Ha! That's almost exactly what I did at first -- only, less a
whack than a tap, flush on a counter top -- thinking the cylinder might
be just a little misaligned and that might get it right. No dice.
Seems an hour of constant turning to the point of nearly blistering my
fingertips was the ticket. What can I say? I once took my car to a
mechanic who fixed a bent valve by wedging a pry bar between the valve
and the edge of the cylinder head and bending it back into position.
Brutal, and not perfect, but effective. :-D

My cat just knocked it and my K-x off the top of a dresser, onto the
floor. Fortunately, the camera still seems to be working. But now, the
focusing ring on the lens sticks at the far and near end.
Walt, the one and only time I ever dropped my iPhone while it wasn't in
it's case, the little on/off button on top sarted sticking. After seeing
where the impact damage was and using my warped-but-give-it-a-go logic,
I gave it a bash on the opposite side. It then worked perfectly again.
This is me ;)
