sorry i didnt format, y delete from delete option in the celphone... i haven't got an adapter to check if its in fat32. Can it be donde from cel?
EDIT: i tranfer few files and work ok, but when i transfer more files some says error:cant reproduce. Maybe a transfer problem? its another way to quickly transfer music witout cable?
EDIT2: No a specifi transfer problem since the same files work fine in internal storage

You can do this using TWRP recovery if you dare to install it. There is an option to reformat to whatever you need.
As for just checking, I believe there may be an app to tell you what format your SD card is in.
You can always just buy an adaptor for your SD card for under $10.

i think is a sd problem. I transfer a folder with 15 songs and work ok in play music the first time and latear the folder disappear

Yeah, try reformatting the SD with FAT32 on a PC or Mac and see if it fixes it or not.

format in fat32 and ntfs. No one work correct, some transfer files dissapear and audio files only work for or two reproductions, I'm going to try with different card. Its very extrange because the apps i move to sd work fine, but pictures or audio doesnt

Need to format SD card

I've been installing apps on my 16GB SD card, but just noticed that only 116MB of it are being recognized. So, I know I need to format it. My question is, can I just copy everything that's currently on it to my PC, format it, and then copy everything back?
Thanks!

May I also suggest using SD Format to format. Windows format has sometimes not formatted uSD well. If you are only seeing 116MB you might use EASEUS to ensure the whole disk is available to you.
Both utilities are free and quite useful!
Thanks! And I did plan on using SD Format.

[Q] SD Card blank or has unspported file

My external SD card was working fine, had about 16Gb of Music on it. Tonight it has stopped working and is coming up with an error saying "SD card blank or has unsupported file" (I assume it means file system).
I put it into a converter and plugged into PC, Windows reported that SD card also had unsupported file system and asked to format it.
Is there a way to fix this? I really don't want to format the card and then copy all that music back on
Happened to me twice.You can try recuva to find files.

Same here mate. I had a **** load of pics and music. I couldnt find a way around it so....i had to format the SD card...so painful
looks like an iphone but powered by android baby!!!!
Happened to me about 3 months ago, was changing from Checkrom to Krinyo's SlimRom. No apps on my ext SD.
No idea why/how/what happened, but I'd made a backup my SD to my pc. You guys didn't.

[Q] Formating Micro SD Card

So my S3 Pebble Blue is on it's way & I want to put all music & stuff on to my 64Gb Micro sd card.
Do I....
1: Format on the pc, if so which format & would the S3 still want to format when I put it in.
2: Format it in the phone & then remove & insert in to PC to transfer all my music & stuff?
I am familiar with android & formatting micro sd cards. I just wondered if being a 64Gb would be a different matter.
Ta
Just format in phone.

I also just received my SGS3 and inserted the SanDisk 64gb micro sdxc card.
I didnt format it, because it just seemed to work fine without formatting. Now I put all my data on it, but after a restart of the phone the card is suddenly corrupted...
In my phone it recognizes the card, but says its corrupted and needs to formatted. It then ejects the cards for safe removal. In my pc it doesn't recognise the card at all.
Does anyone have an idea on how to recover the data on it?
And what is otherwise the best way to format it?
Thx
RE:- 64GB MicroSDXC errors
I would use a external compatible Micro SDXC reader and connected it to your computer and try and recover the card on the PC. (first)
i) what operating system are you using on the PC.
ex-fat format problem in windows xp. If you have windows 7 it should be able to read ex-fat cards natively.
If you have xp you can try and install the
search for the knowledge base article 955704 on Microsoft Technet support package to enable xp to read ex-fat cards.
In the past I have used my external 9 in one reader to fix corrupted cards to recover the files from them using recuva or similar software it will restore the files onto your pc hard disk.
let me know how you get on.
Thanks a lot for the quick advice.
I don't have an external reader yet, so I ordered one just now. I have win7 on my pc, so I guess that will be ok. I'll try it later this week when I have the reader in.
Once I have it recovered (or not), what is the best practice for setting up the card? What's the best way to format it?

Free PC program Recuva http://www.piriform.com/recuva mount via USB or scard adapter.
Or even try Hexamob (need root) our some other file recovery app
When done, best and easiest to format through phone.

[Q] Putting files from PC to Ext. SDcard

Hi guys,
Bought a SanDisk 32gb SDHC Class10 card from Amazon for my GS3. I want to put some music in FLAC onto it so I made a folder called music, but when I try and copy it across it gets a certain way then fails or freezes. Reformatted it last night from FAT32 to exFAT and the same thing is happening still. Hope it's not screwed, just want other opinions.
Cheers,
Eddie.

It shouldn't make any difference but did you try to format the SD Card in the phone, if not give it a go, from Settings > Storage > Format SD Card, reboot the phone, plug in the USB then when the folder option pops up to open the phone select that then create the folder on your SD Card and just drag and drop the music files from your PC folder to your SD Cards Phone folder.
Thanks for the help. I have established now that I am able to transfer music that isn't FLAC with out fault. It has led me to think that perhaps I formatted it to FAT32 and it doesn't like file sizes bigger than 4gb. But I am almost certain that I uses exFAT.

SD Card problem. Please help me.

Hello XDA.
This is my first time to come here and register, i heared that XDA is the best android developers website so i came here to request your help.
Lately i bought Lenovo Vibe S1 that comes with 2 Nano-Sim slots but if i'm going to insert a SD Card then there are 1 Nano-Sim slot.
I have a 4GB SD Card. I inserted it to the phone. The problem here that when i copy/move files to the SD Card it doesn't show in the apps. Like, moving Photos from internal storage to SD Card it doesn't appear in gallery. Same as songs, when i move them from internal storage to SD Card they doesn't show up in 3rd music player apps. Unless i unmount the SD Card from the settings and remount it. But it is a pain to unmount and remount when i move anything to the SD Card.
So, any help to fix this?
PS: I don't want to root, flash or install ROMs to my device.
Thank you for taking your time by reading my thread.
I started a Thread before but it was in the wrong section.
Brother what Android OS has your phone? If it is higher than 5.0 backup your files on the Sd Card and then format your Card in your Phone. After that put the files back on the Sd card. This worked for me on Android 5.1.1.

It is 5.0. Anyways, i will try your method and inform you if it worked. Thank you.
I did the method. It worked in Gallery while moving the photos from Internal Storage to SD Card it appears in gallery. But in ****ing music app it doesn't appear.
Which music app are you using? There is sometimes an issue with apps that don't use the sd-card an option called ".nomedia" filter or something like that is checked. Try to find it in your app and uncheck it. I hope that will work.

I use MusiXMatch. And i check my music in Google Play Music to check that it is not MusiXMatch's problem but the same thing. My music aren't in .nomedia. When i unmount the SD Card and mount it again i see the songs.
