Hello, does anyone know if you can use a Sandisk Ultra Micro SD SDXC UHS-I 64GB Class 10 in the Galaxy S3 mini? Was thinking of buying one but definitely want a bit more space. Thanks in advance!

I've seen many reports of that 64gb works just fine. Same with other models as well.
It's just that samsung doesn't test full functionallity with bigger sd than 32gb.

Like for SGSII, Samusng IS stating it supports up to 32GB but I'm using Sandisk Ultra Micro SD SDXC UHS-I 64GB on mine, though I never tried it on SGSIII Mini. I mounted old 8GB class 6 there as my wife does not need more and it was just collecting dust. I could swap for a quicky test, but it's not going to tell you anything re stability etc, just if it mounts or not. I don't want to do it as my wife is using her phone all the time and I really can't see the point in taking it over for the day and waiting ... for something/anything.
Mind you - Sandisk Ultra Micro SD SDXC UHS-I 64GB can be really defective and I trust I was very lucky to get a good one.

The 64GB card's working just fine in my phone, "internal SD-external SD swap" script and all.

Thanks
Great, thanks everyone!

[Q] Externel sd card help

Hi to all again
I'm just woundering will my sgs support a 32gb sd card and also which class dose it support as well as i've been looking at the class 10s.
cheers

Yes the galaxy supports 32gb card, just make sure its a micro damn hard to make a normal one fit! A class 4 would probably be sufficient dont know if you would gain anything with a class 10 and would also be less expensive.

I replaced my Transcend 16GB Class6 microSDHC with a Kingston 32GB Class10.
According to SD-Tools I had 6-7 MB/s before while now it ranges between 9 and 13 MB/s. So write speed is definitely better.
Thanks for the help, were's the best place to get your sd card from.?????.

[Q] does galaxy note support MicroSDHC?

i know that galaxy note support microSD, up to 32GB.
but my question is does galaxy note also support MicroSDHC?
can anyone please tell me
thanks in advance
32GB of micro SD is HC. microSDHC is between 4-32GB
Galaxy Note even supports Micro SDXC - 64gb.
according to NZtechfreak , after format his Sandisk 64GB micro SDXC card to FAT32 then it will work perfectly fine with the galaxy note
ps more detail is here http://www.androidnz.net/2011/09/sandisk-64gb-micro-sdxc-cards-confirmed.html
and from the main topic question : yes its support microSDHC
ps ( a bit more ) :i cant seem to find anywhere that got 64gb one in stock in UK
mobymemory.co.uk has it in stock around £100

confirmed, i have one which makes my note a beast: 32GB internal plus the 64GB sdxc makes a total of 96GB... not bad for a "phone"!
Works fine with my 64gb sdxc too.

If you had checked out the accessories subforum you would have seen a discussion about this allready, btw i love my 64GB Sandisk microsdxc in my note which i have had zero issues with. Search or have a quick look around before making a new topic

Yes, but how is it formatted FAT32 or ExFAT? Only ExFat supports files over 4GB.
I don't think that Samsung provided the ExFat driver in their kernel (it's not free).
Not samsung kernel but abyys kernel support ntfs read/write. I'm using now ntfs formatted 32gb class 10 Samsung micro sdhc card in my galaxy note without a problem. I can totally copy and watch 10gb hd movie with mx player.u can find abyys kernel in this forum.
Running 64 gig everything fine ,put card straight into phone then press format thats it. here is speeds

Hi TML1504. I did not know you could buy a note with 32gb internal memory?
If so where did you purchase from?

Good info here. Thanks.
Well now most micro sd cards are HC. they se even further classified into classes. Cards with most read write speed nowdays are class 10. Though i am using a class 4 card but it us working fine.

Recommend me an SD card.

I'm on a budget here, and I'm looking for an external SD to place all my media.
Thing is, I don't need to have amazing transfer speeds from PC to card.
I just play media on phone, and I don't frequently take videos on my phone.
So what's the best card for me? I suppose class 10 cards aren't a necessity for me right?
I bought a SanDisk 64GB Micro SDXC from Amazon for $45. Don't know what your budget is so it is hard to recommend something.

Yeah I know it's the best. But don't wanna spend excess money on a card which I don't need. Any other suggestions?

Just get a standard Class 10 mSD card. Unless of course you want 64GB in which case you would want to get the SanDisk Ultra 64GB

I totally agree.
Whatever your budget and size-need is; make sure you buy a card that is class 10. Class 4 are too slow for files transfers; they're good for the normal reading of audio and video files but the transfers (in and out) are just a pain-slow...

I bought a SanDisk Micro SDXC but only 32GB
i use sandisk 32gb buyed on Amazon two years ago and Perfect!

WOAH! Anyone have any experience with any of these Sony SD cards? Looks like they're priced to move...
I heard eg class 6 performs better than class 10 in some scenarios.
Is class 10 always the way to go?
I've had a class 4 kingstone micro sd card and it worked extremely fine with media files .. I think class 10 just for media is a little bit far
Sandisk 32 gig class 10 is $22 on amazon. The class 6 is a couple dollars more. You won't need the higher class for what you are doing. Just for basic pics and music a class 6 is fine. Also I advise against the 64 gig if you are using CWM recovery and/or a aosp ROM. They aren't friends.

I have a sandisk sd 64 and I really like it. For most basic users like yourself I would suggest looking for a bargain deal. Amazon has SD cards on sale most of the time, I wouldn't buy anything unless it was on sale if budget is important.
I got Samsung after my SanDisk failed

Recommend a SD card size

What size sd card should I get? Would 2gb be fine?
If you're gonna be installing a lot of software you should probably go with 4+. I believe 2 is sufficient if you have it on hand

Yes I just got a sandisk 16GB Extreme Class 10 45MBPS for 17.00 prime free shipping
Also RPi has a micro SD card adapter, so I am using my old micro SD card from old phone. They are available at adafruit.com or ModMyPi.com. they are cheaper at adafruit.com
Sent from my GT-I9300
The minimum size SD card I would recommend is 8 GB, also check out this list of SD cards that are known to work well with the RPi and this list of SD cards to avoid and that are known to cause problems and not work.
I think 16Gb 10class SD card is best of speed*size/price.
I looking on sandisk extreme 8GB. But I've read that rpi with some kernels have boot problems with some really fast cards.
Sent from my LG-SU660 using xda premium
I you are pretending to really use the rPi as a "real computer" everyday, install softwares, development kits, etc I would recommend a 8GB or more SD card, they are not expensive(as a guy said, a 32GB card will cost less than 30 bucks in USA. This is difficult here in Brazil, today I bought a 8GB MicroSD card for 30 dollars). If you want to use the rPi for small things, Chrome OS or something like that I think that a 4GB card will be fine.
I Picked myself up a couple of these at the start of this year, Class 10's and on the known Good List and only 20GBP at the moment, which is a bargain. Now all I need a RaspPi to go with it

You can be happy getting the 512MB version then, so waiting isn't that bad.
OT: 4GB ist enough for almost everything, but then its recommended to mount /home onto an external drive for storing user data.

I have been using that exact Lexar card you referenced for several months. I used it first in a Galaxy S3, and then moved it over to the Note 2.
I have not had any issues nor corruptions, and have been very pleased with it.
I would buy it again without question!

about sandisk's bad reviews - a while back they had an ultrabad batch of cards that failed pretty consistently and they gained a bad rap for it - apparently they're better / fixed now, but fwiw, i've had every brand fail on me (literally; patriot, lexar, sandisk etc) but I might be the exception to the usage details as I'm swapping machines all day
My last card was a Lexar 32 c10 and it worked perfectly for over a year. It's now in my wife's G3. I've been using a Sandisk 64 c10 for the last few months and it's also working flawlessly. I think you're fine with either one.
i got the Sandisk 32 class 10
that is the first step to do to start using it now ?
format on computer or plug it to the phone directly ?

You could simply plug it in to the phone (while it's off of course) and format the card within the phone as well
I have done that too as well. I recently bought a 32gb micro sd for my Note2 sgh-i317 and for my gs3 a 64gb micro sd sgh-i747
