Galaxy Tab A 9.7 (2015) Repair Same-Day North Providence RI

About this repair

The Tab A 9.7 (2015) runs an unusual 4:3 1024x768 PLS LCD that we source carefully because the SM-T550 glass and digitizer are laminated as one layer. This Snapdragon 410 tablet still charges over legacy micro-USB, a port that wears loose with age, and we rebuild it alongside the large 6,000mAh battery glued beneath its clip-fit plastic back. Owners of the S Pen SM-P550 edition also get Wacom digitizer recalibration so pen pressure tracks accurately after the swap.

My Tab A 9.7 won't charge — is the micro-USB port fixable?

Yes; the SM-T550's micro-USB port is a common wear point after a decade of plugging in, and we replace the charging flex so the 6,000mAh battery powers up again.

Can the square 4:3 screen on my Tab A 9.7 (2015) still be replaced?

We fit the 1024x768 PLS assembly for the T550; because its glass and LCD are bonded together, we replace the complete panel to restore the squarer 9.7-inch display.

Does my S Pen still work after a screen replacement on the 9.7?

On the SM-P550 S Pen edition we recalibrate the Wacom digitizer after fitting the new panel so pen pressure and hover stay accurate.
