NTFS File System MicroSD Card 64GB U65GT - Android General

Is there any sure fire way to get this tablet to recognize NTFS or exFAT? I've tried the handful of apps out there e.g. NTFS Mounter/Paragon, etc. However they don't even recognize my SD card, saying something along the lines of "please insert NTFS media". This is honestly an amazing tablet for the price, but this downside is really kicking me in the butt right now.

I know it has trouble even with 32g samsung cards, but I too would dearly love to get a 64 gig working, on one site they said up to 64gig tf card (which google says is exactly the same as micro sd) every other site says 32 gig, surely if 64 works you can go to 4 terabytes or what ever fat32 can handle
I heard you needed to delete the exfat partition with some heavy duty software ... also that when google started pushing the cloud service they started making the cards smaller, which is kinda evil

microSDHC card reading problems

Hey guys!
Last friday, I finally got my Toshiba TG01, which came with a 8GB Class 4 microSDHC card.
I didn't put it in my phone, since there's a virus on some of these cards!
Now I want to format the card with my Windows XP computer, but when I try to access it with a SD card adapter, it freezes my Explorer...
It gets stuck until I put the card out of it!
I also tried a USB adapter on my Vista PC and it only tells me this:
"Please insert a disk into Removable Disk ( H: )."
Same thing on the XP PC.
Can anyone help me?
sounds like a defect microSD card
Try disabling the autostart feature and then use the Panasonic SD formatting software.
yip know the feeling, the cheap card that came with my HD does the same, although it still works perfectly with my device and is accessable using a/sync.
Going to buy a good make class 6
well id put it in the phone then put the phone into the pc and make it a usb mass storage device
then if it can be seen then awesome format it
the card wont have any affect of the phone its it plugged into the pc as a mass storage device as the phone cant se it
Try reformatting the card, to fat32 using hp's low level format tool it worked for me.
my card is fat32, pc using xp pro still wont recognise it using card reader, although all is fine in disk drive and active sync......no real biggy....
it may be a defective reader
Hi all, just wanted to add something to this, as I have a TG01, and have had a few issues with memory cards with it. This is something I poseted on http://www.modaco.com/content/toshi...5/strange-files-appearing-on-my-storage-card/
"Hi folks, just thought I would update you with a few issues I'v had re the memory cards. I've used the ones supplied by Toshiba, (not the best) but also a Sandisk 16GB and 8GB, and both suffered corruption issues. It took about a hour to copy most of the files over to my laptop, and to do that, I had to put the mem card in my Touch Pro! I'm not sure what this means, as some people have said they have had no issues. It would be interesting to see what proportion of us actually suffer from memory card corruption using other brands! Looks like I may have to carry a backup of my mem card for a while!!... "
I'm not the only the only one with issues, as a few others on that forum have had them too. Wish i knew what was causing it. May have to go back to the old reliable Touch Pro untill we get the promised upgrades?..
Lets hope not.........
nope its not the reader, bought a new one last week as i thought it may have been that. Im sures its something to do with micro sdhc cards and just being made baldy.... cheap is nto always good huh...............
mm thought id add a poll to the thread, would be interesting to see whats the worst offender.......
Let me know if your brands not there, ill add it
Hi, have you already tried this??

Sandisk 64gb Microsdxc Card

I was given one of these cards as a gift and the first one shipped failed to format but the replacement came in today and works great in my Galaxy Tab 7 Plus. Just thought someone may want to know. The formatted storage space is 59.4gb.
ZOMG. 64gb works with the GTab+? that's legit! how much did you pay for it?

It was a gift but Amazon had it for $149.00 at the time.
You are so lucky! If it were about 75 bucks I would actually consider getting of of these...
I'm planning to buy this card,so i want to know its actually transfer speed. Can you test it on PC using the software Atto Disk Benchmark ?
Since they started doing this "internal" and "external" memory card with our devices, I'm not too worried about swapping the sd card in and out anymore as it doesn't affect the way the device works as much as it used to.
I have a 32GB card each for my tablet and phone that pretty much stay there all the time. What i did instead for extra capacity was collect all the old 16GB cards and store them in this sd-card holder that fits perfectly in this black aluminum business card holder. I bought the sd-card organizer and business card holder from ebay.
That's 11 (one in the microSD to SD adapter) 16GB cards for 176GB total. I mainly use this system to backup and transfer pictures from my bigger SD cards when I'm out shooting photos (using the 30-Pin to SD adapter).

What did you use to format the card? i put this in my G Tab+ and when i click mount sd, it gives me an error icon in the notification area. when i tap that and click format, it says it is blank or has an unsupported file system. Any help would be appreciated
*Edit* - I've been having trouble finding a utility I trust to format the card as FAT32. On my windows 7 64 bit machine, the native right click format menu doesnt even give me the option of doing FAT32, just exFAT or NTFS (both useless for the application I need). Even the official SD Formatter tool didnt give any choice in the filesystem to format to.
After seeing this article, I decided as a last ditch effort to use my Vibrant to see if i could get it to format as FAT32 since the article mentioned it working in the Galaxy S. This worked and i now have 59.4GB free to exploit on my G Tab+ (However, I did have to use the file write permissions fix to get things to copy between internal and external memory within Astro). Just wanted to post for others that were having trouble finding a way to format this card as FAT32. My assumption is any of those confirmed devices will format it.

SanDisk Mobile Ultra 64GB microSDXC works in our Skys

Yeah, I was pretty certain it would work. It has worked on every Samsung Galaxy ever made so far. I think BestBuy had it for $70 one time. Still waiting for that deal to come around again. It might take a while...
But then again, 128GB might be better. It would be nice to carry every episode of all my favorite rewatchable TV Shows and all the TV Shows and Movies I plan on watching some day. Might take 2TB. Someday...
Wow crazy space. Let's hope they make batteries in the future to allow us to make use of all this video space
I put the same one in mine, when I saw that deal. Works fine. However as a word of advice from wasting time..........
Many state to use the sdcard.org's formatter which then formats it correctly and then put your data on it and then put it on your phone. However that doesnt work. sdcard.org formats the card as exFat and the phone cant recognize that. Let the phone format it which it will do as Fat32. Then it works fine.
Many threads state to use the sdcard.org formatter to achieve the best speed, thats the reason why I did it. So despite their recommendations, dont bother, it wont work.
On a side note of reivewing it. This 64gb card replaced my Samsung 32gb Class10 card. I have to say to say this 64gb card is REALLY slow when transferring data. It took a good 1hr to transfer 32gb of data on this card. The fatest I got was around 4-6MB/sec. The Samsung 32GB card (being it was class10) was at least twice as fast. But I cant complain too much, I mean its twice the space. Im sure a Class10 version of this 64gb card will cost over $200.

Awesome good to hear, didn't think I would hit 32GB but I'm fast approaching, time to upgrade I think.
Like dixit said.... It's always best to format in the device you're going to use it in!

I'm affraid I will have to disagree with you on this. I purchased the card .. it was already formatted with exFAT. When inserted into phone, does not recognize it installed at all .. will not format, will not mount .. nothing.
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 .. does not format FAT32 unless you're doing it be command line .. however, here is the issue with that .. standard command: format ?: /FS=FAT32 for the 64GB card took 2 hours to format, only to find that it errors out right at the end stating it is not compatible and over 32GB .. waste of time.
Hense .. this is why I attached a link to a command line program called FAT32format .. I executed this program from command prompt .. and poof, 64GB formatted FAT32 .. plugged into phone .. phone recognized the card, no problems at all .. I did however reformat the card via the phone afterwards.
So, for the initial installation (out of box) our phone WILL NOT see it until it has been formatted FAT32
Well mine had no problems reformatting on the phone itself. When I first put it in after the sdcard.org format it was exFat. Phone as you stated didn't recognize it. Then I just on the phone told it to reformat it. It did it just fine as Fat32. But either way like you said as Fat32 it has no problems.
Dixit
The only issue here is that you can't transfer files larger than 4Gb to the card when its FAT32. Something to keep in mind if you have large files.
I bought mine about 6 months ago and haven't hd a problem with it in any android phone and I formatted it in the phone. Now I'm just waiting on this skyrocket hd to come out and I'm selling this phone and buying that one. Has any boy heard any thing about a size bigger than 64gb
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
thanks for the note, it's a great price, but media-scan kills me
I love the space, I don't care about slow speeds because I usually dump data on the card (huge mp3 collection) and keep apps on the internal /sdcard (16GB)
The problem I see with this is that my current 32GB class10 card is being scanned by the phone periodically. This scan takes a LOT of time and 64GB would be even worse
If I find a phone that is equal to or better than Skyrocket + support exFAT I would go for the 64GB card in a heartbeat
Do you know such phone as of today ?

thanks for the tip on FAT32format. my 64GB card showed up yesterday and i was fearing i had wasted money since i couldn't get it formatted to FAT32. i bought it after seeing that YouTube video (we've all probably seen it) to put in my Galaxy S i'm turning into a dedicated PMP. the phone wouldn't format it (would try but it would always say damaged) but this worked like a charm. i'm transferring my music collection as i speak. thanks again for the help!
Browsing this thread and checked out the Best Buy link. Price is $79.99 as I write this.
$71 on Amazon now.
Adorama Camera $59.95 and free shipping if anyone is interested.
^^^^ thanks for the link, i have a few friends looking for this

Just a thought, cuz I haven't noticed anyone say this but from what I've read class 6 and 10 cards are not ideal for mobile phones because they are optimized for faster sequential read/write (ideal and fast for cameras). Class 4 is faster at random read/write than 6 and 10(ideal for phones).
I just purchases a sandisk 32gb class 4 and I've never had it randomly scan and I use it for music, photos, some app data, backups etc.

this is unfortunately somewhat true. Class 6 in the OP should be okay though. I'm currently in an RMA process with Sandisk and in talking to their Technical support they said :
"We need to take the few information from you in order to process the RMA request. There is an ongoing issue is with Sansa Ultra 64 GB SDXC class 10 Cards the one which you have and on Android phones we need to use the Sansa Ultra 64 GB SDXC class 6 in order to make it functional. It depends on your requirement so please let me know so we can proceed with the request."

128GB sd card for dock

Well just ordered this
Lexar Professional 400x 128 GB SDXC
from amazon for less than $140, seems like a good deal, hope it holds up to 1080p movies
I have the same SD card and playing 1080 mkvs on it with Dice and BS Player are no problem at all, love the massive storage space. Just one caveat though, I tried copying the entire card over to a windows 7 machine and the Infinity rebooted, so there's still and issue with large file transfers that I hope JB will take care of. In any case welcome to the max storage club

I sprung for the crunchyroll premium account too and it's nice, but the app sadly doesn't output 1080p streams yet although they keep saying it's in the works.

Was copying from 32GB samsung micro to the Lexar 128GB on the Transformer Infinity (stock) and it rebooted after transferring about 4GB of 15GB of data. Might have something to do with the fact that the Lexar comes formatted exFat and not NTFS. Could be a tablet I/O issue.
I dont have my 2TB portable HHD to test the transferring abilities of the Lexar using a Windows 7 laptop system, but It will be the next thing I test the Lexar with.
(Formatted the Lexar NTFS)
(Will copy a 8-15GB 1080p movie, and see if the Infinity can handle it)
I thought ExFat let you work past the 4GB Total memory card size limitation, but not the >4GB "single file" size limitation, if im right you will only be able to copy a bigger than 4GB file onto an NTFS format disk.
No, exFAT allows file sizes MUCH larger than 4 GB. Theoretically 16 EiB, in practice "only" about 128 PiB since the current implementation only uses a 32 bit FAT which limits the maximum volume size to ~128 PiB.
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT#cite_note-NB_Size_File-0
People have had issues with copying large files to the internal storage as well, so it's most likely a (file system) driver issue. Could be memory leakage or just hardcoded file size limits (wouldn't surprise me...) causing a buffer overflow. An unhandled fault at driver level = reboot/lock up (usually).
I currently have 1 Samsung 32 MicroSD in the tablet and another via an SD-adapter in the dock, both in exFAT so I could use +4gig files.
My Infinity reboots when transferring to either card via Win7 (big files). However, transferring to the internal storage gives no problems (albeit slow). Moving files from internal to either of the cards via Win7 makes it reboot too. So I filled both cards directly instead of leaving them in the Infinity.
I have used exFAT as it was stated here somewhere NTFS could give problems.. Well, exFAT isn't working great, either.. I'm going to try and see what happens in NTFS but I guess it will be the same story..
Anyway, I think it's a firmware/software issue, hopefully Asus fixes it (or JB)

I believe I have my 32GB micro, and 128GB SD cards formatted as NTFS and haven't had this problem since then. Of coarse I flashed a custom ROM to the infinity, which has helped maximize its potential.
It boggles my mind that I paid $650 for a tablet+dock that has so many quirks, and issues. Like light bleed from the side, minimal as it may be.
Although, I was playing dead trigger, and shadowgun last night using a micro HDMI cable hooked up to my 1080p HP monitor, and a USB 360 controller, and I was AMAZED at the quality and frame rate of the tablet...
I'm going to do some tests, with my new laptop and see if I get that random reboot during file transfer (Using a 24GB 1080p movie)
I have ordered also the SD Card... SO mutch cheaper then in Netherlands
Amazon 154 euro. Local store prices between 300 a 350euro.
I have format a other SD card with HFS+ filesystem. Installed Paragon NTF/HFS+ from Google Play.
Mount and go with the flow..
You can copy files lager then 4GB on a HFS+ formatted sd card

HFS+ is the default file system used in OS X, you'd need drivers to get it to work under Windows. Stick with NTFS (or exFAT) if you're primarily a Windows user

How to make microSD card writable for the Shield

If you are technologically adept, feel free to read only the bold.
1. Remove your card from the tablet and plug it into your computer, using any kind of adapter.
2. On a PC, you can find the microSD card by choosing Computer from the Start menu, or by opening Explorer on Windows 8 (and then looking for Computer to the left).
3. Copy all the files and folders you want to save off the SD card. To be safe, you might want to copy everything and run a storage scanner like the free WinDirStat on your folders before you delete everything.
4. Right-click on the microSD card and click Format. Set the Type to NTFS and the allocation size to Default. Click Format again.
5. Pop the microSD card back into your tablet. It should bloody work.

It should bloody work, but for some of us it doesn't! I have a Team 64gb class 10 card, and I simply can't use it on my Shield. The Shield recognizes that there is a card inside, but I can't actually do anything with it. It works fine on my laptop and on my Nokia 520 backup phone. Have tried other formats, FAT32, exFAT, nothing works on the Shield, everything works everywhere else. My other Sandisk 32gb class 10 card works just fine on the Shield.

So let me get this straight, the card is not only not writable, but it's not readable either?
While the size of the card is within the scope of these instructions (I used a 64GB Samsung), the behavior it's been previously exhibiting is not.
Have you successfully used it in other devices? Have you tried different cluster sizes?
The card itself is perfectly fine on other devices. I've used it in my Note 3, Nokia 520, and its recognizable in all formats on my laptop card reader. The Shield is only one with an issue. It sees that there is a card inside, but i can't do anything with it. I've tried FAT32, exFAT, NTFS, nothing works. But like i said, the 32gb card is recognized right away.

The sheild recognized it immediatly but when i tried to download straight to it got an error it wont let me take anything off or add to it and i know its fine cause my pc and note 3 both used it flawlessly i want to root but it seems really tricky my note 3 has been rooted since i got it but dropping 300 on this bad boy im pretty disappointed im having this problem already 156 sorry bro
Try downloading and applying "SDfix" from the Play store. It worked for me
