I use jedi rom and love that it has boot logo changing option. While saber doesn't work with my sd (that's why I don't use it) it had the option that I want from perseus. Is there any way I can make it so it changes the boot logo or does the developer even have that option for the kernel. Please let me know if I have a way to do it or have to wait for the developer to add the feature?

format your card to fat32 instead of exfat, and then you can do anything you want

But doesn't that have a 4 gig limit per file and is there anyway I could format it back to exfat?

what kind of files do you plan on putting on your phone that are bigger than 4 gigs?
and yes, you can always format it back to exfat if you feel the need

Torrented movies and season of shows. Also do you know of any specific way to format it that is safe? I've looked around but the answer is always different. I just want a simple process.

you could always transcode the movies to mp4 which would make a smaller file..
Is it really that important to watch hd movies on a 5 inch screen?
I guess you have to decide what is more important; the ability to use the card to flash and use any rom properly, or watching a movie on a phone..I guess you have to choose, or, be stuck using only certain rom/kernel combinations
Easiest way to format is either on your phone, or on your home pc, or your camera if it uses a sd card

Well if I did want to format, I have a 64GB Exfat card so what would be my options through Pc. I don't believe I can through my phone but just curious how I would format. Thanks

I had your issue when I tried Jedi ROM. I also had an SD card that was exFAT. I just copied everything to my computer, then formatted the card in FAT32, then copied everything back onto the card. There are programs like FAT32Formatter that can format the card.

So i bought a 16 gb class 4 SD card for my galaxy s3. My old 4 gb SD card that I replaced worked great with no fail. This new card however, sometime unmount and remount. Sometime it lets me write to it other time I can only read what I already have on there from it. This is a problem because when I set the sd card as all my media defaults sometime message comes up saying it failed to write to sd card so it changed back to phone memory.....
Anyone know if this is a bad card or if there is anyway I can set things up to make the card work. Thanks ! I have 15 days to replace it.
edit- I tried to look for other related sd issue, but it seems to only be talking about rooted phones. I dont have root and this is my first android so I'm not comfortable going the rooting route just yet.
Have you reformatted the card?

Which do you recommend. Exfat/ fat32 or Ntfs??
I've also had this issue but my fone is rooted. I've had to reformat it at least once a week. I will go to save music or a picture to it and it will say the ext sd card isn't accessible and when I go check it with root explorer instead of folder titled music It will be £usic or something crazy. Then the card will start switching to r/o instead of r/w.
Edit: it meaning the external sd card.

I would go with exfat. And try to format it from the phone not the computer.
If you still have problems try fat32.

Have you tried to plug the phone in to your PC with the card mounted in the phone to see if it will mount as storage? You can also If you have an adapter microSD to SDcard and a sdcard slot on a PC or know someone who does try and read it from a PC. Have you tried to put it back in the skyrocket and see if you still get the error? GL

You can always buy an sd card, you can add 64gb. At least we have an option to add an sd card. If you need more space there's options.

And if you get a usb OTG cable, you can add a flash drive to add even more storage! I got a 64gb card in the phone and another 64gb flash drive which I've loaded with music and videos.

I was looking for an easy way to do this because I am lazy. Saw scripts and stuff but that seemed like work.I tried this, but I am not certain it works, at least not well. I ran it, and it says it ran successfully, but the device memory didn't change at all. Same amount taken up by applications, same available space over all.
However, I did try to move the apps back and forth again to test this, so maybe it moved once, but then refused to move any more. Not sure...
Do I have to have a rooted phone in order to move stuff to my sd card? This is insane that u can't move apps or music to an sd card. WHY would Samsung do that?

They are probably not transferring because they don't run properly from the external sd. There's plenty of room for apps in the internal.

So I've used this to resize the 10Gb and use the unallocated space. All was well, formatted to fat32 as per usual. Now windows won't pick it up, and the program classifies it as a bad disc This is worse then before because I can't even use it What do I do now?

Did you try formating the sd card on sd card adapter?
Unfortunately the card no longer shows in windows or any other SD card tool but the partition one and I can't do anything in that anymore as the options are all blanked out as its a bad disk

Connect your sd via adapter and create one big partition and set it as active. That should do it

Just wanted some advice on formating my card to FAT32. My card is 32gb, about 22gb is being used. To format my card (which I assume will wipe it clean), what's the best way (and quickest) to transfer all of its current data to another location before formatting? And what do you recommend using (application) to format it?
I use guiformat.exe but backup before doing so

allocation unit size, change that to 32768? and do I uncheck "quick format"?
I don't know about the quickest, but basically, you can connect the GN2 to your computer and just copy and paste the material to a folder, say on the desktop. It will take a few hours to complete. I would suggest doing it when you go to bed.
To format, you may be able to do it in Windows 7. I don't know if Windows still has the max format armount of 16GBs. If so, just download and butn the ISO for Ubuntu. Run the live CD. You can format the SD to FAT32.
On a side note, remember, on FAT32, the maximum file size it can use is 4GB.
Use Sdformatter … Copy your files to another location first

That's highly highly unlikely that a 32GB card comes FAT(16) from the factory nowadays. If it did, then shame on the brand.
