What this fixes

The faults a rear camera repair puts right.

  • A rattle when the camera opensThe stabiliser has come loose. You can hear it if you shake the phone gently near your ear, and it will not settle on its own.
  • The app opens to a black screenThe module is not being seen at all. Sometimes the camera, sometimes the connection to the board.
  • Only one of the lenses is affectedUseful to know. The wide, ultra wide and telephoto are separate modules and the price is not the same.
  • Spots or haze in every photoDust or moisture behind the lens. It shows worst against a bright sky.
  • Something rattles when you shake the phoneDamaged stabilisation. That is a module replacement rather than a clean.
  • A purple or green blob in the corner of every shotLight getting in past a damaged seal, usually after a drop or a poor repair.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely the camera?

Cameras are the repair where software and hardware look most alike from the outside, so it is worth checking two things before booking.

IfPhotos are hazy but the glass looks intact
Look at the lens in a strong light for internal condensation. If there is moisture behind it this is liquid damage, and a new camera fitted into a wet phone will fog too.
IfOnly the zoom is soft and the main lens is sharp
That is the telephoto module rather than the whole array. It is a different part and usually a different price, so ask before booking the full repair.
IfThe lens glass looks cracked in a raking light
That is the cover glass and not the camera. It is the cheaper of the two by a distance.
IfIt went soft after a screen repair elsewhere
The front camera sits near the display connectors and is easy to disturb. Worth checking before assuming a module failed.
IfIt is only bad in low light
Compare it against another phone of the same model first. Some of what people take for a fault is how the phone has always performed.

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 Google 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.

We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Google 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.

    Genuine, OEM and aftermarket: what the words actually mean

    What the €190 includes

    • The replacement camera module fitted and seated
    • Camera glass replaced where it is part of the assembly
    • Focus, stabilisation and every lens tested
    • 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.

    Cameras are modules rather than tuned panels, so the tier gap is narrower than it is on a screen.

    iMEND Premium

    Original or manufacturer-grade part

    The manufacturer's own module. On phones that calibrate the camera to the board this is the tier least likely to produce a notice in settings.

    Priced at the counter

    Value Edition

    Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard

    Made to the original specification and tested before fitting. On an older phone this is usually the sensible call.

    Priced at the counter

    The €190 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. 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.

    Check whether it is the lens cover glass rather than the module first. That is a different and much cheaper part, and half the blurry cameras that come in here need it rather than a camera.

    The parts we use, in full

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Two minutes online, or straight in the door at 4 Richmond Road. The more you can say about when it started, the faster we get to the cause.

    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 get the exact figure before any work starts. Nothing else happens without asking you first.

    The repair is carried out

    Done at our Drumcondra bench by the technicians who do this every day.

    Bench testing

    We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.

    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.

    Every lens

    Wide, ultra wide and telephoto where fitted, because replacing one can disturb the others.

    Stabilisation

    Checked in video, since that is what most people notice when it is wrong.

    Focus at close range and at distance

    A module can focus perfectly at arm's length and never lock at two metres.

    Video stabilisation

    Recorded while walking, because that is the only way a failing stabiliser shows itself.

    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?

    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.

    Asked all the time

    Pixel 9 Pro XL screen questions.

    €190, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone 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.

    It can be. Focus motors fail on their own, and moisture gets behind a lens without the phone ever being submerged. It is worth a free diagnostic before you pay for a part.

    Look at the glass over the lens in bright light at an angle. Cracks and deep scratches show clearly, and where they are there that is almost always the cause. The two are different parts at different prices and we confirm which before ordering.

    No. Polishing removes material and leaves the glass optically worse than the scratch did. Replacing the cover glass is the proper fix and it is not expensive.

    A camera repair does not touch storage, so nothing already on the phone is at risk.

    Genuine service parts where they exist for the model, and premium aftermarket where they do not. You are told which one before you agree to the repair.

    Diagnosed, not guessed

    Every device is tested before we quote, so you are not paying for a part that was never the problem.

    Parts that last

    Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.

    Your data stays yours

    Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.

    No fix, no fee

    If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.

    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.
