Help Help, ExtSdcard mounts RW and turns RO at some point

Hi there, this is my first post about this great phone. The issue that im having it seems to trouble a lot of people out there, but i couldnt find a solution yet.

I have custom rooted Omega rom with android 4.1.2 and the problem is my external sd card (16 gb) automatically at some point turns Read Only, which i can see and confirm when i connect by ssh and execute "mount" command.

When i restart the phone the extSdCard is RW, just fine, i can create folders, copy files, whatever. Then suddenly and randomly a few minutes later it turns RO and i cant upload files anymore. Even when i use root file browsers.
When i say suddenly is for example i am using airdroid and uploading several files to a folder in extsdcard, and when the app is processing the queue it fails at some point due to this issue.

I have plenty of space in both the phone and the card.

This is the output of mount command BEFORE the issue:

/dev/block/vold/179:17 /storage/extSdCard vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,no atime,nodiratime,uid=1000,gid=1023,fmask=0002,dmask=0002,allow_utime=0020,codepa ge=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0

This is AFTER:

/dev/block/vold/179:17 /storage/extSdCard vfat ro,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,nodiratime,uid=1000,gid=1023,fmask=0002,dmask=0002,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0


The only thing i can notice is errors=remount-ro, maybe at some point it finds an error and remounts the storage as read only, i dont know.
I dont have problems if you give me tech advices or links to read, i am an informatic engineer and work with these stuff a lot.

Thanks in advance, great forum btw.
