Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of this issue:
- Worn or damaged haptic motor components causing weak or uneven vibration, especially after drops or storage pressure.
- Faulty flex cables or poor connector seating interrupting the vibration signal.
- Moisture ingress or corrosion affecting the motor driver circuitry.
- Software conflicts or firmware glitches that misinterpret vibration commands.
Prevention tips:
- Use a protective case with a soft inner lining to minimise shocks.
- Keep software up to date and avoid beta builds that can affect hardware drivers.
- Regularly check for app conflicts that control vibration (some games or accessibility apps).
- Don’t expose the device to high humidity or water damage.
When to repair vs replace:
Short intro: if the vibration is essential for alerts, calls, or usability and the motor shows visible wear, repair is often best; if the motor is physically seized or the board is severely damaged, replacement may be required.
- Repair if the motor can be restored with OEM parts and the rest of the device is healthy.
- Replace if the motor drives or board show extensive damage, or if repair costs approach device value.
What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear diagnostic process and upfront pricing before work starts.
- Use of genuine or OEM‑equivalent parts with warranty.
- A documented test plan that verifies vibration across typical scenarios.
- Transparent timelines and real‑time updates during the repair.
Red flags to avoid:
- Vague quotes or no written assessment.
- Parts from unknown sources or no warranty on repairs.
- Long turnaround without clear reason.
Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Follow post‑repair testing steps provided by the technician.
- Keep the device in a protective case and avoid impacts for 24–48 hours.
- Monitor vibration performance after firmware updates and report any anomalies promptly.

Our 12‑month warranty beats Apple’s typical 90‑day coverage, and our customer reviews consistently show faster turnaround with no surprises on price.

Q:

If the issue recurs within the warranty period, bring the device back and we will diagnose and fix it at no additional service charge. Our goal is to make it right quickly with minimal disruption.
Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
Our warranty is separate and does not automatically void your Samsung warranty. In most cases, you can still access Samsung support if needed. If you have an active warranty, presenting our service receipt helps document the repair and protect your device status.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Galaxy A5 (2016) vibration issues are typically due to a faulty vibration motor, a loose connector, or a damaged vibration driver on the motherboard. We begin with a full diagnostic, check the motor, test the flex cable, connectors, and relevant ICs, then replace the defective component and calibrate the system. After repair, we run a vibration test and verify that all other functions remain intact.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Common causes include impact damage from drops, moisture exposure, or wear over time. Debris can accumulate in motor housing, reducing operation, while firmware glitches can occasionally affect sensor readings. Our process identifies whether the fault lies strictly with the motor, a loose connection, or ancillary circuitry, ensuring we target the correct part.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For the Galaxy A5 (2016), we prioritise repair when parts are available and the board is intact. If the motor or critical components are unavailable or the board is severely damaged, we’ll discuss device replacement options. We always present a clear, no-obligation diagnosis and explain the best value path for you.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If multiple faults are detected during diagnosis (for example, a cracked screen or charging port alongside the vibration issue), we can address them in one visit. When two or more faults are repaired in a single device, a bundled discount is applied to the total repair price to maximise value and minimise downtime.
