Our mobiles have a large number of sensors that ensure their correct operation. On many occasions, their work is essential to prevent serious internal damage from occurring. Therefore, on many occasions it may be difficult for us to understand why certain messages appear. LG mobiles may display a warning, which blocks their charging due to the presence of moisture. Let’s see why this happens and how to avoid it.
For many years, manufacturers struggled to offer the submersible mobile label with guarantees. We know that humidity is a bad companion to the internal components of our mobile, for this reason, the IP68 certification seems essential to avoid damage. There are several LG mobiles that can “take a dip” without fear.
Why the notice appears
However, many users receive a message stating “Load blocked by moisture . “ It is a protection system that tries to avoid short circuits derived from water activity with our charger. Let’s take a look at the main reasons why this message appears and how to avoid it.
After wetting it
It is the main reason why this message appears. In this case, our LG mobile will block the load to avoid possible damage . For the message to disappear we will have to do the following:
- Dry the connector as well as possible after wetting it. For this we can use a dry cloth or expose it for a few seconds to the air of a dryer at a reasonable distance and not too hot. We can also use a brush to clean the connector
- Use a paper napkin, but be careful not to leave any debris inside the charging port, as this could prevent the correct connection with the charging cable
- It is recommended to wait a few minutes before charging the device, after having exposed it to water.
- Remove any case you have: It is very possible that condensation will be created between the mobile and its insulating layer, causing the port to detect humidity and the system to block the charge.
- Rice has always been successful. Putting the terminal in a bowl full of rice can kill moisture, but is rice really good for a wet mobile?
- Separate the pieces that are possible: SIM card, memory card …
It has not got wet and the message appears
In this case, the detector disables the load because it believes it is exposed to moisture. In this case there are several cases that can cause the message to appear.
- Mobile during the shower: if we have had the mobile in the bathroom during a hot shower, it is possible that the humidity has lodged in the charging port. At that moment the message will appear, since although we believe that it is completely dry, internally it may have traces of moisture.
- Dirt in the charging port: Dust and dirt may trigger this notice. If we are sure that there are no traces of moisture, we can start thinking about cleaning this connector to make the message disappear and allow us to charge.
Disable option
Like any sensor, you may experience accuracy problems over time. At that point, the solution to stop the message from appearing is to disable humidity detection . For this we introduce the code * # 546368 # * 870 # on our mobile. Then we check the SVC Menu option and once inside we uncheck the option, “Moisture detection”.
