Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of back glass damage:
- Dropping the phone: impact shatters glass and can crack internal layers, affecting sensors.
- Pressure from pocket or bag contents: keys or coins can scratch the panel.
- Temperature fluctuations: rapid cooling can weaken adhesive bonds.
- Poor previous repairs: inferior glue or misalignment leads to future failures.
Prevention tips:
- Use a sturdy case and screen protector to reduce impact.
- Avoid placing the phone in back pockets or bags with sharp objects.
- Store away from heat sources and avoid sudden temperature changes.
- Regularly clean charge port and camera opening to prevent debris buildup.
When to repair vs replace:
- Repair if the back glass is the only issue and components test OK.
- Replace if cameras, fingerprint reader or charging connections are damaged.
- If the price of a repair approaches the value of the device, consider replacement.
What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear, written quotes and transparent warranties.
- Genuine or OEM-grade parts and QA testing.
- Clean workspace and trained technicians.
Red flags to avoid:
- Vague pricing or no warranty.
- Unsealed parts or rushed work.
- Limited testing post-repair.
Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Keep the screen dry and away from excessive moisture.
- Refrain from heavy cases for 24 hours to allow adhesive to cure.
- Monitor for any camera or sensor drift and return if needed.

Q:

We use approved parts and follow manufacturer guidelines, ensuring you retain eligibility for warranty with Samsung or your device’s original component protections. Always keep your proof of repair handy.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Galaxy A8 (2016) uses a rear glass panel with a specialised adhesive. We remove the damaged glass safely, clean the frame to remove residue, apply the new adhesive, and fit the glass precisely to avoid gaps. Our technicians verify touchscreen responsiveness, digital sensor calibration, and display colour accuracy after installation. We also check for any heat-related issues that could affect performance.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Back glass damage usually occurs from drops or pressure on the screen. Over time, minor impacts can weaken the adhesive, making cracks propagate. Other factors include screen protector removal and debris under the glass. Regular maintenance and immediate replacement help prevent further damage to the display, camera, and internal components.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For many Galaxy A8 (2016) devices with a shattered back glass, replacement is the most practical option. It preserves the phone’s integrity, protects internal components, and restores water-resistance cues. If the device has broader damage, we’ll assess and provide honest advice on whether repair or a replacement is the more cost-effective route.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
We can handle multiple repairs, such as back glass plus screen or camera issues, and we offer multi-repair discounts. For example, if you need both back glass and screen replacement, we can combine the services into a single appointment with a tailored price. Our aim is to minimise downtime and deliver a reliable, all-in-one solution.
