[Q] Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 MicroSD 64GB?

I know the specifications list it as supporting up to a 32GB MicroSD but is it possible to use a 64GB MicroSD card in it?

I am doing it right now, but from what I've read searching on here it has to be formatted in a different device because for whatever reason the tab 2 won't reformat it on it's own, but once you've got the card formatted to fat32 (you need a special app to do it on windows) you should be good to go in the TAB.

Here is a command prompt formatter that worked for me.
1. Unzip the file to the root of C:\
2. Mount your 64GB card on your PC and take note of the allocated drive letter (e.g. e:\)
3. run command prompt on PC (search for cmd.exe)
4. get to c:\ (I think cd c:\ will do this)
5. type fat32format.exe e:\ and press <return>
(where e:\ is the allocated drive letter from step 2, so if it mounts as f:\ you would type fat32format.exe f:\ instead)
This should then format your card as FAT32 which works fine in my Galaxy SII so there's no reason I can think of why it wouldn't work in the Tab 2 too.
This is all at your own risk of course - I won't be responsible if something goes horribly wrong and you kill your card, PC, Tab or anything else...sorry.

Did anybody have any success with this? I am looking at buying the Tab 2 7.0, but I need a 64GB MicroSD.

Yes, I use a 64GB sandisk card formatted fat32 and the tab uses it no problem.
I think I used Easus Partition Master to format it.

Did you not read my post? I pulled the 64GB that I formatted in my SGP 4.0 (didn't you have one of them too?) and stuck it right into my Tab 2 7" and it works FLAWLESSLY.

Stock JB or KK-Boot kernel support exFAT formatted card.

Does anyone know if the need for the sd card to be formatted as fat32 (or, as the case may be, exfat) is also true of the Note 2? I have both devices (plus a Note 10.1, with which I have no problem using the 64gb card right out of the package). The Note 2 and the tab 2 both have issues trying to read a 64gb card. They recognize the card and its max size, but renames copied files and folders or doesn't copy them at all.
Thanks.

Will a 64GB card work on this tab using cyanogenmod 11? Anyone have success without any sort of problem with files not copying or reading? I am planning on buying this card

Formatted fat32 using , I can't remember now , but it works great.

Will I still get all 64gb of the card when it is formatted fat32? I hear fat32 supports only up to 32gb partitions. I know I will never get the whole 64gb due to file system usage but something like 59 or something gb should be fine

[Q] List of ROMS that support micro sdhc cards?

I'm a regular user of XDA roms for flashing, but I ran into a problem that I think should be included in every rom listing, which is the type of micro SD card supported by that particular rom. I flashed a rom a few months back that, I thought at the time, had made my Sandisk 64gb microsdhc card unuseable. The Samsung Galaxy S3 has native support for these cards and the exFat file system. I ended up recovering my data on a PC, but I sent 2 cards back to Sandisk thinking they were somehow corrupt. I eventually switched to Scott's Roms which recognized the cards just fine. My humble advice is for developers to please state which types of microsd cards are supported so that others avoid this problem thinking that their sdcards are bad. Thanks .

Why not just format it to fat32? That's what I did to mine. Also cwm does not support exfat (I found out the hard way)

This is not a ROM issue this is a Samsung issue. If you search for microsd error or microsd no longer working you will find people having this issue. The consensus I got from researching is that it has to do with how Samsung handles exFAT and that you should go with FAT32 over exFAT. I had a microSD UHS-1 Class 10 card just stop working and didn't work anywhere and I was using CleanROM.

Cards using the exFAT file system cannot be read by open-source ROMs like Cyanogenmod because Microsoft owns the exFAT file system and in order to support it, Microsoft would have to be paid a licensing fee. Touchwiz-based ROMs can read them because the support is baked into Samsung's software.
If you want your card to work with all ROMs, you have to format it with the FAT32 file system. Additionally, not all formatting utilities seem to do it right for SDXC cards. I used the GUIFORMAT program detailed in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773735. Unfortunately this means that you won't be able to store files larger than 4GB on your SD card.

That was my understanding of the Touchwiz roms, but I just installed Galaxy MOD RLS11 and it is giving me that error "SD card safe to remove". I know there are some utilities that will format cards above the 32gb limit, but the 4gb file size is a pain for some of the movies,etc. I get with Adownloader. I have the 32gb S3 and the 64gb Ashcroft which makes me want to never own a Nexus device . No issues on Scott's rom, but it isn't as fast and it doesn't have the 4.2 camera or gallery, which I really like.

Kernel has to support ExFat also so if using stock kernel and modules are still in rom should work.

[Q] which file system for new micro sd card?

So my micro sd card just fried. It was a cheap $30 Wintec 16gb Class 10 that I picked up from Fry's Electronics during the summer of 2012. Over the last 6 months that I had it, I used it as ntfs file format so that I could play .mkv movies >4gb.
I plan on ordering http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Mobil...166&sr=8-4&keywords=sandisk+mobile+ultra+32gb in the 32gb version.
1) Can anyone recommend a better micro sd card?
I will be using my micro sd card to be recording a lot of 1080p sports videos, storing .mkv movies bigger than 4gb, and hold hundreds of mp3's, pictures, and movie clips. Based on my preliminary research on the forums, I would need something with higher random read/write speeds instead of sequential for the thousands of small files to load faster on my phone. Can anyone confirm this?
2) What file format should i be using? Is there a way to combine fat32 and ntfs?
With my old micro sd card, I was using ntfs file format to store my .mkv movies to watch at work, but the card would become corrupt at least once a month, so I would have to plug the card into my desktop and run a chkdsk /f /r command. I assume that over time this killed my micro sd card... the drawback to this was that I had to create my nandroid backups to the internal memory.... I would much rather have it on the external sd card
I would love to format the card in fat32 so that I could put the nandroid backup on the external sd card, but then i would not be able to put movies >4gb on the card.
Someone in another forum suggested that I partition my sd card, one partition in fat32 for nandroid backups, and one in exfat or ntfs for my movies... My question is,
3) how does clockworkmod know which partition to select? Will it be automatic or will I need to point it there?
That's all I have for now. I hope I gave enough details for good answer.

You need to format exFat. That format supports >4gb files and is natively supported on this device.
Some custom roms however do not support exFat, if you install a Rom that doesn't it will just tell you that your storage is removed in the drop down when you boot.
Some recoveries don't support exFat but it's not a huge deal because you can use your internal storage to flash roms and mods
If you want your recovery to use your external as exFat just search these forums for the proper one. I believe the newer twrp recoveries support it

Slightly off topic.... But it would be great if android media players could play 4Gb+ movies stored in multi-part RAR archives. I do that on Windows all the time using VLC and it's very convenient.

So I ended up buying the 64gb Sandisk Ultra Micro SDXC Class 10 UHS-I card, but the ROM and CWM Recovery I am using does not recognize exFat. I put the sd card in my friends stock s3 and her phone recognized the exFat format.
Does anyone know which touchwiz roms will support exFat? I need to have a touchwiz ROM because I convinced all my friends and co workers to get the s3 together and we use S-Beam to bump pictures daily.
I will try to flash TWRP and see how that goes.
Current Rom that does not support exFAT: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...3b0BEdAvvRN9lxKYjeAM7nw&bvm=bv.41524429,d.cGE

I think you are going to be out of luck trying to find a custom rom that supports it and very doubtful that it ever will.

It is not ROM it is ur kernel find one that supports ur filesystem and install it!

Probably you can try paragon's hfs ntfs and exfat system drivers app...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paragon.mounter
But they mentioned it is not compatible with 4.2

I would use Hyperdrive. It's a the best TW Custom ROM and is 4.1.2. So it would work with the driver posted above. Also update your TWRP (GooManager is perfect for this) and you will be all set!
Edit just realized how old this thread is. Why did you guys bump this thread????

Can't copy files to the SD card

I have tried using ES file explorer, the Asus file manager, and FX file explorer. I get a copy failed message every time I try to copy a file to the removable SD card.
Anyone else have this issue?

Have you tried to reformat the card with fat32?

I just did. Seems I'm only having issues with the 32 GB size cards. Acting like they are read only. Can't find such a setting anywhere. Is there another format that should work?

Have you tried with the latest kernel (JB version .25) and what make and model of your sdcard? just wonder if compability issue and are we talking about Micro sdcard or full size sdcard? On the full size there is a little switch on the side to block writting to the card.

I'm only having issues when I'm using the tablet to copy files. I'm on CleanROM Inheritance. I don't recall if I had this issue with the stock rom. Sometime tonight I will make a backup of my current and then flash to stock rom. Since I'm talking about the removable SD card, it could only be the micro SD that is installed in the tablet. There is no switch on that card.

Yes, it replaced what ever kernel you selected during cleanrom installation. Since it stock kernel, you can no longer Overclock.

Is there another kernel that can be the fix and still give us over clock?

Hi.
I'm having a problem with my Samsung Micro SDXC I (Class 10) card. I've been messing abut with it for days now, formatting, re-formatting in exFAT, FAT32, NTFS but the problem persists; whenever I try to copy data across to the card, the first time the card is inserted, it starts to copy, sometimes even up to 1.5Gb of data but often much less, but then gives me a 'Write Error' or 'I/O Error' message & stops working. Sometimes it also deletes other data on the card when the error occurs. then, until I unmount the card again, it barely functions at all!
A big factor in buyinh this tablet, unlocking, then rooting it was so that I'd have an awesome, small, tablet that had loads of storage & could be transported around very easily. If I can't get the cards to work with it, that's a big part of it's usefulness to me down the drain.
I tried to download the kernal that was mentioned above the message of yours that I'm replying to but the file has been moved. Do you still have it?.......or know how I can resolve my problem without it?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

You don't say which rom or firmware you are currently using. Without knowing that I wouldn't go blindly flashing kernels that are nearly a year old
It could be that your card is actually damaged as I can copy files just fine on mine. I'm using a SanDisk Ultra uhs-1.

Hi sbdags,
Roger that
I'm not bad with most things tecchie but whilst I know which ROM I'm using, I'm not sure what the firmware is.
I recently updated to CROMI-X 5.2.2 from an earlier version in the hope that that might include an update or something that would solve my SD card problem.......it didn't
With regard to 'Firmware', I'm not sure where that's listed on the tablet but in the 'About' tab in my settings, it says:
Android Version - 4.2.1
Kernal Version - 3.1.10-g215ae8bf [email protected] # 1
Build Number - TF700 CHROMI-X 5.2.2 - 10.6.1.27.5 WW DEODEX
Pad EC Version - PAD-EC20T-0216
MobileDock Version - DOCK-EC20N-0207
I hope the firmware information you need is in there somewhere?
The card I bought is the latest 64Gb Samsung Micro SDXC Pro UHS-1 (Class 10) with write speeds of 20Mb/s & 70Mb transfer speed. I had read the formums & was torn between this card & the SanDisk 64Gb Ultra Micro SDXC (Class 10), the two-tone red/grey version, presumably like the one you're using but the Samsung was faster & at the time I bought it, the Samsungwas almost £15 cheaper. Since they were both reported to work, I opted for the Samsung card; maybe that was a bad decision?
I've just ordered the SanDisk 64Gb card, in the hope that that one will work because as i said, it really would be a shame if I can't make use of the extended storage that the SD crads give.
Do you use your SanDisk card in Micro SD form in the tablet or SD form in the dock.....or both......& have you got them formatted to exFAT or some other format?
Thanks again for your attention.

Hi sbdags.
I've tried using both the File Explorer that was included with CHROMI-X & another one from the Play Store that I use on my phone called Astro; the same thing happens with both. As I say, the card seemed okay to begin with but all I had put on it was my Nandroid & Titanium backups (approx. 2Gb total with lots of small files included). The problems started when I tried to copy a season of a TV series onto the card to free up space on the internal SD card. It started off okay & I wasn't expecting any problems but then approx 1.5Gb, I got an I/O write error & then all the problems I described in my first post.
As an aside, the card performed best when formatted to FAT32 but according to the SD Card Association, SDXC cards come formatted as exFAT, so that's how it's currently formatted; I thought if that's how it came & it initially worked okay, maybe that would solve the issue. Again, I was wrong!
So, I'll format it back to FAT32 again but as I've already had it in that format, I wouldn't anticipate any change to the card's behaviour.
The 64Gb SanDisk card should be here in a few days, so I'll be able to report on whether that one works or not then.
Did you have to re-format yours when you first got it or are the SD Card Association talking nonsense? Oh, & you didn't say whether you're able to use your cards in both micro form in the pad &/or full-size form in the dock? Also, was the Firmware information you asked for in that mass of stuff I listed. If not, where do I find it, so I know for the next time you ask

I've never tried my card in the dock to be honest. Both my cards; 32GB and 64GB are SanDisk, I am not sure now what they cam in but I am using fat32 as I formatted them myself.
As for the stuff you posted I just wanted to know the rom and bootloader version. So CROMi-X 5.2.2 on 10.6.1.14.10 would have ben enough. Maybe the kernel helps too. In your case you are using the stock kernel. You may get better results on thatv4 kernel?

So, I think I've grasped that the kernel is similar to the BIOS on a PC; is that correct?
When you say that I may get better results using _that's v.4 kernel, what improvements are you thinking I might see?

Not really, the kernel is ... the kernel. The core of the operating system. Under Windows it's ntoskrnl.exe.
You could compare the bootloader with the PC BIOS - its main function (nowadays) is to start the operating system.

Try to reformat the card via your PC, fat32 and try again. If that doesn't work, try to reformat in EXfat

Try everything I have done, no luck. is this mean my SD card is not working or what. I know some people can use up to 128G.
P.S. SD card shows mounted to the device properly and working fine in my other device.

I'm not say that this is going to, or still is an issue, however, in MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE and from what i have read 6-10 months ago or more (maybe they have solved this issue by now i don't know) every time i formated an SD card Via PC it was horrible and the format destroyed the MicroSD card for use with any android device and then even my computer and they where all BRAND NEW. I think it has something to do with the formatting process of the SD cards and the phone because my 32GB cant be recognized anymore by any device but i can format it all day long on my PC and my androids will not see it... I even tried to format it BACK to what android uses to format the cards on ADB and NOTHING ever worked again. MY SUGGESTION IF YOUR USING IT FOR YOUR PHONE DON'T FORMAT YOUR CARD VIA PC. Flash memory is also has a write life. UNLIKE A HDD that you can erase and move files around constantly the more you erase and move files on your SD card the quicker you are going to see the integrity of your card degrade because FLASH Memory can not handle the constant moving and erasing over and over again. so if you want to ave the life of your flash memory and don't want it tos burn out because i guarantee it will, just be mindful of how many times you move and erase. just a tip. if im wrong someone correct me. good luck!

Try to reformat it on the tablet, not the PC. (Settings --> Storage --> Format MicroSD)
