I used to mount my camera on the corner of my house. Just for the safety purpose - I used screw - not the magnet.

 

Once i was trying to open the camera for recharge - the screw got broken and stuck in my Camera. The hole is very tiny that cant really open it. Anyone can suggest me anything ?

 

This will be a big help - Thanks in advance for this.

That's going to be a tough one. Someone could VERY CAREFULLY drill into the broken screw and use a screw extractor (kind of a screw that goes into the hole with reverse threads so using the same motion you would normally use the remove the screw causes the extractor to dig in). This may not work and may actually cause the metal insert in the camera to come out. 

 

Perhaps swapping cameras around so you can use this one with a magnetic mount would be the best solution.
