Default the external tf card was write-protected

after flashing JP2, the TF card is write-protected via PC, any idea??

Have you guys tried to format the card inside the phone? unmount it then format (don't forget to do backup!)

Seems to work fine for me

we can write stuff into the card in our phone, but not by connecting to the PC then choose Mass Storage / Kies to copy file over there

There's a workaround. Not a good one, but at least it works. You can get full r/w access to the external sd card from within Kies, with the horrible Kies file-explorer.
