Did you run the zip file which updates updates the chargemon and vold?
It's called update-rom-chargemon+vold-AlfsKernel.zip.
Download the attachment and flash it with CWM recovery. That should fix the SD card problem.
P.S. Don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache! which can also be found in CWM recovery. Hope that helps!
All credit goes to alfsamsung!

Oh my...Thanks
My problem is that I am to lazy to read all instructions....

Alfs kernel error

I plugged my phone to PC and it does not mount the sdcard.an error saying safe to remove sdcard appears.I'm using Alfa v5
Alfa v4 nvr had such a problem
I shifted to alfs v5 after using naA kernel
Then I read about vold update is necessary
I went to cwm recovery after reflashing the alfs kernel.error pops up that sdcard not mounted.what should I do??
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
which rom? the vold update is necessary on gdx. not sure if it works on other roms
gdx v20...
same problem
i have same problem here
whenever i tried to mount usb storage
a notification "save to remove sdcard" appear only
but usb storage still not working
also..when i open xRecovery (to restore to an earlier date)
i got error fail to mount card
but i can see my sd card directory in recovery
i already tried reflash my kernel also my rom
still nothing fix..
my x8 using Alfs8 and GingerDX v022
Thanks in advance
try reformat your SD card
No no guys, OP, just remove swap.
I had to go back to stock kernel.

SD card won't mount. [Afls-GingerDX]

So yeah, yesterday bought the Xperia X8, changed the stock ROM and Kernel to those one in tittle. [2.6.29.6-Alfs and GingerDX mod]
I'ved had an issues with WiFi errors and no sim, but i solved it, by putting other Kernel to phone. And yes, i've tried the LinuDX kernel too, but still SD card is "not present or unmounted"
I saw that Alfs need an extra file to flash to mount SD card, is that true.?
I would really apreciate your help guys.
Thanks.
I USED TO HAD THIS ERROR SD card damaged ..i bring it to foreman since i cant repair it ...
Yeah, it's pretty weird that it's like that. It worked on stock ROM. And i couldn't damage it so badly, phone is 1 day old
UPDATE: Went in xRecovery and tried to mound /sdcard. Gaved me an error - "E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0pl (or dev/block/mmcblk0) (Device or resource busy)
Error mounting SDCARD:!"
UPDATE2: When i try to mount USB storege from ClockworkMod it say me: "E:Unable to open ums lunfile 1 (No such file or directory) E: (sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/gadget/lun0/file)"
Help???

go into alfs CWM recovery and install update-rom-chargemon+vold++AlfsKern.v2
the .zip file is on alfs 06 kernel first page.
if you cannot copy update-rom-chargemon+vold++AlfsKern.v2 on your SD card, flash stock kernel, keep gingerdx and then copy it on SD card, then flash back alfs kernel (also dont forget full wipe)
Full wipe before and after installing stock kernel? and after the installing back alfis kernerl too?
i said to switch on stock kernel only if you dont have another way of putting that zip on your SD card (just your xperia)
doesnt matter if you do or not a full wipe when you install stock, becase your goal is to have alfs, so after you flash alfs i suggest to perform a full wipe and install the zip
So basically what i did was:
1)Flashed back to stock kernel
2)Put update-rom-chargemon+vold++AlfsKern.v2 in to SD
3)Install it via CWM/xRecovery
Rebooted and it only showed the Sony Ericsson logo and didn't go further.
So i:
4)Flashed to Alfs kernel
5)Tried to mount USB storage and again DEAD END, can't mount SD Card.
What did i do wrong?
OH IM WRONG. IT WORKED, GOSH THANKS A LOT!!!

Ok once again you have to do it.
Recovery mode
Wipe Data/Factory reset
Advance: Wipe Dalvik cache
Mounts and Storage: Wipe Data + Wipe Cache
Install zip from sdcard
Choose zip from sdcard
Flash and reboot

which kernel can i falsh with jvu ? ???
i tried midnight kernel ... get the same result ,, stuck on boot screen
here, first step is root your phone again,
download the XXXJVU zip file
then download semaphore kernel
use odin3
do with the XXXJVU step (download mode)
after that
flash the semaphore kernel (download mode)
after that your phone will startup.
if there any problems like asking for a pin password, just type any password until you go with recovery mode, then wait for it.
then there you can install the gamerzrom using recovery mode
any gamerzrom version will do.
wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition, wipe data factory reset
then install zip from sd card
choose zip from sd card
then select the gamerzrom
then yes, after that it will install the gamerzrom
if any problem occurs, like there was a problem when you're transferring the gamerzrom zip from your pc to the sd card(device). like it was canceled. then try to open it on your computer, when it says some problem, try to move it again, or maybe there was a problem when you download the zip.
it looks like the zip file is corrupted, try maybe to redownload it
