Anyone have any luck putting an sd card larger than the officially supported 512gb? I've had luck on a bunch of other phone putting bigger cards than supposedly allowed. Just bought the a70 and wondering if I can put a 2tb card in!

Does anyone know if there is a speed limit when it comes to the SD cards for the EVO? I noticed that the 16GB cards that are marketed as EVO are all class 2. Is this what I need to stick with? Or can I pick any 16GB micro card?

You should be able to get anything. Worst case, the card will be too fast for your phone to use at full speed, but it will still work.
Hello, So I just got the LG E370, and was wondering about the memory card limit. Now I read it states that the biggest card it accepts is a 64gb card, but then that ventures into the realm of SDXC. And SDXC has a limit of 2TB, So would I not be able to install a 2TB microsd card (assuming one was able to obtain such a card)?Would it be a software limitation or am I misunderstanding the size limitations of cards. I know SD is up to 2GB, SDHC is 4GB to 32GB, and from what i've ever dealt with, anything that can accept a 4gb can acccept both a 2gb, and a 32gb card. So why would the phone not be able to accept beyond the 64gb while it's still in same format?.
Thanks in advance.
I've been having a terrible time with getting my Sprint GS3 (stock running JB) to use my new Sandisk Ultra 64GB microSDXC. According to Samsung's site (http://www.samsung.com/global/galaxys3/specifications.html) the phone is supposed to support 64GB cards. The Sprint manual doesn't have anything about types of cards, and the website just echos the same "up to 64GB" verbiage.
So, I tried taking the original format (exFAT), formatting with the phone (exFAT), and formatting with FAT32 (using EaseUS partition manager), and formatting with Win7 (exFAT). In all cases, when I copy the contents of my original 16GB card over to it, I seem to eventially get a corruption problem. It shows up right away when I try to view the photos with Gallery (gallery only shows a few of the 1000 thumbnails, and then closes itself with no error message). With FAT32 I ended up getting the phone giving a corruption alert requiring a reformat (I never got this alert with the exFAT, just gallery crashing).
I tried getting the data (about 13GB) onto the card by copying the contents from my old 16GB card over on a PC (using a SD-card adapter as well as with a microSD reader). I also tried formatting the card directly on the phone and then copying the data over using a microusb cable. I did check the card on a PC with H2test2 ver 1.4 (commonly referenced). This helps to determine "fake" cards. It writes and then verifies data to the entire card. No issues were reported with the full capacity verified. I got the card from Amazon with Amazon as the supplier (no oddball vendor).
Anyone run into this or have ideas? I was hoping to skip over the 32gb point as I like to keep more photos and movies on there for travel.
Thanks!
It is seemingly a problem with the SanDisk Ultra cards, whatever the technical reasons they don't play well with the phone's host controller.
I have had the same issues as you, and so did a very large amount of people. I resorted to buying a Samsung 64GB Pro card and ever I have not had any problems.
I have heard some people talking that SanDisk cards manufactured (Toshiba is actually the manufacturer of the memory) before December were prone to this problem, but this is only what I've heard but you can search on this lead. You can try to replace it with SanDisk service.
Thanks for the reply. I'll try Sandisk support first but keep looking around on here to see if anyone has run into a similar issue.
Anyone else?
I concur with the theory that Sandisk has a rash of bad cards. In my case it was a 32GB card just konk out in less than a month.
Their customer service was excellent in replacing it though. Good C.S they have but I'll avoid their cards for now.
I keep getting a usb storage damaged message. I have read that it is sometime an issue with the galaxy s3. Also sometimes when I first unlock the phone it says prepping sd card even though I did not remove it.
Also my SD card is a SanDisk 64gb class 10. I have read that this can be an issue with a certain crop of SanDisk.
Any tips? As of right now entitling works and if it's just messages popping up.

Have you tried using the SD card in other devices and on a computer?
I had a *similar* problem with an old MicroSD card in my original Galaxy phone and formatting the card seemed to work. I can't speak too much to your issue because the largest MicroSD card I've used is 32 and it's been flawless.
Yeah, verify across devices first. If not, try filing a claim with SanDisk if you purchased the sdcard only recently and it's already gone bye-bye.
How much is the max size for micro sd cards on the galaxy s9?
I know it says 400gb but I've read that ppl got bigger sd cards working, so I'm just wondering if anyone knows how high i can go.
Has anyone tried 1tb cards?
