When I placed music files in external sd card formatted to exFAT, music files will be detected and have music info but not for album art. I tried changing file format and players and none of them works. However, they all worked fine when I put them in internal storage and I suspect that exFAT is yet to be fully compatible with Android 4.1.2.
I use 64GB micro sd card so it's quite troublesome to format to FAT32. Do you guys experience this problem like me? I'm starting to think about using 4.2 AOSP right now.

Hi guys,
Yesterday i found there's this thing called swapping internal and external sd cards for more storage for games.
How it works, it adds two cards in one or its just changing the places (sdcard0 to sdcard1 and sdcard1 to sdcard0)?
And so, i flashed Helly bean, i flashed swap kernel for 4.3 by mackay and it didnt seem diffrent. How can i recognize the change and why when i mount the cards to pc i see just the one - my external card? Should i use another rom
Edit: Tried Cm10.2.0 without the kernel everything is fine, with the kernel its like my internal sd card doesnt exist :lol:
No worries i figured it out, after the problem i reinstalled other rom and my cards are swiped without me installing the swapped sd kernel
I just flashed Allrams cm-11-20140706-UNOFFICIAL-jactiveltexx.zip without a problem (after a full wipe). System running fine, but unfortunately my SDCard (Samsung 64GB ExFat formatted) isn't recognized.
The card is recognized via Recovery, as well as on my PC.
Any suggestions?

I would have posted this question in the appropriate thread, but not enough posts until now...
I installed Spegelius version cm-11-20140702-UNOFFICIAL-jactiveltexx_NE5.zip. Ext. SDCard is recognized. Everything running smooth so far...
It seems, problem within allrams version.
I have allram build but sd card is working, but earlier when I had Sandisk instead of Samsung card I also did have problems ..
Which size of card? Also in ExFat formatted?
Spegelius build of 20140702 wasn't able to play YouTube videos, so I changed ROM to Carbon (CARBON-KK-UNOFFICIAL-20140704-2345-jactiveltexx.zip).
SD card is recognized, YouTube is working. Only few camera crashes.
It seems, there is only a problem in allrams build with 64GB cards formatted with ExFat.
Hi I use this one https://www.cyberport.de/samsung-pro-64-gb-microsd-speicherkarte-class-10-bis-70mb-s-uhs-i--4H02-03F_1519.html Allram newest build but worked on previous also .. Funny things on this custom builds how different thing work on one phone but not on other (regarding my video 10 min recording limit)
My SDCard is Samsung microSDXC Pro 64GB (Class 10) in my SGS4 Active, formatted with exFAT. Worked with stock rom 4.4.2.
I have flashed several allrams builds. Recognized in Recovery but after a restart or boot up then randomly my card is recognized in CM11 but not all files and folders are found.
When I go to Settings/Storage and unmount and mount back the external card then it finds all files and folders.
If I connect my phone to a PC, I can't transfer files to external card, only to internal storage if external card is unmounted under Settings/Storage.
64 card files wont all play
Hi I have a new moto g, (running lollipop) I also put in a 64 sd card, while the music files seemed to play fine, video and other files the phone reads some of them not others, I put the same file internally and on the sd card and it reads the internal version of the file. I gather from this forum ( 64GB HD Card on Lollipop ROM - What format should I use?) I need format the sd card, I have no idea how to do that, any help would be appreciated.
Use Fat32, it´s the safest solution imho.

Only fat is supported out of the box for external SD.
Max file size for fat32 is 4GB-1byte. Should be not a problem unless you plan on putting e.g. large hd-movies on the card. That would require another filesystem and makes things complicated (root, custom kernel etc)
Since Windows' internal formatting tool is limited to 32GB you will need e.g.
http://www.easeus.com/partition-manager/. On linux use gparted.
Any suggestions... (I've eliminated any problems with FireKat and PopRocks. They are solid)
Running FireKat V20 (4.1.1.) SD card tested and is readable/writeable (128Gb). Pics are in proper DCIM\Camera folder on SD. Music is in Music\ folder on SD. (some players find music but "PlayerPro" and "Sound Picker" do not find music. Cannot change ringtone with Sound Picker or other programs (says unable to change ringtone). The pics will only show in Gallery by displaying through Picasa. These problems also occur even on stock rom before flashing custom rom. Oh, also tried "fix permissions".
I've tried everything I could think of including Odin back to beginning several times. Tried PopRocks rom, no joy. Believe my I've tested and experimented with a lot of stuff but cannot solve the problem.
Any suggestions to help correct finding my pics and music on SDCard would be appreciated.......
Update Pics & Music only on Internal storage
I've determined that pics and music do show up if stored in "Internal" storage.
If I copied all pics & Music to internal storage I can see all.
Is there a way to "move" those files from internal to external storage other than just moving in root explorer??

are you doing a factory reset/clean flash after odin, if not make sure you do so, and also format your sd card using your device instead of your computer
Yes, factory reset/clean flash wiping everything except SD Card many times to try and find the problem. I'll try wiping and formatting the sd card, I have not done that yet.
Thanks!
Hi guys,
Ive already spend days of google and even brought my old laptop from the storage room to format my newly purchased sandisk 128gb micro sd card. Its not recognized by the modified tablet running 14.1 chalagwifi(?). So stock android has the option to format the sd card, but is there a way i can do that within lineageos? Under storage my sd card is not listed...I have tried to format it from my laptop to exfat but still not recognized... From google results the sd card should be compatible with the tab - so any one has an solution?
Best regards.
HI
The mount point for the SD card is not under "/storage" but "/mnt/media_rw/" witch can cause problem with most of media reader (Like Mk player)
you can see your Sd card with an explorer like "ES explorer" and read a video with google video but not with Mx Player
i expect it can help you. i'm searcing in formums a way to change the mount point of the sd card
Note : i have a 128 go sd card formatted in NTFS and it work well
