[Q] Unable to format 8gb microsdhc from FAT32 to exFAT - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I want to root my S4 but I'm unable to format my 8gb SanDisk micro sdhc card. I've tried many methods and have been unsuccessful with Google. My stock windows xp formatting tool has the exFAT format option but when I try to format it, it says "Windows was unable to compete the format".
I've tried using an adapter into the memcard port, usb adapter as well as through my S4 while mounted. I've also tried through command prompt but it says "format not available for exFAT drives"or something similar. When I try third party format apps, exFAT isn't even an option. I can format between FAT32, NTFS and even RAW but not exFAT.
Can someone please offer a solution? Thanks.

Windows XP and exFAT
There is a compatibility issue with XP and exFAT. In order to make it work with XP you will have to install an update and/or service pack. A search through google should lead to you what is needed to be installed.

Thank you. I didn't try that because exFAT was an available option even though it wasn't working. I thought it being available meant I had the update. I'll try installing the appropriate update and post the results after.

Help me - Archos 70IT not connect PC

after i fortmated A70IT (use Reformat Device in Boot menu), it cannot connect to PC. So i can't copy firmware to upgrade.
Pls help me, how can connect A70IT to PC?
Thanks all.

yes. Sometime, show the warning request fortmat Disc I: ( disc of A70) but can't format it. The warning only show in few second and then disappear.
Having trouble with the translation. If you can still get into the Boot Menu, but the ram disk doesn't show up when you select Update Firmware, it sounds like there's some hardware trouble. I'd try to contact support. Someone else may have some ideas, as well.
Thanks all, i found my problem. The cable was broken so i bought the new cable. it's ok.
I installed SDE, UrukDroid 1.0 successfull.

Does the card works on your pc?
if yes, reformat it and try it on your archos.
if no, your card is propably broken..
yes, it working on PC very good, i formatted many on FAT32 and NTFS but when insert to A70, it not works.

Don't format NTFS, it's not supported on every FW version. Make sure the partition table in MS-DOS type, and make sure the storage scheme on the A70 is set to Fat, not Ext3.

Windows and Multiple SD Partitions

The only way that I've found to allow Windows to recognize more than just the first listed SD partition is to install drivers to make the card a Local Disk instead of a Removable Disk.
This would be extremely useful for users who run the SD version of CM7, where the image creates a four partitions with the 4th being all of your user data.
Here is the tutorial on how to modify and install the Local Disk drivers:
http://www.getusb.info/usb-hack-turn-a-usb-stick-into-a-hard-drive-or-local-disk/
In theory, if you use a USB to SD adapter, this should work, but it's not working for me. I thought all XP drivers were compatible with Windows 7, but maybe that isn't correct.
Anyone else want to give it a shot?
Ahh, the old hitachi drivers. I posted a guide about them some weeks ago. They will work on Windows 7, just not the 64bit version of it. Where exactly are you having problems with it?
Sent from my 8086 using xda retrograde.
I have problems exactly where you say. It seems that the drivers aren't compatible with my 64bit operating system.
Any chance I could modify the driver to make it work?

What happens if you install a 32-bit Windows XP virtual machine on you 64-bit system. Would that allow you to use XP the drivers?
I don't have an XP .iso handy at the moment to run in VirtualBox, but I'm going to test this on an XP OS and a Windows 7 x86 OS within a day or two.

Except I didn't pay Micro$oft the big bucks for Professional or Ultimate. I'm running Home Premium on my desktop which doesn't allow XP Mode. Stupid Windows...
I will check it using another OS shortly.
If you're going to use a virtual machine, then why don't you just use Ubuntu? It will mount everything just fine.

Because they want a solution which doesn't require dual booting and is immediately available. Unfortunately the crap support for other file systems will continue to be a big problem for them. (EDIT: Or did you mean to run Ubuntu in a virtual machine?)
Running Ubuntu or PC-BSD or any other more FS robust OS in Oracle's VirtualBox (which is free and relatively easy to use) is probably the best solution for many here.
I know all partitions and all file systems mount in Ubuntu, but the point of this is to get multiple partitions to be readable/writable in Windows, since the majority of users run this as their main OS. The idea of running XP in a virtual machine was simply to check and see if the drivers were compatible; the idea was not meant to be a permanent solution.
As for Windows mounting Linux file systems (Ext2 and Ext3 specifically), this would be my next step. I believe the solution does exist. Check out the freeware Ext2IFS and ExtFsd if you're interested. I haven't gotten the chance to try them because I'd like to get multiple Microsoft partitions readable first.
Anyway, after trying a USB drive and a SD card in an MMC reader on both a 32bit Windows 7 Home and XP Home this morning, I have not been successful.
I can confirm that the USB Local Disk drivers are in fact compatible with both of these operating systems, but Windows is still recognizing the drives at Removable Disks instead of Local Disks. I will try to work on it a bit more in a little while.
Total Commander has support for ext bases file systems.
So, can cm7 use an ext sd file system just like fat 32?

I believe so. In fact, the SD card version of CM7 final uses two ext4 file systems, one of them being the partition used for the "internal storage."

I'm able to manually mount the sdcard as ext4, however CM7 doesn't recognize the sdcard, and won't mount it for me.
Does anyone know what we need to change to get CM7 to recognize an ext4 sdcard?
Thanks!
Little bit of a thread hijack going on, but that's okay.
Is your vold.fstab mounting the correct partition?
Okay, so I got all the different partitions of my SD card to mount this morning, even an Ext3 file system. I might do my own How-To later for the CM7 users on here and so that it appears using more tags in someone's Google search.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread but I need to know: Did you ever document somewhere how you got this working under Windows 7 64-bit?
I'm in the same boat as you, needing to be able to mount and read an ext2 partition on my Windows 7 64-bit. I've got the necessary drivers that'll let me read ext2 and above but having access to that 2nd partition while the card is in my Windows laptop is where I'm stumbling.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
In fact, I actually did manage to find the drivers for x64 Win7. Check out post #7 of this thread right here to see the details.

Hey, i'm posting this from my Remix OS 2.0 interface. I watched your tutorial and i don't thing it will work for my situation. I run Ubuntu and these tools are not available that i can find.
Remix is installed on a 16G USB.
When in the OS it reads only 4Gb of the USB.
I bought this thumb drive specifically for the Remix OS so i want to use the whole drive.
Is there a way to increase the volume while using it?

Converted my FAT32 partition to NTFS with EaseUS Partition Master 10.8 and follow the rest of the tutorial ... Internal storage now 16GB
Thanks
So Kabeer, is there a way to use this method for USB booting only as @superTard has said? I have the same request as he does, to boot only from USB but want to use the whole USB partition for space.

I've read that you could create an empty data folder in the root directory and then send the grub entry to it with
Data=
In the kernel string...
I'm testing here if this will work (maybe even in an ext4 partition).

I know this is a x86 rom, but I think that rom can be ported to ARM devices. ..
Remix mini PC is quite likely a Samsung S4 and there are Ordroid hardwares, Octacore and very much good to run RemixOs. ..

My Galaxy Note 3 is able to do a multiboot and that will be great for use it as mobile or HTPC (for exemple) with RemixOs

Awesome, thanks!
By the way, before I got the USB-3 flash drive, I ran Remix OS from a USB-2 flash drive. It worked just fine. Not as fast as USB-3, but still fine for testing purposes. You might be able to test your method using a USB-2 flash drive.
I'm a bit of a noob, so I think I'll wait until you have tried it to see what you say. By the way, some other guy has come up with another method to accomplish the same thing. But I didn't quite understand his instructions either.

Remix OS USB Harddrive increase internel storage?

Hello,
i would like to watch some maxdome, netflix etc. films and series in a place, we haven't got internet. Because you can't download videos for offline using on pc, I thought i can install Remix OS on a external Harddrive, install apps like maxdome to download films at home and watch it offline. It works, but you only have nearly 4 gb internal storage on this operating system. I found a tutorial on how to increase the internal storage, but this only works on harddrives formatted to NTFS. And you can't install Remix OS on a NTFS formatted external harddrive, can you?. Is there any way to increase the internal storage on FAT32? Will the developers of Remix OS increase the internal storage in the future?(Because it's only Alpha so far) Another problem is, that when i when I connect the laptop to the TV with HDMI, it only transfers the video, but no audio. Will this be fixed in the future?
Sorry, my english is not the best
I am trying to find a way to increase the "data.img" file that is generated on the USB stick... If I can't figure it how, the only option is installing on the HD and make the tuto's.
And I think its possible to install on an external drive and use the whole space. Gonna figure it out how 4 us, okay? \รต/
I think that the HDMI problem will be solved on the next updates. Anyway, its still on Alpha...
While its not solved, we can always use an P2-P2 audio cable ... haha.
The FAT32 file system has a limitation of 4GB files. There's no way to have a bigger data.img without making your flash drive NTFS

Hey
After a while searching and studying about this, I realised that I couldn't make it on the pendrive.
BUT
i successfully installed the OS on my SSD ( OMG, such fast booting ). I split my SSD, formatted to EXT4 and installed, and BOOM! 12 gigs of internal storage.
What does it mean? It means that you can install on a flash drive, such as USB stick or External HD, formatting as EXT4 partition, and run from there.
I'll make some tutos ASAP, teaching how to make those tricky stuff.

[EDIT] Sorry, I'm gonna be a little busy this weekend. What you can do at all is to install the iso normally in a USB Stick, run it with the "INSTALL=1" parameter, format another USB with EXT4 and install it on the stick. You should get it with the internal storage as the size as the USB stick.
I didn't tried it yet, but its a possibility.

Just install normally the ISO on a USB sitck and boot it normally. When it appears for you select on the both modes ( resident and some other ), you press "E" on your keyboard, to edit the command line. There, you put INSTALL=1 parameter. Then , you'll install it normally, just selecting the right stick.

Will it install grub to the USB. I dont want to overwrite grub on my HDD. Currently I have managed to have a USB formated with ext4 and swap, and was able to use unetbootin to put install files on. I dont use the install option as I havent used the two usb as you have here. I do have a full install on my internal ssd and have 56 gb to play with but would like to have a usb that can boot on any computer with the ability to access more than 4gb. I have tried a few ways and if it doesnt mess with the bootloader on my ssd then id be happy to know that.

I discovered somethings with my notebook. Its an Asus X550LN, and the BIOS is as secure as hell. So, I had to search on the partitions created the GRUB that the installer says it was installed. And my BIOS just read one type of File System ( I don't remember it right now, but its the one that Windows uses, not Ubuntu ). When I found the GRUB bootloader on another partition, i just copied the files from one partition to another, added a boot option for it to reach the bootloader and BOOM, "chooseable dual-booted". Yeah, its hard because I have to enter in the BIOS everytime I want the other OS, but its a step. LoL.
Anyway, I think you should try to make a 400MB Partition to install the bootloader on the stick, and the space left just format as ext4 and install the RemixOS there.
Yeah... I don't know if you understand what I'm saying.... It can be confusing, but its perfectly clear on my mind. :silly:

I can dual boot etc. I can do this through Ubuntu by editing the grub command, I have not tried using the REMIX bootloader because it will overwrite the one I am currently using. I have managed to have dual partitions on my stick, but alas cannot boot to the partition needed. Do you have any idea how to edit the lines for booting to the ext 4 on the stick? Its a little different than my Ubuntu grub edit and it just wonte see the secondary partition. Install went fine i look at the files and it's all there just cant figure out hot to edit the current boot config to boot proper -partition.
Thanks and totally get ya. :silly::laugh:

You just have to install GRUB bootloader when it asks you, the other questions you can skip. Then it works!

Don't you just love it when someone just posts a link to an application which has so many variables and solutions to a problem? Are you sure any specific solution would resolve the OP's issue? Sounds like a tool to be very careful with as not to permanently loose data.
