How about the external card? You might just have to take it to a repair center to get it fixed.

There seems to be a new feature in sharing pictures that multiple pics and vids can be shared as one ... meaning you receive what looks like a collage and you click on it to open all the pictures anyone know how to do this?

IME You need to select the option in "Account" > "Change Number" for others to be notified. (and even then, i think only groups get the notifications, but it allows you to remain in the group seamlessly)
