Thanks for confirming that 64GB works with L9.
Few years back I came across a MicroMax device which is lower end simple phone without camera, but as per CATALOGUE and MANUAL, it was said it will support 2GB Memory card only. Once just to see if it works, I inserted 8GB Memory Card and voila!! It supported it without any issue. Only problem was it took longer time to start as hell lot of time was taken in reading card.
This explains why they limit the use of higher capacity memory cards, "for performance issue".
it says in the manual of the phone up to 32gb so in turn some models may not support it or may support it and give issues later down the road as my droid bionic and and a few other phones i had samsung was one of em the sd card port went disfunctional and at the end of the phones life the sd card slot was unusable what so ever any card i put in would not read so be very careful of that cause it can and cant mess up the port but that is from user expierence
Can anyone confirm using a 64 GB memory card ? Also, anyone able to install Apps to SD card ? I followed instructions and did on ADK setinstalllocation 2 but in a application called app2sd it says i might be unable to install to SD as it is emulated and shown only as a folder and not a separate device.
A side note: you MUST insert a blank card EXCEPT it's formatted in FAT32.

Correct. Lots of Android devices don't like NTFS formated microsd cards at higher capacity.

No, it's FAT64 (aka exFAT).

oops. Thanks for correcting me.
Maybe it was just me, but using a 64gb card caused me to constantly run into an error where the card became Read-Only. Tried so many different formattings and permission fixes to correct it but nothing worked. Popped in my old 16gb card and it worked like a charm.

Hello all!
I'm not able to post in the development forum (since I'm a noob with less than 10 posts ).
I just moved from the 182 CM7 Nightly on my Vibrant to the Passion ICS v10.
Everything is running pretty darn smooth and thing I thought i'd be missing from CM7 are not really bothering me.
The issue I'm having is with my 8GB external SD card. I'm getting the standard SD Card is empty of has an unrecognizable filesys.
1. I've tried formatting through Storage menu, recovery menu, blackberry and an adapter.
2. I've tried all the tricks on the forums.
The build is not recognizing the card for some reason. I plug the card into my Blackberry and its fine.
I took the 2GB card from the blackberry and put it in the vibrant and it immediately recognized it and mounted w/o a hitch.
Is there a size issue/bug w/ the external SD?
Have you tried taking the SD card and plugging it into your computer, and then formatting it from there?
EDIT: I just tried it with my 8GB microSD card. It looks like mine's not being recognized either.
I'm not running ICS, but maybe it just doesn't support that much on an SD? Just throwing out ideas and maybes.
That would be really silly. Not supporting 8GB SD card .
Kept trying a few more tricks. Still have the same issue.
Also, when I added the 2GB the internal unmounted. Have to go in and manually mount the internal after external mounts (just the first time).
This is a just a heads up.

Omg yes i have the same issue, but ive looked into it some more..
I have 2 128mb, a 2gb (that came with the phone) and a 4gb and 8gb sdhc of the same brand... the 8gb and one of the 128mb dont get seen (and the 128s are identical) ive tried formatting in fat16 and fat 32 and ntfs and even mac os x journaled lol and nothing worked... i then returned to cm7 and formatted from there... went back to ics passion v9.2 and then v10 and cm9 and ssame exact symptoms... so idk.. its not because of sdHC, it doesnt sseem to be filesystem and the 128mb thing just really blows my mind..
Hope we get an answer

might be something specific to your card...im on ics 16 gb sd card working perfectly. loving ics !
I have a 16gig Ext SD card and I am having the same issue. So frustrating!
im using an 8gb and it works just find. but to acces the files on the SDcard i look under "emmc" or "mnt/emmc" or "home/emmc" (depending on which file browser you use).

Obviously this question is turning to be a bug. There is confirmation from several users with the same problem.
I have a 4Gb micro sd Patriot and seems to be OK.
You have to look into emmc folder.
Wow , thanks for the awesome pointers that I should look into EMMC folder (sarcasm btw).
The bug is about the SD CARD NOT BEING MOUNTED and reporting as blank and having a non-supported filesystem.
The card in question works fine on the PC and 2 other phones one of the Vibrant with stock ROM.
I only want to help.
I understand your point but we want to exclude options. Can you try another SD cards in this same phone?

I'm also having this problem. Have tried multiple cards in multiple format options. None of them mount, it just gives me a "Damaged SD card" error notification when I try to mount manually. Freaking sucks I can't use my 32gb card anymore.

Have you tried smaller ones like the original 2gb that came with the phone? It should work for you
Btw, just general info, I fixed my 128mb with SD formatter program so that just leaves my 8gb unworking.. and sdformatter had no effect on the 8 gb

I had the exact problem mounted/unmounted I could still read on PC's. It seems this ICS can't handle symbols (external_sd, etc) in filenames - food for thought!

I have the same problem with ICS Passion with my 8gb Sd card.
I can see the files and open them but for an example, when trying to play them in the music player (google music or winamp) I can't.
Any Ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks...
During the launch presentation it was mentioned that the Galaxy S3 will support MicroSDXC cards with capacity up to 64GB and an exFAT file structure.
However, the manual released on Samsung's UK website states otherwise...
http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/GT-I9300ZKABTU-downloads?isManualDownload=true#
Code:
Your device accepts microSD™ or microSDHC™ memory
cards with maximum capacities of 32 GB (depending on the
memory card manufacturer and type).
Code:
Your device supports only the FAT file structure for
memory cards. If you insert a memory card formatted
with a different file structure, your device will ask you
to reformat the memory card.
The manual is from this month (05/2012), Rev. 01
I asked Samsung, but they weren't able to give me an answer.
So, what's the deal?
Nothing is the deal, MicroSDHC and MicroSD"XC" are compatible using the same controller, the only reason why it wouldn't work is if someone went "If >32GB return IMPOSSIBRU;"
We know the s2 deffo doesn't support 64gb but this guy tested it out and it worked..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYUg14u_co8
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv_56mwG0w4
These are two videos that show that it works..
Yes, yes it will on both counts.

Got confirmation from Samsung Mobile UK:
The device will support 64GB micro SD. Sorry for any confusion.

If you format the card in the phone, what format will it use? Presumably FAT32. If so, will it be better to format in your computer?
The 64GB cards come formatted exFAT, so no need to format a new card at all (otherwise in computer if the card is already used). Just confirmed I will be getting hands-on an S3 today, will by trying out my exFAT formatted 64GB card in it

Hi everyone!
So, I did indeed have a couple of hours hands-on time with the S3 today, wanted to let everyone know that exFAT support is present and working, and 64GB cards work fine (if anyone still doubts that they work on all Androids with card slots).
Will have some more info up soon too
Hey guys,
I just got a Sandisk 64GB SDXC card. I popped it in my SGS3 but it tells me that the file system is not recognized.
Any ideas?
Thx

Thanks for the reply. I'm starting to think there is something wrong with my card. My SGS3 cannot mount it, then it asks to format it but that gives errors and ends up saying I can now safely remove it.
I have tried to format it on Windows 7, I can select exFat as the file system but it tells me the capacity is only 30.6 MB. Weird.
You might want to check you got what you thought you were buying, google for H2testw. Plenty of no-what-they-seem-to-be cards about.

Works great .
You definitely need to format the card from the device (S3) before using it. Otherwise you won't see it at all or only half of it.

Question?
Hi guys, i have the 64gb SanDisk sd card... I had formatted it EXFAT using Windows 7. My phone (galaxy s4 gt-i9300) recognizes it, but i dont know what is wrong, cause I cant download files bigger than 4GB... And also my recovery recognizes it. I rooted my phone, but if I check the properties of the sd card on Windows it shows that it is on EXFAT? Should I use a different method to format it?
Thanks in advance
Sgs4 its not gt 9300.

Hi there guys
I have been having a problem with 3 sandisk 64gb micro sd cards. I always got them replaced but it is getting frustrating now. Obviously they are formatted in exfat format.
The problem starts when I copy data of over 30 gb. Once i copy the data n the sd is remounted or the phone is restarted i always get the message "damaged sd card" but when i read the card on pc through an adapter it shows the contents ok. So i want to know if anyone can help me so that I may not need to return the card this time around...

Try to format it first in the phone, then start loading data on it.

I also tried it buddy but none of the methods seem to work .. i also tried formatting it then copying data through sd card reader as well as the phone itself... does it have to do anything with some file system issue or kernel related issue... im on stock kernel rooted...

also had the same problem. i formatted the card to fat32 with 32xxx sectors with "GUIFORMAT" app for windows, the it works ok.
then after fat conversion, you can try to format the card to exfat using any app (not the windows one) search google, then it might work, didnt try myself as fat32 works great, and i can use it with the script that makes the card the phone memory, so now i got 64gb instead of 11.6gb of phone storage

Card has about 55Gb info on it and I didn't format the card. Just put it into the phone. Recognised instantly and haven't looked back.

Cant tell if its blur from the camera or is that label printed at an angle?
Either way, its more important where you bought it, not its appearance. If its ebay then thats an immediate red flag.
Use h2testw.exe to test the card on windows. You probably need a card reader / phone that has usb mass storage mode.
This will tell you if its fake / faulty.
Essentially, fake cards are smaller (cheaper) but programmed to look bigger, so when you hit its true capacity, it starts over writing the older files.... hence these issues.
H2testw will tell you - http://db.tt/b1g0gTPZ

I am using a 64gb and have heard 128gb work too. I use a fat 32 partition and link2sd and use external sd as main storage.
I too am using 64GB -- formatted to FAT32. If I recall, my card was pre-formatted with 2 partitions which the phone will not recognise. If you format it to NTFS, TWRP might not recognise it in recovery mode. Windows will not format such a large drive as FAT32, so you will have to use another tool -- e.g. MiniTool.
The caveat is avoid using a (cheap) USB card reader. I've corrupted the card before when transferring too much data to the card. Newer readers built into your laptop or using the USB cable directly to the phone seem okay.

^^ Same as those guys, I also am using a 64gb card. No issues! Though surprisingly it made my Xperia bug out, lol
Just be sure you get something beyond first gen (40,MBS) cards. I have had 0 issues with anything up to 64gb I now have two 128gb cards that both work but get corrupted and require a format every time I attempt to transfer 10 + Gigs of information at a time.
