CWM will read and write to external SD - BUT IT MUST BE FORMATTED FAT32. CWM cannot read ExFAT.
I got a cheap 32 GB SD Card just for holding Nandroid backups and ROM files for use with CWM - Formatted it to FAT32 and use it with CWM only.
It only takes a few seconds to eject my 64GB card (ExFAT) and put the 32 GB one in.
What version of CWM are you using? Zedomaxs works with my exFAT sd card and so does Darkmans touch recovery....
Can't say about TWRP but I believe I tried it early oin and it didn't have exFAT support, might be able to now...
TWRP does access Ext SD.

Hi there everyone, I just picked up my Transformer today, and while Im not new to the whole flashing business (done it lots on my Galaxy S) I cant seem to get this working on the tablet. Ive managed to get it rooted and CWM loaded, but every time I try to flash a zip from my sd card its lot letting me mount the sd card.
Was hoping someone would be able to help me out
CWM only read files from the Removable micro sd card and not internal sd card.
Also the removable micro sd need to be in a fat32 format

Are certain microSD cards not compatible? I've currently got one in FAT32 format and it cannot read that either.
Some people have reported problems with using a MicroSD when formatted as Fat32 through windows. Try using an SD card formatting tool. Apparently when formatting an SD Card through windows it doesn't format it correctly.
Also some people say they had to try a few card before one could be read.
anyone else faced problem with ty style cwm 5.0.2.7 , i have 16gb fat 32 card , went to cwm to format it, chose 1gb sd ext 128 swap and it says formating...

making installing apps on external memory wia cyanmobile settings, wonder how will that go. without any a2sd script s2e amarullzs or similar.
Sorry but I'll suggest you not to partition sd card via CWM coz it has some risk to damaged your sdcard..
Just partition via minitools coz its a lot better and more save..

Hi all:
Hopefully you can assist me I currently have a 32 gig card in the 8013 with lnk2sd running fine I got my hands a new 64 gig card but when I run mini partition my W& machine doesn't see the card for anything beyond 32 gig the 8013 sees it as a 64 though how can I partition it to be able toy use link2sd any clue?
Check the SD card properties in Windoze and see how it's formatted. I think FAT32 has a 32 GB limit. If it is FAT32 reformat it in ExFAT
Did you partition it already... Also what ROM are u running and how did u get link2sd working... I can't get it to work

No rom just straight root
I formated my 64GB in fat32 on my PC. Everything is now o.k.
If you use files more than 4 GB it is better to format in exfat.

I'd say Durango01 has used a 3rd party app to format FAT32. I have used Easius partition manager to do this but as JB supports exFAT, why would you?
CMR doesn't support exfat so if you are planning to use your SD card for backups as well as appdata it wont work. Best way would be to partition and have one partition exfat and another as exfat for larger files.
Sd card Help
Guess I'll just stick with 32g. This is all confusing to me. Thanks.
i bought 64gb sd class 10 and followed zedomax mode and converted my sd to my internal memory no need to partation
I have a class 10 64 gb micro sd card installed in my SN10.1. It works fine in the tablet but I cannot mount it while in recovery for flashing ROMs or making backups. Has anyone figured a wor around for this. I am using TWRP currently.
Edit: The card is formatted fat32

My S3 is running 6.0.3.0 CWM and it won't read my Sandisk Ultra micro SD XC class 10 card. I read that if I format it from exFat to Fat32 it should solve the problem. If I do that will it only give me 32 GB of usable storage? Can it corrupt the card? What can I do to make my 64 gb work in CWM?
Format it as FAT32 with Ease US... The downside is not being able to store 4+ GB files...
