[Q] Problem with CM-10.1 and external SD card - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

Hello,
I successfully installed CM-10.1 on my Galaxy W. Now it works much better than with the original firmware.
My only problem is, that I can not get Evernote to work. It tells that I have to insert a memory card before I can use Evernote.
But there is a SD card inserted.
Why does Evernote not recognize this card? Do you have any suggestions how I can solve this problem or do you know the reasons of this problem?
Best regards

EDIT: It also seems that the included Android Browser does not recognize the SD card. I tried to download something. And it tells me, that the download cant be done, because a SD card is needed.
Also the gallery app does not recognize the SD card.
The external SD card is mounted under /storage/sdcard. With the filemanager I can see the files on the card. Maybe the card is not mounted correctly?

Hello,
I have some additional information.
I found a workaround for my problem. To get access to the external SD, I have to connect my phone as an USB mass storage device to a PC and disconnect it again. Afterwards i can access the external SD.
But after restarting my phone, the problem appears again and I have to do the workaround again.
I think that there is some bug and permissions or so are not set correct during startup.
Du you have any idea how to solve my problem?
Best regards

Damaged SD Card

I managed to get CyanogenMod 7 RC2 up and running. I noticed that I had a lot of junk on my SD card so I thought that I could back it up and then wipe it because most/all of the useful stuff was on the internal memory of the DHD. But, for some reason, my phone is telling me that my SD card is damaged.
I don't think that there is anything wrong with the SD card because I just did a copy/paste thing to back it up. Also, I've put in another SD card and it also says that it's damaged. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Run fix_permissions and reboot

Thanks for the reply, but I don't think I can do that. I can't put that on my SD card because there if I try to connect it with the computer, I can't mount the SD card or turn on the usb sharing thing. I'll be able to reformat the SD card soon because I'm borrowing a friend's micro sd card to sd card converter.
I tried Fix Permissions by going into recovery and advanced options, but that didn't work =/
Also, I remember now that I uninstalled "Goldcard Helper" because it said it was downloaded to my SD card so I thought that I could uninstall it and be able to clean up my SD card completely. Maybe that had some effect on this?
Got my friend's converter so now I can plug the micro SD directly into my computer. Oddly enough, it said I had to format it before I could use it which is essentially what my phone was telling me to do too.
I'll wipe it then see if it works
Perfect! I think it is working completely now! One last question of what I should do now that it's working. Can I plug it in, restore a few pictures I had, and just let Android take over from there? It's completely blank on the SD card so will Android know what to do with it?

[Q] SD Card issue!

Hey everyone,
I have a stock non-rooted Sprint version Galaxy S3 with Jellybean. I installed a 32 GB SD Card and it worked fine for the longest time. Today I realized that when I take pictures it will not save to the SD Card. The card is recognized by the phone, it reports the correct size, and I can see the contents but I cannot write to the card any longer.
I unmounted the card, uninstalled and reinstalled the card, and restarted the phone, but no matter what I do I can't save anything to it. I downloaded an SD card testing app and it said I didn't have permission to write to the card. Has anyone heard of this issue before? I am going to try to use the Kies Air app to move all of the contents of the card to my PC and reformat it to see if that helps. Thanks to anyone who might know what's going on.

Have you tried already manually adding stuff to the card via transfering files from Internal to ExtSDCard?
Have you set up your camera settings to save picture / recordings to external SD card or
try testing to create new file / folders within the card?

[Q] My External Micro SD card is locked up! Can't write to it (android 4.3)

I'm not sure if this is related to the 4.3 bug or not but I have the tmobile galaxy s4 and I can no longer modify anything on my external sd card. Everything still reads fine but it seems alot slower than before.
I tried using es file manager to delete/write , but it dosen't work. It will say deleted successfully but when i refresh, it reappears. When i try to create a new file it says "sorry, operation failed"
I also checked the permissions file and it says it has r/w access for external storage.
Is my card just dying or corrupted or what? How can I fix this?
I just want to be able to use it again.
I also tried formatting. When i do it on the phone it just freezes. When I do it on the pc, it says write protected.
I tried gparted as well but it hangs during detection.
This is the default micro sd card that came with the phone...

Remove your external microSD and plug it into a card reader and or the adapter which came
with the card then plug it into your computer.
Make an empty folder on desktop of computer and copy all files and folders from the microsd
card into the empty folder.
Format your external microsd using this windows utility and copy all the files/folders back onto
the card from your computer and replace it into your phone.
Here is the direct download link for this fat32 formatter which is a windows utility:

32GB Micro SD Issues

Good Afternoon
Ive recently been given the Samsung Tab 3 7 inch and im having major issues with the 32GB Micro SD Card.
I can add folders and files to the SD card through a SD Card Adapter plugged into the card reader of my desktop PC and I can view these files once put back into tablet.
Once in the tablet I cant move anything around in the ‘My Files’ App I cant delete anything or add anything either.
Its like its just readable. I cant save photos from the camera to the SD card and I cant create any folders on it using the tablet.
It works perfectly in my friends Samsung phone…. I put his 8GB sd card into my tablet and it worked for a while and I was able to create folders and move files in ‘My file’ app. I removed it and tried it again and it became ‘Read Only’ like my 32GB
Also if I plug my tablet into the desktop PC using the usb adapter I cant change detele or add files to the card!
Very confused.
Im new to android so if anyone needs anyother info to help me out I will try my best to answer.
Thanks guys.

Try this app as a Device Manager
Did you try to format SD card in the settings ?
SD Card
Yeah, i re formatted in on the phone, on my desktop PC.
The only way i can get files onto it is through an SD card adapter plugged directly into my PC.
I cant get it to work through the USC, i tried Kies and also Android File Manager and i have no luck.
Android File Manager - Doesnt recognise the device
Kies - Locks up when i try adding something to the SD Card.

Internal storage have nothing to do with your problem. Your problem is SDcard.
Can you mount it in Windows when phone is connected to PC?
Or use any adapter to put your sdcard into PC and repair it from there.
If it's repairable. If it's not, you'll have to format it.
Also, maybe it's broken so there is nothing you can do it about it, but to use another sdcard
