12+ years repairing phones in Kampala, Uganda · Independent workshop, not affiliated with Tecno

Technician carefully repairing a smartphone with precision tools

Tecno makes some of the most popular phones in East Africa, with frequent new models in each series. Screens and parts differ a lot between models that look alike, for example AMOLED on many Camon models and LCD on most Spark and Pop models. That's why we confirm your exact model before quoting.

Tecno, Infinix and itel phones still under the manufacturer's warranty can be repaired free for covered faults at Carlcare, the brands' official service network. We repair out-of-warranty phones, accidental and water damage, and board-level faults that warranty doesn't cover.

Common faults

Common Tecno problems and how we fix them

Symptoms can have more than one cause, so our technicians confirm the diagnosis before recommending a repair.

Tecno screen damage

What you may notice

  • Cracked glass
  • Lines or colour patches
  • Black screen but the phone rings
  • Touch not working or touching by itself
Causes and how we fix it

Possible causes

  • Impact damage to the LCD or AMOLED panel
  • A loose or damaged display connector
  • Liquid reaching the display

What we check: We confirm your exact model, inspect the connector and test the phone with the display before recommending a replacement.

How we repair it: We replace the full display assembly using a screen matched to your model. AMOLED and LCD screens differ in price and quality, and we explain the options before you choose.

Tecno charging problems

What you may notice

  • Phone charges slowly
  • Cable only works at a particular angle
  • Charging keeps disconnecting
  • Phone does not recognise the charger
Causes and how we fix it

Possible causes

  • Dirt in the charging port
  • A worn USB-C or micro-USB port
  • A damaged charging sub-board or flex
  • A fault in the charging circuit

What we check: We inspect the charging port, charging flex, connector condition and relevant power circuitry to find the actual cause before recommending a repair.

How we repair it: On many Spark, Pop and Pova models the port sits on a small replaceable sub-board. If the fault is on the main board, we explain the board-level options.

Board-level repairs

Advanced Tecno motherboard repairs

Where other shops replace the whole board or give up, our technicians trace the fault to the failed component, using 12+ years of microsoldering experience.

  • Dead Tecno diagnosis

    We measure power draw to separate battery, software and board faults, then repair the failed component instead of guessing.

  • Charging and power circuit repair

    Board-level repair when the port and battery are fine but the phone still won't charge or power on.

Your choice of parts

Which replacement part is right for your Tecno?

For many repairs, especially screens and batteries, more than one type of part is available. We tell you which options exist for your exact model, how they differ, and the warranty on each, so you choose with full information.

Original / manufacturer parts

Made by or for the phone’s manufacturer. Usually the closest match to how the phone left the factory, and usually the most expensive. Availability varies by model.

High-quality compatible parts

Made by other suppliers to fit your model. A good-value choice for many repairs. Quality varies between suppliers, so we only fit parts we have tested.

Some differences can show after a repair, for example screen brightness and colour, or a "non-genuine part" notice on some phones. We explain these before you decide.

How it works
FAQ

Tecno repair questions

My Tecno is still under warranty. Should I come to you?

If the fault is covered, Carlcare repairs in-warranty Tecno phones free. Come to us when the warranty has ended, or for damage it doesn't cover.

My Tecno is completely dead. Can it be repaired?

Often. We check the battery, charging and the main board's power circuits to find out why, then quote.

Can you change my phone's IMEI?

No. Changing an IMEI is illegal, and we decline every such request.

Do you repair Tecno keypad phones?

Yes, for popular models where parts are available: screens, keypads, charging and batteries.

Can you replace a cracked Tecno screen?

Yes, for most Camon, Spark, Pova and Pop models, subject to parts availability. We confirm your exact model first because similar-looking Tecno phones often use different screens.

Why are some Tecno screens more expensive than others?

Many Camon and Phantom models use AMOLED displays, which cost more than the LCD screens used in most Spark and Pop models.

Can you unlock my Tecno if I forgot the password?

Yes, if you can show that the phone is yours. Removing a lock usually erases the data on the phone, so we explain this before starting.

Will I lose my data during a repair?

Screen, battery and charging repairs do not normally affect your data, but software repairs and unlocks may. Please back up important data first where possible.

How long does a Tecno repair take?

It depends on the model, the fault and part availability. We give you an estimate after diagnosis.

Can you diagnose a Tecno phone if I don't know what's wrong?

Yes. Describe what the phone is doing and we will find the cause before recommending any repair.
