Hey guys,
I've got a 32gb tf300 and a 32gb SD card. I've seen a few posts of people saying they use their SD card as internal memory. I've found a few posts but they are always device specific. Can anyone provide me additional information regarding this? Is it a universal process? Pros/cons of doing it? Thanks for your help
I dont think you can since android 4. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong though

I completely agree and I'm by no means scratching for space, its perhaps more of a learning exercise than anything else. Though it would be nice to be able to pin all of my music for offline listening with plenty of room to spare

I have a 64 gig sd card in mine... With 32gig internal.
I saw the thread on the tf201 where they did mount the data partition and it really speeds up tge slow data transfer rates on the prime.

Can you move game data to a micro SD card?

Awesome thanks. I'll scour and see if I can find it. Hopefully the process is the same on the tf300

I guess you could... But with even the 16gig version and a sd card you should be straight. 64 gig class 6 sd card 65 bux... Can't complain, 32gig class 10's are 30 and under.

whooow, hold your horses, do i read 64GB sdcard? can i put a 64gb sdxc card in this thing??
i thought 32 gb SDHC was the max ...
ps (i dont have the dock)
Yes you can use 64 gB cards...I know of one guy who has 64 gb and 128 gb cards on dock in addition (total 288gb ..32+64+64+128 on his tf300)

If I'm ablee to move game data to the micro SD card, that would be great.

Seriously how many games do you play at a time? ...I think 32gb internal is enough ..get the music,books, videos and rest on SD card...and if need lots of memory ...get a portable large usb drive 1 TB or so and connect to dock or USB adapter

My SanDisk sd card has 16 gb on it but on S4 and all devices it has only 896 mb? How can I fix it? Already tried reformatting.

Google search "counterfeit sd card". Maybe that is the issue.
Or if you have a windows 8 PC with an SD card reader and a full size SD card adaptor, try using the built in "Disk Management" utility to see the actual room on the card and to reclaim it if it is there.

they pretty much are I never had an issue with them just exchange it if you just got it and test it while your still in the store..
I have read about the San Disks having issues with this phone. Forget where. The 64gb Samsung solved those issues. They didn't talk about smaller Samsung cards. And don't remember if it was only a certain size San Disk card.

The OP said the card reported limited storage on other devices as well, but didn't say what other devices, so I'm thinking it is a problem with the card in general this time.
i'm running a Sandisk 64gb right now for about a yr had it in my S3 and now in my S4 and a 32gb sandisk before this one no issues
Ok so I turned on my p hone the other day and it says "SD Card damaged, please reformat". I ejected it and put it back in, and now the phone acts like there isnt an SD in the slot. Wtf. Anyone know why Samsung phones destroy SD Cards? And could anyone recommend a card it wont destroy? Ive heard good things about the 64 gig Samsung card but idk..

Can you read it on your computer/laptop?
I would try reformatting on the phone after dumping any data to your pc.

agreed
Did you get this card on eBay? Or from a reputable store? As others said - make sure you try the SD card in a computer or elsewhere.
I believe this is just a fluke issue. I had the same problem. I shut phone completely off for 5 minutes turned it back on and everything was fine with me. So before you go panicking try shutting phone off then back on.

I also have had this happen with two separate cards. The last time it happened the data was a complete loss. Unreliable if you ask me.

16gig any brand should not be having issues at all, format fat32, and it will work, now 64 on the other hand, s4 and 64g have serious issues playing together.
I have an 8 gig and 16 gig card that I have used for YEARS and my S4 runs them just fine. I don't really think it's the phone.
I've had this issue a few times on my SanDisk 64GB. I panic at first, then just reboot and wait and it comes back fine... No data loss (yet) but I have everything backed up anyway..
only one thing to do, kill the S4...

I have never ever had any issues with the micro sd card on any of the Galaxy's phone. It might be a bad card. It's not your phone that killed the Kingston micro sd card. If your phone was a killer, it would have killed internal sd first before even killing this innocent 16 GB Kingston micro sd card.

OP I TOTALLY feel your pain! I've killed 2 64GB SD cards with my S4 since it was new. They were both sandisk ultra class 10 cards. I finally got a Samsung brand, and haven't had one single issue! It even runs faster than the sandisk ones.
Kingston SD cards .... the *** NEW Kingston SD *** cards are now working with Samsung devices.
My first Kingston 64 GB SD card stopped working months ago and asked Kingston for a RMA and they sent my new card. Now this new card has stopped working as well ... i asked Kingston what the problem was and they mentioned the the last batches of 64 GB SD cards were not compatible with Samsung Phones. I have two (2) Kingston 64 GB SD cards. Check the numbers on your Kingston SD cards NOW...
the two cards i have now are being returned via RMA and the numbers i have are
31461-001.AOOLF
NO427-003.AOOLF
Please check your SD Card numbers now and BACK UP your SD cards and

I just lost my second 32gb class 10 Sandsk SD card in the S4. I didn't take the card out our do anything special. The card is now unrecognized in my computer and phone. This is the second SD card I lost. Any ideas on what may be causing this and how to possibly repair a card that isn't recognized?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda premium
Try a card reader and pop it in a computer. Mine went unrecognized after a hefty download from the play market failed. So I copied everything off it and put it back in. And it worked. After backup if ur pc sees everything u can format it even once in the phone. Good luck

Just ordered a SanDisk 32GB sd card also except mine is class 4... wonder what the difference is, hope it doesn't happen to me :fingers-crossed:
It is disturbing at the cost of these. Fortunately I have a backup that isn't too old and I decided not to move all my apps to the SDCard.

The class is a speed rating.
A class 10 is 2.5 times faster than a class 4 at reading from and writing to the card.
I have just lost my second 32 gig. Lots of data lost. Can this be coincidence. I am worried and will start to back up the next mem card for piece of mind. I will guess the first one worked for 1 year and the second for 2 hope thurd times the charm.
exFAT is now supported in 4.2.2!
Formatted my 64gb MicroSD to exFAT on my PC and currently copying a 6gb movie file to SD Card.
yeah, i read in sony forums
atleast they listened
Thank you for sharing! This is great news. Now I am just waiting for the update to arrive.

ExFAT, if im not mistaken is a memory card format that allows faster read write speeds and overall data quality improvement. Most higher capacity cards use it out of the box and consumers generally like the format better, not that you will see the difference.

It means easy acces from Windows machines (that do not read EXT), better free space allocation, but the most important features are that larger drive sizes are possible and there's no noticable file size restriction (FAT is limited to about 4GB max size per file, meaning you cannot copy a 6 or 8 GB movie to a FAT formatted drive).
One of the reasons I chose this tablet. Eagerly awaiting the update for the WIFI only version (SGP312)
I dont have the update, and I am using exfat

WiFi only models always had exFAT support. It was the LTE models that were missing exFAT support.
So does it support 64gb micro sd? I need to get one, however official sony pages write that SGP321 supports up to 32gb only.

I have the WI-FI only model and use a class 10, 64gb card with no problems.
Sent from my SGP312 using Tapatalk 2
That's the deal. As on wifi models sony states that max card is 64gb, while LTE version has 32gb. And I could not figure out what could be the reason for that. And as I don't have 64gb card around to try or on, it's kind of risky to get that without being 100% sure that it will work properly.
