Directory Bind works fine with the Samsung 16gb class 6 card but when I use the Sandisk 32gb UHS-1 card the binding process all goes though green like it should but when I start the Apps I moved the data on it just can't find the data and tries to download again, and I formatted both cards multiple times on the phone and ran benchmarks which show read/write speeds are what they should be, so any idea why this is happening?
What filesystem is your SD card formatted in.
Don't use the exFat but format it to Fat32 with your computer.

Hi there guys
I have been having a problem with 3 sandisk 64gb micro sd cards. I always got them replaced but it is getting frustrating now. Obviously they are formatted in exfat format.
The problem starts when I copy data of over 30 gb. Once i copy the data n the sd is remounted or the phone is restarted i always get the message "damaged sd card" but when i read the card on pc through an adapter it shows the contents ok. So i want to know if anyone can help me so that I may not need to return the card this time around...

Try to format it first in the phone, then start loading data on it.

I also tried it buddy but none of the methods seem to work .. i also tried formatting it then copying data through sd card reader as well as the phone itself... does it have to do anything with some file system issue or kernel related issue... im on stock kernel rooted...

also had the same problem. i formatted the card to fat32 with 32xxx sectors with "GUIFORMAT" app for windows, the it works ok.
then after fat conversion, you can try to format the card to exfat using any app (not the windows one) search google, then it might work, didnt try myself as fat32 works great, and i can use it with the script that makes the card the phone memory, so now i got 64gb instead of 11.6gb of phone storage

where formatted?
how much fully card with data?
witch rom, kernel?
I have the class 10 64Gb Sandisk sd card too with no problems.
Card has about 55Gb info on it and I didn't format the card. Just put it into the phone. Recognised instantly and haven't looked back.
I have a 2nd SGSIII too with a 64gb class 6 sandisk sd card. Same applies but with a little less data on it.

Came formatted in exfat, I then formatted it on my phone as well but it wasn't necessary, still exfat
59.47GB available
Stock international rom, ALF2
If you saw my other post,its similar to this one? My question though is by default,what partition are SD cards set at? I had read thru other website searches,that it was exFAT? If that were the case than my android phone wouldn't recognize a brand new 16gb class 4 sdcard right? Than in which case I would have to format the card to a fat32 format?
If this helps,my ps3 also doesn't recognize the 16gb card but it does recognize the 8gb...I remember formatting the 8gb one to fat32 which by process of elimination makes me assume the 16gb card is on a format incompatible with my android phone/ps3...
Which software would y'all use to partition the entire 16gb card? I can't use my phone as my phone doesn't even recognize the card. As a matter of fact while in recovery it tells me there's an error in mounting

You need to format as Fat32.

I am attaching a very basic Windows tool to format SD cards to FAT32, simple!
Is it possible that this sdcard came with a different partition that's inconsistent with both android and my ps3...ohh and I haven't ruled out the possibility of having a problem with the sdcard slot. I've had problems with the 8gb one working but its working fine now. They are two different manufacturers with these cards....maybe this 16gb card isn't partitioned with fat32....

Well I'm at finding solutions I have a problem with xda premiums default image upload application. I get an error message anytime I try to upload a screenshot...it tells me that I need to upgrade application from respective app store. This kind of error only happens when I select tapatalk hosted forum,any solutions?
I've always used extFAT on my SanDisk 64GB MicroSDXC UHS-1 Class 10 memory card. A few times I tried FAT32 but the S3 still had issues with it so I went back to extFAT. If I was to format the card now to FAT32 would any of the following happen.
1. Card could die sooner because it's FAT32?
2. Are there known bugs with having it be FAT32?
3. Does the speed or performance of the card drop any?

FAT32 vs exFAT (aka FAT64)

1. No
2. Windows will not allow you to create a filesystem larger than 32GB with FAT32, you can use 3rd party programs to accomplish this.
3. FAT32 filesystem performance depends on the size and number of files contained on the fileysystem, many small files will cause FAT32 to be slower than exFAT.
ExFAT also supports ACLs (file permission attributes) and does not have a 4GB single file size limitation.
There is no practical reason to use FAT32 over exFAT unless the devices you are using are incapable of reading an exFAT filesystem (i.e. pre-XP versions of Windows).

I was only thinking this because of being stuck on CWM making a nandroid backup and such since I can't remove the recovery.

I can't seem to get the mount or format in exfat basically I am trying to root the phone like in this site and video but keep getting pwn errors since i guess my sd card not exfat? Also when I try to usb hook up the phone diskmanagement not reading the sandisk sd card?
Take it out of your phone to format it.

I know there are numerous posts on this, however I could not find one that addressed my specific situation.
I have a rooted Lg G3 with stock rom and I am trying to use a class 10 SanDisk Extreme (16gb). The micro sd card read just fine on my computer with no problem at all with reading and writing data, however when I plug it in my phone I get a dialog that addresses the fact that a micro SD card. But when I check the storage setting I see that it has failed to mount.
To see if its a functionality problem on my phone i mounted a class 4 SanDisk micro SD with no error. I tried formatting the sd card through my computer to NTFS and FAT32 with 32 kb allocation size (quick format switched off) yet still no luck. Is it a possibility that LG G3 is not compatible with class 10 micro SD Cards?
Any help would be appreciated, and thanks for your time.
Just to update the information I posted above, but I tried mounting the SD card on my friend's Verizon Galaxy S5 and it ended up successfully being able to read and format it. Maybe it's my phone? If so is there anyway of fixing it or possibly modifying it?
It is possible that the handset cannot read/mount Class 10 cards, I've seen it mentioned in threads before about trouble with mounting SDCards, Class 10 seems to be the biggest problem I've seem mentioned.
Use the search for Class 10 on the forums and see if a solution is available
