So, we have NTFS support covered, but what about exFAT? Unfortunately my video camera runs on a 16GB exFAT SDHC, and won't recognize NTFS filesystem. Will it be possible?
I have 64GB sdcard and my phone is rooted. I lost all my data on card because of exfat file system. I have found out it is very unreliable. Reliability is worse than FAT32 system.
I would like to have NTFS or ext4 file system on it instead of exfat. I tried several apps: ezymount, NTFS mounter, Paragon NTFS & HFS+. No app was able to mount the card. Is there some way to use NTFS sdcard in galaxy s4?
Never had any problem with exFat filesystem with any samsung device I've owned. You'd better check the reliability of the card you're using!

No easy way. The kernel and modules set it up for exFAT. There is no way to change it without a significant change to the kernel and some support in the OS, initramfs etc.
Hi, is it possible for our TN 7 to have exFAT support?
My SD CARD don't work with FAT32, NTFS or EXT4 fs, I tried to fromat it from Linux and Windows as well, always some problems.

You may need to do a full format of the partition table.
Format sdcard in MSDOS then make fat32 partition. For any modern memory or storage, use GPT format and then make partitions to suit. Partitions are best in fat32 or ext4.
GParted is a partition manger GUI for Linux that should do the job.
Any update on this?
Does the TN7 support exFat formatted sd-cards or only Fat32. Would be quite a bummer ... due to the 4gb file-size limitation exFAT or NTFS (not happening for sure) would be highly prefered.
Edit (i think i found the official answer)

Well ... bummer!
Is there a possibility to add exFAT support through other means? A modded ROM maybe? Or a "patch"? (i read that there is something for the Galaxy S3 with CM10.1 and that CM11 supports exFAT from the start.)

I tried for a while with different apps to get another file system to work, but never could get it figured out. No matter what I did, fat32 is the only thing I could get to work.

Use "Bootice" by "www.ipauly.com" to format the sd card to FAT,FAT32,NTFS. Or you can try some another windows utility to format (I think your windows right click format fn is not working properly.) There are various options to choose, choose "partition editor -> your sd card -> create partition table as USB-HDD" option. This will recreate the partition table of the sd card.
I have tested exFAT with TN7, but it doesn't work. FAT,FAT32,NTFS work. I think EXT2/3/4 will not work with sd cards.
If those devices would at least support ext4 on their sd-cards ... just for files >4gb.
Thanks, will try bootice.
TEGRA NOTE 7 compatible micro SD card file system
I bought a 64GB micro SD that the TEGRA NOTE wouldn't read. As it turned out the problem was caused by the exFat file system on the card that the T.N. wouldn't even recognize. NTFS is recognized but it is read only and finally FAT32 is fully recognized, I am now able to read and write on my SD card. I used bootice by Pauly to perform the operations as suggested above, chose "USB-HDD" option and all is OK now.
Hello all,
I am using g900i with xtrestolite 5.0 rooted rom. I want to connect my external hdd via usb otg. Problem is that i have 2 partitions, 1 is fat 32 of about 120gb and rest is ntfs. I have already tried stickmount and paragon to connect ntfs but was unsuccessful. The fat32 version wosrks natively.
Please help.
Should I use exfat or NTFS for a 64gb sd card?
What's the pros and cons of each?
Thanks!
Would NTFS even work? As far as I know, exFAT is the way to go for cards > 32GB.
Neither

I'm using EXT4 for my Note 10.1 v2014 tablet because it's multi-core compatible.
