SD card issues

After I flashed 2.3.4, I decided to root the phone. I put the new cwm recovery on, and tried to flash the root zip. I noticed I couldn't flash a zip from the internal memory like you could with the old cwm recovery. So I put my sd card in and it will not read it or recognize it. I used the SD card since I bought the phone in February, so I know the Atrix knows the SD card and can read it, but 2.3.4 can't read SD cards?
EDIT: *sigh* I hate this phone sometimes. Then again I love it all over again the rest of the time.. it took about 5 minutes, but it finally said preparing and now works. sorry

HELP! My active can't find SD Card!

As the title says.
Story:
Rooted the phone, copied CWN to the system.
Backed up my stock ROM and was thinking of using FreeXperia ROM.
Flashboot unlocked the bootloader, was wiping the whole data (NOT SD CARD) on the phone to get ready.
Then... SD Card could'nt get mounted.
I'm stuck, can't restore because its on the SD Card.
The SD Card holds 5,33 GB files and is a 16 GB SD Card.
EDIT: Wrong place, solved the problem.

[Q] Couldn't mount external SD Card

Hi Guys,
my problem is as follows:
My Galaxy S2 is unable to mount the external SD card. if I force it by clicking the button in the settings menu, it says preparing to mount SD card for a split second and then nothing happens....
First of all, I searched this forum for other posts. I found a few which seem to have kind of the same issue, but none of them helped me.
If there is a post with exactly the same issue, please point me to it!
I updated from CM9 to CM10 2 days ago, since exactly that moment my phone isn't able to mount the SD card anymore.
I tried to reflash CM10. I did do a full wipe, also a dalvik and a cache wipe. I tried another kernel (sihya).
The SD card as itself still works, if my S2 is attached to my PC, I'm able to read and write to the SD card.
I flashed CM10 and the Kernel from the external SD card. I tried to format the SD card (fat32), still nothing.
I think my last chance is to try out another SD card.
apprechiate any help!

try to back up your current rom to a different sd card and then flash back to the old rom to see if the old sd card works....the rom may have a bug with mounting a sd card...if all else fails just flash back to old rom and wait till its fixed...i had that issue with a rom for the inspire

[Q] cm10: external sd card damaged

Hi everyone
Here my short story:
Flashed cm10 to try it out.
Got a notification that my external sd card is damaged
Googled and found out that the problem is that cm10 uses another format then stock SGS 3 Firmware
Decided that this is a reason to stick with stock 4.1.1
Flashed back, but SD card is still damaged
Is there a way to use the SD card on stock rom without formating it and loose all the data?
