How to Fix Moisture Detected On Samsung Note 20 Ultra

Getting a Moisture Detected notification on your Samsung Galaxy device is simply a feature that alerts you when your phone comes in contact with liquid. High-end Samsung phones, including smartphones in the Galaxy S series and Galaxy Z series, have moisture detection sensors and an IP68 rating to protect the phone from short-circuiting. If you are getting the Moisture Detected notification on Samsung Note 20 Ultra, it may be due to Moisture. 

Receiving this error message doesn’t always mean that your phone has come in contact with water. You may face this issue due to the humid atmosphere if you live in a hot and humid environment. The reason behind facing this error can be due to the presence of Moisture in the charging port, dust particles in the USB port, or a damaged charging port due to corrosion or negligence of usage.

Fix For Galaxy Note 20 Moisture Detected Issue

In this article, we will be discussing how you can fix Moisture Detected on Samsung Note 20 Ultra.

Clean The Port 

If you face the issue, you should try cleaning the USB port. Cleaning the port most probably cleans the port of Moisture. To do so, follow the steps given below-

• Try using a soft dry cloth to clean the phone. You can also place the phone in the open air or under the ceiling fan to evaporate the Moisture. 
• Now, take a toothpick, wrap it with tissue paper or thin cotton cloth, and clean your USB port from within. 
• You can clean the USB port using the alcohol swap and let the port dry. 
• A hairdryer can also evaporate the Moisture from the charging port and fix this issue. 
• We suggest you keep or stuff your phone in a bag of dry rice and leave it for an hour. This will absorb the moisture from the phone and help fix the issue. 
• If you do not prefer using a bag of rice to absorb moisture, you can use silica gel which is far better moisture absorbent than the rice. Keep your phone in a box with SIlica gel to absorb the moisture from the phone. 

What To Do If The Port Is Not Damaged, But You Get The Error?

You can follow the steps below if you are getting the error even after cleaning the port. However, you should only do so if you feel there is no problem with the port and you are getting the issue due to some bug. 

• Use a wireless charger to charge the device. If you get this error even though there is no moisture or damage on the charging port, the temporary solution will be to use a wireless charger to charge your device. 
• If you do not wish to spend on a wireless charger and don’t already have it, you can turn off your phone and charge it. 
• You can turn off the notification by force-stopping the Android System. To do so, follow the steps given below-
  • Open the Settings on your phone and tap on Apps.
  • Now, click on three dots on the top right corner and tap on Show System apps.
  • Here, search for Android System and tap on it. This will open the App info section.
