Freezing, crashing, endless storage warnings or a phone wrecked by a failed update. Software repairs start at £25 at the counter, and keeping your data intact is always the first priority.
Software faults imitate hardware faults constantly. These are the tells.
Corrupt system files or one badly behaved app. It feels like a dying phone and usually is not.
Book now →An interrupted update leaves the system half-installed. Recoverable, and usually with everything still on the phone.
Book now →Corrupted caches or frameworks, not thirty broken apps. One repair fixes the lot.
Book now →Ballooned system data that settings cannot clear. We can, without wiping the phone.
Book now →Interrupted updates head the list: the battery dies or the connection drops mid-install and the system is left half-written. Years of accumulated file corruption comes second, especially on phones that have run near-full storage for a long time, because a full phone cannot do its housekeeping. Failed jailbreaks and dodgy sideloaded apps cause a steady trickle. And underneath a small but important slice of cases sits genuinely failing storage hardware, which no amount of resetting will cure and which we test for specifically, because mistaking one for the other wastes your money.
Software repairs start at £25, diagnosis is free, and we protect your data at every step.
We identify software versus failing storage first, because they present identically and cost differently. Genuine software faults get repaired or reflashed with your data preserved wherever the fault physically allows it, and where a wipe is truly unavoidable we secure a full backup first and tell you before proceeding. We also test the battery, because a failing cell causes restarts that look exactly like a software problem. Most software jobs are finished the same day you walk in.
Usually not. Most software repairs keep your data intact, and we back up before any step that risks it. The dangerous move is a home restore attempt, so come in before trying one.
One of the most recoverable faults we see, and typically with data intact. Bring it in as it is.
System data bloat. The phone cannot clean its own house, but we can from the bench, no wipe needed.
A reset erases everything and cures nothing if the storage is failing. For £25 you keep your data and find out the real cause.
