64GB card from my E3D now only showing 27GB after format??? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hey all. I recently went over to the LTE from my E3D. In my E3D I had a 64GB card that worked without issue. I bought it from Best Buy so I have no doubt of its authenticity. I have been using it on my LTE for a few days now, but today I had to get a brand new phone from Sprint for an unrelated issue. When I put the card onto this new LTE, it said it was blank and prompted me to format it, which I tried to do, but it said failed. After a few tries, it finally said that it worked, but now it says that there are only 27GB on the card, when I know it is a 64GB card. Both the phone and Windows is only seeing 27GB and it is really starting to annoy the S**T out of me. Thanks in advance for your help.

Try formatting it on you pc
sent from my EVO LTE

Like Spyderekz said, try pulling it from your phone, formatting it on your pc (make sure to select default allocation size if you're doing this on Windows). Then put it back into the LTE and make SURE to format it again there (simply erasing data will do it). If that doesn't work, try the card on the 3D to make sure it's not actually damaged (although that would be very strange).

You can try the format utility located below if still having problems. It's put out by the SD Association and is supposed to be the best there is, but I don't remember where I first read about it.

i have a 64gb kinston class 10 mmsd micro sd and my computer and evo only saw it as 27gb
I have found that if formatting on your pc and you use a micro sd to usb drive windows only sees it at 27mb as well. if you use a sdcard adapter and put it into an sdcard reader then windows can see the full drive and allow u to format it to nfts or exfat. as well the card formatter above should see full size as well if using the sdcard converter but not if using a microsd to usb converter
this may help as well

Only thing I can think of to cause the difference in the amount of vailable memory is the EVO 3d unofficially supported 64gb (but they could only claim 32gb with memory tech at time of testing) and the EVO LTE still officially only supports up to 32gb (minus formatting/partitioning) which would make it 27gb-ish...haven't really found anywhere that says EVO LTE supports more....someone correct me if I'm wrong......kinda how windows vista only saw up to 3.25gb of ram and later they updated to show 4gb+ for people with more ram installed....does that make sense?....

I bought my 64gb card and put it in my e3d. Said card was damaged and to format it. It saw 58gb of the 64. Fine with me. I am using the same card in my LTE with no issues. Maybe the card got corrupted and took a dump? Try formatting it over and over.
Off topic: the ram thing on Windows is a 32 bit vs 64 bit thing. Anything over 3.25gb on 32bit would get allocated towards graphics memory if I remember correctly. 64 bit OS would give you your ram to the max potential.

Oh ok, looks like its probably something else then. Just throwing an idea out....never had it happen personally but was a possibility....so in other words the elte looks like it shouldn't have a problem with 64gb cards? Good to know when I'm shopping for a bigger card....this 8gb runs out quick. Thanx for the clarification.

Yeah, wen I upgraded from the 3D I had to re-partition my card using TWRP....was just wondering if he has a ext4 partition he's not aware of...

Ahhh, that's a good point....I HAVE read something in the past about that possibly causing issues with flashing/memory allocation etc...wish I paid attention when I partitioned my card to ext4 for certain rims I used in past.....I'm no help anymore...but I am curious to see the result.

I want to point out that 58GB from a 64GB card is the correct size. You aren't losing anything in the format. Its just the difference between how storage companies and your computer measure memory.
Storage companies -> 1000MB = 1GB
Computers (including phones) --> 1024MB = 1GB
So... 64GB = 64,000,000,000 bytes according to storage companies
Your computer/phone sees that 64,000,000,000 as 64,000,000,000/1024/1042/1024 = 59.6GB

To the OP, 32gb is the biggest for sdhc card but most phones can handle the 64gb sdxc that just came out. My skyrocket recognizes the 64gb card easily and thats running essentially the same hardware as the ATT note. Should work fine

Sorry, your incorrect! A quick Google search will show many users formatting their 64gb micro sdxc to Fat32 and working with Many if not all 2011 Android phones, so there is no reason for it to not work here.

Thank you. So since the Note is so similar hardware wise to your skyrocket, I see no problem using a 64gb micro sdxc, other than the crazy cost.
NOOOO!!!!
No 32gb internal mem? Only 16gb? But it can run 64gb external sdxd? This has been verified? Samsung still says 32gb class 10. I wouldn't mind the 16gb internal if it can run the 64gb external. But 16gb in and 32ex I'll feel dupped.

I've really considered upgrading if it does work well enough. I want to get my entire music collection on my phone without having to worry about storage. And this sounds perfect.

its great just format it in the phone, and you get about 61.2 GB after, and your good the write speed is around 9.5 mb/s and the read is 30-38 mb/s

Personally 16GB is perfect for me. All my V0 MP3s can fit on that. I don't collect album and only my favorite songs.
personally I listen to flac files and they are frankly huge compared 10 mp3. I have 2 32 gig cards, maybe I should consider an upgrade.
CAUTION
While I do not really intend to go searching for the thread, an early adopter of the 64GB card initially thought it worked, and then it bottoms up pretty quick. Find the thread; but if he is correct DO NOT BUY THIS CARD FOR THE REZOUND.

Not exactly sure if this is the same one that Bestbuy has but I bought the SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC Class 6 Memory Card for my Rezound and haven't had any issues (about a month old now). I formatted it on the computer then the phone. It is very expensive but definitely worth it in the end. Before the 64 I used my 32 GB microSD that came with the Thunderbolt without issue. Up to now I haven't had any adverse effects.

64GB Micro SD card do they work on photon ?

hi, I'm looking to buy a 64GB MicroSDXC card
do they compatible with photon ?
can anybody who have them give some inputs ?
thank you.
No, the Photon only supports microSDHC, and like you said, the 64gb (also, anything over 32gb) is classified as microSDXC.
32gb + 16gb internal should be more than enough anyways, provided you use it wisely.
If you absolutely NEED that amount of space, some users were able to use the Photon as a USB host and attach an external USB flash stick using a special USB-F-MicroUSB-M

I figured it would work fine in the Photon since it seems to work in about everything else with a SDHC 3.0 compatible slot.

Let me better explain my "No big difference, so I went back" comment. I had a 16Gb SanDisk Class 4, I was happy. I got 32Gb SanDisk Class 6 for $100.00 and I was happy. I got Komputer 32Gb Class 10 for @ the same. When I compared them read/write, depending on what I was reading or writing, the SanDisk was either faster OR not that far behind, so I went back to SanDisk for the realiabilaty. I now have 64Gb SanDisk Class 6 and I'm happy (Kinda of, there is nothing on it? I either use Google or ZumoCast to acces my desktop at home?)
My suggestion, look for stability, look at the reviews where people smarter than I have done extensive testing. Not all chips are alike. Also, look at your needs. If you take a ton of pictures or video, I assume you would need high write speed. If your a gamer, I assume you would need high read speeds? Just me!
Thanks for the further explanation! I'll probably just pick up the class 6. It's getting rave reviews on Amazon.

[Q] About Evo 3D 4GB internal store :)

Hi pro !
After deep research I know that Evo 3d have 4 internal memory but just 1 GB for user storage . I always have stable 1.1 GB whatever the ROM I use. ( My desire have 1.5 GB ROM ( or some people call it internal storage ) and after flash ROM it is fluctuated from 1 GB (for sense rom) to 1.3 GB ( for cyanogenmod rom ). So, I think in Evo 3d, the producer make internal storage to 2 separate part: ~3GB for ROM file ( OS file ) and some important file that we unknown it yet ( except expert and programmer ), and the other is ~1GB for apps that user can install.
My question is that: am I correct? If I am correct ( or evo 3d have actually 4GB internal memory ) how can we use the rest? In my opinion, the ROM data is maximum about 500 MB, therefore we should have 3.5 GB free space for apps.
Now, I use 2 phones and even desire hd is not as modern as Evo 3d but it still have more space for apps. ( I use install the same app to 2 phone and desire hd have ~400MB and evo 3d have 250MB ).
Is there any way to force the device show the rest of internal memory???( excluding 1GB user space )
Thanks pro !
P/s about move 2 sd card. I move almost of app to sd card except some widget and ground running like yahoo chat or viber. I even use root move to sd to move more unmovable app but I still lack of space i am a smart phone addict.
It has 4GB but, as you said, most of it is used for system and data files. That space wasn't meant to be used as user storage besides the little piece that we got. It's probably best not to mess with them.
If you really need more than 1GB for apps alone you should look into moving them to your SD Card.
Sent from my EVO 3D S using xda premium
thanks for your answer. I am a smart phone addict ^^!. I move almost of apps to sd card except some that have widget and some ground running app like yahoo chat or viber. I even use root app to sd to move more unmovable app ^^! but my user space is still go down and down ^^!. I buy the second device evo 3d because I think it have more space for me but I am wrong . So, I dream about 2 way that it can use ~3gb (because the OS can not be large like that at least up to now). Desire hd can do that ( and my first phone is G1 is the same with desire HD) so I still hope it can be the same with evo 3d. I am a extremely user that I spend 7-8 hour a day but I am not a programmer ^^!. So, is there any "quietly brilliant" answer for this .
The other way that I dreaming is how to trick the device that sd card is internal memory. It can be have 32GB so we can do anything we want. Sound like crazy but it is still a idea.
Thanks for all.

Are you wiping the your sd when you flash a new rom??? If so, I wouldn't recommend it.
When you wipe your phone you don't need to wipe your sd, just data/factory reset,cache & davlik cache. That way your music will stay no matter what rom you flash. If your not wiping the sd then I'm puzzled on what you mean when you posted it takes a while to backup all of your music when you flash a new rom.
Are you backing up your music every time you flash a new rom??? If so may I ask why??? Also as far as how fast a
32gb sd is well that depends mostly on what class it is and who's the manufacturer. Good brands to look for IMO are samsung,sandisk,pny, & patriot. Beware of cheaps sd's they usually don't yield the performance they advertise. Also the speed will vary according to how you run your phone. Class of sd's works like this basically. Take in mind this is just my understanding you can google to get a better and exact understanding. Class 4 means a minimal write speed of 4mb/s class 6 means 6mb/s class 10 means 10mb/s. The read speeds will be defined by the manufacturer and will vary with your setup of your rom,kernel,tweaks etc. You can also download apps to increase the read ahead speed of your sd. Hope this helps.

I only have an 8G card because it takes so long to back up all my music when I wipe the phone and install a new rom.
What is the write speed of the 32G card?

This is the card I just bought:

Much faster than my older Wintech 16GB class 10. I am super happy with this card.
Here is a speed test:

thanks for your answer. I am a smart phone addict ^^!. I move almost of apps to sd card except some that have widget and some ground running app like yahoo chat or viber. I even use root app to sd to move more unmovable app ^^! but my user space is still go down and down ^^!. I buy the second device evo 3d because I think it have more space for me but I am wrong . So, I dream about 2 way that it can use ~3gb (because the OS can not be large like that at least up to now). Desire hd can do that ( and my first phone is G1 is the same with desire HD) so I still hope it can be the same with evo 3d. I am a extremely user that I spend 7-8 hour a day but I am not a programmer ^^!. So, is there any "quietly brilliant" answer for this .
The other way that I dreaming is how to trick the device that sd card is internal memory. It can be have 32GB so we can do anything we want. Sound like crazy but it is still a idea.
Thanks for all.

Yes, you are right , you can use desired sd card space to store /data etc by making a sd-ext partition using recovery and by using some scripts or apps.

Yes I'm wiping my card and backing up my music and photos when I try a new rom. I haven't found one I'm 100% set on but close. So yes I have been wiping the card to try and rule out problems due to having old data on the card from rom to rom.
I haven't done this a whole lot (but I am soff on my evo3d) which I guess is pretty good. I'm still trying to get the phone dialled in to how I like.

Although your method is definitely a good one its really only needed "imo" if you start having lockups,freezes,reboots,etc. It will save you a little time but that's all. However your method is a good way to prevent the above mentioned issues.

:| I read this forum and have some question.
Is there a trick that make device believe that one part of SD is a internal sd ? or just is one kind of "root app to sd"? I mean is it move 100% of app to sd or just a part of it and the other system part is still on internal memory?

Whole app will be directly installed in your sd even though you haven't moved it......if you create a 1gb sd ext partition on your 32gb sdcard then the card will be of 31gb only and the remaining 1gb will be used as your internal memory.....

Lets Talk About SDCARDS

So what micro sdcards are people using as i need a new one want 32GB at least. Does it support 64? Preferably an amazon link!
link below, you can go 64gb or 128gb if you like. on 4.4.2 you might have to do the KK SDcard fix, which is simply editing a file in permissions and allowing RW access to the sd card. Might be the same for Lollipop, but I'm not there yet on my phone.
One thing I did find is that I get lag if I stick loads of music on there and use the stock app, so I use rocket player as it handles that better.

I haven't tested it, but I read that it worked fine. It's slightly outside my price point at the moment, once they drop a little buy one.

I think I read somewhere that the G3 actually supported up to 3TB SD cards ! (And yes, I know there's no card that big, but it just means it works ! )
Just get any class 10 sd card.
Just as a PSA, Best Buy is having a pretty good sale on Samsung micro sd cards. I got a 64gb "evo" for $25. Steady write rate, according to us file explorer, on 40mbps.
I can finally explore some 4k recording.
Sdcards for LG G3
In most regions the LG G3 comes with a hearty 32GB of internal storage, leaving nearly 25GB for you to use as you wish. As is often the case, one size never fits everyone — and if you need more than 32GB in your mobile device, you'll have to resort to using an external SD card to expand it. The LG G3's MicroSD card slot supports up to 128GB cards, giving you more room than you'd likely ever be able to fill.

Since I'm newly out of iPhone world, and into LG G3, Android and sdcards ... and I already had a problem with bad 32gb (fake chinese) SunDisk sdcard, which could write to it , but every file wouldd in a day or two get corrupted .. When I inserted the old (and slow) 16gb card , it works as it should...
But, could You refer me or explain, what can / can't I put on the card in my LG D858hk, with 4.4.2. Android. What can I do on stock LG Android, and what with rooting ?
Also, recommend some good quality 32gb at least , preferably 64gb ... since I am a massive hoarder of music etc.

128gb card
I've been using a Sandisk 128GB card for a couple of months now. Currently about half full with music. Reads / writes fine with no discernible real world difference compared to the 16GB card I had previously.
Can't say how it might work with stock, I am Rooted and booted using Cyanogenmod 12 by Manupse. No complaints.

From what I understand, the Samsung Pro cards are great. The one you posted is the last generation one. The current one is rated at up to 90MBps read and up to 50MBps write, and isn't that much more at $59.99.
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Class-Adapter-MB-MG64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU88U
This being said, people tend to prefer the Samsung EVO cards for phone use. They're substantially less expensive ($35.79 shipped):
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Class-Adapter-MB-MP64DA-AM/dp/B00IVPU7AO
The reason people tend to prefer the less expensive EVO cards is their faster 4k random read/write speeds, which is arguably the most important aspect for phone use.
Here's the 64GB Samsung EVO micro SD:
Here's the 64GB Samsung Pro micro SD:
If you're using it in a camera, 4k camcorder, or transferring big files, I can see preferring the Pro. Then again, you can get the very similar PNY Turbo 64GB card (up to 90MBps read) for $27.99 shipped right now, which is less than 1/2 the price.
