Hello all. I haven't received any feedback so far. Not sure if it's due to the way I originally described my possible issue. I attempted to rewrite my original post and hopefully it's clearer, if any this time. Thanks.
By the way, per AT&T Tech support, if a hard reset doesn't eliminate the noise, they can do send me a replacement, ie a certified Note 5. Understand a certified one can be a used one. Yikes.
P.S. Couldn't revise the title of my post for better title.

I am hearing a strange noise coming from the back camera lens area. This happens when I launch the Home Depot application and try to use the scanner (to do a price check on a UPC bar code). The scanner view is initially blur and at that point i hear the strange sound. It short and it sounds like a grinding noise. Wonder if it's a possible mechanical issue with the lens as it tries to either focus as the camera is engaging the stabilization function. Appreciate any help.
