The Galaxy S22+ arrived in 2022, with a 6.6 inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display and the Exynos 2200 chip. Charging is over USB-C and it unlocks with an ultrasonic fingerprint reader under the display. It is rated IP68. Flat screen, three cameras in a raised block that runs into the frame, and a glass back. The camera housing is what separates an S22 from an S23. SM-S906B is the model sold here.

What this fixes
The faults a dead device diagnostic puts right.
- Nothing at all on the screenNo logo, no backlight, no response to the charger.
- It only works while plugged inAlmost always the battery, and one of the easier outcomes.
- It got hot and then diedWorth mentioning. Heat before failure narrows down where to look considerably.
- It vibrates but nothing appearsThe device is running. That points at the display or its connector rather than the power side.
- It gets warm on the charger and never startsSomething is drawing current. Worth a diagnostic before anything else is tried.
- It works only with the charger connectedThe battery is finished, and that is the cheapest of the possible causes.
Before you spend anything
Is it definitely a power fault?
A dead phone is the one case where guessing is expensive, because every possible cause has a different price.
IfIt went dead after a drop
Something is disconnected or cracked inside. Usually recoverable, and worth telling us it was dropped.
IfIt went dead after getting wet
This is a liquid damage assessment, not a dead device diagnostic. Do not charge it in the meantime.
IfIt loops on the Apple logo
That can be software rather than hardware, and software is recoverable without replacing anything. Tell us if there is data on it you need before we try anything.
IfIt went in water first
Liquid damage takes priority. Do not charge it and do not keep trying to power it on.
IfYour data is the priority
Tell us before we start. Some routes preserve everything and some do not, and knowing your priority decides which one we try first.
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?
Two tiers, and you choose knowing which is which: a genuine Samsung service part where one is made for this component, or premium aftermarket where none is. The warranty is 360 days on either.
We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Samsung certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.
What the Free diagnostic includes
- A full diagnostic on the bench, free
- A written answer on what has failed and what it costs
- No further work until you have approved the price
- No fee at all if we cannot fix it
Nothing extra gets done and charged for without you saying yes to it. Where the diagnostic turns up a second fault, the work stops there and you hear the price before it goes any further.
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.
How we do it
From the counter to back in your hand.
Free diagnostic
Nothing is opened or ordered until we know what failed. There is no charge for this and no obligation to go ahead afterwards.
You approve the price
The price is confirmed to you before anything begins, and it does not move afterwards unless you agree to something else.
The repair is carried out
Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.
Bench testing
Nothing is handed back untested. The repaired part and its neighbours are all checked first.
Back in your hands
Pick it up from Richmond Road or have it couriered back across Dublin. Either way it carries the 360-day warranty.
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.
Battery and charging circuit
The two most common causes and the two cheapest to put right.
Board inspection
Under magnification, where the answer is when everything else has been ruled out.
Boot to a recovery state
Which separates a software problem from a hardware one before anything is replaced.
Storage integrity
Where the fault points that way, since it decides whether the data comes back.
Is anything on the device at risk?
Nothing about this repair requires reading what is on the device, and nobody here does.
Testing is a different matter. To prove a repair works we have to turn the device on and use it, which sometimes means asking for your passcode. Say no if you prefer and we will show you exactly which checks we cannot complete without it. Where you do give it, it is written on the paper docket and the docket is shredded. There is deliberately no field for a passcode in our system.
Take a backup before you come in. It is free, it takes two minutes on a device that still works, and it is the one thing nobody regrets having done.
Will it still survive a splash?
After any repair, ours included, work on the assumption that the device is no longer water resistant.
The rating on the box was measured once, on a sealed unit, in controlled conditions. It was never a promise about the device three years later. Adhesive hardens, seals compress and a single drop can break the seal without leaving a mark you would notice.
We reseal with fresh adhesive and it does a real job: rain, splashes and a wet counter are all fine. A submerged phone is not, and we would rather say that plainly than let you find out.
If yours goes near water regularly, say so at the counter and we will tell you what the adhesive covers and what it does not.
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.
Assessed first, then quoted. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.
Often, and tell us that is the priority before we start. Recovering data and repairing a phone are sometimes done in a different order, and choosing wrong can cost you both.
Batteries fail suddenly more often than people expect, particularly in cold weather and particularly once they are a few years old. It is worth checking before assuming the worst.
No. It is free, you are told what has failed and what it costs, and there is no fee if we cannot fix it.
Usually not, which is the good news. Chargers, batteries and software account for most of them.
Usually same day. Where a fault only appears under load we sometimes have to leave it running, and we say so at the counter rather than leaving you wondering.

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!
