[Q] 64gb micro sd in a samsung galaxy tab2 10.1
- Thread starter anwho
- Start date
they say it only takes the 32GB, but if I find that it really can take a 64GB card I might have to do an upgrade.
neetste apts;
Formatted the sdxc on an LG phone and reformed it on the sgt.Igot it to work on my sgt 2 10.1 but nothing is saving to the external drive . Everything still goes to the internal drive
Everything automatically saves to the internal memory i don't have an option to save to external. I can actually move them to my external but that hassle.

I just just got a sgt 2 10.1 and concider to buy the sdxc, but did you manage to get it to work? Can you save to the card? Appreciate all advice.
Yes, 64GB cards work in this tablet. I bought this one and I am using it now:
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Mobile-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B005V7WIA2/
And yes, you can write to it as well.
BUT...note that it will not work out of the box. It is pre-formatted in a way that is incompatible with the tablet. And the tablet will not format it for you, even though it will offer to.
However, if you reformat it with the VFAT filesystem in a computer first, it will work fine in the tablet. I used Linux's "mkfs" utility to do this.

Hello there, I'm using Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" too..
my problem is the same with yours. (I bought the 64GB one, SanDisk)
I don't have any other Android device to format it, I might have to borrow my friends' device.
I'd like to ask whether the SDXC card will automatically works on the tablet if the size is compatible or not..
I mean, will it saves files, music, games, applications, etc to the external storage? (If the size is compatible)
because you said that we can move them, but we have to move them manually..
I could use any kind of suggestions and helps here..
by the way, I'm new here..

Hi,
have you ever tried Paragon NTFS&HFS+ app from the App-Store? In my SGS2 it works fine. Full read/write access.

64gb
Sorry, but the only 64gb card the s2 10.1 tab will take is the standard micro card .If you put in a sdxc1..it WILL work but ONLY up to 32gb,then it will almost certainly lock and you might not be able unlock it..or reformat it even in a computer

NOT correct. You'll find cards that'll give you all of the 64...
a huge discussion all around.
