Samsung Galaxy S5: How can I replace the camera lens on the Samsung Galaxy S5?

Tue, 03 May 2022 22:10:03 -0700

I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5. Everything works great. Unfortunately, I picked it up this morning and found that the camera lens is cracked. The screen protector on the lens is still intact, but the lens looks like a spider web. Searching online, I found a handful of people with the same issue—but no way to fix it myself. The only current option I found was to send it to Samsung directly, but I would be without a phone for up to 2 weeks, and it would cost at least $70. I was hoping I could find the part online and fix it myself, but I wasn't able to turn up anything. Is the phone just so new that this particular part is not yet available?

Samsung Galaxy A05: The touch sensor on phone wears out

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 05:28:44 -0700

Frequently I have to press the on/off button to make my touch screen work again.

There are no cracks on my screen, it's 5 months old.

When scrolling, swiping (I think txting is ok, as it hasn't happened while texting)

It works for a while and randomly it decides not to work, or you have to press firmly but that gets frustrating so I press the on/off side button so it goes back to working but having to do this frequently.

Please can you help

Samsung Galaxy S4: How much to repair lcd screen?

Sun, 03 Sep 2017 00:54:23 -0700

Hi,

Despite how careful I was with it, I managed to drop my Samsung Galaxy S4 and of course, cracked the screen in two places. Not only this, but the LCD is blackened out in some places and won't work.

How much would it cost to have it repaired and do you have a UK store/website?
