I am using a 64gb and have heard 128gb work too. I use a fat 32 partition and link2sd and use external sd as main storage.
I too am using 64GB -- formatted to FAT32. If I recall, my card was pre-formatted with 2 partitions which the phone will not recognise. If you format it to NTFS, TWRP might not recognise it in recovery mode. Windows will not format such a large drive as FAT32, so you will have to use another tool -- e.g. MiniTool.
The caveat is avoid using a (cheap) USB card reader. I've corrupted the card before when transferring too much data to the card. Newer readers built into your laptop or using the USB cable directly to the phone seem okay.

^^ Same as those guys, I also am using a 64gb card. No issues! Though surprisingly it made my Xperia bug out, lol
Just be sure you get something beyond first gen (40,MBS) cards. I have had 0 issues with anything up to 64gb I now have two 128gb cards that both work but get corrupted and require a format every time I attempt to transfer 10 + Gigs of information at a time.

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.
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

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.

Download g-parted, boot it, format the sd-card to fat32, then reformat it under windows to exfat if you want to store files larger than 4gb.

Hey there cowboy,chill!
Maybe it's a fake one?
Where did you get it?
What brand is it?
And how much did you pay for it?
Sure this isn't one of those dodgy cards? Where did you buy it?

I had the exact same problem when I first bought a 64GB card for my S3. Chucked it into my phone, formatted it and then found the phone would no longer recognize it.
Took it back to the retailers I bought it from, got it swapped and the second card has worked mint ever since.
Moral of the story: Probably just a dodgy card. Return it and get it another, most manufacturers offer a lifetime warranty.
Isn't this issue purely caused by the card format system? I thought maybe all card >32GB had to be manually reformated to FAT32 (and then to exfat to avoid the 4GB-limit) before mounting the card in the phone, and there wouldn't be an issue. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I plan to buy a 64GB card myself on of these days.

exFAT doesn't suffer from the same 4GB file size limit and 32GB (Windows) partition size limit as FAT32, which is kinda the point of exFAT in the first place, so no, you should just be able to format it straight off using Windows, to the full 64GB size using exFAT.
That said, I don't have one, so can't speak for how the GS3 handles formatting it itself...

Thanks for confirming that 64GB works with L9.
Few years back I came across a MicroMax device which is lower end simple phone without camera, but as per CATALOGUE and MANUAL, it was said it will support 2GB Memory card only. Once just to see if it works, I inserted 8GB Memory Card and voila!! It supported it without any issue. Only problem was it took longer time to start as hell lot of time was taken in reading card.
This explains why they limit the use of higher capacity memory cards, "for performance issue".
it says in the manual of the phone up to 32gb so in turn some models may not support it or may support it and give issues later down the road as my droid bionic and and a few other phones i had samsung was one of em the sd card port went disfunctional and at the end of the phones life the sd card slot was unusable what so ever any card i put in would not read so be very careful of that cause it can and cant mess up the port but that is from user expierence
Can anyone confirm using a 64 GB memory card ? Also, anyone able to install Apps to SD card ? I followed instructions and did on ADK setinstalllocation 2 but in a application called app2sd it says i might be unable to install to SD as it is emulated and shown only as a folder and not a separate device.
A side note: you MUST insert a blank card EXCEPT it's formatted in FAT32.

Correct. Lots of Android devices don't like NTFS formated microsd cards at higher capacity.

oops. Thanks for correcting me.
Maybe it was just me, but using a 64gb card caused me to constantly run into an error where the card became Read-Only. Tried so many different formattings and permission fixes to correct it but nothing worked. Popped in my old 16gb card and it worked like a charm.
SD Sanddisk Class10 Ok
Hi
I worked with SD 64 GB SD card, and work very good, but i patitioned in in 2 partitions, one vfat and 2nd in ext4, the second partition have some times troubles, then i errase this and only have vfat.
Just bought a new sandisk 64gb card. When I try to mount the SD card I get "damaged card" notification in my status bar. I selected it and it gave the option to format. I did but to no avail. Will this ROM support that size?

I ran into the same problem before. Sadly, the Note does not support 64gb sd cards. The max that you can get is 32gb, unless someone out there can prove me wrong.
Been running a 64GB samsung card in my I717R since release date without issue. I did originally format the card in another phone.
If you need help please use the correct forum. Moved
Is the card formatted to NTFS ?....or FAT32?
also ....is the card an SDXC card ?
Been reading for a bit to attempt helping, and the card should function fine if first formatted to FAT32, but as stated by agoattamer ..cannot be done by the usage device.
Perhaps via card reader and PC ?
Hope it helps a bit ..g

I am using a Rogers branded Note with stock ICS. I purhcased a 64GB Sandisk MicroSD a while back. Out of the box, it would not work, as the card was formatted in exfat. I had to format it to FAT32 first.
Unfortunately windows 7 did not allow this.. I think the card was too big. So I had to google how to, and used a free utility to do it (sorry, I do not recall the name of the app).
Works great now
I did find a fat32 software that works. I only got 59.45gb out of it. I used 32768 for the allocation size.
Would a larger allocation size get me the full 64gb available?

You won't ever get the full 64GB. It is just how it is. Check your hard drives on your computer and you will find the same result.
