Would this increase my memory? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I ordered this 128GB SDXC card http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=300850831173 ? Also I purchased this micro SD to SD converter ribbon http://dx.com/p/sd-to-microsd-transflash-card-converter-module-27001
If this works i already have 32GB for internal memory so ill have almost 160GB for my phone! I already have an EZO 4200mAh extended battery with a big back cover for my phone. IM just wondering if i can get this adapter to fit under the extended battery back cover with the battery in there?? I think it might just fit?? Any insight or suggestions is really appreciated!!

That's pretty cool! It's just a $140 gamble but if it works it would be awesome. Keep is posted if you do it.

Ya cause thats the biggest mirco sd made. Doesn't mean that that the kernel its self is limited to reading only 64gb cards.

It works!! 152GB of memory now! And it fits under my extended battery case!

Just wanted to let everyone know I got this formatted right and its working great. I definitely would suggest this to anyone who needs lots of space! When I get time I'm gonna take a picture of my phone with it in there. It fits just fine with my ezo 4200mah nfc extended battery. So if you have the extended battery case it fits really good, you would have no idea the SD converter is under back cover!
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

That's pretty awesome. Now you have a ridiculous amount of both battery and storage.

I wish 256gig sdcards didn't cost as much as a new phone off contract.
I was getting ready to buy a new device, but already have a couple carrier contracts. Definitely don't need another monthly payment.
Now i'm stuck trying to justify the purchase of a new device against being able to have a quarter terabyte of local storage in one of my current ones...

The SD card doesn't work, it did for awhile but stopped. That's what I said, the SD card slot isn't functional. I just use internal storage. I was just wondering if anyone would even consider buying it with an SD card slot that doesn't work.
Well i know i dont have the money to offor but if your willing to trade for my sensation 4g 9.5/10 condition and add 55dollars or if you have adiquate accessories to add with it we might be able to do a even trade because mine comes with a trident all the stuff that was in box and s type tpu and a seidio case with holster and 1 anker extended 1900 mah with wall charger.
Edit: just realized the sd card didn't work I would definalty request 90 dollars added or straight trade for my phone with out the accesories.

I want to get a new phone, I curently have Inspire.

Hello dudes, I wanna say that I LOVE my phone, but in the same I think it's time for an upgrade so I am "hunting" for a new phone, and I have no clue what to get! I want an upgraded inspire lol...hehe Inspire 2nd gen but...it is not possible. So I am asking u guys: What should I get!? I am am outside of US, so I cannot get a contract with any carrier, that why I have to use ebay...but like I said...dno what to get!!! Any ideas!!?!?!?!
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda app-developers app
There is a thread for this very issue. My question would be what about the Inspire do you think needs to upgraded? Faster processor, bigger screen, better camera?
For my next device, I want a faster processor, more ram, more storage, a front facing camera and a bigger screen without giving up anything that the Inspire provides. I haven't found it yet. I like the sexy heavy duty construction, this phone makes Samsungs feel like toys. The HOX has a higher end feel than the Sammies, but has no sd slot. Not interested in iOS or Windows. I have high hopes for the next round of Nexus devices but have to wait until there is more than just rumor to know if that's where I go next.
It's going to be about what you need, want and can afford. Without know more about that, I cannot make a recommendation.
Now I'm in a Pickle

I honestly don't see why everyone has such a problem with no SD card slot on phones. You really need to carry so much info with you in your pocket?
That's what I have a computer for. And dropbox/Google drive.
I wish more phone makers would move away from slots and removable batteries. The phones would be more sleek and have more room for other features

I agree 100%.
I was immediately interested in this phone until I saw these two items.
I could probably live with the limited storage, but I will NEVER buy a phone with a non-removeable battery.

I can understand that, but I've actually already filled up my 32gb gs3. Even still 16gb isn't bad and I personally don't care too much about a non removable battery. However, the dna's battery sounds relatively small for the high spec guts it has plus that 1080 lcd.
That's also not to mention how bleak the prospect of development seems. Not to bash it, but the gs3 still has some pros

I'm already suffering the issues of low memory with my 16GB of space. Downloaded Need for Speed Most Wanted and that took a large chunk of space. already have other games that are taking up 7GB of space alone. then god forbid if i want to download some lossless songs from Spotify. thats almost 400MB an album. I can't put that on the SD card, unless i'm missing something in the way spotify saves music.
So Yes. I do need to carry that much info on my phone.

In a word, yes. All of my music is FLAC encoded; my 32GB S3 is totally full, and the 32GB MicroSD I have in it has about 3GB left, and that's just from about 50-100 albums. Honestly, I'd love a 128GB MicroSD right now... plus where I am 3G is unusable (40KB/s down D: ) and thus streaming makes absolutely no sense for me. No SD card slot makes any phone a no-buy for me.

Its not 16gb its really
11gb useable storage.
I just cant live with that.
GOOGLE and LG did the same thing with the Nexus 4
Conspiracy time: why put so little storage?
Maybe to force people to use PAY cloud based storage like Drive and backup assistant.
Dont forget the data charges store and access those GB of cloud data.
Games nowdays can be over a gig and I have 6gb+ of music. Not everyone wants to use the cloud to stream music and movies. Not only does it kill your battery but if you are in a bad area for signal you are SOTL. I also always have some movies on my phone for my 3 year old when we go out to dinner it keeps her calm. I have a 32gb gs3 and a 64gb card I don't have to worry about space on my phone.

exactly what i was thinking!
I should have added this: I wish phone makers would move away from SD card slots, however, give higher internal storage options.
Like I said before, I personally have no use for large storage space because I have my laptop for that. Plus my car has a built in hard drive for music and that's really the only time I listen to music. I can see how other users fill up fast, though. 128GB GS4, anyone? Lol

Kickstarter backed microSD card reader!

Just received my kickstarter backed project, microSD Card reader. Project cost me about $12
Www.meenova.com
This adapter allows you to plug an sdcard into your phone microSD port and transfer/read files.
I have to say this thing came out really nice, the blue light was a nice touch. So far its worked on everything I've plugged it into (galaxy nexus, nexus 7, Gs4, RAZR M)
Package contained:
MicroSD to microUSB reader
MicroUSB to USB adapter for PC
Keychain clip
Here are some pictures for you guys

Nice one, cheers for posting this, ordered one mainly to use with nexus 7 but this could be great at transfering stuff quickly to my S4 and the advantage of being small and unobtrusive like an otg cable and flash drive.
This could really change my mind about getting the upcoming nexus 5.Although i think they're great phones I thought i'd never get one because of the poor storage and no sd slot but as the extra space i need would be for music files i would only need to plug it in when listening. rest of the time it would be on my keys.
My only concern is how secure and safe from knocks the sd card is when inside the reader and inside my pocket. I'm pretty forceful when dry humping bins and bollards when waitnig for buses. Can anyone comment on this? (The sd card safety not my dry humping?)

That's like buying a brand new sports car with a turbo boost leak and then being like "oh well". My 2.3 GB nandroid backups take about 13 mins. So TWRP is writing much slower.
I suggest checking my thread on the SD card you may need to reformat it and clean it up. Also try ROM toolbox pro to turn the write speed up. I write at 55 MB a sec
