Rooting tab s 8.4 (USA version, wifi only) - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since marshmallow doesn't seem to be happening at all, is there any working marshmallow ROMs for this device yet? Also, my understanding is that marshmallow will work as some sort of RAID setup where the micro SD card and the internal memory are mixed into one so now micro SD card will actually allow to install an entire app on it?
Anything else I need to know to get this done? Thanks very much!

From my understanding of the Marshmallow timeline; I wouldn't give up hope yet. We could be getting sometime in the Spring.

Buying a 16gb device is the worst I've ever done. It's unusable after a few apps. I just wanna be able to consolidate micro SD card and internal memory into one already..

I've got the same model and haven't had any storage issues. But, I don't use many apps at all.

Moving to sd

Hello just bought the gs3 yesterday. I am coming from the s2 which was rooted. I can't seem to transfer apps to the sd card? I am not currently rooted but will be rooting soon.

Samsung intentionally disabled the ability to move apps to the SD card. The reason being they would rather you buy the 32GB or 64GB model instead of buying the 16 GB model and adding an SD card.
If you search XDA, there are a couple of fixes you can flash after rooting to re enable this.

Thanks for the info. If I stay unrooted with the onboard 16 of storage I assume the apps save there and the 2gb of Ram is unaffected?

Space issue

Try directory bind from XDA. I dont have to the link but searching should help. If you can't find it I'll get the link for you.
thank you!!!
Or use the mod that swaps your internel and external memory. You need a kernel that supports it (like Perseus) and if you have a 64gb card your phone will think it has 64gb internal with a 16gb external. That's what I'll do when 128gb cards become available

Hi there,
Just use directory bind, it's extremely easy to use and is free. I moved a lot of my stuff to my micro sd and have over 8 gigs left now on internal. I could free the whole thing but im only installing small apps on the internal now so it should last forever.

Is there some kind of a hardware limitation that note 2 can't use 128gb? because if there isnt it should work fine (hoping ^_^)

I installed one of these and it died. Did not recognise so hif format and now nothing will happen to the card. Tried in PC with exFat compatible card reader and card nof even seen....so beware.

oh right, thats oput doubts in my mind then now, unless someone else has got good advice??
This is work fine just read there are post in this section saying how you need to format, i think if the rom you have is JB then this will be supported as ICS did not support exfat.
Also if you want something better go in for the new Samsung ones they have speed of 90 mbps but not are available in all countries and are very very expensive but the best money can buy
I got 2 of these one still in the package and it work right out of the box
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
It works fine in my N8000. Just poked it in and works fine straight out of the packet. Checked it in the PC and it came as exFat.
I believe in the UK we did not get the update to read exFat and I should have read all posts before ruining the Micro SD.

[Q] Apps to sd

I was just curious if this phone allows you to move apps to your sd card unlike the note 2

No. But it has 32 GB of internal storage so it tends to be plenty.

Couldn't you use Foldermount. If you are rooted I don't see why you couldn't.
Folder Mount @ Google Play
Cause peep are noobs and know nothing about reading lol

Yes you could. I purchased the full version for use with my s3 and s4 and it works a treat. However, is it really necessary with 32gb?
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk 2
You probably can by rooting but seeing how I don't have the phone and was just doing some research on it and my friend is looking at getting the phone and he isn't big into the whole rooting thing but thanksfor your guys help

128GB Sandisk Micro SD

I know our tablet's specs say max of 64GB for mSD.
128GB from Sandisk is out, is there a way to make this work?

I believe it should work fine and the reason they rated at 64gb because at the time there's no 128gb yet. I knew some one who used a regular sdcard to micro sdcard adaptor for 128gb on the Note and it worked!
^this
I've actually done the same thing on my Xoom, and it worked fine.

Aside from putting in an adaptor, do you have to do install some apps or some software tweaking to recognize the card? Or is it just plug and play like any other cards.

Just plug and play. But the adapters are a little delicate, I wouldn't suggest having it loose and flapping around. If you have a case, you can just tuck it in and it should be fine, otherwise I'd suggest taping it down to the tablet. That's how I did it on my Xoom.

And if you dont mind companies like dropbox handing your private data over to the feds. I would set up my own cloud server at home that I could access remotely if I trusted the security. Usb otg 1tb hard drive ftw!!!

Keep us informed about how long it takes to get or shipped A's how slim it works with our note.
as a side note what programs do you guys use to format your sd cards to fat32? The 64 from my note 2 doesn't like the note pro. IT detects it but wont read the files. Shows the used space but can't see anything on it.Very peculiar

I don't format FAT32... Ihave an sd to micro sd cad adaptor with a 128gb sd card installed formatted exFAT... No problems with accessing it.
My note is rooted though...

Mine as well....my note 2 accepts the sd card in exfat. But nithing else will accept it. I even wiped it once but nothing else will read that sd card anymore. Other android device wont even fornat over it. Its very strange. It works perfectly In my phone (and in my replacement note 2 after getting mine replaced)
