Prayer

QUESTION: Once during a Jumuah prayer,the mic of the mosque malfunctioned and we couldn’t hear anything,only bits of sounds were coming every now and then.As the people on the upper floors couldn’t see the imam, they improvised based on the bits they could hear.I was in the 2nd floor, without knowing what to do I followed them.I don’t know if the prayer was valid. What should we have done in such situation?

QUESTION: When I am in a position of tawarruk and the likes, or if I do sujood, during prayer my dress is lifted a little since my feet are lifting my dress. Is that exposing my awrah?
