Warning: moisture in the USB port

[Janwy]

Galaxy S22 Ultra

It shows warning message when I plug it in to my PC through USB port. "Moisture or foreign material in the USB port" it said.

I'm sure that there's no moisture or dust in the USB port. And the same USB port works fine with my other two (2) Samsung's phones.

Now it's making hard time to transfer photos to my PC.

Anyone also experience this?

the other users once experienced the same issue. just charge your device wirelessly for some time like a week like that, and this problem will be disappeared by itself

Do you encounter the same error when charging?
Anyway, you could use samsung flow app to transfer photos to your pc. It works brillliantly.

Only happen when connected to PC. Not on adapter. Cannot find Samsung Flow in Samsung Store.

I see.
Anyway, you should be able to find samsung flow in galaxy store. I'm using similar S22U. Btw, you need to install the same app in your pc as well. Files or pictures are transferred just like a normal whatsapp style with no resolution compression.
All the best.

Advised by Samsung online customer service, I cleared USBSettings cache, and problem solved, for now.

Go to Settings > Apps > Show System Apps (in the sort menu) > search for USB settings > Clear Cache
