I have formatted my microSD 8g card to prepare it for the files but when i got to windiskimager it just keeps telling me that there isn't enough room on the card and ejects it. Am supposed to have it on a certain allocation size and file system when I format it? Or has anyone else has this problem?
Thanks!

What version of CWR are you using? 3.2.0.1 takes very little space. You don't need to look for an 8GB image just because you have an 8GB card. You can pick a smaller image than the card size, just not larger.
I already have the 3.0.2.8 right now so do i just load it with the newest version instead of trying to do it with that CWR in the files I already have to reroot?
Thanks for the sizing issue

Also I read in another place on here somewhere about the formatting issue that sometimes windows doesn't do a full format and only takes out the first level partition, if this is my case what do I need to get it to format fully?
Thanks so much for the help!

Start all over with 3.2.0.1......

I am still having problems with memory storage.
I have DL Desire v4.1 and using MAGLDR to load then ROM.
I have formatted the SD card with the Ext3 partition using the mini tool, but i am still getting the low storage space. Looking at the SD card storage it does show 3gig out of a 4gig SD card but im guessing this is what it should be.
I have been looking for a good step by step guide but everyone i read seems to be different or it has parts missing.
Any help ?
Did you make sure you clicked apply on minitool?
i may be wrong, but if you added the ext partition after the rom was already installed, wouldn't only new apps be placed on the ext partition? (perhaps im wrong, dunno much about this)
Hi all,
It seems that I'm having a bit trouble with writing the image to my SD card. I'm using a 16GB currently with Honeycomb on it, but after the image finished writing, my card size is reduced to 105MB free out of 150MBish. I tried to get the CM7 boot to work on a 2GB card, after the "generic" img finished writing on the card, it gets the same free 105MB, and I can't copy the CM7 files onto the card because those files are 115MB total.
I tried partitioning the card but it's still the same, and the computer isn't able to see the second partition that's not the main one. Is anyone having this issue and/or know how I can fix it? Much appreciated.
Cheers,

Very much a known issue... to work around this:
1. Write the image to SD
2. Resize boot partition (only one on it so far) to anything up to 2 GB.. I recommend keeping it less than 2 GB for compatability
3. Put your ROM on the boot partition
4. Put SD in nook and boot it up
Hey thanks!
So for some reason I was able to follow this post and root my Nook http://www.informationweek.com/byte/howto/231002060
I used the 2GB card again and this time after writing the image to it I still have 1.75ishGB left and the file didn't take up the whole card like it did previously. Was able to boot up CWM and flash CM7.
But I'm running into another problem, which is my 16GB card, no matter how I format it, the Nook would not recognize that it's mounted. And when it does show up in the system, it only sees about 1.5GB, and the card is completely empty. I'm really stuck here, is this another known problem?

What are you using to format it? What format, FAT32? What was on it before? What shows up when in a reader on your PC?
I used EASEUS and also just window to format the card. It's in FAT32 and my PC sees it as a removable storage device just fine, all 14.5GB of it.
LOL
Honestly, the OP does drive me nut
I want to help but I can't follow what he said.
16GB SD, 2GB SD, what?
If you, OP, still need help, then pls clearly indicate what your problem is and what you intend to accomplish.

EASEUS does help a lot (ext4) but I would then suggest never using Windows to format a uSD. This works much better IMO to get a good format.
This might sound really dumb but I can't figure out how to move my **** to the SD card. I downloaded couple 3rd party apps to move them but its telling me my device is sharing space with the sd and internal storage which is total bull. I would like to move **** but theres no option too. Any advice and or ways to move this ****? Thanks guys.
Google changed the way Android treats SD cards with Kit Kat...
If you meant moving apps to the SD card, you can do that with several apps with root. Not possible without root.
You can move media to the SD card no problem with most file managers.
It is possible.. You have to make two partition on your SD card... Download mini tool on you PC then put your SD card in it and make to partitions on SD card
Question
With the progress made on this phone in its current state can I move apps to the SD card?
I'm telling you it is possible download MiniTool Partition off the internet onto your computer

You should put a step by step. It would definitely be appreciated and help out a lot of us[emoji3]
I've had this problem since i got my i9505 but i have no more ideas on what to do next...
Since i got the phone i am not able to mount external sd card. With stock 4.4.2 it was detected but it would mount and unmount.
I flashed some other roms and most of them won't even detect the external sd card...
I am now on stock lollipop, rooted. No external sd card is detected and the Mount SD Card option is in grey. I've changed already the SD/SIM modulo and no diference.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
What format is the sdcard?
Eg. Fat32, EXfat, ext1 2 3 or 4, ntfs.
Is it a primary partition or secondary or logical partition?
---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 AM ----------
To get it to work it needs to first be primary partition, but be careful as I think Fat32 is going to be dropped from andriod at some point.
My sd is primary partition and formatted as EXfat.
Tried in every possible way... And with different cards...
I have tried several different SD-cards, I can get the ultratablet to recognize 8GB and 16 GB SD-cards but not 32 GB or 64 GB cards. Is anyone else having similar problems? is there a solution? Am I missing something?
I have had a SanDisk 128gb since the kick starter campaign. Pretty sure I am NTFS. No issues currently on the latest build either.

I had the same problem. I had ejected my card to erase and format it (I just wanted to start fresh on the new OS) and when I put it back in it wasn't recognized. After several hours of frustration—especially since there is no more "Storage" option in the Settings app to auto-format the card—I remembered that to get Remix 1.5 to recognize my 128 GB USB flash drive I had to format it as NTFS via my PC. So I did that with my 64 GB SD card, and when I went to check File Manager it showed up.
tl;dr Format your SD card as NTFS on your PC and it will work on Remix.
Getting closer, with NTSF ultratablet sees the card but
I formatted with NTSF, now the ultratablet sees the card but will not allow a write to it. If I put files on the SC-Card from my PC, they do not show up when viewed from the tablet.
PS
the SC-Cards that do work are 8GB and 16GB both formatted as FAT - formatted on my Samsung phone. But If I format the 64GB as FAT on my phone the ultratablet doesn't see it. It only sees the card as NTFS but will not allow read or writes.
PPS
the SD-Cards that work are class 4, the 32GB and the 64GB that don't work are class 10, could that matter?

I figured out that part last evening. After you insert the NTFS-formatted card, you have to open File Manager. In the menu on the left, touch Settings. An overview of your tablet's internal storage will appear on the right side. Near the top of that is a tab for external storage (it might be titled "No name" or something similar). Touch that tab and in the window that appears an option to "Format" will appear. When you format the card it will work correctly.

It doesn't matter. I'm using a Class 10 64 GB SDXC card.

THANK YOU - that did it, I could nnever have solved it without your help, wish there were better docs with the tablet, i really like it, it would be easier with docs
SD card
Thanks for the heads up on that. Got a 128 installed with no problems, but never would have guessed format NTFS and then have the tablet format.:good:
dang, i have 128GB microsd card and have it formatted to NTFS then my remix tablet is able to read it but show 0 GB free space but i formatted it via file manager that it has one.. so i got 119 GB free space now. but i wanted to know what filesystem after remix formatted. i checked it with my laptop and its FAT32. i hope i dont have any a file that its over 4 GB file...
my remix is 2.0.302. Build number is 5.1.1.-B2016040701 (April 07 2016 package)
