fat32

I recently bought a new SD card, and it started giving me this very annoying problem. I plan to use it for media, such as photos or videos, so it must be available at all times, or I just might not be able to post/view/take pictures or other types of media until a reboot. I don't think this is a...

Hi. I want to use a microSD as storage in my pocophone, but the phone only formats the microSD in FAT32, and I don't want to use fat32 for the file limit to 4GB. I have formatted the microSD to exfat from windows, and pocophone detects the microSD, but the write speed is not good. When the...

So it's known that the fat32 partition of the android SD doesn't mount automatically on MacOS, presumably because of the funky partition table. I just managed to mount it manually from terminal, it has some quirks but it works. First, find the partition: diskutil list shows you the disks on...

I have a bunch of USB drives as one does and most are formatted in fat32. I have the official Samsung otg adaptor that comes with note 9 and i plug in the NTFS USB and it says it needs to format. This is expected. I plug in a fat32 drive and it opens up nicely and i can view and edit content on...

Hello, I desperately wish I could use another filesystem (exFAT, NTFS, etc) but I need my external HDD to be readable from my Amazon Fire TV box, Android phone/tablet, and hopefully iOS devices (though the latter is less of an issue if this won't work). From everything I've read, the ONLY file...

Hello, Reading through many threads I have come across people wanting to format their SD Card FAT32 but are having issues. This is especially true for people upgrading their G3s to Lollipop. Most if not *all 5.0 releases in their various forms seem to like to see SD cards formatted with the...

Got a 32GB card, works great. Considering making the leap to 64GB. (128GB still too expensive.) I've heard a bunch of stuff about going up to 64GB... some from my days with the Samsung Galaxy S3, and some more from HTC One M8... Formatting issues, only supporting certain ROMs... Mainly I run...

I followed some instructions to organise FAT32 mode on a 64gb class 10 genuine sandisk card (I've checked / benchmarked) so that CWM would work on it. Problem is, Winamp for example is taking FOREVER to load the thumbnails for my music located on the SD card :/ It's like there's a slow disk...

I found this app that partitions you're sdcard. Yes i know CWM does this in recovery but with this app there's no need to go into recovery as it works straight from you're phone. At the moment it only partitions Fat32, Ext4 and Swap but if you're a developer maybe you could update it. Tested it...

Hi all, just put a SanDisk microSDXC 64GB in my Sensation XE (ARHD 6.6.2) and it works perfectly. As the card comes formatted with extFAT, the phone flags a problem with the card after booting up and asks if the sd card should be reformated. Just do it (make sure you backup everything on the...

When I realized DicePlayer supports hardware acceleration up to 1080p MKV on the Infuse regardless of ROM, I was hit with disappointment that most of my 1080p movies are over 4GB, which is beyond the file size limitation of the FAT32 internal storage partition. Formatting my internal storage to...
