🚨 Is This Happening to Your Phone? (Recognizing Back Glass & Housing Issues)

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, your phone has back glass or housing damage that needs attention:

💥 Shattered or Cracked Back Glass

You dropped your phone and now:

• Spider-web cracks across the entire back panel

• Large chunks of glass missing from corners

• Small cracks spreading from impact point

• Glass shards coming loose in your hand or pocket

This is the most common cosmetic damage after screen breaks. While your phone still works, the damage:

• Looks unprofessional and neglected

• Cuts your fingers or catches on fabric

• Exposes internal components to dust and moisture

• Significantly reduces resale value (up to 40% less)

⏱️ Typical repair time: 45 minutes - 2 hours | Success rate: 98% | Most common fix: Back glass panel replacement

📂 Loose or Detached Back Cover

Your phone's back panel is:

• Lifting away from the frame at corners or edges

• Creating visible gaps where dust collects

• Wobbling or flexing when you press on it

• Completely separated on one side

What this means:

• Adhesive has failed (heat exposure, age, or water damage)

• Battery may be swelling (pushing back panel outward) – DANGER SIGN

• Previous repair was done poorly with cheap adhesive

• Phone was opened before and not properly sealed

⚠️ Warning: Gaps allow moisture, dust, and debris inside, damaging:

• Charging port (corrosion from moisture)

• Camera lenses (dust spots in photos)

• Motherboard (short circuits from liquid entry)

• Battery (moisture accelerates degradation)

A loose back cover that started as a cosmetic issue becomes a R1,500+ water damage repair within weeks.

⏱️ Typical repair time: 30-60 minutes | Success rate: 99% | Most common fix: Re-adhesion with OEM-grade adhesive strips

🔨 Housing/Frame Damage (Bent or Dented)

Your phone's metal or plastic frame is:

• Visibly bent or warped (especially after sitting on it)

• Dented at corners from hard drops

• Scratched deeply, exposing bare metal underneath

• Side rails cracked or broken

Impact on phone function:

• Bent frame: Screen may not sit flush, creating touch dead zones

• Corner damage: Buttons may stick or stop clicking

• Deep dents: Can crack internal components underneath

• Warped housing: Camera lenses may misalign (blurry photos)

Common causes:

• Dropping phone on concrete from height

• Sitting on phone in back pocket

• Car running over phone (yes, this happens monthly)

• Crushing phone in door or heavy object

For severe frame damage (phone won't close properly, gaps everywhere), full housing replacement is needed.

⏱️ Typical repair time: 1.5-3 hours | Success rate: 94% | Most common fix: Complete housing/frame replacement

📷 Camera Lens Glass Broken (Rear Camera Bump)

The protective glass covering your rear cameras is:

• Cracked or shattered across one or more lenses

• Completely missing (fell out after crack)

• Scratched deeply (affects photo clarity)

• Chipped at edges

Why this matters more than you think:

• Every photo has blur, haze, or spots – the crack diffracts light

• Dust enters camera module – permanent spots in all photos (can't be cleaned)

• Moisture gets inside – condensation fogs up lens from inside

• Camera module itself can break – turning a R250 lens repair into R1,200 camera replacement

Most vulnerable phones:

• iPhone 11 Pro and newer (large protruding camera bump)

• Samsung Galaxy S21+ and newer (raised camera array)

• Huawei P30 Pro and newer (periscope lens)

• Xiaomi phones with 108MP cameras (large sensor bump)

⏱️ Typical repair time: 30-45 minutes | Success rate: 99% | Most common fix: Camera lens glass replacement

🔘 Worn or Damaged Buttons (Power, Volume)

Your phone's physical buttons:

• Don't click properly or feel mushy

• Stick and don't pop back out

• Are completely missing (fell out through gap)

• Rattle inside housing

• Require excessive force to press

What causes button damage:

• Normal wear after 2-3 years of daily use

• Liquid damage corroding internal metal dome contacts

• Housing damage near button openings

• Cheap replacement parts from previous repair

Symptoms:

• Can't turn phone on/off easily (power button issue)

• Volume stuck at one level (volume buttons broken)

• Can't take screenshots (need both buttons working)

• Emergency SOS accidentally triggering (stuck button)

The fix: Button flex cable replacement or complete button set replacement (usually part of housing).

⏱️ Typical repair time: 45-90 minutes | Success rate: 96% | Most common fix: Button replacement or housing swap

🔌 Port and Opening Damage

The openings in your phone's housing are:

• Charging port frame bent or cracked

• Speaker grille broken, clogged with debris

• SIM card tray stuck, won't eject

• Headphone jack (older phones) damaged or blocked

How openings get damaged:

• Charging port: Forcing cable in wrong orientation

• Speaker grille: Puncturing with sharp object while cleaning

• SIM tray: Using wrong ejector tool (paperclip bent the mechanism)

• Headphone jack: Broken aux cable stuck inside

Consequences:

• Charging port frame damage → port itself fails within weeks

• Broken speaker grille → dust enters speaker, muffled sound

• Stuck SIM tray → can't change carriers or use dual-SIM

• Damaged headphone jack → no wired audio (if phone still has jack)

The fix: For minor damage, careful cleaning and reshaping. For severe damage, housing replacement includes all openings and ports.

⏱️ Typical repair time: 30 minutes - 2 hours | Success rate: 91% | Most common fix: Housing replacement with intact ports/grilles

🎨 Color Fading, Paint Peeling, or Deep Scratches

Your phone's housing has:

• Paint or coating worn off (showing bare metal/plastic)

• Color faded from sun exposure (especially reds, blues)

• Deep scratches visible from across the room

• Glossy finish now dull and matte from micro-scratches

This is purely cosmetic but:

• Makes phone look old and uncared-for

• Reduces resale value by 25-30%

• Can't be "touched up" with paint (looks worse)

• Only solution is full housing replacement

Most affected finishes:

• Glossy colored backs (Samsung, Huawei gradient colors)

• iPhone colored aluminum (red, blue, green iPhones)

• Plastic backs (budget phones scratch easily)

⏱️ Typical repair time: 1.5-3 hours | Success rate: 98% | Most common fix: Complete housing replacement in original or new color

🏷️ Logo or Branding Damage

The manufacturer's logo on your phone's back is:

• Scratched off or significantly worn

• Partially missing (peeling sticker-type logos)

• Discolored from sun/heat exposure

• Covered by deep scratches

Why some people care:

• Resale buyers assume phone is fake without clear logo

• Looks unprofessional in business settings

• Personal pride in device appearance

Housing replacement includes fresh, intact branding.

⏱️ Typical repair time: 1.5-3 hours | Success rate: 98% | Most common fix: Housing replacement

🔬 What's Actually Happening Inside Your Phone? (The Technical Truth – Simplified)

Understanding why back glass and housing damage matters helps you make informed repair decisions:

1️⃣ Back Glass Construction (Why It Breaks and Why It Matters)

What it is: Modern flagship phones use tempered glass back panels instead of plastic or metal because:

• Enables wireless charging (glass doesn't block electromagnetic signals)

• Premium feel and appearance

• Better heat dissipation than plastic

• Allows complex color effects (gradient, frosted, matte finishes)

How it's attached:

• iPhone (iPhone 8 to 15 Pro): Back glass is fused to metal frame with industrial adhesive AND the frame is one complete piece – back glass removal requires:

  • Heating to 100°C+ to soften adhesive

  • Laser cutting machine to separate glass from frame (DIY impossible)

  • This is why Apple charges R3,500+ for back glass repair

• Samsung flagship (S9 to S24): Back glass glued with strong B7000 adhesive, can be removed with heat gun + prying tools (repairable, but risky)

• Huawei, Xiaomi, Oppo: Similar to Samsung – adhesive-attached glass back panels

Why glass backs break easily:

• Drop from 1 meter onto concrete: 70% chance of shattering

• Glass is rigid – doesn't flex like plastic, absorbs impact by cracking

• Thin glass (0.5-0.8mm) for weight reduction = fragile

• Large surface area = more impact zone

Hidden dangers of cracked back glass:

• Moisture entry: Cracks create microscopic channels for water vapor → internal corrosion over weeks/months

• Dust accumulation: Particles work their way inside → camera lens spots, charging port blockage

• Structural weakness: Phone's frame rigidity depends on intact back → further drops can crack motherboard

• Wireless charging failure: Cracks disrupt electromagnetic field → charging becomes intermittent

The fix:

• iPhones: Complete rear housing replacement (back glass + frame + all buttons + wireless charging coil transferred from old housing) – this is why it costs R1,200-R2,500

• Samsung/Android flagships: Back glass panel replacement only (frame reused) – R650-R1,400

• Budget phones with plastic backs: Simple back cover swap – R250-R500

💰 Typical cost:

• Plastic back covers: R250-R500

• Glass back panels (Android): R650-R1,400

• iPhone back glass (full housing swap required): R1,200-R2,500

Data safe? Yes, 100% – back glass replacement doesn't touch storage or motherboard

2️⃣ Housing/Frame Damage (When Structure Fails)

What it is: Your phone's housing/frame is the structural skeleton that:

• Holds all internal components in place

• Provides screw mounting points for motherboard, battery

• Forms the shape and rigidity of the phone

• Houses all buttons, ports, and openings

Materials used:

• Aluminum (iPhone, high-end Samsung): Strong, lightweight, expensive – bends but doesn't break

• Stainless steel (iPhone Pro models): Very strong, heavy, premium – resists bending

• Plastic polycarbonate (budget phones): Cheap, lightweight, flexible – cracks under stress

• Magnesium alloy (some Huawei): Strong and light, corrodes easily if exposed

How frames get damaged:

• Bending: Sitting on phone, stepping on it, car running over it

• Impact damage: Dropping on corners – metal deforms, plastic cracks

• Corrosion: Water/liquid damage causes oxidation on aluminum frames

• Wear: Button openings enlarge from repeated use, threads strip from over-tightening screws

Why frame damage is serious:

• Screen won't sit flush: Gap creates touch dead zones, allows dust under screen

• Buttons stop working: Misaligned openings mean buttons can't press internal switches

• Waterproofing destroyed: Even IP68-rated phones lose all water resistance with bent frame

• Structural failure: Motherboard can crack if frame doesn't support it properly

• Can't repair other components: Bent frame prevents reassembly after other repairs

Symptoms phone has frame damage:

• Phone "rocks" on flat surface (not flat anymore)

• Visible gap between screen and frame

• Back cover won't stay attached (frame no longer correct shape)

• Buttons are hard to press or don't click

• SIM tray won't insert properly (frame opening deformed)

The fix:

• Minor bending (aluminum): Careful reshaping with specialized frame straightening tools (R400-R700)

• Severe bending or cracking: Complete housing replacement – all internal parts transferred to new frame (R900-R2,200)

• Button damage only: Replace button flex cables (R350-R650)

DIY Frame Straightening = DISASTER: Using pliers, vise, or "just bending it back" will:

• Crack the frame further (micro-fractures you can't see)

• Snap off screw posts inside

• Damage internal components from pressure

• Make professional repair impossible

We've seen R700 repairs become R2,500 full-housing replacements after DIY attempts.

💰 Typical cost:

• Minor frame straightening: R400-R700

• Full housing replacement (Android): R900-R1,800

• Full housing replacement (iPhone): R1,400-R2,500

Data safe? Yes, 100%

3️⃣ Adhesive Failure (Why Back Covers Lift Off)

What it is: Your phone's back glass or back cover is held on by:

• OEM adhesive strips (pre-cut foam tape with strong adhesive on both sides)

• B7000 liquid adhesive (gel-like glue that cures flexible)

• In some cases, additional plastic clips around edges

Why adhesive fails:

• Heat exposure: Car dashboard in summer (60°C+) softens adhesive

• Battery swelling: Expanding battery pushes back cover outward (pressure overcomes adhesive)

• Age: Adhesive degrades after 3-4 years

• Moisture: Water damage breaks down adhesive bonds

• Previous repair with cheap glue: R5 generic adhesive fails within weeks

Progressive failure pattern:

1. Week 1: Small lift at one corner (barely noticeable)

2. Week 2-3: Gap widens, you can see inside

3. Week 4+: Entire side separated, back cover flapping loose

Dangers of ignoring loose back cover:

• Dust accumulation: Gets everywhere inside – camera lenses, charging port, speakers

• Moisture entry: Even humidity causes corrosion on motherboard

• Battery exposure: Physical damage risk if battery is directly under gap

• Lost back cover: Falls off completely and gets lost or broken

The fix:

• If back glass is intact: Remove old adhesive residue, apply OEM-grade adhesive strips, cure under pressure for 24 hours (R250-R450)

• If back glass is cracked: Replace glass AND adhesive (R650-R1,400)

• If battery is swollen: MUST replace battery first, then re-adhere back cover (R650 battery + R300 adhesive = R950)

⚠️ WARNING: If back cover is lifting and you haven't dropped your phone, CHECK BATTERY IMMEDIATELY – swelling is the most common cause. Swollen batteries are dangerous.

DIY Re-gluing Mistakes:

• Using superglue (cyanoacrylate) → creates rock-hard bond, impossible to open phone for future repairs, glue seeps inside and damages components

• Using hot glue → melts at 60°C, fails in hot car immediately

• Not cleaning old adhesive → new glue won't stick properly

Use OEM-grade adhesive strips only (3M 9448A double-sided tape or Tesa 61395).

💰 Typical cost: R250-R450 (re-adhesion only) | R650-R1,400 (glass replacement + adhesion)

4️⃣ Camera Lens Glass (Small Part, Big Impact)

What it is: The camera lens glass is a separate protective cover over your actual camera modules:

• 0.3-0.5mm thick tempered glass or sapphire crystal

• Glued or clipped onto housing around camera bump

• Takes all impact damage to protect expensive camera sensors underneath

Why it breaks:

• Phone laid face-up, cameras hit surface first when placing on table (especially iPhone 11 Pro+ with huge bump)

• Direct impact on corner during drop

• Keys/coins in pocket scratching glass over time until it shatters

• Pre-existing micro-cracks from previous impacts finally giving way

Why this "cosmetic" damage ruins your photos:

• Cracks diffract light → photos have haze, glare, or rainbow artifacts

• Dust enters through cracks → permanent black spots in every photo (unfixable without sensor cleaning)

• Moisture condensation → foggy lens that won't clear

• Focus issues → camera struggles to autofocus correctly (blur in center)

Example: Customer came in saying "my camera takes blurry photos after I dropped it." Screen was fine, phone worked fine. Camera lens glass had tiny crack barely visible. Replaced lens glass (R280), photos crystal clear again.

The fix: Replace camera lens glass protector:

• Remove cracked glass carefully (avoid scratching actual lens underneath)

• Clean adhesive residue and dust

• Install new OEM-spec lens glass

• Test all camera modes (normal, ultra-wide, telephoto, flash)

Different phone models:

• iPhone 11 Pro to 15 Pro Max: Large glass panel covering 2-4 lenses (R380-R650)

• Samsung Galaxy S20 to S24: Separate rings for each lens (R280-R450 per lens)

• Huawei P30 Pro+: Complex glass panel over periscope lens (R450-R750)

• Budget phones: Simple glass circles (R180-R280)

⚠️ DIY Danger: Attempting to remove cracked lens glass yourself often results in:

• Scratching the actual camera lens underneath (R1,200 camera module replacement)

• Glue residue left on lens (permanent blur)

• Dust contamination inside camera module

💰 Typical cost: R180-R750 depending on phone model and number of lenses

Time saved: 30-45 minutes vs 2-3 weeks waiting for camera module (if you damage the actual lens during DIY)

5️⃣ Button Mechanisms (Why They Stop Clicking)

What it is: Physical buttons on your phone have two parts:

• External button cap (plastic/metal piece you press on housing exterior)

• Internal flex cable with metal dome contact that touches motherboard switch

How buttons work:

1. You press external button cap

2. Cap pushes through housing opening

3. Cap presses on metal dome on flex cable

4. Dome collapses and makes electrical contact with motherboard

5. Phone registers button press

6. Dome springs back, button pops out

Why buttons fail:

• Dome fatigues after 50,000+ presses (power button on 3-year-old phone = 50,000+ cycles)

• Liquid damage corrodes metal dome → no longer conductive

• Button cap wears down → no longer reaches dome effectively

• Housing damage near button → button can't move freely

• Flex cable tears from bending during previous repair

Symptoms:

• Button requires hard press to work (worn dome)

• Button stuck down, always "pressed" (housing damage pinching it)

• Button rattles or fell out completely (housing crack near button opening)

• No response when pressing (dome corroded or flex cable damaged)

The fix:

• Button caps only: R150-R280 (just replace external metal/plastic caps)

• Button flex cable: R350-R550 (replace internal switch mechanism)

• Housing damage: R900-R1,800 (housing replacement includes new button openings)

Common on:

• iPhones (power button and volume buttons on same flex cable)

• Samsung (volume buttons prone to failure on J series, A series)

• Huawei (power buttons on P20, Mate 20 era)

💰 Typical cost: R150-R550 (button parts) | R900-R1,800 (housing if severe)

🛡️ What You Can Try Safely (And What Makes It Worse)

✅ SAFE STEPS – Try These First:

1. Clean Loose Debris from Cracks

You'll need: Soft brush (old toothbrush), tape

How to clean:

1. Gently brush away any loose glass shards

2. Use tape (sticky side) to pick up remaining tiny glass pieces

3. This prevents shards from working their way inside phone

Why this matters: Glass particles can scratch camera lenses, damage charging port, or cut your fingers.

⏱️ Takes: 5 minutes

2. Apply Temporary Screen Protector to Cracked Back

If you can't get repair immediately:

• Apply clear packing tape over cracks (holds glass together temporarily)

• Or use vinyl skin/dbrand skin to cover damage and prevent further chipping

This is TEMPORARY only – not a permanent fix, but prevents cuts and moisture entry for a few days.

3. Check If Battery Is Swollen (Causing Back Cover Lift)

How to check:

1. Place phone on flat surface

2. Does it rock back and forth? (Sign of bulging)

3. Look at back cover from side angle – is it noticeably curved outward?

4. Press gently on back – does it flex excessively?

If YES to any: STOP USING PHONE – bring to us immediately for battery check. Swollen batteries are fire hazards.

4. Avoid Exposing Cracked Back to Water

Even if your phone was "waterproof" originally (IP67/IP68), any crack destroys all water resistance.

Keep phone away from:

• Rain

• Bathroom steam

• Kitchen sinks

• Swimming pools

• Humid environments

Moisture entry through cracks causes corrosion within days.

❌ DANGER ZONE – NEVER DO THESE:

🚫 DO NOT Use Superglue on Cracked Back Glass

Why: Superglue (cyanoacrylate):

• Seeps into phone through cracks → glues internal components together

• Creates rock-hard bond → impossible to open phone for future repairs

• Reacts with moisture in air → releases heat that can damage battery

• Looks terrible (white residue around cracks)

We've seen phones completely ruined by superglue – R300 back glass repair becomes R2,500 "need full housing + component transfer + remove glue residue from motherboard."

🚫 DO NOT Try to "Smooth" Broken Glass with Sandpaper/File

This seems logical but:

• Creates glass dust that gets inside phone (respiratory hazard too)

• Enlarges cracks by weakening surrounding glass

• Scratches camera lens nearby

• Makes professional repair harder (irregular surface won't bond with adhesive)

🚫 DO NOT Remove Back Glass Yourself (Especially iPhones)

iPhone back glass removal requires:

• Laser cutting machine (R50,000+ equipment)

• Or destructive removal that destroys the glass + frame

• iPhone frame and back glass are one fused unit – cannot separate without specialized equipment

Android glass back removal requires:

• Heat gun at precise 80-100°C (too cold = won't loosen, too hot = battery fire/screen damage)

• Thin prying tools used correctly (wrong angle = cracked frame)

• Steady hands (one slip damages camera, flash, wireless charging coil)

DIY back glass removal disasters we've fixed:

• Cracked motherboard from prying too hard (R1,800 motherboard replacement)

• Battery punctured by screwdriver slip (battery fire in customer's home – he was lucky)

• Wireless charging coil torn (R450 part + R300 labor)

• Frame bent trying to pry glass off (R1,200 housing replacement)

Your DIY YouTube tutorial repair: R0 parts + 3 hours work + R2,500 fixing mistakes = R2,500 total
Our professional repair: R850 all-inclusive, done in 90 minutes = R850 total

Save yourself the pain.

🚫 DO NOT Continue Using Phone with Exposed Battery

If back cover has separated so much that you can see the battery:

• DO NOT press on exposed battery

• DO NOT charge phone

• DO NOT leave in hot area

• Bring to repair shop immediately

Exposed lithium-ion batteries are puncture/fire risks.

🚫 DO NOT Ignore Small Cracks

"It's just the back, phone works fine" is the most common mistake.

What happens to ignored back glass cracks over 1-3 months:

• Moisture seeps in → charging port corrodes → R550 port repair

• Dust enters → camera lenses get spots → R1,200 camera module cleaning/replacement

• Crack spreads → frame integrity weakens → phone bends in pocket

• Dropped again → frame shatters because back wasn't providing structural support

R650 back glass repair now prevents R2,000+ water damage repair later.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (Back Glass & Housing)

Q: My phone's back glass is cracked but everything works fine. Do I really need to fix it?

A: While your phone functions now, cracked back glass creates these real risks:

Within 2-4 weeks:

• Moisture enters through cracks → internal corrosion begins (invisible damage)

• Dust accumulates on camera lenses → permanent spots in photos

Within 1-3 months:

• Charging port corrodes → intermittent charging (R550 repair)

• Motherboard corrosion → random shut-downs, performance issues

Long-term:

• Structural weakness → phone bends or cracks motherboard on next drop

• Resale value drops 30-40% (cracked back phones sell for much less)

Cost comparison:

• Fix back glass now: R650-R1,400

• Fix back glass + water damage + port later: R650 + R1,200 + R550 = R2,400

Preventive repair saves money.

Q: Can I just use a phone case to cover the cracked back?

A: A case hides the damage visually but doesn't solve the problems:

❌ Does NOT prevent:

• Moisture entry (cracks are still exposed inside the case)

• Dust accumulation inside phone

• Glass shards cutting your hand when removing phone from case

• Further crack spreading from pressure

✅ Case ONLY helps:

• Prevent cuts from sharp edges (temporary safety)

• Hide cosmetic damage from view

Case is a temporary band-aid, not a solution. The underlying damage continues worsening.

Q: Why is iPhone back glass repair so expensive compared to Android?

A: Excellent question with technical answer:

Android phones (Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, etc.):

• Back glass is separate part glued to frame

• Can be removed with heat and prying tools

• Replace glass only, reuse original frame

• Cost: R650-R1,400 (glass + labor)

iPhones (8, X, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16):

• Back glass and frame are one fused unit (Apple's design choice)

• Glass cannot be separated from frame without destroying it

• Only two options:

  1. Apple: Complete phone replacement (R3,500-R6,000)

  2. Independent shops: Full rear housing replacement (remove ALL components from old housing, transfer to new housing with intact glass) – requires 2-3 hours skilled work

• Cost: R1,200-R2,500 (housing + 2-3 hours labor)

This is Apple's intended design to make repairs expensive and push users toward buying new phones.

We offer the most affordable iPhone back glass solution possible without sacrificing quality.

Q: Will my phone still be waterproof after back glass/housing replacement?

A: Honest answer: Original factory waterproof rating (IP67/IP68) cannot be guaranteed after any repair that involves opening the device.

Why:

• Factory uses precision robotics to apply adhesive perfectly

• Factory uses pressure chambers to cure adhesive under specific PSI

• Factory applies adhesive in controlled clean room (no dust particles)

What we provide:

• High-quality aftermarket adhesive (3M/Tesa, same brands used by manufacturers)

• Proper cleaning and preparation of surfaces

• Even pressure application during curing

• Visual inspection for gaps

Result:

• ✅ Splash resistant (rain, sink splashes, humid environments)

• ✅ Dust resistant (daily use protection)

• ❌ NOT submersion-proof (don't take swimming, don't submerge in water)

Recommendation: Treat all repaired phones as "splash-resistant only," even if originally rated IP68.

Q: Can you match the exact color if I need housing replacement?

A: Yes, for popular models. We stock OEM-color housings for:

iPhone: All standard colors for iPhone 7 through 16 series
Samsung: Standard colors for Galaxy S10 through S24, A-series
Huawei: Standard colors for P20, P30, P40, Mate 20, Mate 30
Xiaomi: Standard colors for Redmi Note 8 through 13, Mi/Poco series

Rare colors/limited editions: May require 2-3 day special order (we'll let you know upfront).

Color-change option: Want to switch from boring black to vibrant blue? Same price as color-matched replacement.

Q: My back cover is lifting because my battery is swollen. Which should I fix first?

A: BATTERY FIRST – ALWAYS.

Here's why:

1. Swollen battery is a safety hazard (fire/explosion risk) – priority #1

2. Re-gluing back cover with swollen battery underneath is pointless – battery will just push it off again within days

3. New back glass over swollen battery is dangerous – battery expansion can shatter new glass

Proper repair order:

1. Remove swollen battery safely (priority)

2. Inspect housing/frame (swelling may have bent frame)

3. Replace battery with new, safe unit

4. Re-adhere or replace back cover

Total cost: R650 (battery) + R300 (re-adhesion) = R950
or R650 (battery) + R850 (new back glass if cracked) = R1,500

Timeline: 1.5-2 hours total

We offer this as bundled repair with R200 discount – R1,300 instead of R1,500.

Q: I dropped my phone and now both the screen AND back glass are cracked. Should I fix both?

A: Depends on your priorities and budget:

Option 1: Fix Both (Recommended)

• Pros: Phone restored to like-new condition, maximum resale value

• Cons: Higher upfront cost

• Price: R1,200 (screen) + R850 (back) = R2,050 (we discount to R1,850 for bundle)

Option 2: Fix Screen Only (Functional)

• Pros: Lower cost, phone is usable

• Cons: Cracked back still allows moisture/dust entry, lower resale value

• Price: R1,200 (screen only)

Option 3: Fix Back Only (Rare)

• Pros: Lowest cost

• Cons: Can't see display properly – impractical unless screen damage is very minor

• Price: R850 (back only)

Our recommendation: Fix screen first (you need to see your phone). If budget allows, do both simultaneously (we give R200 discount for double-sided repair).

Financing: We offer payment plans for repairs over R1,500 (50% deposit, 50% on collection).

Q: How long does back glass/housing repair take? Can I wait?

A: Yes, most repairs are while-you-wait:

Timeline:

• Camera lens glass: 30-45 minutes (wait in shop)

• Back cover re-adhesion: 45-60 minutes (wait in shop)

• Back glass panel (Android): 1-2 hours (wait or drop-off)

• Full housing replacement: 2-3 hours (usually drop-off, same-day collection)

We have:

• Comfortable waiting area with WiFi

• Coffee/tea available

• Nearby shops and restaurants (Sandton City, Rosebank Mall, etc. – specify your actual location)

Same-day guarantee: Drop off before 2 PM, collect by 6 PM (for repairs under 3 hours).

Q: Will you match a competitor's quote? I found cheaper back glass repair.

A: We're committed to fair, transparent pricing. If you've found significantly cheaper quote:

Bring us the written quote – we'll either:

1. Match it (if competitor is reputable and using quality parts)

2. Explain the difference (if competitor is using inferior parts/methods)

Warning signs of suspiciously cheap quotes:

• R350 iPhone back glass repair (legitimate cost is R1,200+ due to full housing requirement)

• R200 Samsung flagship back glass (quality glass panels cost us R450+ wholesale)

• "Back glass repair while you wait in 20 minutes" (proper adhesive curing requires 30+ minutes under pressure)

These are scams using:

• Thin plastic "glass" (not real tempered glass)

• Cheap adhesive that fails in weeks

• No proper cleaning/preparation (adhesive won't bond correctly)

You'll be back in 1-2 months spending more to fix the failed "repair" plus original damage.

We'd rather lose a customer to a competitor than ruin your phone with substandard work.

Q: Can you save my data if you're replacing the housing?

A: Yes, absolutely. Housing replacement is a physical/external repair that doesn't touch your data storage.

What we transfer to new housing:

• Motherboard (contains all your data, settings, apps)

• Storage chip remains on motherboard – untouched

• Battery, cameras, all components

Your data is 100% safe – we never erase, reset, or access your data during housing replacement.

The only repairs that risk data:

• Motherboard-level repairs (micro-soldering on logic board)

• Water damage causing motherboard corrosion

For back glass/housing, zero data risk.

🔋 Pro Tips: Protect Your Back Glass & Housing

Prevent Back Glass Damage:

1. Use a quality protective case – Raised edges around camera bump (prevents lens glass damage)

2. Apply camera lens protector – Thin tempered glass over lens (R80-R150, saves R350+ repair)

3. Never place phone face-up on hard surfaces – Cameras hit first (especially iPhone 11 Pro+)

4. Avoid extreme temperatures – Heat weakens adhesive, cold makes glass brittle

5. Use pop socket or phone ring – Reduces drops significantly

Extend Housing Lifespan:

1. Don't sit on phone in back pocket – #1 cause of bent frames

2. Remove case every 2-3 months and clean – Dust/debris between case and phone causes micro-scratches

3. Don't over-tighten screws during DIY repairs – Strips threads in housing

4. Keep phone dry – Even "waterproof" phones degrade seal over time

5. Avoid cheap wireless chargers – Poor-quality magnets can pull back glass off over time

Warning Signs to Watch For:

🚨 Bring phone in immediately if:

• Back cover starts lifting (check battery swelling!)

• Phone rocks on flat surface (bent frame)

• Buttons become hard to press (housing damage)

• Gaps appear between screen and frame (structural failure)

• Phone feels unusually warm near back (battery/charging issue)

🆘 Emergency Situations – Act Fast!

🔥 Back Cover Lifting + Phone Getting Hot (URGENT):

This combination suggests battery swelling – potentially dangerous:

1. Power off immediately

2. Do NOT charge

3. Do NOT press on bulging area

4. Place in cool, dry, ventilated area (not hot car, not under pillow)

5. WhatsApp us immediately: "URGENT – swollen battery suspected"

We prioritize battery swelling cases – same-day or next-day appointment guaranteed.

⚡ Extensive Housing Damage After Drop:

If your phone:

• Won't turn on after major drop

• Screen and back both cracked

• Frame visibly bent

• Makes rattling sound (loose internal parts)

Don't try turning it on repeatedly – you may short circuit damaged components.

Bring it in for diagnostic:

• We'll inspect internal damage

• Test motherboard, battery, cameras

• Give you honest assessment (repair vs replace)

• Diagnostic fee: R250 (waived if you proceed with repair)

💬 Common Misconceptions About Back Glass Damage

Myth 1: "Back glass damage is just cosmetic, doesn't affect function"

Truth: While your phone works NOW, cracked back glass creates these real problems:

• Moisture entry → corrosion → component failure (within weeks)

• Dust on camera lenses → poor photo quality (permanent)

• Structural weakness → motherboard can crack on next drop

• Wireless charging interference (cracks disrupt electromagnetic field)

"Just cosmetic" becomes "expensive functional damage" if ignored.

Myth 2: "I can use superglue or tape to hold cracked glass together"

Truth: Superglue ruins your phone permanently:

• Seeps inside through cracks → glues components together

• Makes future repairs impossible (can't open phone)

• Creates heat during curing → can damage battery

• Voids all warranties

Tape (clear packing tape, vinyl skin) is safe as temporary measure only.

Myth 3: "iPhone back glass is expensive because Apple is greedy"

Truth: It's actually Apple's design choice that makes it expensive:

• Back glass and frame are ONE FUSED PIECE (cannot be separated)

• Repair requires transferring all components to new housing (2-3 hours skilled labor)

• Apple refuses to sell just back glass (must replace entire phone at Apple Store)

Independent shops like us make it affordable by offering housing replacement service (R1,200-R2,500 vs Apple's R3,500-R6,000).

Myth 4: "Wireless charging doesn't work through cracked back glass"

Truth: Partial truth. Wireless charging DOES work through cracks initially, but:

• Charging becomes less efficient (takes longer)

• Cracks can shift over time and block electromagnetic field

• Phone may overheat during wireless charging (cracks trap heat)

• Eventually stops working as damage worsens

Myth 5: "Phone case protects against back glass damage"

Truth: Cases help PREVENT damage but don't fix existing damage:

• Case can't seal out moisture from existing cracks

• Case hides damage cosmetically but problems continue underneath

• Case won't prevent further crack spreading from internal pressure

Case is prevention, not treatment.

Myth 6: "All back glass is the same quality"

Truth: HUGE difference between OEM and cheap aftermarket glass:

OEM/A+ Grade Glass:

• Correct thickness (0.5-0.8mm)

• Tempered for strength

• Precise camera/flash cutouts

• Original color matching

• Lasts 2-4 years

Cheap Aftermarket Glass (R150-R300):

• Too thin (0.3mm) – cracks again easily

• Not tempered – shatters on minor impact

• Poor camera cutouts – blocks flash or causes light reflection

• Color mismatch (black looks dark gray, etc.)

• Lasts 3-6 months before cracking again

We use OEM/A+ only – never cheap glass.

🌍 Environmentally Responsible Repairs

Every housing replacement saves a complete phone from e-waste:

Environmental impact of repair vs replacement:

• Repairing housing: 2kg CO2 emissions, 0.5kg waste

• Buying new phone: 60kg+ CO2 emissions, 10kg e-waste, mining rare metals

Our commitment:

• ♻️ Old housings recycled – aluminum melted down and reused

• 🌱 Glass properly disposed – sent to glass recycling facility

• 📦 Component reuse – salvage working parts from unrepairable phones

• 🚯 Zero landfill policy – all materials recycled or properly disposed

By choosing repair, you're:

• Preventing 60kg CO2 emissions

• Avoiding mining of rare earth metals

• Reducing global e-waste crisis

• Extending device lifespan (sustainable choice)

Feel good about repairing – it's environmentally smart AND saves money.
