    Yesterday for the first time I received a notification "Moisture in the USB port" or something like that and since yesterday it pops up once in a while, e.g. today 4 times and it doesn't disappear I have to restart the phone and sometimes it disappears and sometimes not, the phone was never in the water and even near her and now the question: why is this happening?

    Man will also get wet more than once, and not necessarily at the pool .... The nest could attract moisture from even carrying it in his pocket, backpack, holding it with a wet hand ... I recommend cleaning the nest with a brush dipped in isopropanol.

    Now I have a completely dry phone and this is also a notification, what is this isopropanol?

    This is a special cleaning alcohol.

    The notification has not disappeared all night and when I restart the phone does not disappear.

    You have to disassemble the phone and watch the disc especially around the USB connector.
