Unable to get my camera to focus on my iPhone 12

My iPhone 12 all of a sudden couldn’t focus the camera. At the same time, when using the camera, it makes a scratching electric sound in short pulses. Hard restart will not solve the issue. Is this a known problem and how do you fix it?

ok so i went to the genius bar and after running diagnostics they saw my 1x and 2x lenses were broken (i guess the OIS but they didn’t specify). it would’ve been almost $500 to fix it since my screen was cracked so i just got a new phone but like why are we all having this issue in the past two months…..it’s a conspiracy theory i’m actually interested in
