Can i keep my 32gb micro sd in ntsf format? or will my gs3 not like it?
Short answer No
It will make you re-format and you will lose the data on the card.
I had this problem when I first installed my new Micro SD card.
Exfat
format your sd card as ExFat.. That will let you use it to store files larger than 4gb. I currently have a 32gb card formatted as ExFat and have 3 1080p movies at about 6-8gb each loaded. works great and I dont notice any slowedowns becuase of the format type.
give it a go, just backup your card first and then copy it all back after you have formatted! :good:
ok ill format exfat asap. thank you.... on a different note, i was reading that the note supports ntsf. so i just figured the gs3 would.
Wouldn't flashing the Siyah kernal give him ntfs support? I use this kernal and I can connect a 1Tb harddisk formatted in ntfs. Havent tried it with an sd card though
I've formatted the SD card as FAT32 and CMW recovery still telling me cannot mount SD card.

I have a 32gb sd card and formatted with my nook tablet. I've tried to put the videos and photos files (over 2gb) to my device. It can be appeared first time. But some of the files disappeared after I reboot the device or connect to pc. And also I can't download some of the exter download files (almost 200mb to 1gb) from apk. I want to know it's the problem of the format method (fat 32) or my card problem? Thanks!
is that the way to partition the sd? HOw to do for nook tablet? Thanks
please help........!!!!
You do know that FAT32 will not handle a file over 4GB.....
I would format the card in a card reader on your PC and not let the Tablet do that.
It doesn't appear that he is trying to load a single file of over 4GiB, but rather that the collection is of the sizes that he mentioned.
Will FAT32 not handle a 32GiB drive, with a bunch of files of just say 50~500MiB each? Because I remember not too long ago doing just that on my PC...
FAT32 Should read just fine....hmm ...perhaps reformat the card for.another format and see if that fixes the issue? If not, your tab could have a bug somewhere. Try a factory reset
I thought the NT could only handle 16gb expandable storage. The guy in the store told me it is a combined 16gig internal and external to achieve 32gig and a 32gig card would not work.

I am using a 32gb card in my Nook at the moment. It seems to recognize the entire 32gb just fine. Worth the <$40 it cost.
And to the OP, formatting my 32gb SD card was a b***h. I had to format it in win7 as just popping it in the Nook didn't work. I formatted as FAT32. I would suspect you may need to re-format the card with a PC as other posters have suggested.
I've been using a little free program from http://www.sdcard.org called SDformatter that works great for formatting SD cards.
By the way, some of my extra download files for the game displayed as 0b. And I can't delete.

That is the suggested formatter for the SD card in the Nook Tablet based on a thread buried deep here on XDA.
My phone is asking me to format my sd card out of the blue. I have a 32gb Kingtson, I have a lot of crucial data. I have not yet formatted the sd card. I've tried conventional ways of getting my data like using GETDATABACK FAT32 but it did not work. I have used other but no to avail.
Does anyone know what is the best method to recover files from a sd card that was working but now it is not?
Go to settings>storage and unmount microsd. Remove the microsd feom ur phone. Use a microSD card adapter ... a full size sd card that u can put ur microsd card into and will fit into your pc. Click and drag important data from microsd onto desktop. Then fat32 format the microsd and reload the data onto it. Done.
Or u can upload all data to dropbox and then format amnd reinstall... but it may take a while.

Hello
I've recently bought a SanDisk 4GB SD Card, format it to NTFS, I was able to copy large files like my Need For Speed SD Data, .apk files. Then I've checked it in my phone if it is success. But for some reason, .apk files were not showing up on the list, all I see is the SD Data of my NFS. Please help
I'm sorry about my english grammar by the way. :silly:

Other people says that having a corrupted file on a FAT-32 card and you won't open it, you have to reformat it again. Anyways, what sould be the allocation size?
Should I Format My Sd Card to exFAT or Fat32? I want exFAT for file size transfer but wasn't sure if anyone has ran into any problems with it
I had had a SanDisc 32 GB class 10 and everything was ok, until the time in which I needed more than 30GB in my HTC Desire X. So, I decided to buy the Kingston microSD 64 GB class 10. Even though our phone has official limit at 32 GB, after googling I noticed that I would not have problem with this card. So I bought it.
From the begin I had a few problems. Very often, about 2-3 times every day, it was required to unmount - mount the card for reading some files or for renaming them.
... it was not big problem for me. But from yesterday, I cannot have access to the sd. I see a message Damaged SD card, SD card is damaged, try reformatting it. And if I try reformatting it, nothing happens. Also in settings - storage I cannot mount the card, and I just see that SD card is unavailable...
What I have to do now? To try a format from windows 7? If so, what format? Fat32, ntfs or something else?
Maybe it is better to use the warranty?
Thank you in advance...
For sdcard, try to format to fat32 (should work either using gparted or windows format tools).
try to format your sdcard with the offical tool from the sdcard association:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/
if you wanna format your sdcard the right way, THIS IS THE TOOL TO GO!
The SD Formatter was created specifically for memory cards using the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards
if you still have problems, try to get a replacement from your dealer or sandisk directly.
if that doesnt help, try a different brand like kingston, samsung, etc....
