Use ext4 format for maximum storage. Fat32 has a upper limit of 4098 mb for maximum file size.
As far as your english is concerned, use google translate. It is much better and helps to communicate easily.

If you have been having issue with exfat card even after formatting it to fat32 this is probably the solution for you
The 64gb exfat card i have never worked on custom roms no matter what software i used to format it to fat32.
But finally it worked with this one software, Just make sure you follow the instruction correctly.
http://software-files-a.cnet.com/s/...&pid=12572695&psid=10863346&&fileName=epm.exe
First use easeus to delete the partion in 64 gb card.
then Click Start menu, select Run and enter diskmgmt.msc
You need to find the disk with unallocated space. Right click on it and select "New Partition" and follow these steps, clicking "Next"
Enter the maximum size for the Partition Size
Choose assign a drive letter. I used F:
Select "Do not Format this partition"
Click Finish
Now you have a drive letter, this is what we will pass to the formatter
http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/download/fat32format.zip
Now download a copy of fat32format. Extract the EXE file to C:\
Click Start->Run and enter cmd (as admin)
type this - C:\fat32format f:
enter y to continue
Now the sd card should work on phone.

An easier alternative which doesn't require CMD or the use of multiple tools is HP Usb Format Utility:

If it works then sure. i already used 3 recommended softwares all failed so i dont know if this will work.
Thanks for this guide
I always format and re-partition in Linux ...
I always format and re-partition in Linux ... and currently all my large microSD cards have been re-partitioned with the following layout:
- free space (4 MB on 32GB, 16 MB on 64GB - since that's how those came from factory )
- main partition (primary partition 1 - I format that as Fat32 in Linux but then I go to Win7 and re-format to exFat; exFat works perfectly in Android 4.x from Samsung (and good mods) and the CWM recovery from CrisKelo ROM can work just perfectly with exFat when doing backup/restore; other (even newer) CWM versions/alternatives might NOT be OK with exFAT or stuff over 32GB!
- 512 MB Linux swap (primary partition 2) - this gets mounted by special mods that give the kernel virtual memory
- free space at the end (at least 4 MB on 32GB, at least 16 MB on 64GB)!
The only drawback is that at this moment there is no program (on PC or phone) that can resize exFAT - so you need to reformat! That is in contrast to NTFS / FAT32 / ext2 / ext3 / ext4 - which can all be resized perfectly - and IMHO NTFS could be a better option that exFAT (for journaling, even if I do not write that much anyway), but unfortunately there is no serious support for it on CWM; ext3/ext4 could also be even better from the Linux standpoint (but not for the usual Windows user that might have problems reading it) - but again is (surprisingly) not so supported by either CWM nor most ROMs
Just got new Sandisk 64GB cards and was having a heck of a time getting them to play nice with Paranoid Android, this guide was simple, painless and most of all, effective. Thank you much for posting this information.
Works with cyanogenmod nightly 2013-02-17 and ubuntu
So I have tried it out and it worked.

Just wanted to say THANKS
I have been trying to get my 64GB working for days after install wicked rom 5.1 for my Samsung S4, noting worked till I found this post GREAT work and thanks so much!!!!
YOU RULE!
Thanks!! I have only been able to get my Scan Disk Ultra 64G card to work with Perseus kernel and would have to flash it to all Roms then use a hack to swap the internal to get it to work. It was a Pain in the ass and limited my Kernel usage. THANK YOU SO MUCH WHAT A USEFUL POST!! Stick to this plan it works. I have yet to see any other solution. I been dealing with this problem since I had my Galaxy note2 almost a year now.
PS do not use that crappy HP USB format 2.2 whatever program some guy suggested a bunch of malwar garbage I cant get off my computer now THANKS BUDDY Crawl back under a rock which you came.
Thanks for the wonderful help everyone who got it working
Sent from my SHG-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

i have no idea the swap system, as stock, it already has driver for ex fat but since you changed some stuff it might have ruined that driver.
try your card on another phone with stock rom and same android version. if it works then you dont need to change sd card format, just reinstall ROM on your phone.

Format the SD card on a linux box using the ext4 filesystem. You will be able to use large file sizes, and almost everything Android will be able to read it.

Thank you for your kind response Mike. I've tried ext3 filesystem on sdcard but it does not work out indeed. I just want to make sure it will work on kernel-2.6.35-10 of dom customize kernel and CWMv5 recovery v5 . Do I need to install any extra app on my device for supporting that file system.

Q: How do I format an SD card so it can hold a 6GB file.
It is for an sqlite map application so it needs that one big file.
I have a Ubuntu laptop and HTC Dream phone, so I don't care about Windows compatibility.
Phone: Android 2.2.1
SD CARD: 16GB
More info.
When I format on Ubuntu using ext2, the phone didn't recognize it.
When I format in the phone, Linux identifies it as msdos format which limits to 4GB...
Thanks for helping.
I will give kudos on our website, wikispeedia.org and hit your tip jar!

Looks like your device doesn't have ext[2,3,4] support in the kernel (probably using yaffs2 or something like that?), but it seems to have vfat support in it (fat32).
Your only option is to flash on your device a kernel that's got ext[2,3,4] support compiled in. (if i'm missing something, please chime in)
how do i determine what my 2.2.0 kernel is capable of?
I tried to browse thru the sourcecode, but couldn't figure it out.
I had to just stuff my SD card in various peoples phones and I have experimentally figured out that
4.4.4 stock didn't appear to work, however 4.4.0 ROM of some sort DOES support >4GB SD cards...
Thanks for the reply beekay201 !

short answer, you can't put 6GB on 2.2 kernel. I bought a new phone with 4.0.4 and it creates a funky sd arrangement, instead of /mnt/sdcard it instead makes /mnt/extsd1 which will hold a 4GB file max.. I ended up splitting my 6GB file into two 4GB files. They both fit in /mnt/extsd1 just fine.
Can the official 8GB cap on hard drive installs be circumvented? Only 2GB out of the box is free and with Google apps installed I am left with a mere 400MB, barely enough for a functional system. Even a 16GB install size would be preferable, as I most use Remix on the go as a chrome books style lite OS.

Steps from 4 to 6, may help, if not replay on the same page I will give you another method.
If help click thanks
Search for RMXTools here. There is a post with details. I expanded my 8G to around 32G after setting a bunch of stuff up and didn't lose anything. Make a copy before messing with your data.img. I ran the main app from RMXTools, did a check first and it found some journal issue. I ran check with fix and it fixed it. Then I set the new size I wanted and expanded. After it finished I booted back over to Remix and had plenty of free space.
If you are still looking for answer.....

You can refer to my thread. I was able to get Remix installed to HDD without any size limit. No need for any tools.
I have a Moto E with cynogenmod 14.1 Nightly Latest Installed.
Most of the RAM is used in Nougat 7.1.1
I have a 64 GB SD Card.
Is there any way I can create 2 Partitions, 1 for additional RAM, 2nd for Internal Storage for installation of big apps.
I have searched the forum too but didnt find the answer.
Sorry for bothering.
& Thank you for answering.

Try this
http://technofizi.net/how-to-increase-ram-in-android-mobile-phone-using-sd-card/
Bro RAM has very little effect on performance, it is the processor which decide the performance. And u cannot change the processor so either u buy a new device or be satisfied with the phone.
I don't think you could.
Because android would format and encrypt the whole sdcard when you use it as adoptable storage.
Maybe you could use file-based swap instead of partition. I never tried it though...
