[Q] SGS Storages types summary?

RAM 512Mb but you only have aprox 326 Mb for yourself, the rest are used by the OS and System Services.
Internal SD, can come in 8GB models or 16GB models
External SD, is whatever SDHC micro SD card you want to insert into it, supports up to 32GB micro SD cards
the Internal SD is split in 2 GB for System OS Apps, and whatever is left over is yours to use.
the Internal SD is aprox a Class 4 SD card

Amd what about system types on internal sd? What is reason for so slow stock i/o? FS type? LagFix i choosed store data on same chip...

exactly because of that the internal SD is split into 2 active partitions, by having the swap file on another SD card, then it lessen the access time

Ok! But..... CFLagFix-1.70 moves files to internal SD, not external.
It was in internal, and became also internal. So what's the difference?
Ok, maybe another partition, but same storage! May by file system structure, heard about some journals??? or what else??

SDcard format ?

I have a 1 gig card to use in my rooted NC. Do I need to format it some special way ? I have it formated as NTFS but I can not read it with ASTRO. It should be listed under sdcard right ? but I dont see it.
Help!

From what I've read on the Nook Color spec, it supports the FAT32 filesystem.
Try formatting your microSD card to that (or use the Nook to format the sd card directly)

Yup, FAT32 will work if what you have is a PC. There may be some UNIX filesystem format that's supported too, but for a 1 GB card, FAT32 is enough with its 4 GB file size limitation.

Does the Nook support MicroSD cards formated in the exFAT format?

I need to get a 13.2GB file on a 16GB microSD card I have that's manufactured formatted to FAT32. I could format it to exFAT in Windows 7 to get around FAT32 4GB file transfer limitation but I'm not sure if the Nook will be able to read a microSD card formatted in exFAT.
Have anyone attempted before?

[Q] micro SD card exfat

Hello guys!
I have 16GB micro SD card and I can't put a movie larger than 4 GB.
my card is formatted as fat32, but I've managed to install paragon+ and mount ntfs card but I still can't copy file larger than 4GB.
Or to be more precise, I can save file via PC on SD card, but all applications don't recognize file.
I have tried with both 4.1.1 and 4.1.2
Does anyone know how to solve this?
paragon didn't mount exfat.

It's an android limitation. Android has not NTFS support out of the box. I was sure it supported exFAT (our big brother does AFAIK) but after formatting my 16 GB class 10 SDcard my phone didn't recognize it anymore So, FAT32 and no 4GB+ files
However there's a good chance CyanogenMod supports these file systems (at least exFAT) out of the box

Get a live USB stick for any Linux distro and try saving it that way.

AW: [Q] micro SD card exfat
It should be possible to reformat the card as ext2/3/4. Android would support it natively. The only issue would be for Windows users to install a kind of driver to use it.

I've solved it.
I've formatted 16 GB SD drive half as fat32 and half as ext4, and then i've made a script to mount ext4 to /mnt/storage3 folder.
Now I can dowbload torrents larger than 4GB.

@oskreso, can you share the script?

32GB to 64GB card... just copy everything?

I have a 32GB card in my note 2
I am getting a 64GB card. So All I need to do is
1. Format new card(FAT32?)
2.copy all files from old card to new card
3. Insert new card
Anything else I need to do?
Lot of my apps are installed on SD card (no special application, but using android built in move to SD card)

Yes
That all you need to do. Or at least that is all I have done for every SD upgrade that I have done, and I've had no problems.
steve:good:

I did the same, no issue. enjoy your bigger sd

Fat32 or extfat

fat32 is fine , always what i have done , also it 'd be best if you use this tool , google for it "sd formatter"

You cannot copy big files more than 4GB on Fat32 file system. You should use ExFat if you have such files.

I have no problem with native exFAT(I assume this is how the card will come formatted),
However, since I have certain APPS which are on SD card, will a standard copy all files and folders to new card approach work, or I am in for some headache?

Okay, I kept is exFAT, and then copied all files from 32GB card to 64GB card. Works like a dream!
Thanks for your help!
Apps on SD card also work fine
