http://forum.xda-developers.com – Alright, first let me start by saying that I hope this is in the right area and i'm sorry because i'm sure this question has been asked to death. I have a Galaxy S 3 Running stock with android 4.0.4 (Not rooted) I also have a SanDisk Ultra 64GB SDXC class 10 MicroSD card (Formatted to FAT32) I have had the phone a month and for probably the first week I was using the card in the ExFAT file format...Then random card identification problems started to pop up. So I scoured the web for a short time and found that the issue could be solved by reformatting the MicroSD to FAT32 at the expense (HowTos)

I purchased a Sandisk 64GB micro SD card through Amazon. I got the card and put it in my phone and the phone said it was damaged. It wouldn't mount the SD card to format it. I tried to format it with my laptop, but it would not give the option for fat32.

I did a Google search and found this.

will any 64gb microsd card work in the note 10.1, i think i read somewhere the tablet is a bit picky about the card you use, i was looking at the Sandisk Ultra 64GB Class 10 Micro SD Card, is anyone else using this with no problems?

I recently owned a HTC Desire with a 16GB MicroSD installed. After I bought my Galaxy S3 I didn't had another 16GB MicroSD card so I decided to keep it as a backup and use a 8GB MicroSD. After few weeks of usage I decided to put the 16GB card to use. I shut down my S3, popped out the 8GB card, copied it's contents to my WindowsPC, formatted the 16GB card to fat32 and copied the contents over.

Verizon S3 64gb SDXC problem 2 weeks 11 hours ago

Hello! I am having an issue. I purchased a Sandisk 64gb micro SD for my S3. Here is the issue. I have done this formatted as both exFat and Fat32...I transfer music via iSyncr. I put the card in my computer. Transfer 25gbs of music. It works correctly, shows correctly. When I insert the card into my S3, it checks for errors. Go to storage and when formatted in exfat shows only 4gbs transferred.

I tried this card before and the unit didnt seem to find it, it just showed at the bottom saying can be removed, but when i went to storage it wasn't there.

i put the card in my laptop and used guiformat to format it as fat32 but it shows as 29gb and not 64. the packaging says 64gb, am i missing something or do i have a wrong card in my packaging?

Compatible sd-cards? 39 weeks 4 days ago

What microSD-cards are you using, that are fully compatible with the TF300T?

I bought 2 cards recently, having issues with both of them. I just ordered a new card reader for my PC, hope that fixes the issues.

Card 1: Transcend 32GB Class 10 - Formatted to NTFS. Issue: Fully working on PC.

My case involves a Sandisk 32gb class 6 MicroSD card. Initially my S3 says that I have a blank card, but later it can detect the card again. For a few days this keeps on happening, on and off. Until the S3 continuously says the card is blank for a whole day.

Hi, i recently bought a 64GB Sandisk Ultra Microsdxc card for my Samsung Galaxy S III. When i used the Adapter to connect it to my Macbook, i couldn't read/write to its fat32, so i had to format it to something else, so i just chose ExFAT. I put some stuff on it, but now, two days later, the card is suddenly read only?
