Specs for the US WiFi version - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am looking at the specs from the Samsung website about the Note and there are 2 things that I find strange.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/GT-N8013EAVXAR-specs
1. They are saying the Note only supports a 32 GB MicroSD card. That seems confusing because I believe one of their videos even talks about it supporting 64 GB so I am wondering which is correct.
2. On the US site there is no mention of the IR port. I know it is not a deal breaker but I thought it was kind of cool. Is the US version not coming with this?

It seems the "Bestbuy" one has the IR port
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...&defurl=false&viewtype=Alternate View 6&h=488
But its not mentioned anywhere in the specs
-TB-

I haven't seen too many tablets or phones that say they support 64GB microSDs, but many of them do.
The US version definitely has the IR port as well.

I have the Note - Phone. I have a San disk 64gb card in it and it works well. I would assume this will work in the tablet as well.
I want this thing so bad.
The Noteworthy Note. Running OBJECTION rc1 UCLF5 / h0tw1r3's r5s1 OC.

The 64gb cards do work but only if formatted as fat32. It doesn't support exfat (I assume that exfat support welcome in an update soon. Hardware wise the note is very similar to the international S3 which supports exfat)

[Q] 64GB MicroSDXC Card?

Has anyone been successful in getting one of these to work in their Xoom? If so how? I got one for Christmas and despite my efforts, it does not work. The Xoom does not recognize it at all. It was formatted to FAT32 and I tried to see if it would work with exFAT, but no luck either way. I have searched the forums and the web in general, but it seems this card is too new and no one really has much experience with them yet.
The xoom is only capable of reading 32 gig or less

Hi I recently read a post by a member on ukhot deals about this said card I will post what he said and hope it helps but I doubt it from zachjeep's post above;
Loads of devices including SGS, SGS2, Motorola razor, sg nexus, some HTC devices support the 64gb but not in sdxc format. When you put the card in, if it says not working or not formatted etc you have to select format it. Then it will format it in fat32 format and then you can store and read the 64gb card. But it won't be the higher speeds of sdxc cards but lower speeds of sdhc cards. Remember if you format it into fat32 format then you lose the higher speeds of sdxc cards but you will get the 64gb to work on older hardware. But some phones might not be able to work out how many mins you got left on card for video recording etc. But works fine other wise as reported on androidnz blog which has detailed posts and videos of this working. Or in devices that support USB OTG like in many Samsung devices among others you could get a cheap USB OTG adapter for few pounds then connect flash drives / USB devices / USB hubs / memory card readers etc and use cheaper lower capacity microsdhc 32gb instead and no need to pull out battery etc to pull out cards and can easily load cards and copy files over etc. See androidnz blog for videos etc.

I purchased the SanDisk 64GB MicroSD SDXC version and my xoom was able to see all 59GB after format.. I formatted it initially with my Rezound, if that helps.

Several users of the unlocked international Galaxy Note also report that the SanDisk 64GB microSDXC works in their phones. Apparently the formatting process takes a little while, but it works.
Thanks, I'll try the format in my Rezound and see what happens.
I have one of these
http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-And...AJTO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1359785521&sr=8-3
on my Xoom running EOS4 (4.2.1) and it works fine - the card comes unformatted, so you have to format on a PC first - once done it works fine....
I believe you have to be on ICS or later for SD-XC cards to work......

[Q] Maximum SD card size?

What's the maximum SD card size for the external slot on the SGS II LTE? I'm reading 32GB but I could have sworn I read somewhere that someone was using 64GB. Can anyone confirm/deny?
32gb is the max
Well, some members of the forums have gotten a 64GB card to work.
Hes right 32 Gb is the max i dont even know if 64 GB cards exist
Sent from my Galaxy Gio
the skyrocket is not compatible with SDXC which is the technology for any SD over 32gb. I didnt try it myself, but samsung does not create drivers for SDXC in the current line of phone. So maybe some supergeek somewhere did create a driver for his phone, but it will not work with yours
EDIT: i have found video proof that a 64gb card works on the GS2 non LTE but it comes with its fair share of problem including camera app not being able to save pictures to it, very slow population of library in music app and a bunch of small annoyances
That's what I suspected - I thought I'd seen something, sounds like it's not worth the effort with the 64GB cards.
Cheers!

Actually, it works just fine when you format it to Fat32 using the phone

OTA update resolved my sdcard issue

Just an fyi, I purchased the class 6 64gb card from Best Buy a while back and received the class 10 like everyone else. I knew it wouldn't work but held onto it anyway. Formatted to EXFAT after receiving the latest update and it's working great now. I haven't tried a file over 4gb yet but everything else is working perfect.
yep, this has been mentioned in the other OTA and Jelly threads. I tried a 7gb file and it worked.
Sadly, the OTA has not fixed my SD Card issue with the SanDisk Class 10 64GB card.
I am able to format it exFAT only with my Macbook. Does anyone think this will have any bearing on why my card still does not work in the Infinity?

When you say it's not working, what's happening? Does it work in other devices?
Yes, my SDXC 64GB Sandisk card works great in my Retina Macbook, Galaxy S3 and I just took the card into Bestbuy to try it on a Galaxy Note 10.1. All work perfect as advertised without problem nor error.
The card will not mount in the TF700T. Others are still having this problem too.
Asus customer service just got back to me stating that SDXC cards are not supported by the TF700T. Imagine that - flagship Android tablet doesn't support the best microSD cards. Who would have guessed!
Overnight of my new Note 10.1 is on the way!
I'll have a near brand new (1.5 weeks old) TF700T, with micro 32GB SDHC card and brand new case for sale soon

Seems a bit strange, as the TF201 could use the 64 Gb Class 10 MicroSD card just fine... I hadn't in any way expected that the newer model wouldn't support a card that was working fine in a previous model...
Yeah, it sucks.
Here is the reply that I got from Asus Technical Support not too long ago today.
Dear valued customer

when you went to best buy, did you try the card on the Infinity they had there?
---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------
i have a 64gb class 6. and i had issues with it prior to the update. Those issues are no longer there. I can now format my card to exfat and transfer files to and from it, within the device, without it rebooting or freezing.
No, they didn't have a TF700T on display for use otherwise I would have.
I dont believe its a problem with my specific device because others are still expressing the same problem on here too.
And my 700 works great with non-SDXC cards, but I ordered the $60 XC card so it need to work with that!
Mine still doesn't work unless its fat file system. Ntfs and exFat only allows me to use 400mb out of 32gb. I'm using 32gb sandisk SDHC card. This is ridiculous. How do they make products worse as new ones come out.
Update: Nevermind I was formatting on my Mac, had to use diskpart on my win7 PC to get it working. Issue has been resolved. Wifi copy to SD card is still slow but I guess has nothing to do with formatting. Also tried copying a 12GB mkv file and that worked as well. Thanks ASUS!!!

That is strange no doubt. When. I said my issues were resolved I was referring to the use of a MICROSDXC 64gb Class 10 card. I wonder why it works in mine and not yours. Wait, you said you're formatting on a MacBook? I think that's your problem looking at one of the responses here.

Good points guys, BUT that same formated card in OSX (exFAT) worked in my Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 10.1 with no issue. My other card, 32GB SDHC, formated in my Mac and worked just fine in the TF700T.
I have also tried formatting the card in those working Android devices and then putting it back in the TF700T with no joy.
Obviously I am not able to format the card in OSX to NTFS....
At one point I thought that formatting it in OSX might be the problem, but I dont believe so any more. I dont have any Windows or Linux boxes anymore so I guess I'm out.

[Q] 64GB Micro SD card on GT-P3113

I believe when i bought my tab, i read somewhere that it supports expandable storage up to 32GB but I recently read somewhere that class 10 64GB sd cards supposedly work on the GT2 10.1" in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684705
So I was just wondering if the same would apply to my GT2 7"?
I'm looking to get something like this http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Mobil...59672905&sr=8-3&keywords=micro+sd+64+class+10
it is a possibility...
According to the forum link that you posted as long as the micro sdcard is a Sandisk ultra class 10 then it may work. Those specific model sdcards work the absolute best with android. I have the ultra class 10 sdcard but only in the 32gig. Now that I know that there is a possibility that the 64 gigs may work I am going to buy one and try it out. I will order one tonight from amazon and when I get it I will let you know if it works. However, I have my galaxy tab 2 10.1 rooted running android 4.2.1 the CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly build. Has anyone tried the 64 gig sdcard with this upgrade?
64gb cards work fine. At least the sandis and samsung ones do. The sandisk can be had for ~$50 and the Samsung ones are ~$90 right now. Last week they were over $120.

Not for me. My tablet sees it and mounts it, Titanium Backup sees it as well but has no option of choosing it for a backup location. Some apps see it as well (Poweramp for example). None of the file browsers (even with root access) do. The card is there, but it's useless.
Make sure you reformat it in settings in the device your using it in if your having problems.

[Q] Does Note Pro 12.2 (P905) support UHS-1 or UHS-3?

Hello,
I am thinking about buying a 128 GB micro sd card. Just wondering if Note Pro 12.2 P905 supports UHS-3, if it does, perhaps I would wait it a bit longer for the Lexar one (1000x with UHS-3), otherwise I might just go with the
Sandisk one (SDSDQUAN-128G-G4A).
Cheers.

It has pretty much the very same specs than Galaxy Note 3, which supports UHS-3. So my guess, I said guess, you gonna find support for this micro SD card.

I've been using a Sandisk 128 SD card for about 6 months without issues. I did go through 3 of the cheaper cards and you get what you pay for....... Best of luck - i am rooted and using TWRP on a P905. Best of luck. :fingers-crossed:
It does, yes.
Thing is, the MicroSD specs written on the official specs list are based on whats available at the moment of the first production. So the information doesn't account for newer cards, even though they work perfectly.

Thanks for all the replies. Then this brings to my attention that why none of the cards works as fast as what they are advertised. Is the problem of the cards, or it is simply something is not implemented on the machine so that the maximum speed cant be reached ?
