Can I use 64GB microsd formatted with exFat on LineageOS 14.1 on a Kenzo ?
Are there any drawbacks to doing this?
I would like to be able to use large files on it, ie some movies, etc
Sorry if this was answered, but I couldn't find anything in my searches

Hi guys
I just installed Cyanogen OS CM12.1 nightly 20160203 to my Xperia Z2 tablet SGP521 (the one with LTE)
after i thinkering with it for a while, i just realized that there isn't any microSD installed
so i pulled out the card and try to figure out what is wrong
I googled and find some answers but none of them is working for me
I tried to change the filesystem format to FAT32 with 3 different programs (acronis disk director, ease us partition magic, and dos version formater) and none of them is working.
my card is a exFAT file system
I'm very sure that my card is not a fake one (it is a sandisk ultra 64 gb microsdxc class 1)
I can read it from the card reader and it shows all the files inside but i cannot write to it and it is not showing in my tablet
Any idea what else to do to fix this?
Thanks guys
I have an ASUS ZenPad 3S 10 (Z500M) tablet that I tried to use with a SanDisk Ultra 128GB MicroSDXC card configured with adoptable storage under android 6.0. It hasn't been a success. I install a ton of games with large obb files from my googleplay account to it, and though it works fine for a time, after a while, I get strange errors and can't write or delete from the MicroSD card or transfer files to it via USB data cable anymore. A reboot fixes it, but only temporarily. I'm thinking it's either bugs in adoptable storage with 6.0 or the size of the card. Anyone have success with a similar setup?
I'd like to try switching over to formatting the Sandisk as external storage, but since my ZenPad 3S 10 can't be rooted, I have no way to run obb files off of it with apps that allow you to do this. Is there any possible way to change the default installation folder of android games and apps to a MicroSDXC card on the ASUS ZenPad 3S 10 (Z500M)? I have this sneaking suspicion that adoptable storage is just not stable and reliable with 128GB microsd cards though I'm open to the idea that it's something else causing this issue
So... I guess it is absolutely, totally, completely and utterly impossible to run Android games and obb files off of a 128GB microSDXC card formatted as portable external SD storage on an unrooted android device under MarshMallow. Not even the best of the best of the most genius android hackers has found a solution apparently. Alas, I have no recourse *insert the saddest emoji face you can find here*

How's this going for you now that Nougat 7.0 is available for the 3S 10?
This is why moat oem removed that option from their devices. The way Android works doesn't really work with apps on sdcards and since Google removed all sdcard code from Android each oem uses their own code and it doesn't always work right.
I can somehow confirm this problem - I'm using a 128GB SanDisk microSD in my Moto G4 Plus (Android 7.0) and it works fine for some time. But occasionally all apps that are installed on the SD card get "corrupted" and force close as soon as you open them. Uninstalling and reinstalling the apps from Play Store solves the problem (reboot / cache wipe / etc. does not in my case). Logcat showed some permission denied errors, so I'm guessing it's a similar problem. Unfortunally it seems like there is almost no discussion about such an issue, if you Google it only stuff like "how to unofficially enable adoptable storage using ADB". Have you tried it with a smaller SD card like 64GB?

No, I haven't. I have heard though that smaller MicroSD cards i.e. 32GB work much more reliably with adoptable storage but haven't tested it myself.
I can confirm that on my s4 mini the adoptable storage runs stable with a 64 GB card - however, I face one nasty issue: after each reboot, the app icons disappear from the launcher. I guess this has to do with too slow mounting of the sd card by the system, however this is annoying. Does anybody have a solution for this? Have LineageOS 14.1 installed.
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!!
been flashing some of the roms for the V30 recently to see how they were and have been getting a "issue with SanDisk SD card" which would lead to having to format my sd card in order to use it as extra phone storage or portable storage, and have been wondering is this just a thing with 9.0 and sd cards in general or the roms? phone i have is US998 and the roms I've been flashing have been LineageOS 16.0 [Unofficial] and Dot OS 3.0.
Its the ROM. My 200gb sandisk card also refused to mount on AOSP Pie ROMs, even though it works fine on stock and TWRP. Might be because its formatted as exFAT
Haven't tried flashing any custom ROMs on my LG V30 yet, but I have had this issue crop up on older devices when toying with different ROMs..
In those cases, it was just a matter of one ROM expecting an SD card formatted in one file system, and another ROM utilizing a different file system.
If that's the case here, you'd best just backup the contents of the SD card to a computer, let the new ROM reformat the SD card, then restore the contents of the SD card from your computer backup.
DotOS works if your on the March version, April update broke it for me but my Sandisk 200Gb works perfectly on the march version. (VS996)
Confirmed, its due to said ROM being built without exFAT support in the kernel. Mainline AOSP doesn't have it, so its entirely up to the maintainer. FAT32 is a safe format, but it sucks if you want to use your sdcard to store large videos due to the 4gb limit

yeah tried that and my SD Card now works between both roms no issue although for some reason i can't seem to backup either on the SD card and only on my phone which kinda sucks
Does any android 11 Rom supports exFAT or 64GB+ Sd Card?
the last Android 11 rom i tried, i don't remember the name, says my 64GB SD card is corrupted. While it works flawlessly on Android 10.
Can someone give me a solution? about that or suggest any particular 11 rom, or any tricks?
Thanks In Advance

No (for exFAT).
I'm experiencing it now.
Sorry my phone is not xiaomi, it's an ASUS ZF MPM 1. On Custom ROM Colt 7 (Based on AOSP Android 11).
After read some articles on internet that ExFAT would be able to be read by my phone (which are false information! Damn), then,
I just formatted my 512GB Micro SD into ExFAT, and transfer my files (about few hours to do with a class 10 card, USB 3 card reader & ports) into it, on Windows 10 PC.
When I put it back on my phone, the phone forces me to format it first before I can use it as a Portable Storage. Which I know would be aFAT32 again like before. Damn.
Now I have to repeat the time consuming procedures again, put it out from my phone, put it into the USB card reader, copy all the files into my PC storage, re-format the Micro SD Card with FAT32, copy all the files back again into the Micro SD, and then I can use it in my phone.
Damn.
Don't repeat my fault. Maybe there are some phones and ROMs which can use ExFAT, you can try if you want. But IMO to be safe, just format it into FAT32. Yes, with all the limitation of FAT32 LOL.
Oh and about the solution of what you experience, perhaps.. Backup your Card, and then format it, I recommend to format it on PC or "with TWRP' if on your phone. I hope that can solve your problem like mine before.
Good luck

There's Lineage ROM Android 11 based for my Asus phone, but I like this COlt 7 for now. I like Lineage ROM, have been used it on my old phones few times, so
Maybe I'll try it later.
For now, IDK if it is worth enough to change ROM now only to try will I can have exFATcompatibility or not, but maybe some other time I could try.
does anyone know of a smartphone with android that absolutely certainly supports exfat or ntfs?
