Hi guys,
so I have CarbonROM running on my Z1C:
CARBON-CR-8.0-PAX-RELEASE-z3c-20210320-1552.zip
I formatted the card as NTFS and was suprised that the device told me the card was corrupted. I inserted it into another android phone which read the card just fine.
Put it back into the Z3C - corrupted.
I searched online and found this:
Does Carbon ROM support exFAT ???
I have to post here because I do not have enough post (more than 10) in roder to post under the right thread... I am not sure that Carbon ROM accepts exFAT on SD card because my mini does not see the card after installation Which format should I...

"Carbon Rom does not support exFat as of now. You will have to format the card as NTFS or ext4 to use it in the Carbon Rom."
This was 2014.
So in 2021 CarbonROM can read exFAT but not NTFS?
Thanks for some opinions!
Cheers

All cards 32gb or less (SDHC cards) come formatted in Fat32.(Part of SDHC spec) This includes a file limit of 4gb max for a single file.
All cards 64gb or more (SDXC cards which the XZR supports) come preformatted in exFat (Part of SDXC spec). This does not have a 4gb file limitation.
The stock Sony Firmware supports exFat. (I bought a 64gb SDXD formatted with exFat and plugged it in and worked right away). Most recoveries do to. (TWRP does at least).
However, I flashed CM11 onto my XZR. CM11 does _NOT_ support exFat. Initially I backed up and reformatted my card in Fat32. Angry with the 4gb file limitation (I have many 720p and 1080p movies over 4gb..) I actually took the microSD card out, used a adapter and hooked it up to a Linux system (Ubuntu 13.10 in my case) and used gParted to format the card to EXT4 filesystem. EXT4 is a filesystem most Linux machines use and support natively. This is actually the filesystem most newer Android device use for their internal SDCard / Data partitions! I popped the card back in, CM11 reads it perfectly! And I was able to copy files over 4gb to the device!
So its not a hardware thing since the XZR is SDXC compatible. Just formatting / partition time issue.
Just my 2 Cents.

thank you try now
Hi,
I've stock ICS (rooted, with Kowalski kernel M1) on my P990. I've a 32GB SD card, and I wonder if I can mount it automatically with ext4, NTFS of exFAT file system. Currently it only accepts FAT32, anything else will be unmounted automatically.

I know for sure that NTFS does not work.
eXFATshould work... You should check if there are patches for this.
Is your current card with Fat 32 working with Windows PC, this will check if your card is not out of order.
Hi there would be great to know why there seems to be no ext4-support for the external SDCard?
Thought due to the used Linux-Kernel there would be support for ext3/ext4 out of the box, but my SDCard has to be reformatted to exFAT after i put it in.
Is there some reason why this is the case?
The SDCard is a 64gb Sandisk.
Thanks!

Lack of exFat and NTFS support is a feature of AOSP.
Change ROM to another one.
Hi,
I know that for a USB-OTG stick can use Paragon to make exFAT and NTFS work.
How about microSD and exFAT for LOS 18.1 (/e/OS) on S10?
It doesn't work for me and If that doesn't work in general, then I would mind using NTFS or ext4 format.
I've also tried both and it doesn't work when I format it with Linux.
When I format it with Android built in formating option, then it does it with FAT32. I've tried to copy a 8GB File onto the SD and it give's me the impression that it was successful (no error message) when it actually wasn't. This is just a fun fact
My linux refused to copy a 8GB File to SD via MTP. This is how it should be with FAT32.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
