Expert Advice & Tips

Common causes of this issue:
- Faulty camera module due to impact or water ingress
- Autofocus sensor misalignment after a drop
- Software glitches causing the camera app to crash
- Lens seals degraded allowing dust or moisture in
- Sensor damage from pressure or improper repairs

Prevention tips:
- Use a protective case with a raised edge to minimise impact
- Keep the device away from water and moisture
- Regularly update the camera app and system software
- Clean the lens gently with a microfiber cloth, not a rough sleeve
- Schedule annual checks if you rely on photography for work or studies

When to repair vs replace:
- Repair when the fault is isolated to the camera module or sensor and the phone otherwise works well
- Replace if camera issues persist after two professional repairs or if major sensor damage is detected
- Consider overall device health, age, and compatibility with new apps
- Price and downtime: prefer a repair if total cost and time are lower than replacement

What to look for in a quality repair service:
- Clear diagnostic process and itemised quote
- Genuine parts and ethical sourcing
- Transparent warranty terms and aftercare support
- Cleanroom or controlled-workflow for sensitive components
- Evidence of testing and validation after repair

Red flags to avoid:
- Vague or changing quotes, or no written estimate
- Substandard parts or unqualified technicians
- Limited or no warranty coverage
- Pushy upselling or delays in completion
- Lack of verifiable testing results

Maintenance guidance after repair:
- Keep software updated and back up data regularly
- Use a protective case and screen protector
- Avoid exposure to extreme heat or cold after repair
- Monitor camera performance and return if issues recur

What Our Customers Say

E
Emily Carter from Marsh, Huddersfield
Huddersfield

After dropping my Galaxy A8 on the pavement near Marsh Road, the camera wouldn’t focus. I walked to iRepair Guys Marsh in Huddersfield and they fixed the camera module within an hour. Friendly staff, transparent pricing, and the photos are sharp again. It felt like a proper local service you can trust, far quicker and cheaper than any Apple Store experience I’ve had.

Daniel Patel - Business owner
Huddersfield

We rely on our phones for client calls, so a quick fix was essential. iRepair Guys came to our office in Almondbury for a same-day camera repair on a Galaxy A8. Fast, reliable, and cheaper than the Apple Store for corporate repairs. They even offered a small business discount which helped our cash flow.

Sophia Kim - Student

As a student, I needed a cheap fix for my Galaxy A8 camera. The team in Huddersfield offered a great price, checked it on the spot, and explained everything. I got a same-day repair and the camera works perfectly again—definitely cheaper than going to Apple and waiting days for a replacement.

Liam Walker from Brighouse
Near Huddersfield

I sent my Galaxy A8 from Brighouse via their mail-in option and was impressed with how easy it was. The camera module was replaced quickly and they kept me updated at every step. No fuss, just solid, reliable repair work and a proper local alternative to the usual big-name stores.

Dropped my Galaxy A8 and the camera wouldn’t take a decent photo. The Huddersfield team fixed it while I waited at the Marsh shop. Great service, helpful staff, and the price was fair for the quality. It’s one of those places you actually recommend to colleagues.

We use several Galaxy devices for the family, and the camera issues were slowing us down. iRepair Guys fixed all three Galaxy A8 cameras in one afternoon. The repairs were done quickly, with a loyalty discount for returning customers. A trustworthy local service in Town Centre and beyond.

We offer affordable options including student discounts and business rates for eligible customers. If you’re a regular customer or have multiple devices, we can discuss loyalty and multi-device discounts to maximise value.

Quality & Process

Q:

Parts quality?

We use high-quality camera modules and components for Samsung Galaxy devices. Where available we source OEM-grade parts and every part is subjected to pre-installation QC and post-installation testing to ensure focus, exposure, autofocus, and video performance remain flawless after repair.

Q:

How long does repair take?

A:

In most cases, camera repairs for the Galaxy A8 (2016) take around 2 hours in-store. We also offer a mobile service option for on-site repairs the same day, subject to location and parts availability.

Q:

Will features work after? (Camera app, etc.)

A:

Yes. We verify all camera features after repair, including autofocus, exposure, video recording, and the camera app’s normal operation. Other device features are tested as part of our QC, so you can be confident everything works as before.

Q:

Success rate?

A:

We achieve a high success rate with Samsung Galaxy camera issues. Our in-house QC checks and 12-month warranty give you confidence; customer satisfaction stands at 98% across all repairs, with an average turnaround of 30-60 minutes for approved fixes.

Service Options

Q:

Walk-in, mobile, or mail-in?

A:

All three options are available. Walk-in to our Huddersfield store at Marsh, use our mobile service to fix your device at your location, or mail your device to us for a diagnosis and repair. Walk-in offers the fastest route to same-day repair when parts are in stock; mobile service provides convenience for teams or relatives at work or home.

Q:

How does mobile repair work?

A:

Our technicians come to you with the necessary equipment to diagnose and replace the camera module on-site. We perform the initial diagnostic, swap the camera module if required, run tests, and provide rapid confirmation of the fix—usually within a few hours depending on location and part availability.

Q:

Need appointment?

A:

Walk-ins are welcome, but for guaranteed same-day service we recommend booking an appointment. We’ll confirm a time window and ensure parts are ready. Appointments can be made by phone or email, and our team will accommodate urgent requests whenever possible.

Q:

A:

Yes. Our mobile service is ideal for businesses and home users alike. We can repair at your office in Town Centre or Brighouse, or visit your home for residential repairs. This reduces downtime and keeps your team productive.

Warranty

Q:

If something goes wrong?

A:

If a problem arises within the warranty period, contact us with your repair reference. We’ll schedule a re-check and fix the issue promptly, subject to warranty terms. In most cases, we’ll perform a free rework or replacement of the affected parts under the warranty.

Q:

Affect manufacturer warranty?

A:

Our repairs are designed to be compatible with manufacturer warranties. In most cases, third-party repairs do not void the Samsung warranty. We provide workmanship and part warranties and can guide you if you’re pursuing a manufacturer warranty claim.

Technical

Q:

Device-specific technical question

A:

For the Galaxy A8 (2016), camera issues often stem from moisture ingress, a damaged lens, or a loose flex cable. Our technician will inspect the camera module, lens block, and flex cable, then perform a controlled module replacement if needed. Post-repair, we run autofocus, exposure, and video tests to ensure full functionality and that the fix lasts.

Q:

What causes this issue?

A:

Camera faults typically arise from accidental impacts, moisture exposure, or wear over time. A damaged flex cable or sensor can cause blurry images or non-responsive autofocus. Regular use, drops, and exposure to humidity can accelerate wear, making a prompt, professional repair the best solution to restore full camera performance.

Q:

Repair or replace device?

A:

For Galaxy A8 (2016), if the camera module is severely damaged or multiple components fail, we may recommend a full camera module replacement. In cases where motherboard damage is detected, we’ll advise whether repair is still viable or if a replacement device is a more sensible option. We aim to fix first and replace only when necessary.

Q:

Fix multiple issues?

A:

If your device has multiple faults, we can repair several components in one visit. For Galaxy devices, camera issues often co-exist with screen or battery concerns. We offer multi-repair discounts when booking for two or more problems, reducing total downtime and keeping your device fully functional faster.
