I then placed the bottom rear edge of the iPhone flush against the paper, with the rear of the phone at about a 45 degree angle to the paper and table. Essentially I banged the rear face of the iPhone against a table, which dislodged the offending debris, and deposited it somewhere else in the enclosure where it was no longer visible.ĭetails: I placed a piece of printer paper against a very flat table to act as a shock absorber and to avoid scratching. My idea was to dislodge the dust from the lens. Upon looking carefully at the lens of my camera, I noticed that there was a piece of dust on the iPhone's lens, but underneath the glass cover. Hey guys, I'm a bit late in responding, but I just encountered the same problem on my iPhone 5, and discovered a solution that worked for me. I use the apple Silicone case and phone is well protected from jolts so it may be some time before I have to do it again. I suspect it will come back and I will attempt to move it. I have decided not to take phone back since everything else is ok.Īnd here is the kicker, replacing the phone with one that doesn't have it is NO guarantee a spot won't show up 3, 6 or 9+ months later, just like what happened to me. There is some piece of debris bouncing around behind the lens. Tried it again and third time the spot came back in a DIFFERENT place. It FIXED it! This post was for an iPhone 5 but worked perfectly with my iPhone 6 plus.īasically, with my 6+ in an Apple silicone case, put the speaker end on my desk, and with the phone around 30 degrees, let it go in an arc to the table. I came across the following post and followed the directions.

It was on the top grid line and to the left of the right grid line. Same size.about the same as the shutter release button. Camera has been perfect for a few months then I got exactly the spot you got.
