Santa was really good to me and brought me a 64 gig card for Christmas. . I have heard stories of people having problems with twrp and these cards but didn't pay much attention cause I never thought I would have such an awesome card.
Now I put it in my phone and all seens fine but how can I tell if twrp is able to access the whole card. ..

When you try to flash something from twrp it should show the external card as an option to choose where to download from. If it doesnt show it won't work with twrp. There is an app I use to convert to the correct format. If interested shoot me a pm to get the info. Hope this helps.

Well, the card will be blank at 1st use. Put some files on there, a ROM, some tunes, a pr0n, then navigate to the SD in TWRP. I have had 0 problems with The Note 1, S3, or the Note 2 using the same 64gb sdxc. Good luck !
Ok so if it sees the card than it can access all if it.. it wint just see it as 32 gig..it seems to be working. . I did a backup to it and restore

Hope I'm not hijacking the thread, but would anybody know why TiB would only recognize roughly half of the card size? My 32gb card shows in TiB as only roughly 12GB, but lists the Ex SD Card right underneath it as 32gb. Where's my other 20gb? (If this has been answered elsewhere, sorry. Search keywords I used turned up nothing obvious.)
I'm perplexed.

the 12GB that you're seeing is referring to the internal storage space on the phone (out of the 16GB). Your 32GB card is the Ext. SD. If that is showing 32GB then you're good and nothing is wrong.

I currently have a 2gB MicroSD card from my old SE X1i, and my Atrix will not detect the no matter what I try.
So I've decided to buy a 16gB or a 32gB card depending on the price - compatibility/performance ratio.
Suggest me a card to buy. gogogo!

You should read the thread then.... the title is about a fail, but not the rest.
Wouldn't you want to learn more about what fails? I guess not.
look for a card with a good class rating of 6 or 10 and comes with a good warranty 5+ years.
16gb seem to have a lower failure rate
i have this one, works fine

You hardly go wrong with Patriot or Corsair SD Cards, i've been through many memories from them and i've never had a single problem from them two.
Kingston is a bit of a gamble...but for the most part they make good stuff.

I dropped a class 4 16gb into mine, I just couldn't resist a $14 dollar sd card
where did you get that deal?
Bout 2 weeks ago I went into one of the local phone stores, they had an open box memory card with a $14 dollar price tag on it that said it was 4gb memory card. I didn't argue the price, cuz the card clearly said 16gb
So I inserted my 32GB class10 Patriot into my phone. It detected the card for 5secs, and then said card removed. I tried moving the card around, but nothing. Also tried rebooting the phone.
T_T
EDIT: Kept sliding it around and my phone detects it now, although the format option is greyed out.
EDIT2: no go. After putting the cover back on, it says card removed.
Now the title is as what it seems.I've been posting a few threads now trying to prevent the games on my play from stuttering,which is a big problem right now as the framerate keeps dropping every few seconds.I've been given advice on unlocking my bootloader,using a SanDisk Class 4 memory card and even flashing a ROM..
What I want to know is that for those who aren't experiencing this,and their gaming experience is fine so far,to tell me which is the problem again here,the stock SD Card that I got from SE or the stock ROM and kernel,which I've already removed lots of bloatware?
Really need your help guys,I'm having no luck at all for 5 months straight now.

The Sandisk Class 4 32GB is the tested solution, a Class 6 may work as well, I don't know if better and very few if any have tested it, but DO NOT get a Class 10 as that is worse (for gaming).

Does the sd card work in a computer via sd card reader? If not then your sd card probably got corrupted. Happened to me went out and bought a brand new one problem solved. But I lost everything on it.
Lesson learned: back up sd card on pc once a week at the end of the week.

Can you offer some more info like what Rom you are running etc?
My first suggestion is to do a full wipe and re-install the ROM. Most "quirky" errors are resolved by doing a full wipe and re-install.
Format the internal sd card and flash back to stock with odin. I had the same thing happen to me when I used that app2sd script

Some zip archive files as well as any cwm backups you may have will not show up on the internal storage reports. To get a good picture of your actual storage usage and available disk space you need disk storage analyzer app - I have seen a couple people here recommend one from the play store, I don't remember which it was though.
You can search for one or maybe someone who knows of a good one will pop in and say.

I'm sorry if this stuff seems elementary, but I came from a iPhone and I did mod and jailbreak and all that to it so I know my way around apple products but this phone has been a little bit of a learning curve. I just got sick of apples subpar hardware... So I moved to android.

Ok I can accept that. But what is really the free space? It shows 12.05gb of space. I know the OS and other system type stuff is taking the other 4gb that would total the 16 of the phone. But even the math of the doesn't add up in settings/storage.

The system partitions aren't represented in the storage manager. Reason being: you can't change it. It's only showing what you have available for apps and your own files.

IF i get it, it will definitely be the 16 gb version...i think this question is pretty obvious...16gb if you need the space 8 if you dont
and if you get 8 you obviously dont save things on your phone or you use cloud
P.S. i have the GSM Nexus and ive gotten somewhat used to 16gb...but i still don't like the transition to cloud storage thing..i have to keep such a close eye on what i save and what i dont
I'm getting the 16GB version. The cloud seems well and good, but personally I think it's still in it's infancy stage. Better implementations are sure to come in the near future, but until then I'm good with the 16GB. 8GB just doesn't seem like a lot of space @[email protected]

There are at least a dozen N4 threads. I really hope the mods start to do something to keep it relevant to the GNex soon.
Still torn. I've only used about 3.5GB of storage on my GNex so 8GB seems like it will be plenty. But for $50 I could get 16GB for the extra headroom.
I'll decide when I'm going through the checkout process on the 13th I suppose. :laugh:

I'll be amazed if the 16GB model gets sold out immediately (or at all). It's not like the iPhone. There are nowhere near enough people who know/care enough about the Nexus line to order one the second they are available for purchase.
I'll probably end up getting an n4 at some point when my gnex breaks.
Judging from the below screen shot, I could get by barely with 8 gigs, but would most def opt for the 16 gig.
