ANDROID | How to dry the ports of my cell phone
The solutions will depend on the equipment you have at home. There are some tricks that you can apply or resort to not so common equipment at home to dry the USB port and achieve a safe connection to the electrical system. First remember to turn off the phone to avoid unnecessary risks and unplug the charger to proceed to dry the equipment.
The most immediate thing you can do is shake the USB cable and the cell phone Android gently to remove any excess water or surface moisture.
Another option is to use an absorbent paper towel or a soft, dry cloth to carefully dry the phone’s USB ports and the connection cable. Be careful with the components. You can help yourself with a toothpick to make the cloth enter the smallest areas. Be careful, very delicately so as not to break anything.
If you have canned compressed air or hand ball inflators, you can use these to blow dry air into the USB ports and the connector on the connecting cable. Don’t even think about blowing out of your mouth because saliva micromolecules will enter the USB ports.
If the humidity persists despite the above tips, you can place your Android phone and the connection cable in a container with desiccant, such as uncooked rice or silica gel packets. Let them sit for several hours or even overnight.
Finally, you have to wait an hour to make sure that both the Android phone and the connection cable are completely dry before trying to use them again. If the problem continues, we recommend calling a technician or testing which device is causing the problem. Try another USB cable on your cell phone to determine if it is your device that is in trouble or the cable itself.
