[Q] N7000 + 64GB SDcard = weird behaviour - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody...
I currently see a weird behavior with my N7000 i'd like to clear up.
I have the N7000 with 16GB internal memory (2 standard partitions) plus one 64gb SD card (SDcard1).
The card (exFat) is mounted correctly and works...
I am running Cyanogen stable release cm-10.1.3-n7000.
The weirdness starts, when the card contains more than 32GB of data:
-Camera shows error: No external storage
-SD card is still accessible.
-Internal partition 2 (SDcard0) is no longer mounted
-External SDcard (SDcard1) is available with full capacity
The problem only occurs, when the external SD card contains more than 32gb AND the device is rebooted. When i put in the freshly formatted card and fill it up over 32gb, internal storage stys mounted and works.
So it seems to me, that the N7000 or Android for that matter can only manage 32gb of the SDcard and the internal memory at a time, at least during mounting SDcard1.
Any hints or solutions are welcome...

In order to help you properly more info is needed. what brand SD card is it, did you do the formatting or by the phone? I ask because I had the same problem with my GS4 using a cheap 64GB card from ebay. I did everything I could including changing many kernels to find one that would read the card properly, no go. In my research I found out that there are some people that are selling cards that are not truly 64GB and conforming to the eXFAT system. I returned the card for a refund and spent a little more and bought a Sandisk 64GB (true eXFAT formatted) and all my problems went away. I am not here saying that you must buy Sandisk, I am suggesting that you try a true high capacity eXFAT card to see if there is a difference. I explained my problem to the vendor and presented my research and he recalled the card without a hic-up.

Try to format it to fat32

[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??

[Q] SD card not recognising full 16GB

Some info:
LG optimus 2x
MIUI rom
16GB SD card
Fat 32 format
only 392mb used
PC recognises full 16gb (well, 14ish due to formatting) and phone sees 5.50GB. It also says that its only got 40-50mb space remaining which is completely wrong.
I've formatted the SD card through the phone & PC (using the slower format too)
The SD card was used as a recovery SD for my Nook Colour before the current phone and I'm not sure whats wrong.
Any suggestions?
Just to make sure:
Check that you're not looking at the internal sd (since that one is 5.5 GB)
Hmm, how embarrassing. I think I am looking at the internal SD card.
However under the SD card menu, I can unmount/mount the (5.5gb) internal memory and format it (which I've already formatted )
Any thoughts on how to view the external SD card? there doesnt seem to be a menu for it in the MIUI settings
I would look in /mnt/emmc, sound likes the mount points have been switched.

[Q] Sandisk microSDXC 64GB class 10 UHS1 showing 27.46GB!

I have bought Sandisk microSDXC 64GB class 10 UHS1. When I put it in my computer using USB2.0 Kingston Mobile Reader it could not recognise it. I removed it and I placed it in my Galaxy Note. I went into clockworkmod 6.19 (Non Touch) and I partitioned the card with 2GB or 4GB (I do not remember exactly!!!) and Swap size 256k. When my phone restarted, the phone did not recognize the card. Therefore, I went through the internet to find a solution. I found the program "EaseUS Partition Master 9.1.1 Home Edition" and reformatted the card with FAT32 and cluster size 32KB. When it finally finished, it gave me the size 27.46GB!! I reformatted through SD Formatter 3.0 hoping that the partition used through Clockworkmod messed up the actual size of the card. I successfully re-formatted the card, however the size remained the same. I know that the size of a microSDHC card 32GB is around 29GB, therefore it does not explain size 27.46GB.
My question now, if there is an answer!!! Is the card faulty or did Clockworkmod messed with the card?
Please advise if possible!
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, because I think this a very strange story!
Wrong section.
Have you tried formatting the card with your phone?
Settings > Storage (Scroll to the bottom)
Make sure to pick the correct one.

How sure you are that your Kingston reader is SDXC compatible? If it's not, it can be that your card is damaged now and can't be fixed (I had that issue). Second thing you should have format the card using some exFAT compatible ROM (for example XLS7 or XLSA) in storage section of the phone, not in CWM.
You should also check if there isn't any other partitions on the card using EaseUS Partition Master. I would delete all partitions on the card and then format using exFAT. But it would work only if the card isn't already damaged by incompatible reader.
If you search abit you will find that sdxc cards used with sdhc reader can be damaged. google it you will find it.

Format it with the phone. That usually gets it.

[Q] Problem with internal memory

I have a chance to buy a used Samsung Galaxy Tab at a great price, but there is a problem with the internal memory. It has been rooted and right now it is operating on CM10 Nightlies from the SD card. The internal memory partition is recognized but can't be accessed. Is there any chance the internal memory can be recovered?
since the previous owner went a great length to get it working with only external sd, I think likely the internal memory is beyond help. You can ask him how far did he go trying to fix it.

Thanks for the reply. The previous owner said he never tried any fixes.
I might have mistaken your initial info as saying you have the whole ROM installed on external sd card.
If it is just the internal sd card not showing, you could try to format the internal sd card from cwm and see what happens.

Sorry, I was unclear. The whole ROM IS installed on the external SD card. There's no problem running the ROM from the SD card and no problem with the SD card itself. It's the Galaxy Tab internal memory that is bad. The internal memory is recognized but cannot be accessed. I guess I'm wondering if the internal memory can be reformatted and fixed.
I bought it for next to nothing, so even if I can only use the ROM from the SD card, its not a big deal.

Divide SD card between external and adopted storage

I have a stock Moto X4 and am running out of internal storage space (32gb). Is there a way to partition my 128gb SD card into 64gb external storage and 64gb adopted storage? Ive used minitool partition to divide the card into two partitions but my phone only sees the "external" FAT32 card and not the ext2 or ext4 partition on the card. I found a thread on reddit using adb but that didnt work either.
Any suggestions????
Thanks for the help and guidance
Are you encrypted? I seem to remember that you had to be unencrypted due to an issue with FBE..... Probably wrong though...
no. Nothing is encrypted. I know that once a card is designated as adopted it gets encrypted though.
