Galaxy S4 No Support For NTFS Format? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

I put my NTFS formatted 32gb SD card inside my Galaxy S4 but a message popped up and it prompted me to reformat my SD card to FAT32. Is there any way to get NTFS support for this device?

Custom kernel, sorry. Samsung (and frankly no other manufacturers) did not include it in their kernel.

No one has NTFS support other than rooted with custom kernel. And not all custom kernels. Fat32 is just fine. No worries. ExFat good too.

I second exFat, works perfectly. NTFS is a microsoft thing, so i believe thats why Samsung doesn't include it from the start.

I have a Galaxy S3. I rooted it, installed Paragon NTFS & HFS+ mounter. Now my 64Gb Sd card formated with ntfs works like a charm.
(I needed it for an oruxmap file size 6GB)

Just to update you guys, padfone infinity does have ntfs support out of the box.
Guess this will up the game.

Not surprising since their Transformer tablet has NTFS support.
Look into faux's kernel for ntfs support.

Neither Paragon NTFS or NTFS Mounter are working on my ATT S4 running Omega ROM. Any other options out there?

exFat is also Microsoft. My vote goes to FAT32

Paragon NTFS also works on my Sprint Samsung S4. I mounted a portable usb drive and it looks like there was enough power supplied for the drive to spin up.

Ext SD Card to Internal SD Card

Just wanted to let people know in case they were interested. The extsd 2 internal sd card mod works on the T-Mobile Note 2. I flashed Perseus Kernel and then the mod found here. It's really nice if you have the 64gb Sandisk that was on sale at amazon

I went ahead and tried it, I used the fat32 version and it worked fine, but i did lose service. I did not have internet nor calling service. How did you get it to work?

I didn't lose service at all. All I did was use the perseus kernel and the exfat version. Did you flash the right one? There is a stock kernel version and a custom kernel version. I made sure to use the custom kernel exfat. If you are using a stock kernel please use the stock kernel one. That is the only thing I can think of.
Good info, but best in the General Section, Moved and Thank You.
Does this make it so the OS is on the Sd card? If so, does it run slower? Sorry, I'm just not sure what this does. I did buy the 64gb sd and I would love to put more than 10 gigs of apps on here. Is there any downside to doing this?
hmm
I tried pretty much every mod on there, stock and custom, and still no service. I did do a restore with every try, so it would be fresh. I still get no service.
I'm using a rooted stock note ii from t-mobile. no new rom or anything. Maybe that's why?

Sorry to revive an dead thread, but I'm interested in how this has turned out. Do you notice any issues since doing this, especially with HD video recording or Burst shot camera pictures? I think it mandates that burst shot is placed on the internal because of speed issues.
Here is the real thread for this mod and it works great without any problems.

[Q] Sandisk 64gb Micro Sd on Jedi Rom

Can anyone explain to me why my new 64gb class 10 micro sd from sandisk is not recognized by my N2 on the Jedi 6.1.2 rom with the SaberKernel? I'm unfamiliar with the formats that are recognized by which kernels and if this one is compatible or not. Thanks for the help in advance.
Just flash another kernel. Perseus or note2core will work for you.

Just realized that there is actually two versions of the 64g class 10 micro sd from sandisk. A Mobile device version and also a camera version. I lost my original packaging so I'm not sure which one I was gifted and didn't pay attention to what it was when I was opening it. Can this one still be used?

As Killerdvd reponded you need to try another Kernal. Saber kernal does not support 64gb SD cards as indictated in the op for the Jedi ROM. Perseus kernal does support 64gb sd cards.

If you read the OP on the Jedi thread you will have your answer, the FAQ section says:

Why cant i see my 64GB (exfat) SD card?
You are apparently using SaberKernel_001 which does not yet support exfat. Please Flash New Kernel

This tends to be more a kernel issue than anything else - though truth be told I know little on the nuances of using the mighty 64GB sd card That being said - what kernel are you using? Perhaps that could help someone more knowledgeable in offering you assistance.

Nice - and fwiw kernels can be a bit independent of rom outside of major os differences (e.g. ics vs. jb, aosp vs. TW) - I don't think I've heard of any 4.1.x TW kernel not working at all for all users of a particular TW rom for T889 users anyway. My scope is limited though so I could very well be wrong on that (though I know that one works fine on Tweaked).

USB OTG

Hi Guys, I recently Purchased a USB OTG cable for my galaxt s4 Running Goosh v1.0 and Deviant Kernel.
My phone recognizes the cable when plugged in, but doesn't recognize my flash drive or anything else plugged to it, So my question is that do I need a Rom that supports it, a kernel or what. I have also downloaded usb otg helper from the play store and it says device not found..And also what format does the Flash Drive have to be in .??
I remember back with my sensation it was kernel related. It works with wicked v4 for sure. As far as the flash idk... All my flash drives have been recognized without me having to format.

Mines is a 32gb Flash Drive, I have a feeling the storage capacity is why it's not working.
Format it to FAT32, NTFS doesn't work with Stock Samsung.
Try StickMount

Are you rooted?
On my S4 with the VirginROM v2 it works. Tried it with a 16gb stick.
Most of these cables are sold have a quality that leaves a lot to be desired. When I ordered I got them for $3 each so i ordered 5 so I knew one atleast would work :laugh:

I currently Have USB OTG and that doesn't recognize it either.
Mind giving me a link to that NTFS Mount app, I have a feeling I have probably tried it as well, tried every OTG app available in the app store.

What storage Capacity though
I was able to mount my 8 GB USB stick with the stock rom and stock kernel. I used an old 5 in 1 MHL connection kit that I bought for my Galaxy Nexus. It has full size USB for OTG and it worked fine. Stick is formatted in FAT32.
Thanks you guys.. I was able to get it to work, it was just a bad flash drive

128GB SD card not being recognized -- help!

To the Community --
I modded my case and have one of these gizmos:
http://dx.com/p/sd-to-microsd-transf...r-module-27001
and I just got this 128GB SD card and formatted it to Fat32
http://www.amazon.com/PNY-Class-Spee...28+gb+sdxc+pny
but it's not being recognized by Saber kernel on Jedi X-17 or CyanogenMod 3.0.64 kernel on CM 10.2.
Please help!
Thanks in advance.
Try perseus kernel?

I don't think any kernel/rom can Handel more than 64gb. And those have issues as well
Im using the same setup but a Kingston 128gb card. Jedi x17 as well. Go read the thread in the accessories forum. I used a specific program on a pc to format to fat 32. That may be the problem.
I had a hell of a time getting any program to format my kingston to fat32.

Last night I discovered the ribbon part of the adapter was torn.
D'oh!
:silly:
Sorry to have wasted your time. (Of course, if I have problems after I get my new adapter, then we'll talk).
I'll let you know how the new adapter works out...
