If you have formatted in fat16 not fat32 you will only see 3.5gb

I think you might have not formated the whole sdcard or formated in fat16

MicroSD Card format?

I have a Note 3, and i am unable to record calls when i am setting up the MicroSD as location which is formatted in exFat format.
I initially formatted in exFat cos to root the phone using the files that required the MicroSD card to be formatted in exFat, after that i did not care to reformat to Fat32.
Now the problem is when i try to use any call recording app and i setup the location for the internal phone storage, the recording works fine.
With the MicroSD card, it creates a file but with 0 kb size and says check line.. etc.
Is the MicroSD card supposed to be formatted in Fat32? its a 64Gb SanDisk Ultra Class 10

Ok i guess this is not so hard question after 77 views no replies.? Let me rephrase.. what format do you use to erase ur microsd card? Fat32 or exFat on the Note 3?

I use exFat. Support for 4GB+ files and is able to read/write on Windows and MacOS.

Exfat.....I believe the phone formats it in Exfat as well

Thanks. It looks like certain apps don't like this format. When I changed the format to fat32 the voice recorder media files would do just fine. But with exfat it just doesn't play.

exFAT support ?

Hi, there
As I could experience exFAT formated micro SD cards are not supported. Neither via internal SD slot nor via OTG.
Do you share my opinion?
Thanks

Mi A1 and SD card

Hi, as you all know Mi A1 supports Micro SD card, but I have question about the file system that it will support. I prefer the phone can use either NTFS or exFAT so that I can put files that is larger than 4GB on the memory card. But seems like the OS can't read both file format, only FAT32. Any idea?

Android OS generally is compatible with exFAT and FAT32.
NTFS is proprietary from Microsoft. So It cannot write to NTFS. (Solutions exist though, not worth the hassles)
More details can be found here.

I insert SanDisk 64GB card, exFAT
FS not recognized

insert the memory card to the phone.. then it'll show do you want to format it, do it..
after it's done, try moving the files you want to the memory card

After format file system is fat32

Try ApoMgr3.
Yes m1a1 will automatically format SD card now use the above to automatically shift your apps to it provided you use a very fast card.

yes, i face same problem. i want copy 6GB size videos to OTG flashdisk, but i didnt support with FAT32, also NTFS and ExFAT didnt support on Android Oreo too. didnt know how to fix.

For ExFAT you need to change the kernel to one that supports that file system.

I don't know why Mi A1 always request to be formatted to VFAT, not exFAT. When I bought memory card is already in exfat file system out the box.
