Moisture Detection issue on S21 FE

[Shivam762]

I am receiving a warning on my phone (S21 FE 5G) since yesterday about

" Moisture or foreign materials detected in USB port"

1. I have tried cleaning with hair dryer, tried to shake it gently and kept phone switched off over night.

2. Tried cleaning USB cache

3. Tried resetting setting.

But issue has not been solved.

Phone charging works with same cable for a while and then it disconnect saying moisture has been detected.

Sometimes it works on power off mode, sometime it doesn't.

I have attached a screenshot of the warning.

Warning of Mositure/ Foreign materials

You can clean the port with thin cloth and thin needle (back of the needle)that can interest easily inside

Thank you for helping me out but sadly it doesn't work, I saw the video. Tried everything but still warning sign persists. Will wait for a day or two.
