I and many with me cant copy files over 4gb directly to our SD cards. There should not be any problem with the file size since the cards are formatted in exFAT but files over 4gb cant be copied.
If you copy a large file first to the internal memory and then over to the SD card it works, but not directly to it.
I get this error message:

How come? It is really irritating.
I am using a 64GB SanDisk Class 10 card but I think that it has something to do with the note 2 settings somehow because I dont think that the same problem occurs with the S3.
I have tried with the standard explorer in windos(simply crashes), Airdroid, ES File Explorer and Kies.
This issue has been discussed a bit here as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889203&page=5
Any ideas or work around except copying first to the internal which is getting overfilled already.
Hi.
I can confirm it is possible, but you need a rooted Note 2. I just copied a 5.26 Gbyte video to my Note 2 64 GByte card ...
It's not stable though: just after copying, the Note 2 became veeeeeeery slow and needed a reboot. I'm sure that'll work out better in the future.
You need:
- On the phone: SGS3 Easy UMS (see here)
- On the PC: SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe (see here)
SGS3 Easy UMS needs BusyBox and asks for its installation. I used the "Install" method during the BusyBox installation instead of "Smart Install". I don't know if it matters, but it worked at least.
Because of the slowness issue, I instructed SGS Easy UMS to use MTP again as default. It's easy enough to swith to UMS mode if necessary.
YMMV : hope it helps
Actually I've run into this issue on the Note 10.1 with the same scenario.
I just put the files on the Micro SD card directly, then insert the card into the tablet.

Maybe not, bought it three years ago.
I will try on another computer as well and then maybe buy another sd card reader, any tips on which one to buy?
This is the one i've been using for years... Its a whole $0.47 cents!!! lmao!!!!

Any update about this issue?
ikonane,
I currently own a Note AND a Note II (see my signature) and the process was the same, you format your MicroSD XC in NTFS and not exFAT which is not properly recognised by Notes. This is the most tricky part as I had to buy a specific microsd reader from Sony that was supporting XD format otherwise I was only allowed to use the first 32GB.
Once done, you install (you need to be root) on your Note II NTFSSD (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oyaxai.ntfssd) and voila, you can copy files above the 4GB limit either by using your microsd adapter or using the usb link.
One additional piece of information, I prefer use the microsd adapter because speed transfer is faster (7 MB/s) than with the USB link (around 2MB/s) and with the Note II you can eject your sdcard without turning your mobile off which was not possible with the first occurrence of the Galaxy Note.
Hope it helps.

Hahaha, someone who thinks they know what they're talking about.
This wouldn't be a problem if FAT32 could handle files over 4gb, but you knew that right? Oh yeah I'm sure you did.

Jusyt started having an issue with my SD Card noticed really today but a few times in the past.
The SD card seems to 'drop out' I.E. It wont be picked up by the phone.
I currently have the 6.5 UK Offical ROM installed.
Edit:
Seems to be caused when I use RSS Hub and it downloads a feed and freezes.
Almost like it tries to write to the SD, messes up and this drops out the SD Card???
Already discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580159
Thank you for that however that didnt resolve my issue and I wasnt prepared to buy a new card just yet. (I know they are cheap but I always have to get my moneys worth! )
So I have solved the issue.
It appeared there was a file or two that were either corrupted or were located in bad sectors and when the phone tried to read these from the SD Card it failed and the SD Card bummed out.
As opening the folder containing the files also dropped out the SD Card I backed up my data thus:
Connected the phone to the pc via Data Storage.
ran xcopy from command prompt:
xcopy e:\*.* c:\phone_backup /E
This would freeze on the corrupted files so I would then reboot the phone and reconnect it and create a txt file in the C: Drive called file.txt and it contained just the name of the file.
Then you can run:
xcopy e:\*.* c:\phone_backup /E / EXCLUDE:file.txt
This would then attempt to copy the files whilst excluding any files listed in file.txt.
After a few more resets and a few more files added to the list I was able to copy off most of everything.
I then ran the SD Card through the Panasonic SD Card Formatter twice and copied all the files back.
12 Hours later and no issues as of yet. Fingers Crossed!!
If anyone needs a better explanation or help let me know!
I wish you all the best with your method, but how to apply it to an empty SD which has been formatted with Panasonic app (all settings tried)? In that case there are no files to work on..
If the card cant be read at all then it will not work but if it works up to a point and accessing something or something running (RSS HUB, scheduled email download) crashes it this may help.
I would suggest trying to card in the phone in data storage mode, in a camera, in a usb card reader. Try different ways and if one works get the files off you can.
Without using a data recovery tool like Photrec you cant recover data on a card formatted with Panasonic tools. Make sure you get what you can off it before you format!!
Sie: Thanks for taking the trouble of explaining what you did, others with a card problem might find that very useful. I use command line but wasn't aware of the "exclude" switch, it's very handy to know.

This post is based on the excellent post of trip007in about swapping internal and external SD cards. Trip007in's hack is for the i9003 and didn't work for my i9000 (Samsung Galaxy S). Since I couldn't reply to trip007in's post (I am a new member) I am posting it here. I am quoting certain pieces of the original post, and other's I have adapted to be valid for the Samsung Galaxy S (GT-i9000)
Trip007in:
I have seen many forum members requesting (...) for a method to increase the internal sdcard memory to enable installing games, which generally require high memory storage space or storing maps for example for standalone GPS navigation system. Again such maps requires to be stored on internal memory card for them to work. All this is possible using this mod.

Link to original post
Introduction: The Galaxy S has three memory partitions built in.
1. Internal Phone memory- Consists of Internal Phone storage (1.43 GB). This is not accessible through the USB mounting.
2. Internal SD card storage (5.64 GB) which is remaining partitioned memory. This partition is called "sdcard" by the system. This is the memory which needs to be boosted for increasing efficiency to install games, and applications which needs to stay in internal sdcard.
3. external sdcard called "external_sd" by system. This memory is added by user using micro sd card (up to 32GB) for storage purpose.
The problem is that the phone cannot access the external_sd card to store apps and appdata (for example, offline maps for MapDroyd or offline wikipedia files for WikiDroyd). It can only be used to store music and videos. In my case, as an international worker travelling between Netherlands and France every week, I wanted autonomy, even without network coverage, and wanted to have my maps and english, dutch and french wikipedias available offline. This was not possible due to the limited size of the internal sdcard.
This hack makes use of external sdcard as internal sdcard, thus providing storage capacity upto 32 GB depending upon the capacity of microSDcard added by user. The internal sdcard memory is converted to external_SD, thus two memory are swapped by using simple modified path in the vold.fstab.
Before going on please do the following:
1. Check if your external_sd card is accessible by the phone. You can check this through Settings -> SD Card and phone storage -> External SD card. Here you should see some space assigned to the phone.
If you have an external_sd but cannot see the space in Settings, you will have to solve that first. Maybe the sdcard has the wrong formatting or something like that.
2. Make sure that your phone is rooted. Without that, you cannot apply this hack.
3. Make sure to buy RootExplorer (or use the "ADB" method as described by trip007in. For me, RootExplorer worked faster!).
4. Make a copy of your device's original vold.fstab before following the procedure described by trip007in!
Procedure:
Follow the original instructions of trip007in in his post about swapping sd cards but, instead of using his original and moderated vold.fstab files, use the ones I attached to this post.
If the hack doesn't work for you, you can revert back to your original setting by removing the hacked vold.fstab and copying back your device's original vold.fstab.
For me the hack worked like a charm, pls see the attached screenshot.

MTP doesn't have anything against the type of files you can transfer. It'll give you a warning but you can just click past that to continue on with the transfer.

Yes it does, it changed file created date , I can't see Linux hidden files (names start with "point")

I have tried SGS3_Easy_UMS_v1.2beta2.apk and it doen't work well (PC can see disk , but not what inside disk)
All I can do is to remove external SD card and connect to card reader, but it's annoying !

Hi,
I try to sync my i9500 external sd card, connected in MTP mode on stock rom.
The response times are terrible, and the entire sync process is very slow & lagging.
Runnig win7 64bit.
I want to verify I'm using optimal MTP drivers.
any help highly appreciated.

Thanks for your response.
I did
1. clean uninstall of the drivers
2. restart
3. latest driver install (from kies folder)
4. restart
5. connected the device & waited until the device installed successfully.
6. Upgraded the sync software (musicbee) to 2.2 beta
Now sync works like a charm again.
Hi,
Apparently - this happens again.
Any idea how to improve MTP device response?

Eventually, I found this to be a microSDXC card issue (Sandisk Ultra 64GB).
I can't copy new files to the card, nor delete old files, nor format the card (even low level formatting doesn't work).
Card is under international lifetime warranty. Opened a service request with Sandisk for the moment.
****REQUIRES ROOT****|**For sdcards formatted as portable storage**
Hi. As you already know many of the custom roms break the functionality of moto camera to save directly to external sdcard.But I have found a nice workaround for this. The latest version of Folder Mount works on MM(more details below)
So all we have to do is to link the /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera to /storage/{number&letters}/DCIM/Camera.
Link to post about latest version of Folder Mount is here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=67007980
It works for my rom+kernel+whatever but you should test it first.Download it and first create a test link between two test folders in both storages. Now with a file manager copy a file in internal test folder.If the app works for you then you should see the file in external sdcard test folder too. Now you can link the DCIM/Camera and there you go!:fingers-crossed:
Tip:When linking,there is a option to hide the external folder from gallery.You can use it to prevent double entry in gallery.
I tested it on-
Resurrection Remix 5.6.9+Squid kernel 16g. My sdcard is sandisk uktra 64 gb formatted as portable .
I haven't tested it with sdcards formatted as internal. I have no idea how that works too.
I am *not* responsible for data loss,so make it *absolutely sure* that you do have a backup of at least a nandroid,internal and external sdcard.All credit goes to the dev of Folder Mount app.:good:
Note: You should also read the Main thread of FolderMount for general instructions, tips and *updates*.Its here-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192122
If you get it working please report back with your rom+kernel+sdcard file system and other details so people can confirm easily.It is a do-it-as-your-risk and you should be careful.Thank you.:laugh:

From what I know of the app's working, the files are actually located at external sdcard but are visible on both.If you turn off the link and visit the folders, you will find that internal one(in our case /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera) appears to be empty whereas the one in sdcard (/storage/{numbers&letters}/DCIM/Camera) holds the files. It can be seen from twrp file manager too. So the good thing is the files are not doubled actually.
A funny thing is it may confuse space calculating apps, for example my es explorer's sd card analyst shows 3.52 gb of 11.81 gb used but at the same time shows dcim one(one the internal; which is empty) as of 3.61 gb alone. But storage option in settings seem to show correctly.
Anyways glad to hear it works![emoji16]
