Hi All,
I'm wondering if 64gb SDXC cards work with the S3...there's a thread that I found on some other forum where people said it works, but I wanted to get the confirmation from XDA pro's...so any idea??
It will work, but beware that the FAT32 specifications do allow for partitions larger than 32Gb. You'll need either Linux or a 3rd-part formatting tool to format a FAT32 partition.
You can always use exFAT on the uSD card, however!
With ICS 4.0.4 we lost the ability to move apps to the SD card, which - for me, at least - was a huge turn off and made an external sd card lose 50% of its funcionality.
Mine is running just fine with a SanDisk Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC 64GB. Installed it in the phone and formated it. No problems.
yes it is supported
They work but you may run into problems with exFAT. I had to reformat mine into FAT32 on an older phone as some music files just refused to show. More details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1698672
Thanks a lot for the info guys..very much appreciate it
Mine also workedd , no problem.

MICROSDXC cards work. SDXC won't fit.

Take any micro SD and I'll give you my personal guarantee it'll work, but I used to work for a bank so I don't know how much my guarantee is worth anymore.

Sorry if my topic title wasn't clear..forgot to add "Micro", i'm sure SDXC cards won't fit..lol
when the phone formats the micro sdxc card, what format is the card turned into?

Is there a reason why the SD port will only accept upto 16GB of memory? To be honest, I do not see myself using more, but I was curious as to why it was limited at 16.
Seems 32GB cards are known to work fine

Cant we just right click on the memory card and select fat32 on windows? Why need a 3rd party app? Just curious.

Will this erase all data on the card?

Tried it.There is no option for fat32 in 64gb sdcard
As OP said this workaround works fine

here is google translation: This software will give me the chance to put on the microsd files larger than 4GB?
no sorry you can not use one file thats has more than 4gb size, its fat32 limitation. This beautiful app only formats cards to fat32
Is the real issue with CM itself?

So I am in the same boat... the main reason I paid big bucks for my 64gb SDXC card was so that I could watch movies, and most of my files are over 4gb in size, so FAT32 is useless to me. What drives me nuts is that my Galaxy S3 handles exFat no problem, and from what I have heard, this tablet (stock/unrooted) will support it.... so the issue appears to be with CM itself, and the developers need to do something to add support, is this correct?

I been researching for 2 days on the internet, even SanDisk Customer Service, and the software they provided SD Card Formatter 3.1, or 4.0 failed. I also tried the following: swissknife, EaseUS Partition Master 9.2.1 Home Edition, Aomei NTFS to FAT32 Converter, they all didn't work :/
The gui you found worked and easy to do a FAT32 like a charm, you rock man!!
Thank you so much!!!
For what it's worth, SanDisk now says the card must remain in exfat format to be safe.
From Amazon.com
"Product Features
-Reformat into file system other than exFAT may cause instability
-Only compatible with SDXC enabled device in exFAT format per SD Standard."
I had my card formatted to fat32 for about two months and it crapped up a few days ago... it got stuck in read only and I couldn't format it in two pc's or my phone. It's getting replaced by sandisk
It's really ironic how a high end card, which cozy a fortune even while on sale, lasts only 4 months, while some no-name cards I've been using for years have zero issues. In fact, the SanDisk 64gb card is the only brand name card I've purchased in over 10 years of using flash memory and it's the only one with a problem. Even compact flash cards I purchased in 2002 are still working

Just wanted to say the exact same thing happened to me almost to the day....got my replacement card form Sandisc now and will be leaving it formatted in ExFat.
well, my 64GB got totally fried, but it was still exFat, so I guess it can happen anyway (it was one of the first 64GB ones available though)
I just bought a new 64gb for my note and it doesn't work. I tried to format it and couldn't and then I put it in my friends note 2 and it formatted and worked fine. I went into settings in my phone and it doesn't show anything at all in the external sd slot. I know this is a noobie question but, could you guys throw a dog a bone.?

When I got mine I could not get it to work, there are several threads around on this, most say to format it using your phone which did not work for me. As I recall I ended up formatting with my PC and I had to use FAT32 filesystem. The ext32 filesystem that is suppose to handle 4GB files would not work for me.

I'm using a Sandisk 64GB microsd I got from Amazon with no problems. Running ICS Black Star X, I formatted the card in the phone if that makes any difference. I read online that memory cards on ebay are usually fakes so hope you bought from a reputable seller.

Officially the Note 1 doesn't support the 64Gb card however a lot of people are saying to format Fat32.
I decided to just roll with a 32 gig myself though

Maybe your device is limited to only 32 gb sd card see its specification in the web

There's a way I think for making it reads the 64 gb...I think you need to re-partition it
