Android10 Note9 charging port wet error

[maxfootball18]

Finally got the update!

But now my phone says the usb is wet.

Tried androidSystem and usbSettings force kill and cache wipe but it doesn't work. I also tried cleaning with a pin, air, dryer but nope. That's a 48h wait for that thing to work.

Anyway, if someone have an idea instead of paying $120 or opening the phone myself to change the port ($8) 😁

Live in Montreal so the heat in the summer, winter hot + cold might have killed my usb port. This phone never went into water...

After the Android 10 update. It is recommend go to the recovery mode to perform a Wipe Cache Partition. Try and see if this fix your issue.

just tried, it's still there sadly 🥺

Some other members suggested that use a bag that contain rice. Put your phone inside covered with rice over night. This can fix the wet issue too.

i did blow very hot air inside the port from my gf air dryer and it's fine now 😁😁😁

[Tallman]

Yes, very hot will work. But there is a chance to damage the circuit board or some plastic parts in the phone 😨. Rice can absorb the water, but slowly. Anyway, glad you fix it.

Yeah, it's what i was afraid too 🥺

That happened to me with my S10 a few weeks ago, some snow got in my coat pocket and I just blown hot air in usb-c port and it was ok after.

@Tallman: this is an old joke...  He should hang it on a «sky hook»😀
