I have a similar card (mine is a sandisk extreme 64GB UHS-I/U3). When I got it it was formatted as EXFAT. Windows would not reformat to FAT32 because of size (it would start, then fail. Oh Windows...). I plugged the card into my phone and the phone offered to format it. I said yes and it formatted to FAT32 it in a few seconds. It has been working fine ever since (about a month). So yes, the phone will format it fine.

thanks

Windows is only capable of formatting fat32 with max partition size of 32GB.
That restriction was introduced to force the use of NTFS.
You can use EaseUS Partition Master for partition size higher than 32GB.

[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!

I think that the CWM messed up with the SD partition. Try to format in Windows ad tell me the results.
if I'm correct 32gb is the max for the n7000. Note II does up to 64gb
Nope. I have the same card and it shows me all of the space(about 59gb) and i juat put it in the phone.

Could be the reason OR the Card Reader may not be compatible with SDXC...
I got a Transcent dual (micro and standard Card reader) which works fine while some others incompatible.
Once he got the good card reader, he should try to format first the SDXC as exFat (on Windows 7) to be sure he got 64GB, then to get it work on the G-Note is another story...
I had to copy some files (any kind) on the card, then when plugged on the G-Note, the system detect an issue and propose to format the card (watch carefully at the messages)... When done, all is good !

Thank you for your answers! I have no solution, but I sent the card for a replacement and Im getting a Sandisk USB 3.0 Reader, so as soon as check I will inform with the results!

64gb sdcard in bionic possible?

Droid bionic has a max 32 gb external sdcard limitation. is this a hardware or software limitation?
thinking if it was software, could I create 2 partitions on 64gb card and mount extra partition in vold.fstab as usb1 or sdcard-ext2 or something?
thanks.

I do not know if this helps or not but my Samsung Precedent is supposed to have a 16gb SDcard limitation but I have a 32gb card in it and it reads it as such. AlI I can say is stick the card in and see what happens. Once I get my Bionic up and running I plan on moving the card to from phone to phone. Good Luck and hope it works.
I've been using a 64 GB card (SanDisk Extreme SDXC) with no problems.

Is the OS JellyBean?
is the card formatted exfat or fat32?
Is it class 6 or class 10?
thanks.
Note: reason I'm asking is I have been reading problems with class 10 micros SD drawing too much power and exfat not being recognized with usb thumb drives and I wasn't sure if that carried over to the Micro sd card(for those with a y cable, an OTG cable, and powered hub)
Software problem only, reformat the card as fat32, your phone will ask to do this, and it will work fine.
Been using my sandisk 64gb card for a year without issue in my Droid 3 and now on my Bionic.

I broke down and bought a sandisk 64gb micro sdxc
picked up a sandisk 64gb sdxc class 10 from best buy for $35 yesterday.\
It would not read in my bionic because it is formatted exfat file system. Android no like. ext2 or fat32 is preferred if your a windows user def fat32.. problem with formatting anything that large using windows is you need utils found here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773735
that diddn't work for me so I used easeus partition manager to delete partition on card and create a primary (not extended) partition that was unformatted. I then used the fat32format.exe from the link above to format the card all of which was done in windows xp
working now.
I'm sure there are some things here that are not neccessary but this is what worked for me after a few failed attempts.
do not copy files form your old card until you put a couple files on the new card and test it. you will just end up wasting your time when it doesn't work and you have to reformat it again or repartition it again and copy..... again. I copied 29g to the card like 3 times. lol.
my entire music collection will be with me at all times now!
64gb MicroSDXC is 30$ on Amazon (US).
I got one and it is working flawlessly in my bionic. I was running CM11 at the time, but have jumped a couple of ROMs since then.
I copied all files off of my old card to PC (using the card slot), formatted the new card IN MY PHONE, then copied the files on to the new cardPure success. No errors or anything.
Just my experience though! Bionic isn't supposed to handle 64gb cards, but mine did just fine.
64 megabyte SD card
I also purchased a 64 megabyte SD for my bionic and it works great.

[Q] (64GB) SD card format - exFAT vs FAT32

I just got a 64GB Class10 sdcard from Sandisk and it came preformated as exFAT.
I can't format it to FAT32 somehow, I'm only given the option s NFTS and exFAT.
Using Formatting Tools like guiformat.exe are giving me GetLastError()=32...
My Question now would be, would you recommend just using exFAT instead of FAT32?
The Z3C is the only device I own and is on 5.0.2 Stock Rooted.
Thanks in advance, great community!

You're right, gosh that takes me back. The old windows 95 and 98 machines could only take up to an 80GB HDD for this reason but then who would every use 80GB? That's HEAPS!

Sd card issue

Hello everyone,
I got my phone yesterday. When I inserted the SD card in the phone, it showed me that the SD card is not supported & it asked me to format the card as an internal storage. It's a Samsung Evo Plus 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 memory card. Is this a problem with the phone or the memory card ? The memory card was working perfectly fine until yesterday evening in my Moto G5 Plus.
I'm on the lest version of software i.e. Android 8.1 with April 2018 security patch.
Please advise...
sorry, but can you provide a screenshot of the storage settings page? might be helpful for my own case, thanks!

I just save all my data on my computer before format

I also did the same. But the memory card did not take data more than 30 GB in it. I had my previous data of 37 GB, but out of that only 30 GB got copied back in the card. Also now when I try to format the SD card, it shows the device is write protected.
Have you try to format it with a computer?
Maybe your card is counterfeit sd card, (one of my friend buy a samsug 32 go, but he received a 2 go sd card..), you can check your card capacity on computer with H2testw, it's freeware you can easily download. I only find french links, so you can google it
Software is in english and german.

Yes, I tried it using a PC only. The memory is a genuine Samsung memory card. Been using it for a year in my previous Moto phone.

Hi, did you try to format it as FAT32? I don't trust Nokia's Android will support exFAT.

FAT32 is default on it. Do you suggest I format it as FAT32 again?

You should give that a try. I'm sure exFAT is not suppprted, even in more expensive phones from Nokia.
