My iPhone 5 is taking blurry pictures.

My iPhone is taking grainy and blurry pictures the majority of the time. It is quite disappointing since I have used a 4s that I think takes much better pictures.

iPhone 5, iOS 6

I slammed my iPhone 5s on a flat surface (table) several times on it’s front as well as it’s back, as suggested by people here. However, it continued taking fuzzy pictures and videos. After reaching the highest point of frustration and when I was planning to go back to using my iPhone 4, I slammed real hard the back of the phone (where the camera is located) again the back end of my left palm. Hold and behold; the darn thing started focusing for pictures and videos again !!

Woooow! Daebak! My camera wont focus when I bought it since it was only a second-hand iphone 5. One day, the camera suddenly focus and I was amazed bcoz I didnt do anything. Reading all your replies here made me realize that it was actually bcoz I dropped it once and it hit hard on the ground! But today, photos were blurry again and it's irritating! So I searched how to fix it! I actually found it weird to drop the iphone faced down and yet I still tried it, haha! AND IT WORKED!!! You guys are amazing!!!!! Thank u gor diz hack! :) God bless you!!!! 😍
