In JB, they changed the mount point for external storage to
/storage/sdcard0. At least this is the case for the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus
7. So if you're not seeing the directory, double check it. Still,
/mnt/sdcard should be a symlink to /storage/sdcard0.
I'm noticing that you're taking the file object from
Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory, then turning that into a string,
then turning it into a File again. That's not necessarily wrong, but you
might want to reconsider that.
