Help Camera doesn't focus on Infuse?

I've got the Infuse 4g and I was trying to take a picture yesterday and noticed that it doesn't focus anymore. Not at all.

I don't really know when it stopped, but recently, I used the "Heimdall One-Click return to stock Gingerbread" to get my 2.5.6 update. I'm not sure if it's related or anything.

I can tap the screen to focus and the box will go either red or green, but even when it's green, it won't actually focus anything. Not in macro, not in standard, nothing.

When I press the shutter, same story. It pretends like it's focusing, but nothing actually happens.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?! My photos are all out of focus! :( I would go back to the store, but I bought it used from craigslist and as such, couldn't get insurance. The camera DID focus when I first got it though.
 
I always had a focusing issue on my Infuse 4G, although it was for a specific distance (for some reason, it would never be able to focus on things that were closer than a foot from the camera). It would try to focus (do that in and out thing) but then it would always take the shot unfocused (when the shutter box is red).

But your case sounds like it's even worse, for all photos?
