Does your LG mobile have moisture blocked charging in the USB port? This is a common notice in the terminals of the South Korean company. Above all, in those mobile resistant to water or submersible, such as the LG G8, LG G6, G7 etc. The error is caused because the system detects moisture in the USB port, especially after getting wet. To avoid battery failure, charging is locked until sensors detect that the device is completely dry. To solve this error you can follow these 5 solutions
Dry the USB port of your LG mobile
Dry the USB C or micro USB port of your LG mobile. Just blow lightly to remove moisture from the connector. You can also wipe with a dry, lint-free cloth or pat your hand to get the water droplets to fall off. Don't use a hair dryer. It is not necessary and could damage the connectors in the heat. Don't use paper either, as it could get pieces inside. It is also not advisable to introduce the mobile in rice and of course, do not put grains of rice in the port.
Wait 30 minutes to reconnect the charger
LG recommends waiting a while (for 30 minutes) until you reconnect the cable, as there may still be some moisture in the port. Charging will be blocked and will not affect the device, but it could damage the charger.
The warning appears but I have not wet my LG mobile
Notice of blocked charging due to humidity detection in the USB port on an LG mobile.
This notice may also arise for other reasons. For example , because there is dust or dirt in the port. Try to remove the dirt by blowing on the connector or with a toothpick. Of course, very carefully so as not to damage the connectors. It may also be because there are other wet connectors, such as headphones, speakers, etc. Dry the device well.
Try another cable
If after 30 minutes and after checking that the connector is dry, the charge is still blocked, try another cable. In many cases, mobile phones do not support charging from a non-original cable, so it is recommended that you use the charger that comes in the box with your mobile.
Turn off the warning
If you find that the warning continues to appear and the terminal is completely dry, you can deactivate it. Of course, this option is not the most recommended, since it could affect the terminal in the future. Therefore, deactivate the warning only if you see that it is giving you problems and that the terminal is dry. If not, you'd better follow the steps and wait for the terminal to support the upload again. If in the future the mobile gets wet and the warning is deactivated, you could have problems with the charge and battery.
How do I disable the USB Moisture Locked Charge notice? Go to the phone app and dial the following code: * # 546368 # * 870 #. Then click on SVC Menu. Go to the option that says 'Moisture Detection Settings'. Turn off the option. Now the notice will no longer appear. You can reactivate it by following the same steps.
