[Q] only 10gb available on 16gb N7105 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How come there is only 10gb available on the N7105 what happened to the other 6GB?

Is been partitioned for use by your OS. You cannot use that part. Normal free storage would be exactly 10.36 GB.

16GB SD Card compatible?

I am thinking of getting this SanDisk Ultra® II SDHC 16GB High Performance Card found here:
http://apac.sandisk.com/Products/It...Ultra_II_SDHC_16GB_High_Performance_Card.aspx
How do I know if this is a cat4 or cat6 SD Card. Will I be able to fully utilize the 16GB SD card on the Elfin? Compatibility issues?
Anyway whats the largest capacity SD Card that the Elfin supports?
hi
i have kingston 4GB and is working in my HTC 3452
God please... you know what're writing
you need MICRO SD - no SD !
the biggest capacity of micro SDHC is 8gb and it's working fine
lol
Oh woops! So the Elfin uses microSD card lol...
In that case how does this SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSD card go with the Elfin. Is it a cat4 or cat 6 card?
http://apac.sandisk.com/Products/It...-SanDisk_Mobile_Ultra_microSDHC_8GB_Card.aspx
Or should I go for the Kingston one...,
http://www.ec.kingston.com/ecom/con...ack=http://www.kingston.com&ktcpartno=SD6/8GB
Does anyone know if the Kingston 16GB class4 microSD work with the Elfin?
I heard that the Elf can work with 4GB max, is the Elfin different? Are u sure the 8GB microSD is working correctly??
Yes, it works perfect. I am using 8GB for 6 months without problems. Theoretical, it can works with a 32GB card, but as jackolus said, there is only 8 GB on the market.
From what I've researched before purchasing the phone, it can support up to 32GB in MicroSD, the Elfin, not sure if the Elf does the same.
non-sdhc cards ended with 4gb
i don't know, if there are any special builded cards arround with 6gb or 8gb without sdhc...
up to 4gb there is only sdhc.
it was created to enable sized up to 32gb.
so every mashine, that can read sdch-standart should be enable to handle cards up to 32gb...in theory...
ELF should be enabled as well...
but i think, it's also a kind of politics.
it won't lasst more than 1 year from now on, then there will come a new sdhc2.0 standart or something else, and all the people must bye new mashines, phones and readers if they want to have space that's bigger than 32gb...
...i saw it in my crystal ball
Yeah Elf should support 32 G MicroSDHC cards.
I'm waiting for 16G to come out this month or next.
Running an 8G now in my ELF.
32G regular SDHC, not micro also came out this month.
I know someone using an 8 gig micro sdhc on their touch elf. I seriously considered buying one as I am only using a 4 gig micro sdhc however has recently decided to wiat for the 16 gig to come out. 16 gigs would be so much nicer on my phone then 8 gigs.
yes, 16gb micro sd cards work. http://www.mobymemory.com/micro-SD.asp
64GB

I believe that I have read somewher that 32 gig is the biggest for SDHC. Anything bigger will be a whole new class of card and will not be supported by our devices. By the time 64 gig is released, we will probably not even be using our current devices anyways. It takes to damn long for the bigger cards to come out.
I dont think we will see 64g till 2011
& thats when the new PS4 will be out too
for now enjoy the 16g card out in nov

I have Att Fuze
works great
Took longer then I was told, but it finally came in. Sandisk 16 gig class 2 Micro SDHC - I stuck in in to make sure it was real and sure enough - Just over 15 gig's registered on my device as free space. Now to fill it up. I am a very happy camper and it cost less then $100.00 Canadian - I am the first person in my area to get one - even most of the people at the local shops - "The Source", Almost every computer shop and electronic's store still say you can't get them that big, but I went in and showed them today - they couldn't believe it. Man, what are they doing working / running these shops if they don't / can't even keep up with technology. It's just too bad I had to wait this long. Oh well, I have it now and so far it works great.
Edit: I just uploaded my backup of my original four gig card and loaded it up on my device and guess what. It works great - Actually - Loading times are faster now for movies, Music and programs installed on the card. I am an even happier camper now.

[Q] Will there be a 32GB version of SGN2?

I am looking to buy a SGN2, but want a 32GB version.
The Samsung website suggests that larger memory model could be made available but perhaps on the "International" model.
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxynote/note2/spec.html?type=find
I looked at the websites of all the North American carriers which are compatible to each other: they are AT&T, Bell, Telus, and Rogers. I am only interested in these carriers (not Sprint, Verizon, etc). All of them only show the 16GB model to be offered.
Will any of [AT&T, Bell, Telus, and Rogers] eventually carrier the 32GB model?
If so, is it known (or reasonably speculated) when the 32GB be offered?
Not sure about US carriers but you can find it on pre-order now

If it's one thing I've learned about Samsung, when it comes to other models of their products with higher built-in memory, don't hold your breath, especially for carrier specific versions on top of that! You'll be blue in the face before it happens...
Just get a 64GB micro SD card and be happy with that, seriously. Plus, the Note 2 supports exFAT right out of the box, so as long as your SD card is formatted that way, you no longer have to worry about the 4GB file size limit of FAT32
Thanks for the comments.
I further noticed that the Galaxy Note 1 was offered only in 16gb flavour throughout the Canadian and American carriers, despite Samsung suggesting that 32gb was possible (evidentially never for the NA market). From that, I will speculate that the 16gb will be the only memory size for the Note 2. (I am guessing they are doing that to keep the price down on an already very costly device.)
By the time you are able to get your hands on a 32/64GB version, the S4 and GN3 will be arriving soon. Wished Samsung would be smart & make these models available sooner rather than later.

:good:
I totally agree with this.
I mean if the fruit company can make all 3 variants of their device available on day one, why can't Samsung?
I mean, yes we do get expandable storage, but having that 32 or 64 gig start is always nice. Not only that, but 16 gig feels so last generation. LOL
Ya, I wouldn't pay for the extra 16gb of storage. There's really no point, IMO. Considering, like someone else mentioned, it supports up to 64gb SD anyway.

Well, the point is that 16GB internal + 64GB external is 80GB, and if you want to store more than 80GB on your phone, the 16GB internal configuration will not allow that, while a 32GB or 64GB will allow more than 80GB total storage space.

How many people actually require that amount of local data storage on their phone these days? I mean, I have the 16x64 setup on mine, and I have never felt cramped for space, ever. Seriously, I have like several HD movies and TV series on my 64gb card, and even then I'm only taking up about half the capacity. As for all my 30+ gigs of music, that's all in the cloud with Google Play Music.

That implies that you don't listen to music very often, that you're usually on wifi, or that you have an unlimited data plan and charge often.
Seriously, the "cloud" doesn't work for many people when the cost of data is so high.
(On the other hand, I manage fine with a 16GB phone + 64GB microSD card - and no "cloud" usage.)
There's also a good chance that a 128GB microSD card would work, but just wasn't tested. I know that several older devices (that only claim to support 32GB cards) work fine with 64GB cards when formatted as FAT32.
Personally, I prefer removable storage to phone internal storage anyway. If the phone bricks, you can take the microSD card out and read it with another device.

I'm a mobile gamer & I like to be able to have tons of games on my phone. With higher storage, I'm able to store more games w/o uninstall the ones I'm not currently playing.
I bet Samsung would sell even more if they had 32/64GB version like the iFruit company. 32/64GB nand memory can't be all that expensive can it? Is there a parts shortage?

I listen to my music very often, wifi is ubiquitous, and though I do have unlimited data, I don't use so much of it that being on a tiered data plan would make any difference to me. The cloud is here to stay, whether people embrace it or not.
Sure there will always be a desire for more local storage, but that's why we have expandable memory and, in some cases, multiple cards.
At least this time around, with the new design, you no longer have to power down the device just to swap out a card
Remember, you can also get a micro-usb to usb adapter and plug in a flash drive as well for additional storage. Not ideal but you can load up on media this way.

I can say that I tried. While I was using a 16GB GSM gnex as my primary device, it forced me to use "the cloud" for music storage, and my data usage doubled to over 1GB/week (from about 400MB/week.) Being on a 3GB monthly tier, this was a slight issue.
64GB microSD is working on the Note 2 stock rom and it only costs $60 on amazon.

How do you format it exFAT? I got my 64 Sandisk from Amazon and want to load a couple HD flicks on it.

24 hours with the Note2, few annoyances.

1. It appears that the both the Galaxy S3 and the Note 2 suffer from the same annoyance regarding moving certain files to the SD card. (e.g. large game data).
I found the following link referencing App2ExtSD2 which will swap the memory card capacity with the internal storage, which will (in my case at least, swap the internal 16GB for my class10 MicroSD 32GB). Anyone try this yet or know if it should work in theory? I am rooted.

2. No wifi tether on root without paying carrier as of yet, it seems.
3. No Multiview!

128GB card for I9301I

Hi, I was thinking about expanding my device memory via micro sd card and of course i aimed for 64GB BUT then I asked myself "hey, how about 128GB? great idea!". So here's my question: have anyone tried 128GB card in our S3 Neo?
It wont work ... s3 neo only supports up to 64GB
I am using 64GB
Works perfectly

Galaxy S3 Neo supports up to 64GB MicroSD card :/
Quick tip: If you're going to buy your SD card online beware of fake cards !!!
I think it can handle it because my old phone only supported 32 GB and I inserted my 64 one and after a short time I could usw it normally so it should work too.

Buy in online store, test SD card and return it if it does not work. If you live in EU i think you have 14 days to contact, return and get refund from item.

Max SD Card for Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T810)

Dear all,
I am trying to establish the max SD card I can use in my Tablet. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 (Wi-Fi) bought in the UK.
The full specs state 128G samsungcom-uk-tablets-galaxy-tab-s2-9-7-t813-SM-T813NZKEBTU but that is simply not true. I am currently using a 256G Samsung Evo Plus card (
Funnily, the Samsung US website reports something different from the UK one (samsungcom-us-support-owners-product-galaxy-tab-s2-9-7-wi-fi), namely:"External Memory/microSD™ Capacity Up to 400GB with a microSD™, up to 128GB"
I would like to expand from 256 to 400 (amazonuk-gp-product-B074RNRM2B-ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza) but ideally I have some reassurance that it will actually work in my device.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Rob
also curious if anyone had luck with a 400gb card in their tab S2.
Not sure about that but I just fitted a samsung evo plus 512 G and it works perfectly
Hope it helps

Your thread title references the T810, but you asked about T813. Which one do you have?
Anyway, the max advertised SD card size id dependent on the file format that the android version with which the tablet ships with is compatible.
If you're running a custom rom of the same version as the latest stock that's available for either model, rest assured that your 400GB card is more than compatible

Assuming I'm not wrong, it supports MicroSDXC which is theoretically capable of 4TB. Obviously though no such cards exist yet. But I can say my stock and custom ROMs for my T-713 support my new 400GB card.
My wife's Galaxy Tab S2 8" is not rooted, same stock as from the factory. She has tons of pictures. Can anyone confirm a Sandisk 512 Extreme SD Micro card will work in these tablets?
I do wonder also if the units default to a certain speed where the more expensive and faster SD cards will not make a noticeable difference.
Really I am just looking for a 400gb or 512gb sd card that is reliable. She already has 248gb of pictures!
My Stock SM-T813 running Android 7.0 is currently using a Sandisk 400GB card with no issues.
