I just picked up a 64bg microsd with the sdcard adapter. Now when i have the keyboard docked and i use the card/adapter together my tf300t sees it no problem and asks me to mount it. However when i just use the microsd card alone(which was my intention all along of course!!!!) it looks like it starts to run the media mounting but never does anything. At first i had the card formatted to NTFS then i formatted it to exFAT and it doesn't make a difference. I am running 4.2.1 JB for what it's worth. I didnt see any current threads about this that was recent.
Thanks for any help.

ok after doing some troubleshooting i think its this Micro sd card apparently in conjunction with my transformer. i took my samsung 16 gig microsd outta my android phone and what do you know my tablet recognized it right away and i had the option to mount it. What bugs me is with the 64gb microsd in the tablet as soon as i plug it in it says "preparing external storage" then just goes away. I wonder if i did a factory restore (back to 4.1) even though i dont want to if that would fix it.
How annoying.
I think this tablet doesn't support 64GB cards without a custom kernel...

Tell me about it. Strange thing is I have seen someone else posted here that their TF300T works with a 64gb MicroSD card so that just irks me. I have gone as far as to partition it, format into every file system I can save for Mac which wont make a difference as well.
F it all. I got my coworker to pay me the amount I paid from Ebay. Problem solved. Guess I will get a 32gb.
Same issue for me until I ran a custom kernel. I use a Sandisk Ultra 64 GB microSDXC Class10. Works great for me!
Until i can unlock my damn tablet im stuck with stock. Its very frustrating but im not alone at all at least.

What if you format the card in the Transformer?

Dont have it anymore but it wasnt possible because the transformer didnt mount it or give me the option to. I went one better and formatted in my epic 4g, didnt matter. Partitioned it into 2 32gb partitions, i tried everything. I bought a 32gb and it works fine.

I tried formatting mine from the dock even, which did see the card. But once I put it back in the tablet proper no go. I unlocked mine as I wanted this card to work as well as tethering with my Verizon phone using ad-hoc mode.Everything works well now for me,just waiting on a custom rom for the newest ASUS update to 4.2.1!
I got a 32GB Sandisk class 10 for $20 from BestBuy.
Tonight I am going to try using it in the tablet and SD slot. My whole purpose is to make it work as MicroSD card so I can use it even when the tablet isn't docked.
I purposely stayed away from 64GB as some say it doesn't run properly and I don't want to unlock, root or install custom kernal at the moment.
I tried quick formatting it in win 7 and it didn't happen, so I am regular formatting in NTFS, that probably won't work so I will reformat in exFAT and see if that works, hopefully. If both don't work than I will have to root the device and install something like paragon exFAT app.
The whole purpose is to NOT have a 4GB file size limit for files.
lets see what happens.

You should be able to format it however you want. You should have no issues with the 32gb. I didnt after all the trouble with the 64gb but as they say YMMV.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
I don't know why but for some reason it wasn't getting formatted to NTFS, I didn't bother because it's working in exFAT format.
Just to confirm.
My 32GB SanDisk Class 10 is working fine in the MicroSD slot. I formatted it to exFAT and copied a 8GB MKV and it played fine on MX player.
When I put it in the SD card slot on my laptop running Win 8 using the provided MicroSd to SD converter, it wasn't getting recognized until I ran chkdsk and since than it's been working fine.
I will try testing it in the TF300 SD card later today.
My whole purpose was not to root etc the device as I don't have the time right now to do that, if a device is rooted, there are apps on the market that can mount a NTFS card as well.
I've attached the screenshot for benchmark.

We all know the popular SDCard (MicroSD) issues regarding android...
Yes, I know, this is only my 3rd post... I'm not a noob, I've been reading a lot from XDA since its early beginning... I was a symbian developer during its glory days... I do a lot of android but I am not into developing (yet) for it...
Back to SDCards... I've read a lot of post regarding sdcard problems...
My only concern is that the SDCard automatically mounts itself to read only after some read and write operations... I thought this was normal... But after some research, I found out that it was a sign of corruption... The gradual increase of files in LOST.DIR indicates a serious problem...
To give a more concrete evidence regarding this theory, I started testing with 2 Galaxy SL devices, 2 usb cables and 3 SDCards of different class and capacity... I use 2 Galaxy SL's to identify if my unit has a bad card reader...
These are the test that I've managed to perform:
1. Copy Music Tracks to device via Mass Storage
2. Copy files from Internal SD to External SD via phone
3. Download a large file using the phone and save the file to External SD
4. Delete a large group of files in External SD using phone
The Cards that are use are:
1. SD A (class 2)(4 GB)
2. SD B (class 6)(16 GB)
3. SD C (class 10)(16 GB)
These are the Results:
1. Using Mass Storage to copy Music Tracks to SDCard prove to be successfull (All SD's)
2. Copy files from Internal SD to External... The operation finished but after the operation, the sdcard was mounted as read only (SD B and SD A)
3. Downloading a file to SDCard... There are some instances that the download will fail because the SDCard was mounted as Read Only during the progress of downloading (All SD's)
4. There are some instances that Deletion of file suddenly stops... The reason, the SDCard was mounted Read only...
5. Every Instance of an error, a file is created at LOST.DIR (After the filesystem check at boot)
I check all SDCards to look into its integrity (via CHKDSK /R)... All SDCard diagnostic tools found no problem regarding the Cards... I put the same ROM on the phones (Rooted and Deodexed Stock KPQ) and both phones share the same results above... Recently, this problems persist in all the ROM's that I have tried (CM, MIUI, Stock) And all kernels (UC, Vurrut)... I think finding for a solution for our device first would help us create a solution for others too...
Anyone of you having similar issues...? Your solution and comments is highly appreciated... Many people are having these problems... Making data reliability on the SDCards quite frustating...
Is there a way to "permanently" mount SDCard as RW to prevent it from mounting as Read Only... I really hope that there is a solution to this problem...
Hi, I know it's been a moment but I'll share what I've experienced, my sdcard was supposed to be a 32GB one but in reality it was a 4GB one, you can't see it on windows through, lot of files were appearing in that lost.folder once I exceed 4GB and all my MP3 were getting mixed up, corrupted.
The funny part of this is that all steps trying to verify that sdcard (chkdsk) were showing no problem at all, now I bought a real 32GB from Samsung and it works fine
Your sdcard should be corrupted or just a fake one.
From my side I ain't getting any problem concerning the fact that my sdcard mounts itself as R/O

i dont know i have a class6 16-gig sd card and now i have the phone for a motherboard fix. they said that my 16 gig sd card were one of the culprits of the motherboard and usb storage (internal memory) excommunication of my galaxy sl. they prefer that i should use a 4 gig or lower sd card to lessen chances of this to happen again.
that's very strange... how can a sdcard "destroy" the phones motherboard...?

How shall that work? The only thing I could think of is that a device can not handle SDHC, SDXC cards and thus throws a error like "card corrupted", "no sd card", "card not compatible" but break the motherboard?
P.S. Why don't you insert the banner as to your signature in the user cp? Would prevent others to "quote" it.
The interesting thing is that I never had any problems with my cards, neither with my old 4GB class 4-6 or the new 16GB class 10. Also with the situations you mentioned. But now I know a bit better for what this strange LOST.DIR filder is... For me it's empty all the time.

Would you suggest that the phone is the one with problems..? Or maybe the possibility that both of my cards are bad...
Btw.. Can you change the mount of your sdcard using root explorer (r/w and r/o)..?
After formatting my card, the button to mount the sd to read only is gone, but after some time it returns.. Allowing you to mount the sd to r/w or r/o... I think that contributes to my problem

Samsung Galaxy SL SD card issues
I'm having the same problem. At first I thought it was the native music player because the problem would happen a few minutes after I'd pause music. The phone would restart on it's own, wipe the files on the SD card then restart. I downloaded another music player to try to correct the problem. It worked for a few days then it happened again. It wiped all the files on the SD card. This time it seemed to be worse. After a few minutes it restarted again, and this time wiped all the programs that were saved on the SD card, and reformatted the phone completely (including language and account settings). I have installed the latest firmware, and tried using the phone without a SIM card and it still happens. I basically have an unusable phone. Please help. I haven't tried replacing the SD card but I'm having doubts whether it's because of the SD card why the problem is happening. I used to own a Samsung Galaxy S and I used that card on that phone, and it worked fine. If I buy a new SD card, how would I know what kind to get and are there any other fixes to this issue? Please help!
Ok, i dont know if this has been posted before but this is my BIG problem. When ever I plug in a 16gb sandisk memory card to my galaxy note 10.1 n8000 it works seamlessly without any problems it shows how much space i have and other options like unmount and the like.
BUT, when I plug in my 64gb sandisk microsdXC it doesn't even mount and the only option i see is mount sd card and when i press on that it shows that sd card can be removed.
I want to know why it is like this. I want to use my 64gb on this and I have already got a replacement for the memory card and i also tried reformatting the cards with exFAT and Fat32. I am at a loss and I don't know where I can find the info to get this fixed. I am begging for anybody to help me with the steps to get this fixed
This is how it looks with the 16gb memory card

This is kinda strange, because i had the same problem with the same card, but found out of the box its exFAT, reformatted to FAT32, now works flawlessly...depending on firmware (i'm on 4.0.4 XXALI3, no exFAT support) even exFAT is said to work finally, don't remember which one actually. Thanx you SAMSUNG, finally acknowledged those cards come with exFAT out of the box...i would try to reformat and make sure it's really FAT32, as not all windows machines seem to produce FAT32 out of the box (I'm on MAC). hope this helps...
my baseband version is N8000UBLG5 4.0.4
I have tried to reformat on my windows 7 alienware laptop. It is really weird. I was worried because I thought that it might be a hardware problem but when i used the 16gb memory card it worked flawlessly. I only used the format option that comes with windows. Could this be a problem with the software? I just hope that this is not a problem with the hardware. I hope someone could shed some light on this for me.
You can't format a 64gb sd card fat32 using window natively, you need another program such as Easius partition manager to do it. This might be your problem....

Still doesn't work
Ok, I tried using the formating program and still same thing. It wasn't able to fix it. The only option that shows in the storage part is "mount sd card". And still when I click on that, it shows a notification that says that sd card is safe to remove. Im really at a loss here. I guess that because I can use the 16gb memory card, its probably not a hardware problem right? I have the n8000 3g+ wifi model. I don't know what region it is but I bought it at amazon.com
Is the sd card recognised in windows? Can you open up and copy files to/from it?
If you have another phone you could try to format it in that BUT be careful as it can screw them up...

yes It is recognized in windows and yes I can copy files on it. I actually tried it on my galaxy s3 phone and it was recognized. That is why im really wondering why this won't work on the n8000...I am hoping to find someone who could fix it, I would gladly pay for the fix if it would be repaired.

you could try to format in the S3...mine isn't' available right now,so I can't try myself...not sure if S3 does exFAT though....
If you have access to a Digital Camera and a Micro SD to SD Adapter you could insert the micro sd card in the adapter and then insert both into a Digital Camera and reformat using the cameras format instructions.
Worked for me in the past.
Ok, so here is another problem I have. Soo sorry if I have tons of questions.
Anyway, I have the Android 4.0.4 baseband version N8000UBLG5 on my n8000 galaxy note 10.1
I was looking at samfirware if they have a stock because I am thinking of reflashing the firmware because it might be the reason why my 64gb memory card can't be read.
And to my surprise, I wasn't able to find a stock firmware.
Q1: Am I right to think that this may be a reason why I am having problems reading the 64gb memory card and no problem reading the 16gb ones?
Q2: How do i find the right firmware to flash for my n8000?
Q3: Is there a step by step guide how to do this? ( I am very used to using odin on the S3, but on the note is a wholel different world)
Thank you guys:good:
You will probably find that formatting the sd card FAT32 will allow the 64gb card to be read... Unfortunately there are a few places where the update to ICS hasn't hit as yet that allows the note 10.1 to use exFAT straight out of the box...
You will need to use a 3rd party app like easius partition manager to format to FAT32 as windows doesn't give this option...
Reverting back to stock firmware will not help you any to use the 64gb sd card...

The thing is, I am in the US, I bought it in amazon because I wanted the wifi and 3g model. How do I know which firmwares i can flash this with? And is it possible to flash this with another region?
AFAIK if it's branded N8000, it's an N8000. As long as it isn't N8000T or some other. Based on that you can flash any country's firmware for the N8000.
Germany is a popular choice since they seem to get updates pushed sooner, I think.
You can use the Trinidad and Tobago firmware (TTT), that's where I'm from.
Samsung doesn't exist on a specific carrier here and is not sold by any authorized dealer or company.
We get our tablets from the North American market as well.
Be warned (?) that the latest firmware here is ICS not JB.
Also, have you tried upgrading your firmware via Kies?

Yes I have and it says that it is the latest firmware. We'll the main reason why i am trying to flash this firmware on my n8000 is because I am having a number of problems:
1) the memory card problem. I can't rule out the reason why it just wont work on a 64gb sandisk microsd XC. I have actually had three replacements and still it does the same thing. And it works fine on my 16gb.
2) The Kno app doesn't work along with a number of other apps( Amazon app doesn't work, I dont have the learning hub, )
3) I want Jellybean ( this is the least of my concerns but who wouldn't want jb, I have jb on my s3 and it is great.)
4) I really want to rule out that the problem with my memory card is a software problem and not a hardware problem because if it is a hardware problem i have, I guess I have to send this thing back to amazon.
One interesting thing i found is this: http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/galaxy-note/10-1/GT-N8000EAABTU-spec
it says that the memory can be expanded only up to 32gb for the n8000. Maybe that is the reason why? its hardware can only ready up to 32gb. Can anybody verify this?
You could try formatting the card with your phone or a camera.
I highly doubt that you have a hardware problem.
The Note officially supports 64 GB by specification at least.
Installing JellyBean ROM will allow you to format and read the card in native exFAT format, which could help.
On another note (no pun intended lol) Easeus has a button to commit, it doesn't format until you hit "apply changes" or something.

Been using my 64gb card since I got my note 10.1... Had to upgrade to the latest ICS ota to get exFAT support but formatting FAT32 allowed use of the 64gb card from the start... Australian Samsung site also says up to 32gb sd card - they lied....

64GB will work with the 10.1 if it is formatted as FAT32. I used my Macbook to format as FAT32 and the card was then recognised.

He tried that, 3rd post.

You could try formatting the card with your phone or a camera.
I highly doubt that you have a hardware problem.
The Note officially supports 64 GB by specification at least.
Installing JellyBean ROM will allow you to format and read the card in native exFAT format, which could help.
On another note (no pun intended lol) Easeus has a button to commit, it doesn't format until you hit "apply changes" or something.

Thank you soo much, how stupid of me to not notice that. I tried your "other note" and it worked this morning. Best morning ever!
Do not trust the Samsung website... they have no idea what they are selling.

According to them it has only 1 Gb of ram... f**king amateurs :banghead:

No problem glad I could help.
And don't feel too bad, I remember when I used Easeus the first time, I didn't notice that you had to hit apply either.
Hi
No real issues with recovery recently (either CWM or TWRP). I ended up on latest version of TWRP and was receiving errors that I couldn't mount or back up to the external sd card. This is a 64GB sandisk formatted as FAT32 (via gparted).
Ran a check on the card and there's no errors.
tried CWM and similarly can't mount the card.
the card contents are completely mountable when I boot into the full system, or similarly when I connect to a laptop.
any suggestions ... I want my external backups back!

I have commented on and read similar threads. The problem is the size. I have seen posts using exFat and FAT32 with no good results. Just use a smaller SD card for TWRP.
I read somewhere that there was supposedly a TWRP version floating around that could read exFat on 64GB but have never seen it.
I've just tried a 16GB from my phone with FAT32. Recognised immediately. I think the issue is the physical card size (64GB) or actual SD card hardware with twrp/cwm.

If you run dmesg in adb shell, do you get any interesting lines related to the sd card?
If it's a UHS-1 type card it won't work unless it's the 16Gb, I don't know why but I have to use a standard class 4 to be able to read a card in TWRP. I have a 16Gb UHS-1 and two 32Gb UHS-1 and the 16G will work but neither of the 32Gb ones work. Also the 32Gb ones won't work with Data2SD either but the 16Gb one will. I don't have a 64Gb to test but it might be the same thing.

I have this card as well and works fine with my Infinity.
[Q] TIBU - "Batch backup interrupted: insufficient free storage space" - Any Ideas?
Have a problem with TIBU Pro on my Samsung SGH i-727 (S2-Skryocket). If you find a fix, let me know. I can back up some apps and then finish off others manually but I can't seem to complete a full batch system & apps backup in TIBU Pro now without a ""batch backup interrupted: Insufficient free storage space" error. And I have 40GB+ free on a 64 GB card I just added. (Formatted to FAT32 with GPARTED on my Ubuntu 13.04 box.) I'm going to try and see if a new SD card will work. Will report on that a bit later but I was using this same card for batch backups with TIBU for a few weeks before the error appeared so I'm not suspecting the card right now.
Running CM10.1 nightlies with TWRP 2.6. Full root and updated to latest nightly version yesterday. Wiped System Cache and Dalvik cache. Fixed Permissions. Still get "insufficient free storage space error". Seems to be a problem that few have figured out. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling TIBU Pro. No dice. TIBU does seem to work though manually. Weird... Sent message to TIBU Pro support. Great program... Not so great at support. Their e-mail support is rarely answered and they don't even have a user forum on their website.
HW: SGH-I727, TWRP 2.6, CM10.1 - 07/27/2013 CM 10.1 Nightly, TIBU 6.0.5.1, 64GB Patriot SD - Class 10 card (FAT32)
Think I found my problem - SD Card Problem
Per recommendation on IRC, tried a spare external SD card.
And - Drum Roll.... Success!!! I guess good news and bad news.
Kind of a bummer though. Seems like my relatively new SD card I bought for $59 at Fry's is hosed somehow - at least for the SGH-I727.
Card that worked on TIBU backup is an older Class 10 32GB PNY. Full batch backup took a while (normal) but completed in TIBU Pro without error.
Newer card is a 64gb Patriot Class 10.
Both are formatted with FAT32. Backing up the 64GB to hard disk right now. No error on the PC so I think the card is probably OK but somehow not quite right for the SGH-I727.
Going to try and format it in another system using GPARTED. (I have read numerous posts about not formatting 64GB in Windows 7 / 8). I presume I am going to find this is just a bad card for this particular SGH-I727 hardware.
I know FAT32 is probably the best idea for universal compatibility and if I don't intend to use large files on the drive.
Anyone with a good recommendation on compatible or best brand of 64gb MicroSD card they are successfully using with their SGH-I727 I would be interested in hearing their feedback.

Have you tried the lucky patcher settings-troubleshooting option? That's what I use every time I get insufficient memory error....

No. I'm pretty sure it's got to be related to the card now as the 32GB card works fine for backups with TIBU. Kind of confused why the 64GB card was working before and just up and quit. But at least I think I figured it out.
Also seems that the recommendation is for 32K sector size on the SD Card. So I'm going to reformat that card with GPARTED in Ubuntu 13.04. The default was 512 byte sector size in GPARTED. So I guess I need to do 32K sectors and try that with this card according to the comments I see in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2041679
I guess the small sector size could be a problem with my device.

64GB SD Card Seems the Culprit
Couldn't find 32K sector size in GPARTED so used Mini-Tool Partition Wizard (Free Home Edition).
Formatted fine and copied all my files fine back from my PC to the Micro-SD card.
But I still get the "insufficient storage space" available error on the 64GB versus the 32 GB card when doing TIBU Pro backups. So 64GB card is problematic but the 32 GB card is fine on the same ROM. (Running CM 10.1 Nightly - last updated 7/27/2013).
Everything else seems to run fine though. Can run video, music, books, no problem off the card.
Thinking I'll just go back to the 32 GB card and get rid of the bloat. Or maybe just use the 32GB card for backups. Again, the 64gb card appears to be functioning in every other context other than TIBU backups on the SGH-i727.
This 64GB card is quite a bit of hassle on the Skyrocket IMHO. Guess I'll save this for the S4 when I can upgrade later this year.
Any other ideas? Anybody think I should try Ext2, Ext3, Ext4 on this SD card? I have enough linux desktops and servers laying around that this drive format / file system wouldn't be a big problem for me. Plus, I presume the SD card would still mount in Windows as a media device that could be read and written to if I use the USB cable. But I don't want to go down that road if it is just a waste of time.
Anybody with some experience getting a 64gb SD card to work on the SGH-I727? Should I get a different brand MicroSD Card or something? (Using Class 10 Patriot 64GB SD card that seems fine on the PC but is a problem doing backups with TIBU.)

Evidence of running 64GB on SGH-I727
Just in case you don't think you can run 64gb on SGH-I727 - see attached screenshots.

My next try will be backing up with TIBU Pro to the internal SD card memory. I have 9GB or so available on the internal SDCard space it looks like.
I haven't found anything wrong with the 64GB card on the SGH-I727 other than the fact that the TIBU Pro batch backup to the card dies with the "insufficient storage" message even though it obviously has way more than sufficient space.
