Try inserting it in some other phone and see what happens.
If that doesn't work, try using a card reader and check on PC.
If the PC reads the card, copy the contents onto the PC and format the card. And then use it in your phone.

Are you rooted?... See if you can access your Ext SD from CWM. (install zip for sdcard).

Well that only means your Ex SD has been damaged for good. Was it in warranty?... (BTW even internal SD can't be accessed via CWM?)

Best option would be to flash stock and take the phone to the Customer Service.

Skyrocket detects external 32gb microsd card, but won't be read by...

I just recently purchased a 32gb class 10 micro sd card for my skyrocket, and it works perfectly fine.
The only issue i have is that the microsd card won't be read unless i use a file manager such as astro.. Apps like gallery or mxplayer won't read the microsd card.
This didn't happen with the 16gb class 4 micro sd card, so what is happening?
Anyway to fix this issue?
Thanks

Interesting..
Btw when i ran media scan it says sd card is "usb storage". Not "external sd".... Could this be the reason?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Mini Tools Partition Wizard is the program to use if you are on windows. Use it to format the card to fat32 primary. If that doesn't do it replace the card.

Is there anyway to make the paths so the phone can determine its correct location?
Could it be the difference in size of the card itself too?

Fat32 primary cant even be seen on the phone....
When I reformat back with android, it works fine, other than the issue of not showing the files in apps, unless using a file manager.
After formatting you are rebooting right?

Yes, i am rebooting.
Only issue is that to view images in apps like gallery or mxplayer, the folder has to be on the root of the sdcard. Before i had a group of folders in one, and now it won't let me do this.
Am i possibly naming folders wrong?

Expanding USB Storage? I don't know how, but if you say swap SD Card with external SD Card, i know how (maybe).
Try using Topdroid's vold.fstab tweak, maybe that will work. If you are on CM10, i can give the app that always work.
Its okay now, cm9 has an option to basically set the ext SD as USB storage

Certain basics
You don't have cwm in a Rom zip
/data.. internal memory
/system... system memory.. this is where your Rom is
/boot... kernel is here
/recovery... independent of all other partitions and can be flashed either in Android using flash image binary or fastboot..
Google what other recoveries you have for your phone.. it should be in index /sticky for your phone in your forum thread.

if can't solve by clean flashing, it is high possibility that chip is faulty, this is hardware issue.

you have answer ur own question..lol
think..memory card own do not supply own power to operate. the phone does. why your memory card broken? the phone brack it. why still the card be use in normal, thats complicated. intermediate current or voltage supply to the card may cause this. same principal as some phone can oc 1.3ghz some can't.

How do you mean "how to use the actual sd card"?
Do you mean that your phone isn't detecting the SD card? Then simply format it to FAT32 (if you have CWM recovery installed on your phone you can format it from there).
No i mean i can't save the apps to it and am getting the low memory warning on my phone.
