I assume you tried rebooting phone and computer. Maybe the refurbished phone is defective. I would let apple deal with it. Google photos doesn't generate any posting codes that I can see as I use the app on my phone and I don't think imgur does either. If they do some one please explain how you do it. That's the problem most are charging now for 3rd party hosting. Photobucket has changed their prices and the cheapest I think is $4 a month now for 3rd party hosting. Try picture trail as I believe they still have free 3rd party hosting. I am using imgbb. Can't store all my photos there but it does allow me to upload one at a time and generates posting codes. Some are also using funkyimg but again can upload one at a time and not store them. Flickr was bought out by smugnug I think so imagine they will be charging for 3rd party hosting soon. Bad thing about Flickr is the app doesn't generate posting codes like the photobucket app does. I may end up getting the cheapest plan since I used to use the app on my phone a lot for posting. It was so easy and convenient and generated the codes. Mary

Yes, the wall tile is bad. Probably, based on the drywall next to it, because the wall is bad. I see zero evidence of durarock peaking out behind the tile, so I suspect you might just have sloppy drywall behind the wall tile which is why it looks so uneven. And which also means you likely do not have proper waterproofing. You didn't ask, but the shower pan is absolutely wrong and should be taken out. Even if the missing curb was not an issue, which it is, the size of the tile doesn’t allow for a proper pitch to the drain in such a small span. Your shower door will not be able to contain the water. Please fix this before you invest any further. Best of luck.

Since no one has responded, I'll tell you what I think as a homeowner (not a pro of any kind), and my response will help bump up your thread, too. Water needs to flow downhill, and water shouldn't be sitting damp near your foundation. (nor around your fence, imo). I'm an amateur here, but I think you need in-ground drains that are sloped towards wherever your water needs to drain toward. In my tract neighborhood (SoCal), in ground drains throughout the backyard, drain into underground pvc pipes, that go out through the front yard, through the curb, into the street gutters. I don't know where you live or how ground water is handled where you are. With those issues I see in your photos, I'd call my gardener, who could install drainage pipes and drains in the ground in a day or two, maybe with one guy to help him. I would also ask him to slope the ground away from the house for good measure. My gardener routinely does that kind of work. On our house, every gutter downspout lets water out into a ground drain. I dont know why you don't have in-ground drains, but again, I'm not an expert. There are people who do only gutters, and you can check your Nextdoor website/app to find someone to adjust the downspouts, once you have proper drains.

OK major improvement! I updated my iPhone12 from iOS 15 to 15.1! That seems to have solved the problem. Before (like 3 months ago), when I would plug the phone into the computer's USB port using the charging cable, the folders would have names like 2021_07, which would contain all the photos and movies taken in July 2021. Then the behavior reverted to their older format, like 101APPLE or 101CLOUD. That was the situation when I was trying to copy the folders from the phone to the computer via the USB cord. It started working, but suddenly stopped, with nothing copied, and the photos were unviewable. Since I now had updated iCloud on my computer, I tried copying them from there to my hard drive. It worked, but was very slow. I guess what I see on the iCloud folder on my computer are only links, not the actual files, which accounts why this process was so slow (see my comments two posts up). Now, after the iOS update, the folders had a new naming format, 202107_, and the photos and movies were viewable and copyable via the USB cord. I'm now going to do an thorough file comparison between the various copied files using a great file comparison program called Beyond Compare 4.
