Dual camera won't focus, makes crackling sound (water damage?)



Last Tuesday my phone got wet while on a bicycle ride where it started to rain. The phone got wet enough that it started to randomly jump to different screens. I turned it off and put it in my pocket. Once I got home and dried the phone it seemed fine, and in fact the next day used the dual cameras to take a pic with no problem. There seems to be no water damge indicator in the dual flash.

Today tried to take a picture using the dual cameras and immediately got this crackling sound and the cameras wouldn't focus. I've done a search and couldn't find this exact problem elsewhere. The best way to understand what the cameras are doing is to show a video taken with them:

You can both see the inability of the cameras to focus and hear the crackling sound they make while trying to focus.

If I shift to the front facing camera it works just fine.

What to do? are the dual cameras kaput? :(
