The Galaxy A56 5G arrived in 2025, with a 6.7 inch Super AMOLED display. It charges over USB-C and it unlocks with an optical fingerprint reader under the display. There is an aluminium frame, and it is rated IP67. A raised camera island on the back rather than three separate lenses, which is what separates the A56 from the A55 at a glance. SM-A566B is the model sold here.

What this fixes
Why people book a speaker & microphone repair.
- Callers cannot hear youThe microphone rather than the speaker. There are several in the phone and it is worth knowing which.
- You cannot hear callers on the earpieceThe earpiece speaker, which sits in the display assembly on most models.
- Sound only works on speakerphoneNarrows it to the earpiece rather than the loudspeaker.
- Crackling at high volume onlyA damaged driver. It usually gets worse and it does not recover.
- It went quiet gradually over monthsVery often compacted lint rather than a failed speaker. A careful clean is sometimes the whole repair.
- Sound cuts out when the phone is squeezedA connector rather than the speaker. Worth opening and checking before ordering a part.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely the speaker?
Half the phones that arrive here with no sound have nothing wrong with the speaker.
IfCallers cannot hear you but voice notes record fine
Different microphones. That tells us which one to look at and makes it a smaller job.
IfIt has been silent since a screen repair somewhere else
The earpiece sits in the display assembly and is easy to disturb. Bring it in.
IfSound works on Bluetooth and headphones but not the speaker
Confirms the speaker rather than the board, which is the cheaper of the two.
IfIt has been silent since a screen repair elsewhere
The earpiece sits in the display assembly and is easy to disturb. Bring it in rather than assuming the part failed.
IfIt stopped after the phone got wet
Assess the liquid damage first. A new speaker in a corroding phone is money wasted.
If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.
What parts do we fit?
Where Samsung supplies a service part for this component, that is what goes in. Where it does not, we fit premium aftermarket and say so. Which of the two you are getting is settled before you agree to anything, and the 360-day warranty does not change between them.
Nobody here will call a part original when it is not. If what fits your phone is premium aftermarket, you hear that word at the counter rather than reading it on a docket afterwards.
What the Free diagnostic includes
- The speaker or microphone replaced, or cleaned where that is enough
- Every audio path tested, not only the one that failed
- A real call made before the phone goes back
- 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship
You will not find work on the bill you did not agree to. If something else shows up while the phone is open, we stop and ask rather than deciding for you.
If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.
Choose the part
Two tiers, named before you agree.
Speakers and microphones are small parts and the tier gap on them is the smallest on this list.
Value Edition
Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard
Made to the original specification. On a speaker this is hard to fault and it is what most of these repairs use.
Priced at the counterThe price for this repair is confirmed after a free diagnostic. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.
Before any of this, let us look at the grille. Compacted pocket lint muffles a loudspeaker very effectively, and where a clean fixes it that is what you pay for and no part goes in at all.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Tell us what it is doing
Walk in during opening hours or book ahead, whichever suits. Tell us what the device is actually doing rather than what you think the fix is.
Free diagnostic
Before a part is ordered we establish what has really gone wrong. It is free, and it is the reason people do not leave here having paid for the wrong thing.
You approve the price
You hear the number first. If it is not worth it to you, that is a perfectly good answer and it costs you nothing.
The repair is carried out
It stays in the shop. The work is done on our own bench by the technicians who do it every day of the week.
Bench testing
Nothing is handed back untested. The repaired part and its neighbours are all checked first.
Back in your hands
Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.
Before it goes back
What we test every time.
A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.
Proximity
Checked at the same time, since it sits beside the earpiece and gets disturbed with it.
Earpiece and loudspeaker separately
They are different parts and a fault in one says nothing about the other.
A real phone call
Made and answered, since that is the only test that proves the path end to end.
Volume across the range
Quiet and loud, because a damaged driver often passes at low volume and rattles at high.
What happens to what is on it?
We are replacing a part, not reading a phone. Your photos, messages and accounts are not something this job touches.
The one place it comes up is testing. A repair is not finished until it has been used, and using a locked device means a passcode. You are welcome to withhold it, and we will tell you which checks that leaves undone rather than quietly skipping them. A passcode you do give us lives on a paper docket that gets shredded, never in a database.
Back it up first if you can. A device that has taken a knock has had its storage shaken whether or not anything looks wrong, and a backup is free insurance against the day that matters.
Will it still survive a splash?
Treat the phone as no longer water resistant after any repair, including ours.
Apple's IP68 rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed phone under controlled laboratory conditions. It is not a permanent property of the device. The seal degrades with age, heat and everyday knocks long before anybody opens it.
Opening a phone means cutting through that seal. We refit the display with fresh adhesive, which restores a physical seal and keeps ordinary splashes and rain out. What we will not do is tell you it is back to IP68, because we have no way to test that and neither does any independent shop in Ireland.
If your phone lives near water, say so when you book and we will talk you through what the adhesive does and does not cover.
The 360-day warranty
Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.
What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.
No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.
Three ways to get it to us
- Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
- We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
- Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.
Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

We quote it after a free diagnostic, because the price depends on what we find. No fix, no fee, so if we cannot repair it you pay nothing.
Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
Very often, yes. The loudspeaker grille packs with pocket lint and it muffles sound long before it silences it. We clean and test before quoting a replacement, and where the clean fixes it that is what you pay for.

Gently, with a soft dry brush and the phone switched off. Never a pin and never compressed air into the grille.
Sometimes, because on most phones the earpiece is part of the display assembly. Tell us what the sound is doing when you book so we check both.
A speaker or microphone is one of the cheaper parts in a phone, so usually yes.

Customer reviews
Excellent customer service bought my samsung A54 best price in dublin.
As I'm a lawyer, I need a reliable phone. For me, it's an office extension in my pocket. I decided to buy a Samsung S23 Ultra. I live in Drumcondra so being aware of their excellent reputation locally, I visited iMend last week. The manager and assistant could not have been more helpful. I bought the phone and it exceeds my expectations. On checking, the price was the lowest in Dublin. Anyone who needs a phone or a small electronic product will be well looked after by iMend. Great people to deal with!
Help me moving my phone data great customers services at imend phone repair shop drumconda branch.
I had a great experience getting my phone fixed. The staff was friendly and efficient, and my phone works perfectly now. It was also not expensive. Highly recommend their service!
This was my second time back to Imend. Great friendly guy working there and extremely helpful. Phone was repaired very quickly and its like brand new. Only too happy to recommend Imend.
Excellent experience with the team in imend. My husband 50th birthday present was a phone charger and holder for your car and it wouldn't stay attached to his Audi dash. The guys in imend put two devices together to get it working. Very happy Hubbie and wife- lovely guys to work with and they even threw in a birthday charging gift.
