Expert Advice & Tips
1. Common causes of this issue:
- Worn vibration motor bearings or imbalance from drops can create a grinding or uneven buzz.

3. When to repair vs replace

Pricing & Value
Q:
How much does this repair cost?
Pricing for a Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) vibration issue varies by fault and exact parts required.

Our pricing is designed to be fair for UK customers in Huddersfield and surrounding areas, and we offer transparent quotes before any work begins.

This means we can offer rapid, reliable fixes without the premium of a manufacturer store. Our same-day service and mobile repair options reduce downtime significantly, so you get your device back faster and at a lower total cost than Apple Store equivalents.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
We pride ourselves on transparency. You’ll receive a full written quote before any work starts with no hidden charges. If a fault requires additional parts or tests, we’ll explain the necessity and gains in plain terms and only proceed with your explicit approval.
Q:

Speak to our team at iRepair Guys Marsh or via our secondary stores in Town Centre and Brighouse to discuss the best pricing for multi-device repairs or corporate fleets.
Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We source parts from reputable suppliers and prioritise OEM-grade alternatives where possible to ensure compatibility and longevity. Each vibration motor replacement undergoes rigorous testing to confirm correct operation of the motor, a consistent vibration level, and no unintended side effects on nearby components.
Q:
How long does repair take?
In-store repairs for vibration issues typically take 30-60 minutes, with many devices repaired the same day. For mail-in or mobile on-site service, turnaround depends on parts availability, but most vibration repairs are completed within the same business day.
Q:
Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)
Replacing a vibration motor does not affect features like Face ID where applicable, nor does it alter software. We test the device comprehensively after repair, including the vibration function, screen, and basic functionality to ensure everything works as expected.
Q:
Success rate?
We achieve high success with vibration issues on Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 devices, reflected by our 4.9 average rating and 98% customer satisfaction. Every repair includes our standard 12-month warranty and a full post-repair verification.

Warranty
Q:
What warranty?
We offer a 12-month warranty on parts and labour for vibration repairs on the Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017). The warranty covers the repair itself and any related workmanship. If the same fault recurs within the warranty period, we will re-service at no additional charge.
Q:
If something goes wrong?
If the repaired device fails due to the same issue, we will investigate at no extra cost and perform a re-fix as needed. Our goal is to make it right and restore full functionality quickly. Timely support is available through our Huddersfield stores and mobile service team.
Q:
Affect manufacturer warranty?
In most cases third-party repairs do not void your manufacturer warranty for the device itself. We follow manufacturer guidelines and provide certification for the work performed. If your device is under active warranty, we advise on the best course to avoid any unnecessary risk and ensure compatibility with any ongoing manufacturer terms.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
The vibration issue on Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) is most often caused by a failing vibration motor or a fault in the vibration driver circuit. Debris in the motor housing can also dampen motion. Our technicians inspect the motor, test electrical contacts, and verify firmware interactions to ensure a clean, reliable vibration function.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Common causes include wear of the vibration motor, dust ingress, connector fatigue, and occasional software glitches that momentarily mute vibration. Regular use, drops, and exposure to moisture can accelerate wear. We perform a thorough diagnostic to distinguish motor failure from surrounding circuitry.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For most Galaxy A5 (2017) vibration faults, a motor replacement or a driver repair is sufficient. If multiple components show wear or the device has other critical faults, we’ll advise whether repair remains cost-effective or if a replacement would be more sensible for long-term reliability.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
If you have additional issues such as screen, battery, or charging faults, we offer multi-repair options. Our team can bundle the vibration repair with other common fixes and apply a loyalty discount. This approach saves time and reduces total downtime compared with individual repairs.
