I finally decided to brave it out and open up my iPhone this evening. Let me tell you, it’s a daunting experience – one wrong move and its history. Anyways, the speaker holes were clogged with dust and dirt and not to mention the plug where the recharger goes. I know I didnt HAVE TO open it up, a mere brush with a toothbrush or a good blow with compressed air would have done the trick buuuuttttt I wanted to do the camera focus experiment. 

What happens here is that, you scrape away the glue on the camera which then allows you to actually turn / focus the camera for close-up shots. It worked like a bomb! Checkout the photo of the sim card to see what I mean. I managed to adjust the camera back to a focus that I am happy with. So I can take better close-up photos now. yippeee

I will be posting the guide on how to do this soon. Let me know what you think.
