SGS3 & 32gb or 64gb sdcard? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Will the SGS3 read a 64gb sdcard or not?
I've heard both ways that it will and it won't. Anybody know for sure?
Thanks

I have a 64GB card in my phone. It came formatted as exFAT. It would fine except that the recoveries can not access the card. If that was a problem for me I could reformat it as FAT32.

If you format it to fat32 I believe, then it will. Correct me if I'm wrong

Micro SD cards

I'm looking to get a 32gb SD card and was wondering if Transcend was a good brand. Or if I should just get a Sandisk. Has anyone used Transcend before?

Never tried them.
Just read reviews on them.
As far as I can tell, its not a bad call... but I see where others say it's slow.
I'll always recommend SanDisk, but that's because I know they are a trusted brand.

I ended up just getting a PNY 16gb from best buy. It was on sale and they didn't have the transcend at that particular store.

Why we cant use 64GB sdcard?

Hey, im wondering why at the Xplay specs is "Space: 8GB - 32GB max".. 32 and 64GB cards are same seriously, i mean not by spave but how its big. Why we cant use 64GB sdcards, or we can? Im thinking about buying it but no idea if it will work.

The real question should be "why do i need 64GB for a mobile phone?"

If the card is formatted as FAT32, you shouldn't have any problems with it.
The 32GB cards are SDHC, 64GB+ cards are SDXC. It's a different format so 32GB and 64GB cards are not the same. The Xperia Play officially supports SDHC so that is why the specs say that it is up to 32GB. Saying that a lot of SDHC devices (especially later ones) are compatible with the SDXC format. I haven't tried it myself but I've seen plenty of other people saying that 64GB cards are working with their Xperia Play so you should be fine.

Anybody going to post one that works on there play, prefrably amazon?
the reason why is, i have brought a 32GB in the past as mentioned and it didn't work so that was money wasted then i went for the class 4 same as the 8GB that came with the phone and it worked.

In another thread Nemokun said his Sandisk 64GB card worked. I imagine it's the ultra version but you could drop him a PM and ask him.

microsd speed cap?

I have tested the read/write speeds using sd tools with 3 different sd cards: 4gb class 4 sandisk, 16gb class 10 samsung, and 32gb sandisk uhs1. It seems that each card doesnt exceed 4mb/s write and 8mb/s read speeds on my e4gt on calkulin gb rom 3.0. When these cards are tested on my pc, i experience the correct speed ratings.
Is there a cap that is on the e4gt that i need to modify? I played with the cache sizes 128 2048 3072 and 4096, very minimal changes and all tend to fall in the same speed ranges stated above.
I tried switching different kernels but still had no luck. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Could it possibly be Calkulins GB 3.0 rom? I would hate to flash another rom just for trial and error if someone can confirm it's not the rom.
Running cm9 beta got 4mb/9mb. Card is an older 4gb sdhc sandisk

Its not the card or the kernel, i have confirmed that.
Its either the microsd slot, rom, or ???? Is anyone on Calkulin GB 3.0 rom having any issues?

[Q] Will a 64gb microsd work on Vanilla Rootbox?

The threads on both dev forms are locked. I know its a stupid question.......
Will a 64gb micro sd extreme work on it?
If so, do i have to do anything special for it to read?
I think you need to format the sd card to fat32. If you do, you can use the sd card on any of the roms, I think.
