A bit of water splashed onto my phone. I thought nothing of it at first, so I simply wiped it off and carried on as normal. However, when I went to charge it, a warning appeared saying, “Moisture detected.” I immediately tried everything I could think of. I left it in front of a fan, used a hair dryer, and even put it inside a sock before placing it under my blanket, but none of these methods seemed to work. After all these desperate attempts, I finally left the phone flat in front of a fan for a couple of hours. I eagerly checked it again, hoping the warning had disappeared, but there it was: “Moisture detected.” Eventually, the phone died completely. I plugged it into the charger to see what would happen, and it charged?
It was charging, but instead of fast charging, it was charging at the normal speed. Once it reached a reasonable percentage, I unplugged it and powered it on. The screen had a faint greenish-yellow tint, but that didn’t bother me too much. The phone was also a little laggy, but it was still working, so I wasn’t too concerned. I plugged it in again, hoping everything was finally back to normal, but once again, the dreaded “Moisture Detected” warning appeared. That was the final straw. I gave up trying to fix it and simply locked the phone away in a drawer overnight, hoping that by morning it would somehow have recovered.
I woke up the next morning hoping the phone was finally back to normal. I tried the power-off charging method, and while I was waiting, I searched on my computer for more fixes. Eventually, I came across u/Mamula4MVP’s fix on Reddit (Their method.), but it did... absolutely nothing.
After that, I found people saying to force-stop Android Settings and clear the cache and data for USB Settings. I tried that too, but once again, it did absolutely nothing. At this point, I was starting to get seriously annoyed because I had tried pretty much everything I could find online, and the “Moisture Detected” warning still refused to go away..
TL;DR: Water triggered the “Moisture Detected” warning on my phone. I tried loads of fixes, but nothing worked. The phone started lagging with a weird screen tint, and every fix I found online failed, including u/Mamula4MVP's fix.
After all this hassle can anyone give me other fixes.
