Sounds funny but try to format it in a camera like a canon or nikon. I had an issue on two separate occasions where I couldn't flash my cards. I dropped them in my camera and they formatted back to a readable state.:silly:

yea i cant...only have a cannon 30d camera...no sd slot

Flashing with SD Card

Hey guys!
I have a question about flashing with SD-Card:
Do I have to use 1GB/2GB Cards which are none "SDHC" cards?
Or does our Blackstone support High Capacitiy in Bootloader Mode?

I flashed mine using the 8GB card that came with the phone. I would of thought as long as the phone can read the memory card you'll be able to flash from it.
Ok, if you did it with the 8GB card then it should work. Thanks

That's wrong, as far as I know. My old device was a Hermes which I could NOT flash with SDHC cards. But it was also able to read SDHC cards like my 4GB SDHC card.
That's why I asked
i tried with 2 different 8gb cards one of which came with the phone and both didnt work ,
but my 2gb and 16gb both work

I can confirm this too - and I nearly always flash my HTC's from the card.
But you need make sure that card is first formatted to the correct FAT (cant remember which now, its in the Wiki), and obviously that the phone can see the card. Then all should work fine!

You have already stated the reason for your problem. If your 4gb has the 3 partitions, Some of what you need to run your rom has already been moved to the ext partition on your 4gb card. Copy the rom to your 8gb and use it to flash your phone.

Sandisk 8GB micro SDHC card problem

Hello,
I use a Sandisk 8GB micro SDHC card in my Tattoo. The first problem is that the card is not always recognized. After a reboot it works mostly fine again. The second problem is that i lost sometimes all my data on the card without any reason, it is just gone in a moment, I have already formatted the card in my PC but without any success. It is also not possible to do a format in my Tattoo (not working). Any suggestions how to handle with this? Thanks a lot, Mark
try formating the card i have the same card and it works sharply.. (format twice. )
Oops
I was thinking about buying this card... But now I think I won't risk :\

I've had this problem with my 8gb sandisk card too, but with froyo NFinity - had to format it the first time, and it was fine for a couple of days, then yesterday it came up with "Preparing SD Card", then "SD Card safe to remove" then "SDcard blank or has unsupported filesystem" in the notifications blind. Never had anything other than a FAT partition, and when I try to fomat it (on the phone, in Windows, in Linux) I can't. :/ I think my 4gb card was fine, but a bit scared to check now!

S4 SD Card makes phone reboot !

Hi everyone,
First post here, but I have been reading many threads for the past months and I thank everyone for their great help. I have a problem that I can't fix on my own. I have a Team 64GB MicroSDXC Flash Card Model. I use tunesync to synchronize all my itunes music. I have all my titanium backups on my sd card and a few photos. i Have 26.75 GB available but my phone cannot write more on the SD without Freezing and rebooting constantly... It is rooted but I have a stock ROM, and my SD card is format exfat.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I have a Team 32GB card with 27GB of music on it and it's formatted as FAT32 and have had zero problems. If you can, try that format and see if it helps.
Will try

Sorry it didn't work.
I have been using 32GB micro SD card in my galaxy S4 with 0 problem so far. Then I bought a Samsung 64 GB micro SD card and did format it to fat32. It stopped working after one day. I removed the old partition and format it again, only 15 out of 64 GM became available. I had a similar problem with another 64 GB micro SD card a month ago.
My personal feeling is that android 4.2.2 does not like 64 GB card regardless of the format type.......
I will continue to use my 32 GB card until getting a new phone with 32 GB internal storage.

Thank you for your answer. Did you try format your Samsung SD to EXFAT? I feel like my Micro SD is fried and is on its last run being write protected. I requested an RMA from Team Group.

You may not have the same issue as I did but on my s3 it was a sign my sd card was going bad. Do you have a spare to test with? I sent two 64gb cards back before I got a good one. I keep a 32gb as a spare and test.

What kind of SD card do you have? Apparently, according to a thread here: http://www.discussny.com/technical-support/10143-samsung-galaxy-note-3-not-read-new-micro-64gb-card.html the Note 3 will not work with 64 GB SDHC cards. I know, I tried and also got the disappearing file problem. You have to use an SDXC type card.

That article Samsung is full of **** my note 3 is working fine with my 64gb card. I did have an issue early on where my media services went bananas but that worked itself out. Mine is a 64gb pny SDXC class 10.

Well I'll agree that there seems to be a lot of confusion surrounding this issue. All I can say is I tried a genuine Samsung brand 64 GB SDHC Class 10 micro-SD card in my Verizon Note 3 4.4.2 NC4 and it did not work. I had the card permissions fixed so I could write on it, and I could download my entire mp3 directory from my PC (USB transfer) and see all the files on the card, but as soon as I rebooted, the directory name was still there but it was empty. Also, all the mp3 files on /mnt/extSdCard played at 10x normal speed (and I tried half a dozen different players) but if they were stored on /sdcard, they played fine (same identical files). I have a 64 GB SDXC card on order that's supposed to be here today, so I'll be interested to see if that works.
UPDATE
I just put a Kingston 64 GB Class 10 SDXC micro-SD card in the phone. It came up already formatted so I didn't do that. I applied the "enable write to external SD card" option in Wanam Xposed and rebooted, but that didn't take so I ran the SD Fix app from the app store. That worked. I've now been able to successfully download data from four different apps onto /mnt/extSdCard and they're all OK. I also downloaded my MP3's (using FE) and they play OK too. Everything is still there and working properly after a reboot.
So I guess it's true - 64 GB SDHC cards will not work in the Note 3, but SDXC will.
