- The camera app freezes after the first photo — the data bus from the sensor is interrupted
- The ultra-wide is separately faulty — only the affected module needs replacing
- The tele zoom shows black images — the flex to the tele sensor is loose
- OIS rattles with every movement — the magnets in the suspension have shifted
- The front camera crashes — the selfie sensor flex has come loose
- Photos look milky or hazy — moisture in the sensor encapsulation
This is how we replace the Galaxy S20 camera
- Which module is faulty?
Every lens of the Galaxy S20 is checked via a test app and manually. A single-module replacement is usually possible — that saves costs compared to a complete replacement.
- Open the back
The back glass on the Galaxy S20 is loosened with a heating mat, then pulled upwards with a suction lifter. No prying tools on the frame.
- Remove the old module
Disconnect the flex cable from the mainboard, loosen the module bonding, remove the old seal. The contacts are cleaned with isopropanol.
- Install the replacement module
Fit the new OEM-compatible module, press on the flex cable, OIS calibration via the software interface on the mainboard.
- Final tests and seal
Autofocus, HDR, video — complete function check on the Galaxy S20. New sealing ring for IP68 protection, the back is bonded firmly.
Repairing the Galaxy S20 camera in Vienna — process, price, sense
Your Galaxy S20 has the 64 MP triple camera with OIS — a solid system for everyday life, holidays and social media. If the main module fails, the repair price at Reparo at €89 is well below a new purchase (a used Galaxy S20 currently sits at €400–700). Ultra-wide €89, tele €99, front camera €79.
We pick up the Galaxy S20 in Vienna — you choose a time slot online, the courier comes to you. From the provinces it works by shipping, insured both ways, return shipping included in the price. After arrival there is the diagnosis first, then your approval, then the replacement. That way you know exactly what to expect beforehand.
Module replacement instead of single-part repair — why?
In theory you could swap individual sensor chips. In practice it does not pay off: the sensor is firmly bonded into the module, the workshop time would be twice as long as a pure module replacement — and the result would not be more reliable. That is why we replace the complete unit. That is the industry standard. More on other repairs for your Galaxy S20: screen replacement or battery replacement.
For Galaxy S20 models from two years old, the camera repair almost always pays off — the device still gets updates, the battery and display usually hold. For multiple damages (camera + weak battery + cracked display) we honestly weigh it up against a refurbished successor in the diagnosis.
Frequently asked questions about the Galaxy S20 camera repair
What does the camera repair for the Galaxy S20 cost?
Replacing the main camera on the Galaxy S20 costs €89 at Reparo in Vienna including the module, installation, function test and six months warranty. The ultra-wide module costs €89. The tele zoom of your Galaxy S20 costs €99 separately. Front camera €79. Diagnostic 25 EUR waived on order.
What is the difference between camera and camera glass on the Galaxy S20?
The camera glass is only the protective lens cover — replacement €19.90 per glass. The camera itself is the module with sensor, OIS and lens — replacement on the Galaxy S20 €89. The diagnosis brings clarity: often a glass swap is enough, with a real sensor defect the module replacement is necessary.
How long does the Galaxy S20 camera repair take?
The module replacement on the Galaxy S20 takes around two hours in the workshop. With pickup in Vienna you get the device back mostly on the same or the next day. With shipping from the provinces, plan one to three working days including transport.
Why does the camera of my Galaxy S20 no longer focus?
The most common causes: OIS motor faulty after a fall, autofocus drive worn, sensor flex cable loose or moisture in the module. On the Galaxy S20 our diagnosis shows in under 30 minutes exactly which component needs replacing — fixed price €89 confirmed beforehand.
Why does the Galaxy S20 camera only show a black image?
A black image despite an open camera app usually means: the sensor is dead or the data bus between the sensor and the mainboard is interrupted. A software reset helps in under 10 % of cases. On the Galaxy S20 we replace the complete module — €89 — after which the camera is fully functional again.
Why does the main camera of my Galaxy S20 wobble?
Yes. The Galaxy S20 has an OIS stabiliser that compensates the camera against slight shaking. After a fall the magnets in the suspension shift — the module rattles audibly. A replacement for €89 fixes it completely.
What does the ultra-wide replacement on the Galaxy S20 cost?
The ultra-wide of the Galaxy S20 costs €89 for the replacement. The module can be replaced separately if the main camera is intact — that saves considerably compared to a complete array swap.
Can the zoom/tele camera on the Galaxy S20 be replaced individually?
Yes. The tele zoom of the Galaxy S20 is replaced separately for €99 — the main camera and the ultra-wide stay untouched.
What does the front camera replacement on the Galaxy S20 cost?
We replace the front camera of your Galaxy S20 for €79. The procedure takes about an hour — with selfie cameras usually less involved than with rear cameras, because the access is more direct.
Can I bring my Galaxy S20 directly to Vienna for the camera repair?
No. Reparo works without a walk-in workshop. You book an appointment online, the courier picks up the Galaxy S20 from you in Vienna or you send it in insured from a province. No spontaneous dropping off possible.
How does the pickup service for the Galaxy S20 camera repair in Vienna work?
You book a time slot online between 9 and 18, the courier comes to your Vienna address — the Galaxy S20 travels in a padded box.
Do my photos stay intact during the Galaxy S20 camera replacement?
Yes. During the module replacement the Galaxy S20 is not reset — photos, apps, settings, the Samsung account all stay intact. The camera hardware is separate from the storage. We still recommend a backup in general before you hand in a device for repair.
How long is the warranty on the new Galaxy S20 camera?
Reparo gives six months warranty on the new camera module and the installation on the Galaxy S20. If a sensor or OIS defect occurs within the warranty period, we replace it included. New drop damage is not covered.
Is there camera repair for the Galaxy S20 nearby?
Reparo is based at Dr.-Natterer-Gasse 4a/Top 57, 1020 Vienna (Leopoldstadt) — centrally located. We work without shop access, but with an included courier pickup service in all 23 Vienna districts. From the provinces your Galaxy S20 comes by insured shipping — return trip included.
Is the camera replacement on the Galaxy S20 worth it or rather a new device?
A new Galaxy S20 costs €500–800. The module replacement for €89 is a fraction of that. As long as the display, battery and housing of your Galaxy S20 are still in good shape, the repair almost always pays off. For a Galaxy device older than five years, in the diagnosis we honestly tell you whether repair or a used successor is the better choice.
