Format SD Card
i had this problem too..., then i formatted the card from recovery..., now, everything is working fine....
or
you have to make sdcard directory r/w from root explorer. manually every time when the problem occurs.

Here's a simple guide/solution if anyone who have problems with their microsdcard
1.Blank Sdcard notification
If u have partition on ur sdcard and u switch from 2.1 to 2.2, u need to reformat the card. Because 2.2 does not need the 2nd partition.
When u had partition your sdcard on 2.1 rom and u get blank notification, please do a reboot. it will eliminate the meassge.
ps:i do recommend using ext2 as 2nd partition and use link2sd as u can manually select the apps, dalvik-cache files and the libs files
2.Unrecognised, Failed to read sdcard, damage sdcard and etc
Required a laptop/computer assistance
Please try this method before you try anything else. usually this will solve all the problem you facing
1.Go to my computer and right click on your sdcard icon
2.Select properties and then click on the Tools tab
3.Click on error checking/check now
4.Remember to tick on the automatic fix and then click start
this will required 10 to 20 minute, depending on the size of your sdcard.
3.Last resort
Format your sdcard using your x10 or pc.
if both method cant be using, re-partition your sdcard using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 6.0. set it as primary and using FAT32
Sdcard reading and writing speed slow?
For non-rooted and rooted user
Mount your sdcard from your pc and use this Defraggler and defrag your sdcard. credit to 28spawn
For rooted user only
go to this thread increase SD card performance(new Flashable zips), credit to KInG GaME
PS:This troubleshooting method does not 100% will work but since it works for me most of the time, so i wanted to share out. Hope I wont offend anyone.
Mod, if this thread is useless, please delete it and sorry for the trouble.
Thanks for the thread. Tried it on my sd card because it shows blank sd card after I partitioned it into fat32 and ext3 for miui cobrato rom but it didn't work. Nice share anyway.
opps.. thanks for replying n reminding me. i forget to put tis. after u partition your card, did u reboot? btw, there no nd to do partition for 2.2 onwards

Nope, I only put in the partitioned sd card into the phone and started it. I partitioned using parted magic. But for MIUI roms, it's needed to partition into ext3 for the ap2sd+ to work.
same problem here. i just can't seem to get the sd card to work after flashing custom 2.2 or 2.3 roms. but the sd card work just fine on any custom 2.1 roms.
i'm currently on ThGo v1.5.5e. this rom works great.
I'm using EWjet 2.3.4x. I plugged the sdcard into my pc, used mini partition tool to reduce the size of fat32 partition and making 800mb of unallocated space at the end of disk. Then I created a new partition (primary ext3) of 800mb, applied and removed the sdcard from pc.
When I plug it on x10 it says that my sdcard is empty.
I already tried to reboot twice and it keeping saying that is empty.
Link2SD says that I don't have a second partition, but I created a 800mb ext3 partition.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

btw, i would suggest u try out ex2 partition because its more common for our phone to recognize it.
sorry for late reply. i tot this thread is dead. thinking wanna ask mod to delete it
well, i tried formating it to fat32 through windows and it worked. but what boggles me is that only some 2.3 roms can detect my sd card. thgo and ewjet works just fine. any miui roms and others doesn't seem to find the sd card. it just says sd card not present or unmounted sd card.
well, i had never tried using any miui rom b4 but from what i read, its best after flashing the miui rom, it it recommended to format the sdcard
I was changed stock 8 GB card to 16 GB / 10 class Patriot one. My X10 dont see card - in card info i see :
total space: unavaialbe
Available space: unavaialbe
Mount SD Card : : Insert an SD card for mounting
Format SD Card : Format (erase) the SD card
Last 2 options is unavailable.
On stock 2.1 firmware card is working normally - on recovery also. Problem is in CM - since I have X10 i use Wolfbreaks CM, but i tried to flash also Achotjan FreeXperia. On these roms card is not visible.
Stock kernel, BB54 and 67. I tried SDRescan - and it says "Completed" and nothing else.
Please help

Lol or he could post a it in the actual cm7 thread
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
just reflash new SE stock firmware to avoid any headed. and re-do from scratch...
My experience says that you will need to reformat your SD card. Even though stock and xrecovery can see it there is something wrong with it. If you mount it via USB does windows say there is a problem that it wants to repair (if you are using windows)?
I was posting here cose this is question about developing, If I posted in wrong section please move thread to right place.
I do reflash with seus at beginning - in 2.1 is working normally , but after changed system in xrecovery card dissapeard. (2 times - seus + different CM 6). And I also reformat card (fat32). I`m using Windows XP (but have also openSUSE).
Card was empty after format - so windows dont see any problems.
Make of my card is Patriot.
I install app - Multi Mount SD and when i mount card, PC normally see it. Only CM have problem with that.
Format the SD card and erase any other partition -if you have any.
I dont have any partitions, but i will try to delete and create main partition when i came back home (I need linux to do that, in work i have only windows xp). I tried one more time to format card (fat32) and nothing. Strange problem. Card work normally in memory reader, and in mass storage mode in X10.
In terminal on mount i dont see sdcard. I want to try mount it manually but i dont know what`s name of device is memory card. (sda1 , sda2 or...). Did anyone know (or want to check it in mount?) ?
I see card0 it is cardreader from X10 ?

You don't need Linux, there's a free Windows Program (MiniTool Partition Wizard).
But since you haven't partitioned your card in the past, I doubt that this will solve your issue.
Try backing up your data and formatting the SD card.
Then insert it in the phone, see if it works are copy your data back.
Good luck!
Also, you can mount the SD card in xRecovery and see if it works.
I formatted card 2 or 3 times with no results. In recovery card is working normally - i install CM in xrec from this card

I Just went from the Resurrection Remix v1.7 to the HyDrOG3N-ICS 02.05 and now i can't see my internal SD card. When i go into apps like gallery and what not it says no external storage available. It was working all fine before this. So i tried to re download the Resurrection Remix v1.7 and install it but it says i need an sd card to download. However i can reflash the HyDrOG3N-ICS 02.05 rom in CWM from my internal SD card, so it kinda knows it's there.
It seems i have a bit of a predicament. Any ideas?
Try flash the mounting fix ~~ it solve my internal storage after flashing it~~

SD card problems
I hope it will help.
1. If the card is invisible in phone, control it via card reader.
2. formatting/partitions making usually fix the problems in the phone
3.In phone control if the card is mounted in the system ( menu-system-settings-SD&phone storage) if yes and still invisible - remount/mount.
4. For fixing some issues and partitions ( stabilizing SD too+ no data loosing with this tool) you can use Partition Mini Tool - also suitable for SD preparation for moving Dalkik to SD via a2sdgui ( not supported anymore) and above - system 2/3/4.
Basically : If card is invisible in reader, theres problem with card.
If is visible in phone only - problem is in mounting/flashing/formatting in phone.
New to XDA. Tried searching the forums if similar issue has been asked before but seems that none is quite similar to my situation.
Mine Atrix was HK 2.3.4 stock rom. I unlocked bootloader, rooted and flashed epinter's CM10. The custom rom works well so far.
But the major problem is that whenever I use apps that require external storage, such as Photo Gallery and Play Music,
or try to save/restore backup of apps in the sd card, these apps pop up a message "no external storage available" and force close.
I tried to flash back to the 2.3.4 stock rom and the sd card works fine with my phone.
Then I once again flashed CM10, the above problem occurs one again.
With CM10, when I connect the phone with my computer through USB cable, I can only access to the sd card but not the internal storage.
I installed ASTRO and I can explore the files on sd card (/storage/sdcard1), but since I can't access to internal storage on computer,
I have no idea which directory I should look for in ASTRO as the internal storage.
When it was 2.3.4 stock rom, the above problems never happened. Could anyone advise me the solution?
/storage/sdcard0 ->Internal
/storage/sdcard1 -> External
Did you do a clean install (full-wipe)? Check on CM10 Settings -> Storage [Use external storage]

Yes I did 3-wipe before and after flashing rom. And the Settings -> Storage [Use external storage] didn't help.
Hi
As far as I know, you must enter in advanced option and here activate the external SD card.

This has already been done before.
[Update]After a reboot, the phone finally can detect the sd card, but the internal storage is still absent from the file explorer (ASTRO) or the computer through USB. So weird?
I recently flashed this rom and I am having the same problems except my external micro SD card works, could anyone help?
You're not alone I'm having he same problem with external sdcard. Maybe there's no solution for now

hello guys hope this can help
I flashed cm10 epinter for atrix olympus hk version. I had the same problem of disappearing internal storage, even in recovery the emmc cannot mount. After digging for weeks i finally found this that saved me. Basically it is just deleting the old partition , remake it and then format. Instruction is simple just a few lines. Just need to be careful.
Now both internal and external storage are OK and both show in usb mode connecting to computer. Hope it works for you and not too late.

Hi friends,
I managed to unlocked the boot loader and rooted. I installed Link2sd with Ext2 formatted second partition. I link all my application from internal memory to sd card. Everything is working fine, but after 15 minutes my sd card removed unexpectedly. Then I reboot phone and create the mount script partition again. After some time the SD card removed again. All my apps including updated play store, keyboard, face book, Titanium Backup etc all get removed. Earlier I use the same SD card in Moto Defy XT 535 for last two years and no problem acquired. Now I reset my phone to factory and re installed all apps again, It working without any problem. Any one know which format is suitable and working without any problem?
