[reddarin]

If you can't read/write to your external SD Card there is a fix for it if you are rooted:

You need to add permissions to the platform.xml file as described here (don't forget to upvote the answer)...

Found an answer to my own question! Might as well share how I did it (DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK, it worked fine for me). Needs root obviously.

Using a root-enabled file manager, navigate to /system/etc/permissions
Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
Add an additional group definition for this permission...<group gid="media_rw" />
Save the changes to the file.
Restart.
