Hi all,
Since from 2 weeks , i am getting Pop up that my charging port is wet ,even port is dry and when i trying to charge not getting charge quickly and my BS2 adaptor doesn't work anymore after that issue and i have try to reset the mobile but same issue
So, i had searched issue in google and came to know many BS2 users facing the same issue on redit
Can anybody help in solving this issue?
will the issue solve if i try to downgrade to andriod 9?
I have the same issue, downgrading to android 9 seemed to have solved it but it came back after a couple of days, ended up upgrading to 10 again because it allows me to silence the notification, after the issue first appeared the included charger and cable stopped working for me and after using about 8 different cables i finally found one that allows me to fast charge using a different fast charger that came with my motorola phone. Hope you get to resolve the problem or stumble upon a permanent a solution.
Only solution for this problem is to physically change port on the phone. Go to nearest service center and change it. You can permanently damage your motherboard if you continue to use faulty charging port.

That would be true, if it's an actual hardware issue and not software... I receive this message too when I connect the Cooler Case. Then after connecting the phone to simply with it's cable to the charger, it disappears. So this is not a hardware but a software issue in Joy UI 11 probably.

Moisture detection control fuse needs to be physically damaged/blown in order to software "see" it as faulty and report water damage. So secondary board needs to be changed in order to fix this.
Too many Xiaomi devices comes to my service with this problem and there is no other "cure".

Okay but how come in my case it only happens if I attach my Cooler Case? It's sucks that I can't use this cooler though. :/ App won't install for some reason.

Probably something wrong with type-c connector on cooler. And as for app, are you sure it's needed? I guess when in "shark" mode other apps not needed for peripherals.

Well I noticed that when we try to download the old Shark Arsenal app, it already mentions that it has been built in function into Shark Space 3.0 which we currently have with the Joy UI 11 update, the FunCooler works without any problem. The Cooling case however don't. The Shark Space app does indeed have that section called as "Shark Cooleer" which is the app name too. Still it does not recognizes even though it's paired through Bluetooth. :/ I hope the recognition is not made by the Type-C port, cause btw that works too. I mean i can easily charge my phone through the cooler case's type-c port. And it's even fast charging so yea. I still think the Shark Cooler app would be needed to control the cooler. Or I bought a faulty device. :/ Still without the app I cannot test it so yea.
Hey guys i had a same problem wet surface but i already blower it and let it rest for a day still i cant charge my black shark 2 any tips or should i bring it to the nearest service center?

I have a Samsung Vibrant T959 TMobile US with 2.1-update1, Baseband T959UVJI6.
The battery is fully charged, it registers in the phone as fully charged 100%, but when I hit the power button I get a progess wheel that gets stuck, then the phone just turns off. It never gets passed that wheel, it only displays for a second then dies.
However, when I plug in the USB and hit the power button, it comes right up like it should. Then I can unplug the usb and use the phone just fine. Its almost as if I need to jump-start the phone with a power source.
I have reset the phone, even re-flashed the stock firmware using Odin. Same results. I have even swapped batteries with a buddy just to see if that was the case, but I still got the same results.
Any advice or suggestions is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks Very Much In Advance!
Anybody? Any ideas?
Well, that is new to me...
I'll preface with, I have no clue how/why that is happening. But, this is what I would do:
1 - If really opposed to rooting, I'd call T-Mo / Samsung and get a replacement.
2 - If I liked my phone and wanted to make it better, I'd root it and flash a custom ROM. It likely would take care of the issue, as it clearly is not a hardware thing (well, I say clearly).
Worst case with #2, ODIN back to stock and then do option 1.
possible solution
also it says "USB connected" even when cable is unplugged? I had similar problem.. I tried everything, flashing, changing batteries.. none of that was useful. Then I find some post on some forum that says it might be corrosion, so i scratched my USB with thin wire and everything worked fine, but also scratching USB I was doing one more thing. In my opinion, I think that it's not corrosion. I think that USB is slightly bent (middle part of it), try to bent it in other direction, possible that it's too close to edge. That solved my problem. Tell me if this helpful for you, sorry about my english

i think i can get what you are saying, cleaning the usb port on the phone right??
BUT how does this affect turning the phone on?? if usb port is rusty, it will only affect charging, not turning the power on?
I experienced this identical issue last fall -- the USB would always say it was connected, wouldn't startup unless connected to actual USB, but otherwise worked fine.
Take your phone apart and look at the solder joints on your microUSB port... mine all had cracks in them or had broken free. I re-flowed the solder while holding the port down and it resolved my issues. (put on some flux, and run a hot soldering iron across the joints, clean up... it's not very difficult. just be sure you don't short out any of the pins.) I also added additional solder to the four points that just hold the mircoUSB to the circuit board. It's been rock solid since

See if there is a TV or electronic repair place still in business in your area. Or post an ad on CL asking someone with knowledge and skill to do it. Be careful they aren't an idiot just wanting 20 bucks and happen to own a soldering iron.

you could see if Cell Phone Repair/ is near you and describe to them what you want to do.
I would go through these guys they are top notch helped me when i soft bricked my wife's phone. He even convinced me that i could fix it myself when i was ready to send it to them for a jtag.
They can replace the usb plug if thats the issue.

I would test to see if my battery is bad first before i went about resoldering, it could easily be a bad battery.

No my stock battery is charging and i did buy a separate battery. same issue.
Ok so the USB port doesnt charge or show up on the computer, it was working then i had to bend the cable to certain angles for it to work then it stopped working completely is it possible to fix this?
Connection to the mainboard has broken.
Solution: Needs soldering
Probably not doable so just use a main battery charger and then use Dropbox for file transfers.
Verify that it isn't just the cable. Most of my cables have suffered from my wife walking off with the phone still attached. Had to find a really cheap source locally, fast
[EDIT]Some people may suggest using a dental tool, toothpick or strong pin to attempt a repair. If you do this, be sure to remove the battery before, just to ensure you don't short the pins and ruin your phone.
what do you mean toothpick fix how does that work?
Anybody know anywhere that can fix this? or someone or someway? whats this fixed talked about above?

Remove battery, then with a toothpick(doesn't conduct electricity), carefully clean out the usb port of the phone. you'd be amazed at the stuff that can lurk in there, fluff, potatoes etc.
did you have to bend the cable at the phone end or the middle, if middle it is more likely to be your cable that is duff.
If you get a new cable make sure it is a data cable (4 wires), not a charging one (only 2 wires)

This depends where you are in the world, in the UK there is a small oufit in South Wales that repairs the USB port for about £20 (google is your friend) but elsewhere I have no idea
My Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is 2 years old. The last few months, I have had problems charging the phone and connecting it to the computer.
In order to charge, I have to "wiggle" the cable into the right position. When I try connecting to the computer via cable, the phone appears to disconnect again within few seconds, and then reconnect - I am returned to the screen that shows the green android figure and that asks if I want to connect to the computer.
I have tried with a new USB cable. Charging gets easier (not so much "wiggling" required), but the problem with connecting to the computer is the same.
Does anyone know what the problem might be? Is this a hardware weakness, so that Sony should repair it? Or should I just buy a new phone?
Hardware Weakness
Should probably rephrase... Is this a KNOWN hardware weakness with this type of phone, so that it should be covered by the reclamation rights?
If not, the store will probably claim that this is my fault, or a device only expected to last 2 years, so that I have to buy a new phone.
Had a similar problem, solution?? Well is easy, if look (in your phone) into thd little microusb hole, youll find a little object like a sheet. Just move it. Up or down with a little screwdriver. Try the usb if not working move it upside down. JUST DO IT WITH CAUTION THAT PIECE IS TOO WEAK AND IS DANGEROUS. IT WORKED FOR ME BUT I CANNOT WARRANTY ITLL WORK FOR YOU

I've got the same problem.. but there is no sw solution (of course..), so you have to fix it manualy.. I wanted to do it myself, but there are too small micro ****s, so I left that... I'll try it later..
I just had the same problem as yours and I asked for a technician to solder a new USB port for me. And he did it, I no longer have this problem. It is a very annoying problem, sometimes when you're transferring datas, the USB would disconnect with a just a slight bump.
I've got this problem on my x10 also, but beware - it may be something as simple as the USB cable is worn out. I thought my problem was with the phone, until I used a car charger with it and it charged perfectly - no wiggling of the cable required.

Thanks for all the replies.
Unfortunately, it is easier to buy a new phone than to go through the 3-weeks process of having a service center determine if the problem can be solved and if it will cost me.
Fortunately, I'm able to use another phone to copy the data from my memory card onto my computer, before I switch to a new phone
To the last poster: As written, I tried with a new cable, without much luck.
Hi,
i bought a factory refurbished I9600F from aliexpress. It worked great for 3 days, then the phone became slow to respond, the screen was flickering in yellow-green tones, and then wouldn't come back on but stay black. (but I would still get notification sounds for incoming messages, the notification LED was still working, and the menu keys also light up when I press home/power).
Pulling the battery fixed the issue once, but the problem came back after 1 hour.
I managed to revive the phone once more by pulling the battery and holding the power button to drain all remaining power in the device. The phone was working again for a few hours, but now it's back to having a black screen and even the power drain method doesn't work anymore...
So i'm guessing that replacing the screen won't fix the issue, since the screen is working just fine for a a while (both image and touch are perfect) - but then somehow there must be some electrical issue that causes the graphics unit to malfunction.
I checked the easily accessible connector to the left side of the battery, but it seems that the screen is mainly connected via flex cables that cannot be accessed unless you heat up your device and pry out the screen.
I have found some information on the internet that pressing hard on the spot where the flex cable connector is might fix the problem, but this didn't work for me.
FYI, I'm running the default Samsung firmware the device shipped with and used Kies + OTA update to get the latest official FW. No rooting or any other mods. Just some regular apps installed.
Any recommendation what I could try to fix this problem? Thank you all!!!
BTW, I have found similar reports on the internet here:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s5/405238-galaxy-s5-static-screen-won-t-turn.html
But the linked how-to-fix guide states that heating up the display assembly is only recommended on devices with a broken screen... So now I don't want to risk breaking my working screen.
So mainly my options are
a) open the device to check the flex cable connection
b) buy a new battery to see if that solves if (some people have reported success with a different battery)
c) buy a new screen assembly on aliexpress for around €135 and hope that a new screen will fix it...
Thoughts?

sorry, i actually never was able to get this resolved. I tried removing the screen to get to the flex cable, but broke the screen because I hadn't heated up the glue enough...
Had to buy another device.
Sorry I don't have better news...

I'm going find out the cause for this issue. I've disassembled one device that only lights up when it is warm. If I put it in the cooler it refuses to light up for some time after that. I tried placing only the screen in the cooler, also only the phone body in the cooler, but couldn't find any difference doing this as it refuses to light up both times for a couple of minutes then it works great again.
I've ordered another device that had its screen shattered so I will try my current screen on that device.
It could be some internal hardware fault in the mobo, it could be the LCD connector having a bad connection somehow, it could be the screen assembly itself, but I will find out eventually.
I've seen many places on the internet where people say this is a software issue. There is a very simple answer to that question. How could it be a software issue if not even the boot logo shows up when you start the phone?
I will keep this thread updated.
Verified that this is a problem with the motherboard. What circuit on the motherboard could have problems with cold temperatures? The main power one? If so, I will try replacing it with a different one.
Update: Was not able to fix it. Motherboard is now scrap.
So after weeks of trying to figure this out I've found what's causing the problem. Not sure how to fix it. When the phone stays on the charger the rotate will stay on. If your rotating stopped before plugging your phone or the charger then simply plug in ur charger and then restart and once ur charger stays plugged in then it should auto rotate some people my need to restart more than once. So in my view I'm thinking there is some electrical problem or lack of power or some how it's linked to the USB port. Please try it and report if u get the same result. Hopefully this will lead to someone finding a solution. Maybe someone can change their USB port and let us know if that solved the problem.

most of auto rotation become malfunction is because lib file missing. especially if u're in custom rom or stock but doing some debloat.
check in your system/lib folder for file libgnustl_shared.so.
if missing, then auto rotate will not work. but in your case maybe hardware/sensor related problem.

It would seem like hardware because the file is there.

Ok. So I can say for sure my rotation issue is related to the usb port. At the begining when I plugged in the usb cable and restarted my phone the rotation would continue working until I removed the usb cable and even for a few minutes after removing it would still work
So what I did was get a very small piece of paper and made it into a little ball and push it under the contact of the usb port right up to the back so that the usb cable could still fit properly. The paper is just to brace the usb connection upwards a little and in doing do so my phone even charging better seeing I had charging issues so I guess it's part of the issue. Now I have normal rotation for weeks.
If rotation stops it's because the usb cable has crushed the paper too small so I just replace the paper but so far it's all good. I just dnt have the interest to do a usb port change but I think that would be a more permanent solve. Hope this helps. Just sharing my experience to those of you who have the same issue and can't find a fix.

Usb port changed and rotation working flawlessly. I even recorded over 6000 steps and more than 12 minutes walking. Notified by S health, haven't seen that in a long time

OK guys sad to say I'm bk on this because after awhile my rotation stopped again. I don't know if the replacement USB port is going bad again as it was a Used USB port or its something else but I have found another fix which seems to be working a few days now.
So this fix will require disassembling your phone again.
What I did was disassemble my device and when I reached to the main board I used a little screw driver to pry off the shine piece of covering that covers some of the chips which includes the gyroscope chip. U guys can google to see where the chip that controls the gyroscope is on your s5.
Then I folded a piece of tape and placed it on top of the gyroscope chip just thick enough so the metal covering when place back on it will squeeze the tape down on the chip. After all that is done reassemble ur device and try it out.
On a side not my proximity sensor was not working properly either and I did the same thing. Folded a piece of tape and place it behind the proximity sensor it will be tight again when phone is reassembled. So far its been working for me so I hope this helps.
I know its an old device and most of u might not see the need to fix a device this old but for those of you who like tinkering with ur device like myself u should try and let me know if it works for u.
HAPPY NEW YEAR.

i have samsung SM-G906S. lately i have been facing the problems with auto rotation, proximity sensor and auto brightness adjustment. All these have stopped working. These problems are not with hardware because they vanish when i factory reset the phone of reinstall OS using samsung smart switch. but these problems occur again after some time (a month or two). seems like some problem with samsung firmware. too bad the official support from samsung has stopped for this phone.
