Regardless of the ROM I use, (I have tried CM, OmniROM, and even CleanROM. None can access the MicroSD card I have in my phone. However, I can see the SD card fine in TWRP, and if I pull it out of the phone and insert it in a microSD card adapter, I can read and write to it fine on my computers. Why won't my phone see it when it's in the ROM, and how can I fix this?

I have it in FAT32 LBA. Why won't AOSP ROM's recognize EXT4, BTW? It's a native Linux file system. I have reformatted it in FAT32 LBA, and am re-transfering the files back to the MicroSD card. Hopefully it will work.

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
Since exFAT is not supported by AOKP roms and I plan to use one, I have to reformat my sd card. The thing is I don't know how and I cant even find out how to do it.
I've tried reformating in CWM, in Android itself and in Windows (by plugging the phone). There is no option of changing the partition format.
The only way possible is plugging the SDcard directly to the computer? I dont have any adapter so I cant really do it wihout buying one
I use either EaseUS Partition Manager or MiniTool Partition Wizard...google them, you can reformat any SD card to pretty much any format

Format it from within the phone.. Go to settings >storage.. It will format it in fat32
sent from here, there, somewhere!!
Oh, I did format it from within the phone earlier, just like you said. It is in fat32 then I guess, will install an aosp rom later and check it (im currently on sammy based)
thanks guys
Well If it is different can't you just install the new rom then format the card within the new rom??
Also i am sure the GS3 formats the card to exfat and not FAT32 as i thought we didn't have the 4gb limitations??
So I recently rooted my Verizon Note II, rooted with casual and twrp. I flashed the milestone version of aokp and for some reason cannot mount my external sd card. I get an error message that says "sd card is blank or has an unsupported filesystem". The sd card was working fine on my rooted phone before flashing aokp. Any ideas?

Its my understanding some Roms dont support exFat, a file system format used by SD Cards. you should try backing up the data and then formatting it to fat32.

thanks for the advice. It seems like aokp can reformat the card itself, but I'm a little afraid to let it try. I was also just reading about using siyah kernal and another thing called vold-exfat that lets you use an exfat formatted card. I think I'm gonna do one of these two things but it seems easiest to let aokp reformat my card if it will actually reformat my 64gb sd to fat32. I haven't been able to find out what it will reformat to though... very confusing

It won't reformat a 64GB card right. Download something likr EaseUS or another formatting tool. There is one that is posted on XDA quite a bit but for the life of me I can't remember its name.

what is/are the micro sd file system(s) recognised by OPX?
i inserted a 64G micro sd formatted with exFAT, and it was not recognised by OPX.. (it was recognised by TWRP as "/external_sd")
should i try NTFS then? (but im afraid TWRP might not recognise it then..)
any hint? thx..

Ive allso had exfat and have problems with it, now i have ntfs and it works prefect.
In Oxygen 2.1.2 my experience was that the only filesystem working BOTH in Oxygen, Windows and TWRP was Fat32 formatted in TWRP. I really tried them all (exFat, fat32, NTFS, Ext4, f2fs)
However, after upgrade to Oxygen 2.1.3 I discovered that also exFat works everywhere so I reformatted my 128 GB card to exFat.
yes v2.1.3 added back support to exFAT..
What is correct file path for sdcard? Stock E1005 2.1.3-X using stock file Manager?
I have 64gb sdxc gskill class 10 there is no option to format card on phone. Upon boot "sdcard available click to access".
Shows up in Storage. Saving to sdcard is hot & miss. ie. Moving OpenCamera frm internal to sdcard, shows up Settings>Apps, ON SDCARD tab
But not in file Manager

Sorry to bump a really old thread but I noticed on 3.1.4 ExFat is not supported and the phone asks me to reformat and it goes into FAT32
Anyone else seeing this on 1+X?
Yes I found this rather annoying I ended up just formatting it in end. Lol. There is ways around it but eh.
As the title says it all maybe there's some advice or tips from you guys to get it recognized on my Poco F1.
I'm on OmniRom and after booting up the device with SD card it freezes all and got automatic reboot.
On LOS 16 I got bootloop.. Don't even booting up at all.
I need it because I need to put some files there to flash xiaomi.eu and that ofcourse will delete internal storage.
I'm not experienced with the MTP flashing or similar options but everybody is welcomed to help me with step by step instructions.
Thanks allot in advance Poco Fans:silly:
I don't think the roms support exfat microsd cards yet. There's a workaround though: format your sd card to FAT32 using a program on your pc (you will need another program because windows by default can't format large sdcards to fat32). The thing is that FAT32 doesn't support 4gb+ files so that could be an issue but at least it's better than no sdcard at all right.
Another option is to move the files manually temporarily to your pc using MTP so you can copy them back when you've flashed xiaomi.eu

Thanks for your Info. I remember that TWRP could format to FAT32 as well?
Or maybe I could buy another SD card with FAT 32 Format already?
adding exFAT support in rom is not a big thing... our kernel supporting exfat so its just the rom which needs some patches or commits!!
