128gb sd card

Hi,
I read on a blog that somebody was able to use a 128gb formatted to FAT32 with his Streak (I cannot post the URL). I've tried the same, but have got the message that the sd card is damaged. Any ideas where I am going wrong?
Thanks.

The Dell Streak 7 only supports up to 32GB cards. Period.

Hopefully I can post this link:

Did you not read what I read?

why not just have 4 32gb cards, they're hot swappable, I doubt you'd fill them all with apps (dont challenge it as you will only make yourself look like an arse for downloading that many apps and never using them) and probably use them only for videos, in which case just put the ripped movie or series on an SDC and enjoy that, honestly its hot swappable for a reason.

if you did manage to negate the kernel support for NAND sizes on the SDC less than 32gb only, I doubt you'd have much stability.. also you spelt sweet wrong

For the doubting Thomas's - especially Nocturnal_50. I guess I'll be accused of photoshopping this....

I think we owe the guy an apology. Read around the internet and it does work.

I think that Noobies are treated a bit too harshly at times and I'm glad to see one strike back! ConGrats on that one.

I blame misinformation from Dell. Windows only supports formatting partitions up to 32gb with FAT32 (however you need a 3rd party tool to partition beyond windows limits, but hey thats why Gparted was made), stupid Dell representatives giving us useless information, the representatives should know all the information about the products hardware support instead of just giving us a standard "we didnt get it to work with sizes larger than 32gb so it must be NAND handling restriction"

The biggest difference is that android currently doesnt support exFAT (though it would be nice as fat32 has many limitations)
According to wikipedia though, SDXC is electrically and protocall-ly backwards compatable. BUT you lose some of the benefits of the new capability bits (such as the higher speed interfaces)
Also apparently the S7's roms support it at the software level. This was the part that was tested.
The fat32 format limitation is completely artificial as older versions of windows will allow formatting up to like 127+ GB, they did it because (at least on standard HDDS) it's a really bad fs to use. It's terribly inefficient as you have to use 4k blocks.
It's usually easier to say "it's not supported" then it is to say "we havnt tested it, we dont know if it's compatable" for support and liability reasons.
Doesnt benefit us as the customer though, but it's a fact of life.

Thanks giveen. Have to admit - the amount and rate of apologies is deafening

Thanks wptski - being a noobie - completely agree. I joined the forum to a) get help then b) hopefully give help. To be sniped at in a completely different post about this issue makes me feel that I am not getting a) and unlikely to give b)

As I received no apologies from the sniping from what I considered were experienced members (Nocturnal_50 especially, ElfinJNoty & Archer), and no help apart from pointing me to posts I had already read and didn't answer my queries - I'm leaving. After less than 2 weeks, that's a damning inditement of the way that some people answer and reply to questions. If those people continue in this manner, the forum will simply die.
I thought the point of forums was to help others - not to assasinate them at the earliest point - and give condescending answers.
There was some work involved in getting the 128gb drive to work (if you remember originally I asked how to make it work). The SSD type, how I made it work, will remain my IP.
Remember, if you want others to help, you need to help others.

dont get butthurt over not following the forum rules, I am certain that you were provided with the n00b video link which highlights the majority of the important ones, sure people get pissed off by rules but not following them leads to the situation at hand, which looks a lot like someone who cant handle the search features

Leighv
I believe I asked how you did this. If I have offended you then I apologize because that was not my intention. I look forward to you reconsidering and contributing to the forums. And if not, then thank you for making us aware of this new information and enjoy your streak.

The waiting Room - Off Topic

While everyone is waiting for their phones, I thought I would start a thread where we could just talk without worrying about going off-topic. If you want to talk about how other phones compare to the HTC First, rant about rotten fruit and the vegetables that use them, etc, than this is the place.
Just please remember that all of the forum rules still apply here though.

welcome to XDA
Hi everybody, I am one of the mods on the team, welcome to the forums. If you post a question thread here in the General forum and notice it is missing, please check the One Q&A forum and you might just find it there.
If you posted a placeholder thread simply to gain thanks for doing nothing, you might have to keep looking...
Thank you,

about the placeholder threads.... you will close the placeholders or delete them
? people start the placeholder index threads (they are closed) and then when the device is released their thread is opened again and that is not fair. if such threads are opened again then what is the use of closing them at the first place. it would be better if you delete any placeholder threads when they are created.
just a request to mods that you delete placeholders.
thanks

To be honest I hadn't decided completely. I understand that such threads are going to be opened even though they are really off-topic and have nothing to do with the phones. In some cases depending on the quality of the post and the attitude of the member, I might undelete/reopen it, but I might not since the only real purpose in opening such a thread now is to gain thanks for doing nothing of real benefit and I don't think that type of behavior is generally to be rewarded. Especially when it is really of no benefit whatsoever. Not like a placeholder for a [GUIDE] or something actually potentially useful, especially if done by a well-known member with a good history.

Not yet. But according to The Verge, the One Mini will be released in the US (AT&T) on Friday. Hopefully, some dedicated Dev might be able to port its (4.2) ROM to the First - or use it to help get CM or other ASOP working.

some pics i took
i think the htc first is a sexy looking thing, and decided to take some pictures using a background defocus mode. didnt quite work out since the camera doesnt recognize PHONES as a face or anything to focus on...so i did the best i could and came up with this.
i had to compress the pcitures, originaly each one was around 3.5 - 4 megabytes in size and was around 2000x1400 in size or something around there. in otherwords. huge.

thing is guys. Rashed can do it. like he could do it blindfolded and port like anything no joke ive seen this happen. but what he needs is like a ton of spare time. being in highschool is busy stuff. im just fresh out of there and into college, barely find some time to sit down and ruu my phone cause i use it for like school and stuff.
so if we all have patience either he will do it or someone else, so dont get sad.
also, some plain logic. the more we wait the more people buy the first and the more support we get.

Sadly the First is discontinued so not much people will be buying it unless they are looking for it specifically lol.

A read about the forum state regarding Kit Kat OTA update

This is not a rant or a moan or whatever you want to call it. This is just clearing a few things up after the last few days what i have been reading on the forum.
Firstly support for N4 will still be there after this update, and i am sure we have at least one more major update to come for our beloved device. People saying that our phone will be next are just talking rubbish. People all over the forum are crying thinking that our device will be next. Until a confirmation from Google can people please stop with the conspiracy theories.
Also regarding with the launcher. Now i am not that really bothered if it gets released or not as i do not use Google Now. But again were is the official confirmation that the launcher will not be included for our device? There is none. Just tech sites writing there stuff as usual and every one is lapping it up and making a fuss.
I love my phone and i do not see a reason why i should upgrade to the Nexus 5. I do not want though people in the forum to start moaning about things that are not official yet from the God itself which is Google. Yes they are not perfect but until the actual release gets to our device and we have things missing then fine all hell can break lose.
Oh and one last thing. Yes am gutted that we not got the update soon as the release came out but we are still the first to get it were other mega devices are not getting it at least December or Xmas the earliest..So am still thankful for the Nexus line. But that will start not meaning anything soon anyway if they carry this new strategy of there to put money first before anything else.
But till then please take a chill pill people.
This will get shut down and deleted am sure but i just wanted people to read this and seriously take it easy till there is ACTUAL CONFIRMATION by GOOGLE THEMSELVES..
Mods sorry if this should not be here but sometimes a man has enough when reading through the forums and having whiny kids whine all the time.
And to add...We are XDA...If things go missing and are not included in the build that our beloved N4 should get then people trust our great and respectful Developers here who are if you do not mind me saying better than those at Google..We will have those features that the N5 has and if not should be better build than stock...So please show your support for our devs and less whining and help this place for newbies instead of moaning all the time about something that has not been confirmed yet

:highfive: for you!
This is exactly my opinion on the subject.
If you are on XDA, odds are that you know how to mod your phone, and believe me, everything that will not come with the official OTA will be made avaliable soon here on XDA.
Right, you might need root, you can argue you do not want to root but then what is the point of your anger if you do not want to take action to get something you want?
Just wait for Google to release the OTA and everything will be clear!
Should be soon I guess

exactly my friend. until something has been confirmed i do not understand why people are panicking. and by the next update which will be by summer time our phone should be more than capable to handle it and i am sure we are in for that to. phones should have a support from the OS development team ie Google at least maximum two years...so why are people are stressed is beyond me.
Now as the Galaxy Nexus that is a strange one and Google should state the reasons why they are not supporting it but again that is nothing to do with me or concerns me..But for people to start saying that the N4 is next is beyond silly to say

Sure there is confirmation. It is not included in the Nexus 7 WiFi KitKat update. And Google confirmed it with The Verge and said it is possible they will bring it to other devices other than the N5 someday but not initially.

Great post OP.. You know what I think it is? Purely my opinion after mulling over how absolutely weird the 4.4 rollout and release has been.
Ever been in a corporate environment where someone important is replaced? It's hell.. JBQ left and was replaced.. So here you have a new guy who is pulling the old corporate "I'm new and have to flex my superiority and change things to make it look like I'm doing something different and being productive" (ie: Fishing for his next promotion).. This happens in nearly every business.. It's hilarious to watch happen in real life because most employees know it's coming.. 3 months later after everyone hates the new guy and his useless changes everything goes right back to the way it was. I'm certain all the rumblings this is causing is being heard..

This is all very nice but it makes my think longer and hard did l make the right decision buying a nexus 4.With the ota out for nexus 7 and 10 l just wonder what the delay is with nexus 4

Please enlighten me, what's the difference between your thread and the one that got closed. You've already labeled all that don't share your point of view by "whiners" (btw weren't you the one that also happened to "whine" at the beginning? ) so what do you expect? It's obvious that any sort of discussion won't be possible here. Your thread will sooner or later became exactly the same place of mindless arguments and eventually closed.
But you're right. If am not interested to participate so I am done. Good luck though, I am sure you're get many "thanks".

It has to do with the Ti core not being supported anymore. Also, not being supported by Ti did not meant it doesn't work for Galaxy Nexus, just means Google would not support a device without former support to its hardware.
Anyways, Galaxy Nexus got 4.4 already, go Install it

To be honest the reason why i opened this thread is to get my opinion about the many things that i have read on the forum. Many false information that is going around by others is beyond ridiculous because they listen to tech sites most of them without any proper confirmation by Google itself...Now as to regarding the updates that are coming for our device if there is an official changelog by Google to say what are the changes from the older nexus devices compare to the N5 then i will eat my hat if it is out already stating what we are getting and missing out on..
But again people forget that XDA is here to help..Hence why we should not be ranting and raving
What am trying to say is that i want this thread to stick to a proper adult discussion about our device regarding the build that we should get..And i do not want people to give mis-information till we get it from the Big Boss itself

I can understand your point here OP but, the purpose of forums such as this one is to allow for open discussion on a topic. I see no issue with speculation or assumption as long as people keep their heads. That is, after all, what makes things interesting and keeps people intrigued. If we went purely on the facts at hand 100% of the time, discussions would end fairly quickly and most forums would be desolate places.

A lot of us have already looked at it and still are looking at it we've had it since Monday. Probably beyond my capabilities but i do know the eteam have been looking at it

Seriously. ..whats wrong with people!? Sure i could have, and no I'm not in search of fame and glory. Maybe when i was 15 and also couldn't behave and be nice to people. What i meant was, that if you think i should have posted this in another thread you can point it out in a nice way or just klick thanks and move on. What rudness leads to is real newcomers wont dear to post anything and therefor wont learn and maybe we all miss out on a great contributior. And i disagree as the other threads i found was either saying our phone got LP or was closed. And i would like to give a big thank you to sawdoctor. He answered in a good manor and that should have been the end of this thread. Or did you alla know that i had been looked in to!?

Yes Sawdoctor, you are completely right ?. And AxAtAx makes a good point also. But my main point stands. We should stop flameing and help each other out. A simple "we have threads to discuss this" would have sufficed. Spare the bad attitude. Or i can be wrong? Maybe a bad climate is what everybody wants?
I really understand the concept of starting thread upon thread with the "same" topic isn't productive . But i really thought this was different than "Wow LP is here!". But if you all think otherwise i apologies.

Dad got an Edge and installed leaked Lollipop on it. If I can do something that could help porting it to our Note 4 please tell. But it shouldn't involve root, he doesn't want to root it (yet?).

Ive ran a note edge rom i modded on my note 4 and it throws off the calibration of the screen even after trying to make the exits so it doesnt do that make my note 4 practically unusable til i got into service mode and reset the calibration

Note 8 Device Counter!

Lets start a counter in this forum and let devs know about popularity of this device so we can get good AOSP rom etc as fast as possible!
"+1" from my side

+1 for me and another +1 for my cousin who's not in xda

Really pointless thread. If you've followed any of the other AOSP request threads, you'll know that it's a very complicated and involved task. Amassing "+1" posts isn't going to motivate anyone more to take on such a task.
On a more personal note, I don't know why someone would buy a device like the Note 8 just to strip it of all of its features. Personally, I bought my device because of all the features Samsung has put on it. I wouldn't put AOSP on this, likely even if someone paid me, because it would defeat the purpose of having this device in the first place.

We all have different opinions and preferences, so I think we all belong here. Of course support for devs is always welcome, but a +1 thread may not be the most effective way to go about getting what you want...They can already see the view count on aosp-related threads after all. Maybe try reaching out directly instead.

Well, devs, I think, try to develop roms to attain a better experience, adding some features, taking out some not very popular ones, in general to make the overall performance better, as Max Terrible here stated, buying a note series device to strip it down of ALL the features that make it what it is, in my opinion, is pointless, to that effect, you should get a pixel device, clean pure android out of the box

Do explain to me how having a thread full of people posting +1 to try and convince a dev to make an AOSP ROM, is considered supporting the dev?
I definitely support the devs and the great work they do on here, but recruiting a mob to basically create a petition for someone to do something you want, is not what I define as support.
I assure you, any and all devs working on the Note 8 are aware of the very, very small group of people that want an AOSP ROM.

There would be lot of people who dont upgrade mobile regularly (may be 6 months) some upgrade after 2 years. And u might be knowing samsung way of updates so aosp rom etc is very help to have a taste of latest updates. I know only note special things wont be working but many extra things u will get in these roms. Till now we are not able to use gcams! This shows development for this rom. Intent of this thread was to see popularity of this device and let dev see the demand:laugh:

Thanks for +1 people! Lets go guys!!
