Dual microsd partitions 128 GB CM13 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! I have a question. I would like to purchase a 128 GB MicroSD card for my sgs4 running CM13 nightlies and split the memory card into 2 partitions and through that way have more memory than what Samsung says it can manage. Am I needed to do it this way or can the CM rom handle it anyway?

I don't see the point in splitting. Any sd card will work with the s4. It's just that when the s4 came out 64gb was the maximum size of a sd card. 128gb will work fine.

Can i split it and use one partition with the internal storage function and the other as Portable storage

I don't think it's infinite. At some point micro sdcards will change technology in order to achieve higher speeds and bigger storage capacity. At that point there will be a compatibity issue.

Total strip-down to replace? Takes a braver man than me!
i think the real question is why would you need to change the internal one. 2gb of app storage is pretty damn awesome to say the least i mean im only using 285mb and ive got over 100apps installed

That is true plenty enough just read about someone putting a 32gig as the internal memory and he has a 32gig sd card so he has 64 gig

32GB class 1 would be slow for apps/performance. for storage its alright so if you want a higher capacity for internal app storage, get a speedier 16gig card or wait for better 32gig cards.

It makes since. I mean if you look at it; laptops and desktops can hold more space then tablets right not, so the logical thing for them to do would be to make sd cards that can hold more.
Bigger on the inside...

This will not work with your xoom or most devices out right now for that matter. It requires a SDXC slot to read the card (xoom and most devices have SD slot) and the card is not backward compatible. So dont rush just yet.

Aww, you kinda rained on my party lol, but you did probably save me as well as many other people a bit of money
If you are _VERY_ lucky a firmware update could enable or does someone know it needs new hardware?

Good call! Thanks for sharing. It would've been pretty crappy to find this out the hard way.
The Xoom uses the SDHC standard and will never support SDXC. No, a firmware update will not change this fact.
Well, we always have the USB OTG cable option if we use up both the internal and external 32GB memory. The price of the card is just to high now anyway.
Ya know they could have put a bay in for hdd. That would solve the problem.

Yes, these cards work in Android devices after formatting them from exFat to Fat32:

remember laptops/desktops have a lot more capacity as u say BUT (and a big but) check apps size of android vs PC/Laptops - i'd say 32GB are like 320GB on a PC - mind u i have 5 *2TB in my Gigabyte 3d Aurora tower ^___^

Get you a good microsd card, I just got a 128 gb SanDisk microsd card...the latest versionm..it's very fast with reads and writes
Not sure why there would be a need for 64gb internal storage option when sd card can expand to 128gb as well as the fact most people have free cloud storage of many gig as well
only 24GB

As far as I know you can't move apps to SD card
That`s the reason I didnt buy yet Note 4. The internal storage is too little for this flagship.
No one`s know if will be in the next 2-3 months a 64GB ?? More I cannot wait.
The 64gig models are usually very rare because Samsung takes its sweet time to release them and when they do, its in very little quantity. If you are desperate to load 10+ huge games on your device, just move everything else to the microSD and commit your internal just for these apps. 32GB is enough really...
Maybe for you, the internal storage is used better for 4k recording, with microSD it lags sometimes (or when I modify [they are some hacks already] the bitrate to higher I dont want to think what can happen to a microSD)

Performance Impact of Honor 5X when 64GB external memory card is installed?

Hi All @xda,
I wanted to inquire if anybody has hands-on experience of using a 64 gb memory card with the Honor 5X smartphone and also does the phone support installing apps on external SD card.
Any leads will be helpful as I'm about to buy the phone.
TIA ,
Sarvesh

I have a 64GB Class 10 (Extreme Sandisk) micro-SD in phone and was able to transfer an App to SD with no problem.
I got a 128 GB class 10 in mine and everything seems well. Haven't tried to put any apps on the SD card though.

Does the phone start to hang after data is filled up in the SD card?.I mean does the performance(snappyness) slows down?

No issues here as well. I have tried with both 32GB and 64GB cards.
Just make sure that you are using a Class 10 card.

I'm currently using a Sandisk Class 10 and it's quite good, but it's over 1 year old, there maybe better version out there. However, note that Mi A1 does not support 128GB sd card by default, you have to format it with the phone or install a kernel that supports Exfat. The only kernel working for me is Canting, I tried others like Moun or Extreme but neither of them worked.

You're trying to say that 128gig SD cards are supported only if formated to exFat right? Because according to GSMarena 128 gig cards are supported by default. I've also read that even 256 gig cards are supported.

I'm using 128GB Sandisk Extreme Pro V30 A2. It improves 4k recording. Also, I didn't have to format, I'm using it right out of the box.

Yeah, that's what I mean. To me, "support" means plug it in and it works without doing anything else. This is the only thing I hate with Mi A1, supports 128gb sd cards but do not support Exfat.

I can confirm they do work, just search XDA forums here and you'll see threads about 256 GB cards working.

Thanks, friend. I've read a little around, but I found some interesting questions... and reported bugs.
1) Some people says our device should be able to support up to 2TB because of its technology, however 128GB was told because it was the standard in that moment.
2) Other people says SDcard size is reporting wrong size and free space (telling that Oreo and Pie is reporting the double of the real size of those cards).
So, my idea is to know what's the true around this, if this is a problem related to the type/category of the SDcard itself, or if this is related only to Stock ROM (Don't know if this is happening on custom ROMs also).
I don't know what causes that bug, but I also want to know what's the true maximum size Mi A1 allows, and under which conditions.
I want to buy a large sized SDcard, trying to reach the limit that device allows, but I can't try it before buying it ($$$$)
My idea is to keep it as internal storage, unless you have a better idea.
Thanks in advance!

From what I read, the double bug only happen when the card is used as internal storage.
Is the size bug happening only with cards bigger than 128GB or also 128? Because if bigger sdcards cause issues, I would save myself the money and just buy 64GB or something.

I read it happens with any size, but I don't know if those reports come from stock or custom ROMs exclusively.
