SanDisk 64GB on Galaxy Note 2 PA 3.65 ROM - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

yes..the problem is that neither CM nor AOPK..i mean the Roms that are based on unofficial 4.2.2 firmware dont recognize your exfat formatted card...search google for a windows program called GUI Format..it formats every volume which are even greater than 32gb to fat32.
or use this link http://en.softonic.com/s/gui-format-fat32-download.
format your card to fat32 and report back.
if i helped you plz hit the thanks button.
have a nice day.

[Q] Custom Roms and 64gb cards

Safe to assume that all custom Roms will not read a 64gb card if formatted in ex fat?
And Roms based on stock should be ok?
I believe that statement is true. If you replace rom with kernel..
To be safe.. Exfat for stock, fat32 for everything else.
Not saying Exfat won't work with custom kernel.. But the few I have tried didn't..
Also.. Maybe cwm also has problems with Exfat.. Not sure..

Ok thanks.
Yeah cwm doesn't see the card at all. The issue I have with fat 32 is the file size limit. I would prefer not having to re convert videos so that I can put them on my phone. Then again I could probably learn to live with it

[Q] exFAT question

Hi,
I was previously using XquiziT xD v34 and somehow got the exFAT format to be recognized by the phone. I upgraded to v37 and now the phone rejects the format and forces it to unmount. Is this suppose to happen or did I do something wrong regarding the flashing process? I use Windows 7's formatting tool and I use a 32gb micro SD by Team. Any info regarding this matter would be great Thanks!!
Did you flash a custom kernel. I dont think any of them support exFat so you'd be stuck with stock kernels if im right on that.

The kernal provide by the rom is stock according to the Aroma selection. I'm not sure if superwipe changed anything but the rom would try to read the SD card then a message prompting for safe removal appears. I had to format the card back to FAT32 for it to recognize. I am using Nova Launcher which was the same launcher in v34. I am considering downgrading to v34 to see if it's the fault of the new version.

Using CM 10.1 based ROM - ExtSdCard no longer working

Hello all.
Got my Note 2, a couple of months back. Beast of a phone.
Rooted, and installed Team Asylum CM10.1 ROM [01-29-13]. Ever since installing that ROM, the external SD card used to get unmounted when i locked the phone, and re-mounted everytime I unlocked it. I thought that was how the ROM worked, until recently when the External SD card stopped working. Neither the CWM Recovery nor the ROM recognize the card anymore.
Lost my Nandroid backup too, since it was in the external SD card. But I'm hoping that if it ever comes to it, I'll be able to install Stock ROM again through Odin.
Any suggestions, guys?
Thanks in advance.
Cm10.1 doesn't support exfat format it to fat 32 via pc.

64GB Micro SD card issues, pls read

I had a recovery of my stock rom installed, and inserted a BRAND NEW (Bought it 30 minutes ago) 64GB SanDisk MicroSDXC card, bought from Bestbuy factory sealed. with the sdcard installed I recovered to my CM10.1 install and the SDcard does not work, it says "mount sdcard" but nothing happens when I click it. What am I doing wrong?

Should be in Q and A but to answer you only the stock touch wiz kernel and perseus support the 64gb cards....youd need to format it to 32gb or use a 32gb on cm10 if I am correct.

Not true. You should have no problem running a 64gb card on an AOSP rom as long as it is formatted to fat32. I am currently running a 64gb sandisk card and my current rom is liquidsmooth but have also used it on carbon, rootbox, paranoid as well as a few touchwiz based roms with no issues. Just make sure you format the card to fat32 and you should be fine.

No support for exfat, so you'll have to format to fat 32, which defeats the purpose of a high capacity card.
(can't store files bigger then 4gb aka HD rips)
Although there are some hacks on this board that may work.

Xfat from my understanding only works on stock kernel and persus from what I remember reading unless the dev added the support so like it was mentioned formatting it to fat32 on that size card defeats that cards purpose....I should have been clearer since the OP said it doesn't work on cm10 but did on his gfs phone that seemed like why to me. :thumbup:

So, can we expect ex fat support on cm10.1 anytime soon?
sd card issues with aosp/cm roms....................that's why I stay away from those roms in that thread...........those roms look bad-ass, but not worth sd card issues, i.e. reformatting to fat32 and such..........not worth it.
I wouldn't get anything over 32gigs...unless you plan on downloading a bunch of pics, games, videos and apps..my 16gig is perfect for me.
The above poster is correct if you want to run aosp or cm gotta format to fat32..
And yes some kernels other then stick and Perseus have issues reading exfat.
But there isn't a Damn thing wing with running perseus they are dope.

Which format do you use for 64 gb SD

Hi.! Just wanted to know I bought sandisk 64gb ultra class 10 . Exfat seem slow n take more boot time n low speed too ..then I formatted it using Ubuntu last night n restored my data kaboom ...its snappy like my other Sandisk 32gb ultra class 10 ...and 2nd it works with any custom recovery like Philz or TWRP without a glitch....though TWRP claims it support exfat SD but ...some how It seem not sure.
2nd currect me if im wrong about ...does philz recovery support exfat .?..for NOTE 2 ? And philz does not though if currect...it do for other phones ..though
Tip
Always use fat32 with 64 gb class 10 and use anything else windows tools to format sd (seems windows got some flaws with mico sd) eg use only mac or lunix (Ubuntu) you never bump in any problems ...like others on blog . :thumbup:

exFAT. You'll need to flash a recovery that states it's compatible with exFAT. I was using a CWM Recovery that worked just fine with exFAT and was on Cyanogenmod 10.1

Thats what I said ....read up ...TWRP say it support but ....it really can not detect exfat Sd at all...and other CWM is not safe sds bug ...many people landed up with sds or dead 64gb sd cards ....
And I do not thin CM 10 support exfat on note 2 either I was on it too but now on Waman v 3.7 with adam kernel...

Fat32 is limited to 4GB per file so I use exFAT. It works like a charm even with recovery (philz).

You cannot copy file larger then 4 GB to Fat32 file system. Doesn't matter what tool you are using. This is Fat32 limitation.
In case of philz and exFAT I'm sure that this combination works fine. I have used philz and exFAT on s3 and now I'm using it on n2.

Ntfs, way better than exfat.

For sure both s3 and n2 are supporting exfat and for sure philz recovery is working with it. On n2 I'm using it every day. On S3 i have tried few months ago.

I wish...ntfs support was there but on mac users its problem they can read only not write ...and windows ignore any fat 32 partion which is greater then limit ...so sandisk choosen exfat for flash media storage.
And on Android its sucks with exfat with low speed +boot time mount with 64gb class 10...not good enough....nor Ntfs support. ..only on custom kernels n recoverys ...
So best option is to format it with fat32 with non windows os...... for better mount time n speeds ..

For me Fat32 is unusable because of its limitations.
I don't have any issues with exfat. Boot time is the same for card formatted with exfat (64gb SanDisk) and for fat32 (32gb adata), just tried it. For every day use like watching and recording movies, installing roms, copying files it's speed is just fine but I admit that I have never compared speeds between different file systems.
If you have root you can try paragon ntfs mounter. It can mount ntfs in rw but it won't be supported by recovery.

I'm sure that Note2 with Philz recovery is working fine with exfat. Now I'm using latest version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103 but i have used it with older versions too.
Edit :
Maybe your file system was damaged. If you have time try to reformat your card using exfat and try again.

Even if recoveries don't support exFAT, I'll use it. FAT32 and it's decade old size limitation is beyond me!
