Typical back cover damage on the Galaxy S20
- Your Galaxy S20 back is criss-crossed with a spiderweb crack pattern - classic after a fall
- The camera lens in the back is cracked - the camera takes blurry photos
- Wireless charging at 15 W breaks off mid-way
- Edges at the frame transition have chipped off
- The back comes loose from one side - moisture can creep in
- Long cracks across the glass show the impact point of the fall
A damaged back is more than just looks - if the adhesive frame is loosened, moisture creeps into the device and can cause mainboard damage. Our Galaxy S20 repair overview shows you all further services if additional damage is present.
How does the Galaxy S20 back cover replacement work at Reparo?
- Incoming diagnosis of back cover damage
Your Galaxy S20 is checked for the type and extent of the damage: just the back? The camera lens affected too? The Qi coil reachable? We document with photos and make a concrete plan.
- Detach the back under controlled temperature
The glass adhesive frame is heated to about 70 °C - with a precision heating mat, not with a hot air gun. The faulty back loosens evenly without pressure on the frame.
- Remove the old part + adhesive residue
The broken glass is fully removed, glass splinters in the frame removed. Old adhesive is loosened with 99 % isopropanol and special spatulas - without scratching the aluminium frame.
- Check the camera lens + Qi coil
On the Galaxy S20 the camera lens glasses and the wireless charging coil sit beneath the back. We check both for damage, replace if needed (clarified separately) and place them back in the original position.
- Bond the new back professionally
The OEM replacement part is fixed to the frame with original Samsung adhesive strips. Defined contact pressure, 30 minutes of curing time - the sealing values are then back as from the factory.
- Final test + quality assurance
Wireless charging test (if the model supports it), camera test shots, fit check on the frame, rear look inspection. You get your Galaxy S20 back looking like new.
Reparo works without customer access on site - your Galaxy S20 is picked up by courier in Vienna or sent in insured from the provinces.

Frequently asked questions about the Galaxy S20 back cover replacement
What does the back cover replacement on the Galaxy S20 cost in Vienna?
Replacing the Galaxy S20 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, the Qi coil checked, calibration and 6 months warranty. The diagnostic (25 EUR) is waived on a repair order.
Why does the back on the Galaxy S20 break so easily?
The Galaxy S20 back is a material compromise of hardness and weight - a glass back with chemical hardening (Gorilla Glass Victus or similar). The glass withstands everyday scratches, but with impact falls onto 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. A replacement is usually faster and cheaper than a new purchase.
Which symptoms bring customers with the Galaxy S20 back to us?
Most common on the Galaxy S20: a broken glass back or spiderweb pattern from the impact point. Sometimes the camera lens in the back has broken too - 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 spare parts are ordered.
Does more than just the glass need replacing on the Galaxy S20?
With cracks only in the rear glass, replacing the back cover unit including the adhesive frame is usually enough. But if the fall 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 S20: we install nothing that is not necessary.
Is the display damaged during the Galaxy S20 back cover replacement?
No. Unlike the battery replacement, with the back we go into the device from the rear - the display stays completely untouched. We heat the adhesive frame to 70-80 °C with a special heating mat, loosen the faulty glass with flat carbon spudgers and bond the new replacement part. Your Galaxy S20 screen stays as it was.
Does the IP68 water protection stay intact on the Galaxy S20 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 S20 again reaches the same water and dust protection as from the factory - brief immersion up to 1.5 m depth, 30 minutes. We generally advise against active diving or swimming after housing interventions.
Does wireless charging work after the back cover replacement on the Galaxy S20?
Yes. The Qi charging coil of the Galaxy S20 sits directly behind the back - 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 fall, it is replaced separately (cost after diagnosis). Without additional damage, wireless charging is the same after the replacement as before.
How long does the Galaxy S20 back cover replacement take at Reparo?
The pure working time on the Galaxy S20 is around 60-90 minutes. The total turnaround is 1-2 working days, because the new adhesive frame needs about 30 minutes of curing time before the device can be delivered again. We keep spare parts in stock for the most common Samsung models; for special colours 1 working day for procurement may be added.
Is the pickup service in Vienna included for the Galaxy S20 back cover replacement?
Yes. For the Galaxy S20 our courier drives to all 23 Vienna districts from Monday to Friday. You book a pickup window online (9-18), we pick up the device at your home or 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 the Galaxy S20 in from the provinces?
Yes. Customers from Graz, Salzburg, Linz, Innsbruck, Bregenz, Klagenfurt or St. Pölten send the Galaxy S20 in insured by post. After booking we send shipping instructions, after the replacement the device goes back insured. Diagnostic 25 EUR (waived on repair), all other costs included in the fixed price of €139.
Can I bring the Galaxy S20 to Reparo?
Reparo has no customer access on site in Vienna. The two options for the Galaxy S20 back cover replacement: pickup service by our courier (within Vienna, included) or insured send-in service (from all of Austria). Both variants have the same fixed price of €139.
Is data lost during the Galaxy S20 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 (included, 5 minutes via the Samsung account settings).
Original Samsung back cover or replacement on the Galaxy S20?
We fit high-quality OEM back covers that match the original Samsung parts in colour, material and fit. Original service pack parts are only available through authorised Samsung service centres. For certain special colours of the Galaxy S20 we check availability of the replacement part in advance - standard colours in stock.
How long is the warranty on the new Galaxy S20 back cover replacement?
Six months on material and installation. If the new replacement part comes loose from the frame in that time or shows manufacturing cracks, we replace it included. 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 S20 worth it at all?
Yes. A used Galaxy S20 with an intact back costs considerably more on the market than the replacement for €139. On top of that comes the effort: data migration, new setup, lost 2FA tokens. The replacement keeps the device looking like new - and the Galaxy S20 hardware works on for years. A new purchase only pays off if several components are faulty at the same time.
