Is anyone else having trouble getting the g tablet to recoginize 32 gb sd cards my smaller cards are recognized
Edit: got the tablet to see the files but still can't video play
I have a Corsair 32 gig USB drive and my G-Tablet sees and reads it just fine.
Of course, I have rooted with r4root and use Root Explorer to get the the USBdisk folder.

Thanks I finally figured it out I was trying to access the wrong directory.

I've searched the forums and googled, but can't find a definitive answer to this question that I would like to have answered before actually buying a TF.
Can you get files larger than 4 GB onto the internal storage of the TF, and will the TF read them properly?
I'm asking in the context of wanting to play H.264 mp4 movies that I would convert from Blu-ray. Some of the converted movies are over 4 GB. I know the microSD card can't be used for these because the TF (or Android) won't recognize NTFS on the microSD card. So I would need to play them from internal storage.
Thanks.
Rooted stock 3.2 will use NTFS on mine!

Thanks, but I don't want to root. Do you know whether an unrooted TF can play can play mp4's larger than 4 GB from internal storage?
I downloaded a torrent to my internal memory (not SD or MicroSD) that was a 4.3GB iso file. I then copied it to my computer via cable. So I know the file system can at least handle it.

Thanks. That helps.
yes it play the video just fine, i have all my p90x videos on internal memory. i also used dvdfab.
I believe mine was still seeing and using my ntfs card before I rooted, on 3.1 it did not however.
I currently have a 16GB card which I used to install the fireware and Rom for my phone. If I switch to a 32GB card, would I need to go through the same process of installing my fireware and Rom or are these saved on the system memory?
Nope, no need to reinstall anything.
Think of the phone like an old PC. The SD card is just the 3.5 inch floppy disk. You can take it out but the computer still runs on the hard drive.
What you'll want to do is hook the phone up to your computer first, copy the entire contents of the SD card to a folder on your computer, then change to the new 32 GB card, then copy everything back to the new card.
The phone and your apps won't know that anything changed (other than seeing 16GB of extra free space)
Everything else will work fine. Your apps will find all your data in the right spots.
Unless you use app 2 sd

Hi Guys, I am sure someone on here will know the answer to this but I cant find it anywhere. I have a 16gb sd card in my lg 3d with no probs but its running out of disk space so I have bought a 32 gb which I understand the lg 3d can handle ok.
I used Win xp to copy the files over to the new disk which was fat 32 formatted by the phone. But when I insert the new 32 gb disk in the phone it says scanning media, but when I explore the disk all the files are gone apart from the dcmi directory, root directory files and one other directory but my video directory with films in them, the gameloft folder all gone ???
The pics & vids in the camera folder are all corrupt too ? can anyone assist as to whats going on here, when I put the card back in win xp laptop all files are the same as in phone as if its deleting certain files/folders when inserting, almost as if its resetting the disk each time its inserted.
Any thoughts or help on this appreciated. The 16 gb works fine every time its inserted ???
System is rooted with custom firmware \v21d feb 17 2012 which is awesome all round as a operating system for LG 3d, great battery life, 3g and fast.
Thanks
Paul

Did you wipe cache?
I had this problem 9 months ago but can't remember how I solved it..
Did you unmount / mount the card?

This happend to me once before but on the htc magic not sure what caused this, soon after files got corrupted it failed. It was a sandisk 4gb card what i did was reflash the phone. Inserted the micro sd into the pc card reader used windows disk management, found the card right click delete volume then created new fat32/fat partition can't remember anyway inserted it back havent had that problem since gave the phone to my mom still runs.
Thanks for the replies guys, but I find it hard to believe that wiping the cache or reformatting the phone is the answer to this, as the 16gb once put back in works flawlessly, would it be the speed of the disk is there a minimum speed that the disk should be, it wasnt and expensive one and works fine in my asus tf101 but phones can be fussy about the speed of a card.
i did the formatting in win xp, I will try mounting & unmounting to see if it helps as it sees the card ok, just directories are not seen as if it deletes the big folders like gameloft but keeps the dcmi folder but the pics & vids become corrupt ???
Just seems odd that I can see the disk, and its correct size and some of the files on the disk but those big directories are moved by the phone when the scan is done after insertion??
Look forward to thoughts as to the removal of these files on insertion.
Thanks
Give This a try.
Thanks will do, should I unmount then remount before putting the gameloft folder back on??? as it just removes the big folders at the moment.

Hi seems to have worked I formatted as 32bit, copied files using win xp, unmounted old sd card off lg optimus 3d and remounted new 32 gb card and after scan it all appears ok without deletion.
Havent rebooted as yet but will do soon to see if it erases then, but no news is good news. I will assume fixed.
Many thanks to all contributions on this thread.

Hello guys. I believe before I would able to go Computer, GT-N8013 then select both hard drive and able to access all my pic and video now it doesn't show new pic and some of older pic i had this problem for a while. I'm not sure if it's because I upgraded the version but I did remember
I did a factory reset. Also seem to be a bit slow to load up preview in gallary. Os I use is Windows 7 and Window 8. I want to view all the files. Any idea? Yes the new photos is in my gallery.
Have you installed Samsung USB drivers or Kies ???

I had a problem recently where I could see photos in the gallery on my Note but the PC could not read the SD card either by USB connection or by plugging the SD card directly into the PC card reader. I only realised there was a problem when I could not delete a photo from the tablet!
The solution for me was to reformat the SD card on the PC (the format card option on the tablet had no effect) and then (sigh) copy all 16gb off photos back to the card.
If your problem is with the internal storage then this doesn't really help but ultimately it may be worth considering reformatting the internal SD storage.

Well I am able to delete photo on the tablet. Problem is I am able to access the internal and external memory except the new photo it wont show up if i connect to computer but does show up the old picture. Another thing is on my S2 once i changed back to stock rom i have same problem. What I can do is zip all the pic of internal then upload to a host website. I didn't had this problem with my Samsung Galaxy note tablet on 16gb now I have the 32 gb tablet since i got rid of 16gb version in Mexico. Kies is a no go. I'll try samsung driver but thing is my computer do detect the device and able to access the old files and files i put in.
I have a shield tablet withthe latest ota update. i also have a . 64gb sd card that i would like to use in the tablet, however i am unable to get my nusic on the card. i have tried.fat32, exfat and ntfs and transferred.my files using both a local card reader and a direct usb to the tablet. files seen to transfer fine but when i look at the card with esreader they are not there.
windows path says \shield tablet\sdcard but using ereader says i have an emulated sd card, sd1, and sd2. open to all ideas.

I'm having a similar issue when I install or move a game to the external SD. All the games are gone from the app drawer and just force close. Have you figured out a fix for this yet?
