plastic; only the front is glass. That keeps the phone light, 189 grams at 6.7 inches, and safe from shards. Plastic forgives small drops better than glass, but it cracks at the corners and around the camera cut-out when the A06 lands on an edge.
Is the A06 sealed after the replacement?
From the factory the A06 has no IP rating; only the 5G version is tested to IP54. We bond the new cover all round, which protects well against dust and a few drops in daily life. We cannot promise water resistance either before or after opening, because Samsung never stated it for this model.
Does a cover from the A06 5G fit?
We only fit back covers listed for model number SM-A065F. The A06 5G carries the number SM-A066B, and camera cut-out, button openings or fixing can differ. You can see which version you have in Settings under About phone; the page for your model is the Samsung Galaxy A06 repair page.
Frequently asked questions about the Samsung A06 back cover
Samsung A06 back cover: what is included in the EUR 59?
The new plastic cover, releasing the old one with heat, scraping every bit of old adhesive off the frame, a look at the battery for swelling and bonding the new cover with fresh adhesive. Camera and buttons are tested afterwards. The six-month warranty covers both the cover and our work.
Why does the back of the A06 not shatter like glass?
Because it is made of plastic, just like the frame. Only the front is glass. That is why the back of the A06 does not shatter into shards in a drop, but cracks, dents or breaks out at the corners and around the camera. For you that means no risk of cuts, but a gap through which dust gets into the phone.
Why is the A06 back cover lifting although the phone was never dropped?
Usually the battery is pushing from inside. An ageing battery can swell and lift the glued cover on one side. Please do not press it back and stop charging the A06 overnight. In this case we replace the battery first for EUR 69 and then reseal the cover, with a new one for EUR 59 if needed.
Is the A06 back cover available in my colour?
Usually yes, but not always straight away. A06 colours vary by market, and not every one is permanently in stock with our suppliers. We tell you before the repair which colour we can get. If yours is not available right now, you can wait or choose another; the price stays at EUR 59.
Does the whole cover need replacing if only the glass over the A06 camera is broken?
No. The two rear lenses are protected by small glass covers. If only those are cracked, we replace them alone for EUR 35 and the back cover stays on. A new cover for EUR 59 is only worth it once the plastic around the camera has broken out or cracks run across the surface.
Is the fingerprint sensor on the back of the A06?
No. On the A06 the fingerprint sensor sits in the power button on the right-hand side. The back cover is purely a housing part. After the replacement, unlocking by fingerprint and PIN works exactly as before, and you do not need to set anything up again.
Taking off the A06 back cover yourself: can it be done without damage?
With patience and tools it can be done, but it has its pitfalls. The cover is glued all round; it has to be softened with heat and separated with a thin tool. Go in too deep and you hit ribbon cables or the battery. Without new adhesive the cover will not hold well afterwards. With us the job costs EUR 59 including the part.
Does a case protect the new A06 back cover?
Yes, noticeably. A plastic cover breaks mainly at the corners when the phone lands on an edge. A case with a raised rim around camera and corners absorbs exactly that. There are plenty of cheap cases for the A06; just make sure it is made for this model and leaves the side buttons free.
How long does the A06 spend on the bench for a cover swap?
About an hour of work. The adhesive needs heat before the old cover gives way, then we clean the frame and let the new cover cure under pressure. With a drop-off appointment or a morning pickup, the A06 is often ready the same or next working day, by post in two to four working days.
Is any data lost when the A06 back cover is replaced?
No. We only work on the housing; storage and settings remain untouched. Photos, chats and apps are unchanged after the repair. Take the microSD card out before posting so it does not get lost; on the A06 it sits in its own slot.
Do you collect the A06 with a broken back in Vienna?
Yes. A courier picks up the A06 at the Vienna address you enter and brings it back with a new plastic cover. Both trips cost from EUR 17.90 combined, depending on the zone. If a piece has broken out, put tape over the gap before handing it over, so no dust gets into the housing on the way.
What do I tape up before posting an A06 with a broken back cover?
Tape over every crack and every open corner of the plastic, so the A06 does not pick up dust in the parcel and loose edges cannot catch. Next: switch it off, slide out the card tray, wrap the phone in padding and use a solid box rather than an envelope. The address comes by email after booking; the return trip is insured.
Can I bring the A06 in person for a back cover replacement?
Yes, if you book a drop-off appointment first. You get a fixed slot in the 22nd district; we do not have an open workshop for spontaneous visits. For a quick cover replacement that is often the most direct route if you live nearby.
Does the warranty apply if the new A06 back cover lifts at the edge?
Yes. If the new cover lifts at the edge within six months without the phone having been dropped, we reseal or replace it free of charge. New breaks from a drop are excluded. If it lifts because the battery is swelling, we check the battery as well and tell you what needs to be done.
Does a new back cover still pay off on the A06, or is a new phone the better buy?
The cover usually pays off if screen and battery are fine. A cracked plastic cover lets dust and moisture into the housing, and the A06 has no IP rating to begin with. EUR 59 is a little over half of the roughly EUR 103 a new A06 costs, and you keep your set-up phone with all its data. If the battery is swollen as well, we add up both items for you beforehand.
