[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] David Vlk:
In the manual Samsung says only that it is not supposed to go into "big ocean waves". So I supppose it is ok to take it into a quiet sea. Samsung also says that you must rinse it in fresh water if it got in contact with other liquid than fresh water. I did rinse it in fresh water. Just a note - I did not plan to dive my phone - it was an accident.

On the other hand I belive my phone will die anyway sometime between 2 years and day and 2 years and 3 months of age. All of my Samsung products had significant problems just after my 2 year warranty ended. SGS2 corrosion, SGS3 bad memory on the mainboard, SGS4 "insert SIM card" problem. Unfortunately in terms of specifications Samsung is always the only solution and I also do not believe that a different brand would do better. All products today are designed to die after 2 years.

Has anyone an experinece with the Samsung insurance in such cases? I have an insurance but I do not know if I can now go to Samsung and claim my insurance knowing that at the moment my phone works ok. But yes I belive the salt once it had been there will eat my phone alive soon or later ...

Hi had the same issue after i tried it for underwater movie clip in Thailand. The error is probably because of salt due to sea water. I washed it with tap water for few seconds and let it dry under sun for 15 min. This solved the problem

My G935F installed the latest Telstra/Samsung Security patch last night.

This is a carrier locked device.

Supposedly there were more Battery & Bluetooth optimizations with this patch.

Unfortunately there is now a bug that see's my car/desk docks no longer working. i get an "Check Port, Moisture has been detected. To Charge your device, make sure your charger/USB port is dry." error.

I can confirm it is a Car / Desktop Dock Only detection, as the charger works fine when plugged into any other usb cable other than a Car or Desk dock.

Phone has never been wet!

This has now rendered my car dock useless.

I have rebooted the phone 3 times since i installed the update.

Can these updates be undone?

Thanks.

I got this issue 5 days after connecting my phone to a vr for the first time. Saw other people had similar problems online, no solutions. I uninstalled oculus and vr apps. Cleared cache. It only started working after clearing the cache.

Got the moisture detected two hours after a quick dip in the swimming pool. A reboot and tried a different charging cable and it charged fine. Switch back to the white Samsung cable and it continues to charge but not fast charge. 5 hours later, I tested again and it said fast charging. So the moisture detector works as it should. I've now dunk this phone twice although less than 5 minutes each time.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] mjjcb:
I had this start happening out of nowhere. I never permit contact with water intentionally. The only thing I can think that might have caused it is steam from the shower, but really??

So I took it into Sprint after a few days, several different cords, and using a q-tip & hair dryer didn't solve it. They used a brush with an alcohol solution, and it works now (so far). They said it could well have been the steam, but the heck! I've never had this issue with any phone that wasn't water resistant, but steam impacts a device that is? Ridiculous.

This better not be a regular thing. Fortunately, I was able to use wireless charging until I took it in.

I have a great Motorola Car Charger that has worked with X-10, Casio MilSpec Tough Phone, Samsung S3, Note 1 & 4 with no issues. As soon as I plug it into my S7Edge, it gives me the dreaded moisture detected error message even though it hasn't gotten wet. It has no issues at all with several other Samsung and other brand USB chargers. I suspect something in the way the Motorola Car Charger us wired. This is very very frustrating!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] yoonus:
I am having same issue with my S7 and Motorola car charger. S7 charges fine with another car charger or other chargers at home.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Isbdeep:
Came across this thread after getting the "moisture detected" message on my S7 Active. This was after the first time I took it into water, in my shorts pocket while wading through the swimming pool for about 5 mins. I was not trying to test the water resistance intentionally but was not concerned since S7 Active is supposedly tougher than the regular S7. Was disappointed to see the screen flash the message upon charging but then I had not dried the phone completely, which was not a very smart thing. Long story short: Hair dryer at low for a minute, wiping charging port with a q tip and sticking in rice for 15 mins and the fast charging works. It had not done so after the hair dryer and the q tip, but I am not sure which was the definitive solution. Sharing this in case someone else experiences the same. Cheers 😁

Hey all,

So I I went to the ocean with my kids and ended up going out into the water with phone in my pocket (not realizing it) for nearly an hour it was submerged in salt water. It took 22 hours before it charged again, however I did do a few other things in the mean time. Mostly everything I tried, rice, air, hair dryer, heater, vaccuum none of these worked, I'm assuming the reason is because of the salt from the salt water.

What worked. I filled up a tupperware dish with 90% rubbing alcohol and submerged the phone in it for about 15 minutes. pulled it out and dried it off, then placed it in rice. After 30 minutes in the rice I double checked the port. Its now charging, not just any charging, fast charging. Something you could try if nothing else works.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shah22:
So i must be surprised that anyone expects it to outlast in submerged water, when it couldnt withstand atmospheric humidity , and yes thats my experience , just my one and a half month old s7 edge , never ever dared to even drink water or tea near it , that it may not ever get water contact , and also put front and back covers on it to keep it protected... only usb charging port , speaker and audio jack was naked , i happen to live in quite polluted and dusty atmosphere due to industrial area , and also its quite hot and humid here too , but i used many phones and no one ever had any problems like this , so dust often got in sides of the cover which i often cleaned , but i never cared to saw the usb port as i was totally unaware that it could cause any problem , maybe my mistake , so few days ago i saw that silver paint near usb port was peeling off on its own and some green hue around it... damn i was like wtf , and also when i looked at my charger's metal pin , it was having some green color around the metal which goes in the usb port of my s7e but phone was working okay and no normal charging problems ... because i never used fast charging as it causes heat issues, so when i looked at its usb charger port , i was devastated , damn it was green all over the walls , i never saw anything like that, i thought it may be battery leakage , so posted a thread here , so i was advised to use rubbing alcohol to clean it using q tip, which is not available in my area , only denatured alcohol available .. so i only used q tip to get that green thing out and that i think now of fungal growth .. due to excessive dust or humidity ? Come on samsung not a device of 1/20th of its price i had previously caused me this problem , and now you know what ? When i saw this thread i wanted to check my fast charging again after all this ( as i disabled fast charging after 1st charge when i bought, because it caused heat issues), so when i enabled it again now , fast charging WON'T WORK AT ALL , but no humidity or moisture warning , so i would never trust samsung for quality ..

So long story short guys... a phone that couldnt withstand dust or atmospheric humidity and gets fungus growth around its naked parts , how can anyone expect it to resist water ? And i dont know what to do about fast charging now , this is the reality of these flagships guys , better had i gotten a lower range midphone and gave the extra money to a needy that may have some benefit instead of these **tards samsung

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magissia:
Greetings,

Since some system versions, EAS doesn't work using ASUS's mail client.

I usually use my device with root and XPosed framework, but doing a factory reset and reflashing system partition didn't improve the situation.

The mail clients fails to fetch new mails most of the time, i say most because once a month, some time, there is a new mail notification (but the mail that got sync are weeks old already)

I wasn't able to reproduce the problem on IMAP accounts. I was able to reproduce the problem with two Microsoft accounts (on different microsoft's servers) and on one company exchange server.

At this point I don't know what to do to resolve this problem as I wasn't able to pinpoint to a 100% accuracy what cause this (but I've seen numerous report about EAS syncing problem that are specific to ASUS mail client) and I really want to have the ASUS email client working rather than replacing it (because i'm not aware of another mail client that supports the "VIP" system)

Thanks for reading to this point.

Best regards,

Magissia

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yth919:
I also got this problem and asked in this forum, so far no one can provide a 100% work solution.

I solved this problem by restoring my phone with twrp backup. But I have to tell you that not all the backups worked

Only 1 or 2 backups can successfully restore my phone to its original status, i still have no idea why:(

I also figured that G3 from HKG still have no MM update, maybe this network problem the reason of delay?

Another method that worked once for me was to insert a sim card of the same carriers to the phone after downgrading to KK/LP

But again, it doesn't work on everyone's phone, you may give it a try anyway:p
