When you connect the SD card to the PC and mount it, it becomes part of the PC as an external drive and therefore not part of the phone, so yes perfectly normal for the phone not to 'see' it during this proceedure.  Once you disconnect it becomes part of your phone again and the phone can see it and give you the details in the Storage section you were looking at.

hope you got the answer...if you got any more quarry keep me updated...:smileylaugh:

and don't forget to mark my answer as correct and helpful....:smileywink:

connect your phone in mtp mode

you can still transfer data in mtp and use your apps also...

when you connect your phone... drag the notification panel and select change connectivity..

[Nabeel · Accepted solution]

it only happens when you connect in MSC mode
so connect in mtp mode as slim said
( settings> sony ericsson> connectivity>usb connection mode> MTP)

:smileyshocked:, i AM sorry but i am not using this MIUI rom,  so don't know what the options are there
Go through all the settings and see if could find something related to MTP/MSC
