Still Rocking a Galaxy S22 in 2025? Smart. Keep a Good Phone, Don’t Waste Money.
New phones come and go. The S22 is still a compact powerhouse with a 120Hz AMOLED display, very capable cameras, and performance that handles everything most people do — social, banking, photos, video calls, maps, and work apps. If it’s cracked, flat by lunchtime, or fussy about charging, that doesn’t mean “buy new.” It means get a proper repair — and keep your setup, your apps, your photos, and your muscle memory.
At One-Systems Australia, we take pride in doing repairs properly. Our workshop benches are ESD-safe and tidy, our parts are vetted, and our testing checklist is boringly thorough (that’s a good thing). We serve Norwood, Mount Barker, and greater Adelaide with repairs that are quick when they can be quick, careful when they must be careful, and done right the first time. No mystery parts. No disappearing warranty. Just good work.
Who We Are (and Why Locals Send Their Phones to Us)
We’re not a script-driven franchise. We’re Adelaide techs who work with our hands, keep a clean bench, and believe in old-fashioned service. When you walk in, you can meet the tech who’s actually fixing your phone. You’ll get:
Clear diagnosis before we lift a tool.
OEM-grade Samsung parts that keep S22 features working (120Hz, ultrasonic fingerprint, good colour).
ESD protection and proper tools so nothing gets zapped or scratched.
Full function test before handover: display, touch, biometrics, cameras, audio, charge speed, signal, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, sensors.
Straight pricing and a 6-month warranty on parts and labour (doesn’t cover fresh impact or liquid).
We’re in Norwood and Mount Barker because this is home. We fix phones for families, tradies, students, small businesses, and the occasional “I-work-from-my-phone” superhero. If something isn’t right, we make it right — that’s how reputation is built, not with flashy ads.
Repair vs Replace: The Numbers that Actually Matter
New flagship: well over $1,600 today.
Trade-in for a cracked S22: usually disappointing.
Quality repair: often $350–$600 depending on the job (screen/battery/port/back glass), with honest bundling if you need more than one thing.
You keep your data. You keep your logins, home screen, Bluetooth pairings, messages, and photos. No new-phone setup slog. And because the S22 is still absolutely capable, repairing is often the smart money choice — especially when we can do it same day for many jobs.
We’ll quote before any work. Prices vary with part availability and the phone’s condition, but you’ll know where you stand. No surprises.
The Top S22 Problems We Fix Every Week (and How We Fix Them)
1) Smashed or Unresponsive Screen
Symptoms: spider-web cracks, black patches, vertical lines/green tints, touch not working in spots, ghost touches, flicker.Our fix: We fit an OEM-grade AMOLED screen assembly matched for the S22 (not S22+/Ultra). We re-enrol and verify the ultrasonic fingerprint so your lock works properly, seat new seals, and test brightness, colours, refresh rate, touch accuracy, and edge gestures.Time: Often 1–2 hours if in stock.Notes: We don’t “downgrade” S22 to cheap LCDs — that ruins colour, brightness, and fingerprint performance.
2) Battery Draining Too Fast (or Bulging)
Symptoms: drops from 30% to 5% in minutes, won’t hold charge a full day, gets warm idle, back panel lifting (stop using — it’s risky).
Our fix: Battery replacement with a quality, properly-rated cell. We use the right adhesives and pull-tabs, inspect connectors, and run a health test and charge-draw test.
Time: Usually under 1 hour. Data: Stays put — no wipe required for battery swaps.
Tip: Battery chemistry ages after ~2–3 years; replacement is normal maintenance, like new tyres on a good car.
3) USB-C Charging Port Issues
Symptoms: only charges at a certain angle, loose feel, no fast charge, car charger “works sometimes,” corrosion after liquid exposure, or debris. Our fix: We inspect for lint and corrosion, clean safely under magnification, and if needed replace the daughterboard (port). We confirm 25W fast charging handshakes properly. Important: The S22 supports 25W wired PD/PPS fast charge (S22+ and Ultra support 45W; the standard S22 is 25W). Tip: Skip the toothpick DIY — it often rips the port pins. Bring it in; we’ll clean or replace correctly.
4) Speakers & Microphones (Call Quality)
Symptoms: people can’t hear you clearly, your earpiece is whisper quiet, loudspeaker crackles, muffled voice notes. Our fix: Professional clean/re-mesh where possible or module replacement. We test earpiece, bottom speaker, microphones (primary + noise-cancelling), calls, voice memos, and speakerphone before sign-off.
5) Camera Problems (Lens Glass, Focus, Stabilisation)
Symptoms: camera app crashes, blurry shots, dots/lines, shaky “jello” video, cracked rear lens glass causing foggy photos. Our fix: Replace rear camera lens glass and/or the camera module. We clean dust, reseal properly, and test focus, OIS, and video stabilisation. Your S22 should take crisp photos again.
6) Back Glass Cracked
Symptoms: hairline cracks or fully shattered back, sharp edges, dust sneaking in.Our fix: Back glass replacement with the correct finish and camera ring alignment. We remove old adhesive cleanly, fit new glass, and clean the handset so it feels good in the hand again.
7) Water/Liquid Incidents
Water and electronics pretend to be friends… then they’re not.Our policy: We assess liquid exposure, clean, and attempt recovery. No liquid-damage warranties (no reputable shop offers that). Time matters: if it got wet, power off immediately and bring it in. Every hour counts.
Result: A phone that feels like your phone again — not a “close enough” replacement.
Battery Replacement, Done the Safe Way (No Data Loss)
Batteries are consumables — they wear out around the 2–3-year mark. We keep it careful and safe:
We heat and lift only where necessary to protect internals.
Adhesive pull-tabs get pulled, not stabbed.
We inspect for board corrosion or connector burn.
We seat the new battery with proper adhesive so it doesn’t rattle or bow.
We test charge speed, discharge, and temps before handover.
No factory reset needed — your data stays right where you left it.
Chargers, Cables & Accessories That Actually Work with S22
Not all accessories are created equal. The S22 uses an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor and 25W PD/PPS fast charging. Cheap accessories can mess both up.
Tempered Glass That Works with Ultrasonic Fingerprint. The S22’s fingerprint reader is picky. We stock fingerprint-compatible tempered glass and help you re-enrol your fingerprint after install for best results.
Cases That Fit Your Life
Slim & Grippy: pocket-friendly, office-friendly.
Rugged/Tradie: proper corner and face protection.
Clear Anti-Yellow: show the colour without that nicotine tint.
Wallet/Flap: classic convenience with card slots.
We test fit on real S22 frames so the buttons click right and ports aren’t half-covered.
Chargers & Cables (S22 = 25W)S22 supports 25W wired fast charging. You want a USB-C to USB-C cable and a 25W PD/PPS charger that actually negotiates the right profile. We stock bricks that don’t cook batteries and cables with proper e-markers.
Car Mounts & Wireless PadsWe carry stable mounts that don’t turn the phone into a bobblehead, and wireless pads that line up the coil properly. No squeaks, no “charging paused” drama.
If we wouldn’t use it ourselves, we don’t put it on the shelf.

Real-World Scenarios (We See These Every Week)
“Screen shattered, but it still buzzes and I hear notifications.”Likely the display/touch is gone; the phone is alive underneath. We fit a new AMOLED assembly, test cameras and biometrics, then install fingerprint-friendly tempered glass. Time: often 1–2 hours.
“Battery drops from 40% to dead in minutes.”Ageing cell or corrupted battery stats. We replace the battery, verify charge draw is normal, and confirm no board-level fault. Time: usually under an hour.
“Charges only in one odd angle — and no fast charge.”Pocket lint, damaged pins, or corrosion. We safely clean or replace the daughterboard, then confirm 25W PD/PPS engages properly.
“Rear camera glass cracked; photos look foggy.”Dust and moisture get inside fast. We replace the lens glass, check the camera for debris and OIS damage; if the module’s affected, we swap and reseal.
“Random restarts and fingerprint fails.”We run software diagnostics, check updates, storage health, and sensors. If a clean reinstall is required, we’ll help you back up first, then re-test hardware.
FAQ — Samsung Galaxy S22 Repair (Adelaide, SA)
How long do S22 screen repairs take?Often 1–2 hours if the panel is on hand. We’ll quote realistic timing when you arrive.
Will my data be safe?Yes. Screen, battery, port, and back-glass repairs don’t require wiping. If software repair is recommended, we help with backups first.
Do you use “original” Samsung parts?We use OEM-grade AMOLED screen assemblies and quality components fully compatible with the S22’s features (120Hz, ultrasonic fingerprint). We do not downgrade to cheap LCDs.
Do you fix water-damaged S22s?We assess and attempt recovery, but no warranty is offered on liquid-damaged devices (standard industry practice). Switch off immediately and bring it in.
Do you price match? We price for parts quality and workmanship we stand behind. If you have a strange quote, bring it in — we’ll explain what’s included so you can compare apples with apples.
Can you fix more than one issue at once?Yes. We often bundle repairs (e.g., screen + battery + back glass) to save time and cost.
Do you stock S22 accessories?Yes — tempered glass that plays nice with the ultrasonic sensor, cases, USB-C to C cables, 25W PD/PPS chargers, car mounts, and wireless pads we’ve tested.
Will my S22 fast-charge after repair?Yes — we confirm 25W PD/PPS fast charge works during post-repair testing (S22+ and Ultra support 45W; the standard S22 is 25W).
Our Repair Process (What Actually Happens Behind the Counter)
Check-in & Diagnosis We listen to what’s happening (symptoms matter), run a quick test, look for cracks around the frame, check charge stats, and confirm parts we’ll need. We explain the repair and quote clearly.
ESD-Safe Disassembly The S22 gets placed on an ESD mat with grounded techs. We heat areas carefully, lift adhesive correctly, keep screws organised, and protect flex cables.
Part Fit & Seal We fit the AMOLED assembly, battery, port or whatever is required using clean adhesive and alignment jigs. We make sure cameras sit dust-free and gaskets seat flat.
Calibration & Re-Enrol For screens, we re-enrol ultrasonic fingerprint and test touch across the full panel. For ports, we verify 25W handshakes. For batteries, we confirm charge warp and thermals behave themselves.
Full Function Test Display, touch, speakers, mics, cameras, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SIM signal, GPS, vibration, buttons, charging, and a quick stress check.
Clean & Protect We clean the device and, if you want, fit fingerprint-compatible tempered glass. We give you simple after-care tips to help the new part live a long, boring life.
Handover & Warranty You get your handset back with a 6-month parts & labour warranty (excludes impact and liquid). If anything at all feels off, come back — we’ll sort it.
Myths vs. Reality (S22 Edition)
Myth: “Third-party screen means fingerprint won’t work.”Reality: We use AMOLED assemblies that maintain proper stack thickness, and we re-enrol the print. Done correctly, fingerprint is fine.
Myth: “Any ‘fast charger’ will do.”Reality: The S22 needs PD/PPS-compliant 25W to fast charge properly. Bargain bricks often fail the handshake or run hot.
Myth: “I can poke lint out of my charging port with a pin.”Reality: That’s how pins get bent or torn. We clean under magnification or replace the daughterboard when needed.
Myth: “Water resistance means it’s waterproof forever.”Reality: After impact, heat cycles, and time, seals don’t behave like new. Treat it as splash-resistant, not pool-proof.
After-Care Tips (Keep Your S22 Out of Trouble)
Use a proper case — corner protection matters most.
Install ultrasonic-compatible tempered glass and re-enrol prints.
Use correct chargers — 25W PD/PPS with a proper USB-C to C cable.
Avoid long hot charges under a pillow or in the sun.
Keep it dry — “water resistant” isn’t bath-proof.
Fix cracks early — dust and moisture creep turns small annoyances into big repairs.
If it swells or gets hot, power down and bring it in. Batteries aren’t a debate.

Our Promise (Old-School, Because It Works)
We’ll tell you the truth about your S22, quote you fairly, repair it properly, and stand behind the work. If something’s not right, we’ll make it right. That’s how we’ve earned locals’ trust — not with gimmicks, but with good work and good manners.
Extra Tech Notes (For the Curious or the Fussy — We Respect Both)
Display: S22 uses a 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel. We stick with AMOLED assemblies, not LCD spares.
Biometrics: Ultrasonic fingerprint (under-display). We re-enrol post-screen replacement for reliable unlocks.
Charging: 25W PD/PPS wired; check your brick actually negotiates PPS. We confirm fast charge works during test.
Batteries: Capacity degrades naturally over 2–3 years; heavy heat and fast-charge cycles speed this up. Fresh quality cells restore normal runway.
Boards & Mods: If it’s a board-level fault (rare but real), we’ll explain options honestly, including when not to repair.
Expanded FAQ (Because Real People Ask These)
Q: Can you keep my screen protector if only the back glass is cracked?A: If it’s intact and good quality, we’ll try. If it’s lifting or not fingerprint-compatible, we’ll suggest replacing it.
Q: My S22 battery drops faster after an update — will a battery fix it?A: Sometimes a software reset and re-index stabilises things. If health is genuinely low or the pack is swollen, a new battery is the right call.
Q: Do you clean ports for free?A: We’ll take a quick look. If it’s just lint, we often clean as a courtesy. If there’s corrosion or physical damage, we’ll quote a daughterboard.
Q: Can you rescue data from a dead S22?A: Depends on what’s dead. If the board is alive, a screen/port/battery can bring it back to access data. If the board is gone, recovery is complex; we’ll explain options.
Q: Can you make it “waterproof again”?A: We reseat seals as best as possible. No third-party shop can certify factory water resistance after a repair, and we won’t pretend otherwise. Treat it as splash-resistant, not submersible.
Q: Can you bundle price if I need screen + battery + back glass?A: Yes. If it makes sense to combine, we’ll save you time and a bit of money.
Q: Do you fix S22+ and S22 Ultra too?A: Yes — and we’ll quote based on your exact model. Note the charging spec difference: S22 is 25W; S22+ and Ultra can do 45W with the right charger.
