Hi, does anyone know a microSD card that works at high speed for TWRP backups? when I take the backup in the internal memory TWRP declared 60Mb / s approximately R / W and 5 Mb / s for the external one, it takes a full ROM backup in 30 minutes in the external one.
I have a Sandisk Class 10 64GB MicroSD (red gray).
Something better? 128GB. I would appreciate your help to buy another one.
Is there any chance that your microSD card is fake?
I use a Samsung one and i get almost the same speeds as internal storage.

I formated it from pc to fat32, try it. I get the same speeds with miui and RR.
Also which version of TWRP are you using?
I have the same problem on my Samsung note 8 using a 128gb EVO pro sd card from the same manufacturer and TWRP 3.2.1 but the write speed when backing up to external sd is awful and the card was ready formatted vfat
Did anyone find the cause and maybe a solution?

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

how much fully card with data?

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.

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.
HI All,
Does Redmi Note 3 pro support 64gb sd card?

I'm about to get a Redmi Note 3 Pro (ordered from Top One on Aliexpress, will arrive next week) and I'm wondering which MicroSD to buy. I saw that one, it has 22.000 reviews, 4.9 Stars average, I was wondering if the 128GB version would work with the Redmi Note 3 Pro.

FAT32 (never had NTFS)
has anyone tried with an exfat formatted card? I need mine on exfat, since I carry movies bigger than 4GB on it. Can anyone try if it works?
I'm pretty sure I had exfat but it asked me to format the card.

Afaik all MicroSD (also SDHC and SDXC) are supported up to 128GB. Maybe also above that, but thats what official supported.

I have accessed the SD Card with a SD Card reader in my windows computer. Then I deleted the exiting partition. Then I created a new one using FAT32. After this my Redmi 3 pro could access the sd card.
Hope this help you.

Exfat can work only on custom ROM along with custom kernel which has a built in support for this.'
Otherwise you will have to live with FAT32 on 64GB or above (just like I am)

Format the micro SD card to far32 if you are using stock kernel. Otherwise it will work fine on custom kernel.

sadly miui only supports fat32. tried exfat and it doesn't recognize the format.
use cm13 rom and custom kernel will get ntfs and exfat support!

You have tested a ext2/3/4 filesystem and it worked in the device w/MIUI ? I doubt xfs Or f2fs would work....
I might try ext3 later and report back

Hi,
CM offers to format the SD card as internal storage. I guess this is necessary to move apps to sd?
Can anybody tell me the pros and cons of that feature?
Any issues with TWRP and a internal sd format?
What about updating / flashing ROM?
Any other issues?
havent tried it, ofcourse it asked me too though, but i did not choose it,
you can go ahead and choose it ON AN EMPTY SD CARD and see what happens and you can probably tell me so that i can give a try:laugh: all the best:good:

Technically, that option formats your SD to be fused with your internal storage. So you wouldn't be needing to "move" the apps anymore. The pro is, you will have a larger internal memory, the cons are; 1. You can't insert your SD in other devices anymore. Only in your phone. 2. Some users reported that they can't access the storage after formatting.
Flashing and updating ROMs should work just fine.

Thanks! Do you know how this is technically realized? Is the sdcard just formatted with some unix file system and than mounted to /data instead of the internal volume?
Or is it really merged with the internal storage by LVM volume or something like that?

It is merged. For example we have 10GB of storage usable and you have a 16GB card, you will then have about 25GB of internal storage.

i don't recommend to use any SD card as internal Card unless Class 10 with capacity 16GB . otherwise keep it external =)

It is a Class 10 Card but with 64GB capacity. Why would the capacity make any difference in this setup?
Is the internal storage faster than a class 10 card?

He was more referring to the class. Because any class lower than 10 would give low performance.

I've done that 1 month ago, I don't remember exact CM13 version (cm-13.0-20161015-NIGHTLY-kiwi.zip or cm-13.0-20161022-NIGHTLY-kiwi.zip). I always update my CM13 by TWRP.
After sd card merge and encryption, TWRP didn't ask about encryption password.
Since, I've gone back : now, my sd card is external and I didn't crypt my phone again.

No error at startup, but TWRP (3.0.2) was unable to mount partitions (it seems quite normal because no password was asked to decrypt partitions). So it was impossible to update CM13, OpenGApps, etc...
space was not the issue the class was the main thing . and about ur issue i recommend that u do stock then root again !

It can support upto 2TB Micro sd card, figures doesnt matter at all, Only Class matters. Redmi Note 3 supports SDXC class which has range of 64 GB to 2TB. Companies dont advertise it because of licensing issues.
It's officially 32gb......There are 3 types of SD cards in micro SD family. SD,SDHC,SDXC....... formatting like Fat 16, fat32, exfat owned by Microsoft. All OEMs pay royality charges for using its patients.
SD, format: fat16, range:128mb to 2gb (I don't know)
SDHC, format:fat32, range:4gb to 32gb(file limit:4gb
SDXC, format:exfat, range:64gb to 2Tb. (No limit)
Fat32 support maximum file size of 4gb per file. Try coping a file which is bigger than 4gb, SD card with fat 32 fails to copy.....exfat doesn't have this limitation.
Redmi note 3 or any phone that is labelled as 32gb supported can support SDXC upto 2Tb micro SD card,if you format that card to fat32. Ya you have 4gb file limitation...low and mid range phones avoid exfat license fee with Microsoft.
Also remember windows default format tool won't give option like fat32 when formatting 64gb or above. You only get exfat and NTFS. You need to use third-party formatting tools and format 64+GB card as fat32 to use it in officially labelled as 32gb supported phones. So thats why top range htc, Samsung, Sony with SD support labels upto 2tb, bcz they pay exfat formart support royality to Microsoft..
Hope this sd card doubts are cleared
format it to ext4 via twrp and when offered to format via android system just ignore.
