Hey every1, for some reason the Sandisk 64GB microSD card won't mount using TWRP. When i try to mount the the externel sd it won't check the box. I can access it fine when I connect using the usb. Any suggestions?
Works fine with the 32GB card... Weird???

yup fat32
Thanks for your reply!
But, I don't have the option for "fat32", I do have the option, "NTFS, and exFAT"
I've even tried to formatting through phone, still didn't work.

Honestly TRWP hasn't been very stable on the Note II imo and experience, Try CWM recovery and see if it works. I used an adapter, plugged it into my pc and when I chose to format I had the option for fat32, I am on Windows 7, 64 bit.

I tried this but, it did not work. Using an SD card reader, I still do not get the option to format to Fat32. Anyone have another suggestion? Also, CWM has the same issues. I cannot do a nano backup to the card.

For the life of me I can't get it to work. I have TWRP version 2.3.3.2, I just installed it straight from Goo Manager (as suggested on TWRP's website today). I have a 64gb Sandisk card, Class 10, exFAT (because I require to record LONG videos that go over the 4gb limit).
TWRP recovery can't see my external SD card, it won't mount it at all.

SOLVED!! Just that fast! Thank GOD.
So here's what happened to me - I went to TWRP's website and THEY suggested on their site to install TWRP using Goo Manager because it was the "preferred" method. I obeyed. No dice. TWRP did install and I was able to successfully get the version that was right for my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 phone, but the only thing that was wrong was that I could not mount my SD card in TWRP recovery.
Right on that same page on TWRP's site where they suggested to use Goo Manager, right on the same page, they had other options for installing TWRP, ODIN being one of them - and I loooove me some ODIN. So I went that route and decided to install TWRP through ODIN on top of the TWRP that I already had.
VOILA! ......as soon as I booted into TWRP I could see that my SD card was mounted PERFECTLY. exFAT, micro sdxc card, SanDisk, Class 10, no issue.
The fact that it's now mounted will permit me to test if I can make a backup straight to the card and restore from it, which is what I wanted to achieve this whole time.
For those that installed TWRP just fine and it SEEMS like it installed just fine and you ARE ABLE to make a successful backup to the internal SD card....that doesn't necessarily mean it was a good install especially if you can't mount your external SD card. Just install it again through ODIN and call it a day.
Cheers, my brethren.

I've heard some people had a problem after flashing CM10 with backups done with ROM manager. They said deleting the backups solved it, which doesn't really make sense if you've already formatted the card on your computer, but maybe it'll lead you in the right direction.

What format are you running? I think it has a problem with exFAT format.
Running exfat, will try reformatting to NTFS and will get back to you

Try FAT32. It worked for me. It does say ready to be removed in your storage settings but you should also be able to see the external SD card. Use Solid Explorer and see if you can see the external SD.
Hey guys, I did a quick search and couldn't find an answer. Basically, I'm having trouble with TWRP -- it won't mount/recognize my SD card at all. All the advice I've seen so far is to format the microSD card as fat32. Unfortunately, this fix doesn't work for me, as my SD is already formatted to fat32.
Are there any other alternate options?
Thanks!
EDIT: this is on TWRP 2.3.2.3
you probably need to update TWRP. If you rooted using the Galaxy Note 2 tool kit, it's a slightly older version. Here's the thread on TWRP, which you can find the latest version.
I think i'm on the newest version. I updated it a couple days ago using goo manager to 2.3.2.3, which seems to be the newest one
that would be the newest. I had that problem till I updated. My SDXC card is formatted in NTSF. Maybe, you need to reformat it in your phone.
yea, I'll try that. wish me luck

I'll check in a little bit phone is dead and cycling battery. But my 32gb showed up. Are you sure you're not changing it to show external storage
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
you need to go into advance menu, file manager. Then you need to look externalSDCard directory or similar name. That's your SDXC card. Don't use that external/internal option in one of the other menus.
This tends to be case in some of the file manager apps as well such as ES File Explorer.
ok, so, it seems it's not under external_sdcard, but under sdcard. So I guess to access the sdcard i have to go through that. Thanks for the help
Is there any way I can change the default backup location for TWRP to use the SD card? I can't backup to internal storage since I don't have enough space
I had a similar issue with this 2 days ago. ..Could not mount the 64gig sd card in trwp but works fine on the phone. ..I updated to the newest twrp yesterday and that resolve the issue. ..

Tapping on "use external SD" just has it snap back to "use internal storage" and the error message "unable to mount '/external_sdcard'" comes up. So no, it's not that I'm blind.
I have scandisk class 10 SD card 64 GB.
its formatted using the note 8 device (exFAT).
Whenever I try to download a file or copy a file in note 8 to the SD. It fails and reboots my device. knowing that reading from the SD is perfect. I can play music and movies from SD with no issues.
the only way I can transfer files to the SD if I connect the SD to the PC directly.
I am not sure if this is an issue with Note 8 or SD. please help!

I'm afraid nothing beyond painfully obvious ones - trying with another similar card, trying the card on any other device supporting exfat (if ok, this would provide definitive proof that card is ok), trying on freshly installed latest ROM, trying with the same card formatted in fat32.

It seems like this is the last resort. I will reformat my note 8 and try again. I also forgot to mention, that few weeks ago I was able to transfer one 800 mb file but this stopped happening. So it seems like there is not enough memory to transfer although I tried clearing the memory.
I will let you know if this reformatting the note 8 will fix the problem.

I've had this problem multiple times with multiple Samsung phones. At this point, I'm pretty sure it's the hardware of the phone, not your SD card, ROM, or anything else. I've went through many SD cards thinking they were defective when they were not.

What you could try (even though I don't know how Android can handle this) is to create two partitions with each 32gb on your 64gb sdcard and see whether this works or not. Other than that I don't have too many ideas left :/

you can either do it with windows (Start > Control Panel > System and Maintenance > Administrative Tools > Create and Format Hard Disk Partitions > Disk Management) or with a tool like paragon partition manager (isn't free so you'd have to search for a freeware alternative) and there you shrink your 64gb fat 32 partition to a 32gb fat32 partition and create a new partition on the remaining 32gb of unallocated space also with fat32.
your pc will recognize your sdcard as if there were two. Now that i think of it, I really am not sure whether android will recognize your 64gb or better both 32gb partitions on your phone or if Android will say that you sdcard is corrupted.
If you do that and android suggests to format your sdcard DON'T DO IT ON ANDROID. I got myself some fried sdcards there. So if it doesn't work out you can delete one of the 32gb partitions and enlarge the other again to 64gb but do that from your pc.
You'll need a card reader or usb adapter or something. It won't work with the sdcard inserted in your phone as Android now uses mtp rather than ums and you can't perform those tasks from windows with mtp.

you can either do it with windows (Start > Control Panel > System and Maintenance > Administrative Tools > Create and Format Hard Disk Partitions > Disk Management) or with a tool like paragon partition manager (isn't free so you'd have to search for a freeware alternative) and there you shrink your 64gb fat 32 partition to a 32gb fat32 partition and create a new partition on the remaining 32gb of unallocated space also with fat32.
your pc will recognize your sdcard as if there were two. Now that i think of it, I really am not sure whether android will recognize your 64gb or better both 32gb partitions on your phone or if Android will say that you sdcard is corrupted.
If you do that and android suggests to format your sdcard DON'T DO IT ON ANDROID. I got myself some fried sdcards there. So if it doesn't work out you can delete one of the 32gb partitions and enlarge the other again to 64gb but do that from your pc.

Hmm ill give it a try later. Right now im guessing that my recovery does not support the sdcard. Im currently on CWM TOUCH 6.0.3.1. And looking for a rom with good battery life.
Guys I truly don't mean to be a stick in the mud about this, but you can search XDA and Google about this issue. A lot of people are having this exact same issue. That's why I said a 64 may or may not work with other brands, but the Samsung cards seem to always work like their suppose to (given they aren't defective). There are a few other threads about this on the forums as well. If you do by chance get it working please do share, and perhaps PM a mod and see if you can post a guide on it.
Note 2 has problems with some 64Gb card due to (here: my speculation) bad power supply and stabilization.
Kingston 64/10 makes my Note 2 unhappy.
Sandisk 64/U1 more or less stable with FAT32 but makes instability issues with exFAT.
Sandisk 32/10 and Kingston 32/10 are fully OK with FAT32.

I use saber kernel, I'm also n7105.
I presume you didn't just get a bad download of the rom, did you check it with md5?
I'm just throwing suggestions out there btw.

Hmm i also on saber kernel. Im guessing its because my note 2 is not happy with 64GB sdcards. Maybe i should get a 32 one.

I'm running Vision X rom and I just tried using SanDisk 32 and 64 GB cards and neither one is being recognized in the phone. Neither my music app (PlayerPro) not ES File Explorer sees the card when I insert it. I have tried formatting the card as FAT32, exFAT and NTFS. Still no luck.
Does any one has any suggestion?

Try this fix, it should work. (it worked for me)

Flash using twrp/cwm recovery.
Good luck!

Thanks for the info. I just tried it and still nothing :'(
I've tried all possible fixes including changing the ROM but still nothing. I'm beginning to think that the card slot itself might be faulty as I've never tried it before. Is it possible to check for that? If so, how? I've already tried two different cards and no luck.
i actually had the EXACT same issue recently. i had to wipe data cache and dalvik 4x, reflash, rewipe 3 more times, then reboot. worked for me. Im running tweaked on my N3. try this, let us know

Tried the above mentioned procedure and reflashed Vision X rom but still no luck. What brand card did you use? I'm using SanDisk Ultra (32 and 64).
I also flashed the zip that Misterjunky mentioned earlier but still the same :crying:
Edit:Just test the card in wife's S3 and it picked up the card instantly. So it is definitely not the card. Either my card read messed up or there is something else wrong.

I'm using a SanDisk ultra 64gb. I actually have my own thread on the topic. May be a slight coding error in rom. Let me guess. Only thing that reads and accesses card is recovery mode?

How do I check that in recovery? I don't see an option for external SD. I'm using Philz Touch 6 CWM.

Of your card's not totally screwed, you should be able to access the files

Don't see any option fo sdcard1. The only option os "Choose zip zip from /sdcard" . When I select that, it shows my internal storage.

Try going into settings, unmount sd, after it says safe to remove, reboot normally. Let cycle and scan. Then reboot into recovery

In setting it does not even see the SD card. It says 'insert SD".
Edit: I just flashed TWRP recovery and it has option for micro SD but when I try to mount it nothing happens either. So I'm leaning towards the fact that the card reader might be toast :'(

Have you tried inserting card into the computer with a USB reader? Does windows recognize it?
---------- Post added at 06:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 AM ----------
There actually is an issue with the note 3 and SanDisk ultra sd cards. Try terminal emulator to remount card? Forget the commands, but it may help

Yep, card works perfectly fine in Windows and under two different cameras (with adapter).
I just cleared everything again and flashed Gummy ASOP rom, still no SD card :'(. The last thing to do is to order a new microSD card and try it out but at this point I have little hope of it working.

Final test. Flash back to stock unrooted. Check to see if it reads then. Hopefully, at same time, you can restore 0x0 on Knox. Warranty return if it doesn't read
