Hi
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000 Tablet. The specs say that the maximum storage is 64GB. But I've inserted a 128GB MicroSD card, that works fine. Does anyone know whether it will accept even higher capacity MicroSD cards ?
Thanks

Hi there!
Is the Xperia Tipo compatible with 64GB Sd Cards?
Officially there will be just Cards up to 32GB supported, but in other devices with the same note 64 GB Cards work.
Has anybody ever tried?
memory card will work and show 64 gigs capacity but your phone may slowdown due to increased time in media scanning.
I bought one of these assuming it would work on my Note 10.1 but it doesn't seem to be working. I get the USB connector connected message, but when I plug in a FAT32 formated SD card nothing happens. It works great on my Tab 2 7.0. As well, an OTG cable with a card reader in it also works on my Tab 2 7.0, but not the Note 10.1. Should these devices work on my Note 10.1, or is there a problem with 10.1? If they're not expected to work OOTB, is there a fix to get them to work with the Note 10.1?
Regards,
Todd
Some may not work on the Note or other devices.. Read before buying
Nah, that ain't it. The connector is the same, and even my knockoff Chinese devices that never mention the Note 10.1 work.
OP, what version of the OS are you running? By "nothing happens", do you mean not even a notification in the status bar?
Update: The software update Samsung just pushed out appears to have corrected the problem. Both the devices mentioned below now work just fine. Talk about timing!

Well I'm pretty sure this is a Samsung device, although it could be a knock-off,
but it's labeled just like the Samsung device. I'm running standard Samsung
version for the Note 10.1 GT-N8013, which is Android 4.1.2, kernel version
3.0.31-813049, build number JZO54K.N8013UEUCMB3.
When I plug in the reader, I get "USB connector connected" message. If I plug
in an SD card, nothing. If I do the same thing on my Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, "USB
mass storage connected" displays when I plug in an SD card and the file browser
comes up.
I also have what I suspect is a cheap Chinese knockoff device called GALAXY Tab
OTG Connection that provides an SD card reader, USB OTG, and MicroSD reader.
It's also labeled 5+1 in 1. It too works perfectly on my Tab 2 7.0, but does
the same thing as the EPL-1PLRBE on the Note 10.1.
So how do I know if they just aren't compatible, or if the Note has a problem?

Ok, so I have run into some problem which I cannot figure out. I have this Toshiba Micro SDXC 64GB (Japan) for 3 month in the Tab3 8.0 w/o issue. When I tried it in the Note Pro 12.2 and it failed to transfer files just like most KatKit users have experienced, so I rooted mine and tried again, not working. This same card has been working fine in both Tab2 7 & Tab3 8 (all rooted) w/o issue when transferring files from USB. Different cables different ports, different format (exFAT and FAT32), quick or full format, formatted inside Note Pro 12.2 or not, also same result. Is it possible it is merely a capability issue, or the Note Pro 12.2 simple cannot handle 64GB SD properly?
Now I know the root works because I also tried my Samsung Micro SDXC 32GB (Korea) in the 12.2 and it works perfectly even copying 28GB video/audio/eBooks through USB2.0 or 3.0 at once, so my 12.2 doesn't seem to be defective. I hate to spend more on another SD but ended up not working either. Any advice? Or any known working 64GB in this device?
*** UPDATE ***
Ok, I just bought a genuine Sandisk Ultra 64GB locally and it works! So, it is the Toshiba card, which perhaps was a counterfeit even though all tests suggest it is fine? At least I can start using my 12.2 instead of troubleshooting. Wasted 2 days.
AFAIK the act of merely rooting doesn't address the permission issues of Kitkat.
I think to assist others in helping you with your issue they may benefit by having a specific example of what isnt working (though I know you tried to be specific, its just all a jumble). Can you give a specific example of how a transfer fails with start to finish details? At least then others can try to replicate things on their devices.
From what you're describing though if you're replicating an action with the 32GB card that you have vs the 64GB and both are formatted the same then it must be a compatibility issue with the 64GB card.
For me I've been using a Sandisk Extreme Plus 64gb that was formatted exFAT out of the box. I've typically placed video files in the 1GB to 2.5GB range onto the card while inserted in the tablet via USB 2.0 cable from a macbook running mavericks w/ android file transfer and have just tested the placement of a 12GB file using USB 2.0 cable from my PC running windows 7 via simple drag and drop. I'm currently rooted and have applied the group definition permission fix to my platform.xml file.
Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention that I modified the platform.xml too.
I merely copied files from W7 through USB and it would copy some files and then soon stopped and the SD would disappear. It's the same as if the device wasn't rooted at all being mentioned in another thread. But this only happens to this specific card only.
Must be the card if other cards being used the same way don't exhibit the same behavior. If both cards did it then perhaps it would be a driver issue.
Hi folks! Has anyone tried to connect a 128GB memory stick to the S6? I have a 128GB micro SD card and I was thinking of getting a meenova micro SD otg card reader.. Just wondering if the phone would recognize/read it..

I have no doubts in my mind

Taken off the Meenova website:
Due to hardware and software limitations of many Android devices -- especially older ones, compatibility with devices not listed here can't be guaranteed.
Samsung: Galaxy S5, S4, S3, S2, S4 Active, Note 3, Note 2, Note, Mega; Galaxy Tab S
Judging from that I would say you'd be perfectly fine, and common sense was telling me before looking it up that you'd be fine.
I can't think of a single modern device that doesn't support OTG, and all OTG devices pretty much work the same.
The only question is whether it supports NTFS or not, but hey... Just format the MicroSD card with FAT32 and you won't have any worries at all.
My recommendation: Go for it :highfive:

Or you could just use a computer.

It should work for storage sizes up to 2TB. If the S6 can't power a HD over OTG cable, you can get a special OTG cable that lets you add the necessary power from another source.
Hi,
Just a suggestion here, instead of doing it manually by using card and card reader you can do it on the fly you can use sidesync app or smart switch or any other app.
Just install on both phones fire it up on both phones and choose send. It will show you a list of all the content by type and category! Choose whatever you want move and hit send and now on the receiving phone click receive and it'll either create or ask you to join a network u can connect it on send phone by choosing the receiving phone in the "found connection within the app. You will see it start sending files and on the other they'll start coming in. I it is pretty fast too. I have about 40 gigs on my extra and around 20 in internal loads of mp3 which didn't take long. you can check it out. there's even an app by Jio called Jio Switch which does the same. No more downtime and no attachments needed?.
Works!!! I use mine through a SANDISK Wireless USB Flashdrive-(it has a micro-SD slot) out through an OTG & it has been performing flawlessly! You should have no problems with it, but I would make sure it's formated to ExFat or ExFat32 just to make sure it reads....
What is it hardware or software that limits the capacity for the external sd card in the Note 3's to 64gb ? And is there anyway to change that to 128gb or more ?
