Your internal SD card might have failed or unseated itself somehow.

If you open the device *very* carefully the card can be replaced but you lose the waterproof property of the device (if you meant the original H2O)

- the display is fragile so you have to be very careful when opening it
- the front bezel is what makes the IR touchscreen work, so you also cannot bend or damage that
- when putting it back together, the front bezel has to be aligned perfectly for touch to work again (it has these little notches in the corners that go into the mainboard of the device)
- I cut a hole in the back for direct sd card access without opening it a second time ;-)
