I just tried with a died SD Card and unfortunately I don’t get the same message as @kan_ibal. It shows No memory card inserted.
@kan_ibal Can you please share result of (as root):
devel-su journalctl -f -u udisks2
Try to mount and unmount using GUI. Then, try mounting using the terminal. Still as root:
mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /run/media/defaultuser/
If there aren’t errors, you’ll see your SD card in Storage.
Log is empty. As I mentioned before sdcard is not recognized hence there is no mount/umount option in GUI. Unmounting and mounting in terminal doesn’t change a thing.
I’m not sure to understand. Once you executed the command on terminal, there were no errors? Does fdisk -lshow your mounted SD card? Or even mount?
Yes, there are no errors. A log header “-- Logs begin at bla bla bla–” is visible only.
As stated before, scard is visible in terminal and FileBrowser hence 'fdisk -l" shows that sdcard and that sdcard is mounted.
The only issue is with GUI manager Settings->Storage that is useless.
Bug is still valid for 4.5.0.16.
I have tested a second FAT formatted card that works in Symbian, Android and Linux systems without issues. The same behaviour. The same is applicable for X device and 4.4.0.64 build.
How did you format your SD card?
I’ve been using these cards for 10+ years so I do not remember for sure, The most likely one was formatted in Symbian phone and the second in Android.
My advice here is this:
- copy the data from the card to a safe place
- format the card with Sailfish
- copy the data back to the card
- enjoy the card that works
We tested the mounting of a VFAT card with a couple of phones and cards, and it worked fine.
I see no reason to format a card that has been working for years and everywhere. For test purposes i tried to format that card:
but at the same time the SDCARD is already mounted in /run/media/defaultuser and accessible via File Browser. The only GUI Storage doesn’t work and BACKUP function as well.
For testing purposes I have created a new partition and formatted it as FAT32 on Linux Desktop in the sdcard and that changes nothing as it comes to the issue.
With a new SD Card?
How? Using gparted? I’ll try to reproduce on my X10 II.
Yes, gparted. The one of sdcards I have.
Could you give all information please? Which partition table did you choose? Don’t hesitate to give too much information.
Partition table = dos and format as FAT32. That is all.

I did the same and it works 
Maybe you should send per post the SD Card to Jolla…
Is it possible you installed an extra software from OpenRepos which may impact your system?
It is always possible but these sdcards and phones had been working until 2.4.0.58 update. Maybe some leftovers started to interact with that update.
I find that it is not sdcard format related but storage card management.
I have made an attempt to debug this issue and after manual unmount:
udisksctl unmount -b /dev/mmcblk1p1
storage GUI started to behave as it suppose to. Now, even after a phone restart everything works properly. I don’t know how is it possible but it looks like I have fixed that issue.
edit:
The second phone is fixed the same way.
