Hello,
I recently splashed a bit of ocean water on my phone while on vacation. it didn't seem like much at the time, but I may have caused some damage to the usb-c port.
After drying it off, I received the "moisture detected" notification when attempting to charge it. When I got home, I left in some rice overnight, and it will now charge, but only when plugged into a computer or lower wattage charger.
It's been about a week, and it still won't fast-charge, nor do my audio adapters work anymore (especially annoying, since this phone lacks a headphone jack).
I have cleaned the port using a compressed air and a small swab with a bit of isopropyl alcohol.
The phone is operating normally otherwise.
So am I screwed? Or, is it possible to repair the port?
