but you said in your last post you manually updated the tab with a rom?.

if you try to login the tab should give you the option to switch on wifi.

if you cannot remember your google login check your other e-mail addresses for the confirmation email you would have received to set your secondary address. this will contain your google account info.
[Acer Iconia A500] multor:
no

I have the tablet since one year and I'm upgrading it though Wifi.

My last upgrade was done through Wifi to ICS.

Now issue is that as my daughter locked the laptop I can not enter in.

I'm not able to activate the Wifi or the USB debug as I can't log in.

I can not go back to either the draw login (what could be the best solution for me)

now it is asking me only the google account and every time it is rejecting my password

the issue is that even on the google recovery tool with my mail address, the site is not sending me the password to my mail address but it is asking me only to change it what I did but as there is no Wifi activated and as I can't login I'm always at the same point.

I insist on the fact that this is a proper tablet, that this is mine, that I have box and invoice.

So now I'm trying to restore other roms to have a clean tablet or even better just be able to redo the draw (this I remember).

But now everytime I'm login in it is display 'too many attempts' and asking me the google account

:eek:

A friend came round with his new iconia to put software on it,

however when he tried to unlock it, he had already forgotten his password swipe.:eek: (he had'nt even had it a day...).

Eventually I managed a full (factory) reset, that wiped everything.

It was one of these 2 methods (I think it was the one using the rotation lock, but I may have done the other one first).

Hope it helps :)

*edit*

The exact sequence I did was this

1. Switch off

2. Press Vol-up + Power

3. If display goes on: Release power but hold vol-up

3. Toggle Lock switch (On>Off>On>Off)

Screen will display:

It would help and be slightly less confusing if you stopped referring to the tablet as a 'laptop'. A laptop is an entirely different device from an Acer Iconia tablet.

Hi,

I try method 1 and it worked fine !!!!

In fact the tip is to stay 3 sec and Power button and to play with lock button when tablet vibrates - staying with finger on volume + button

My data have been erased but I don't really care. Good news is that I can now use again my tablet. I have now to reinstall the games for my son. he will be happy.

You save my life ! Thanks !

[Galaxy S II Accessories] bigdyl69:
Hi all, this may have been asked a thousand times but I cannot find a definitive answer to this. I bought a 64GB Sandisk Micro SD Class 6 card to use for all my games and stuff. I received it today and tried putting it in my phone. It always shows as damaged card, so I tried the proper steps of pulling down the notification bar, selecting the card and the phone told me it would need formatting, so I clicked format.

But to my dismay the bloody phone formatted the internal USB storage so I lost all my pictures and personal stuff!!!

To add insult to injury, I cannot get this bloody card to format and work no matter what I try. I haven't formatted or partitioned it in my PC, only tried through the phone.

Please, please can anyone help??? :(:(:(:(
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bigdyl69:
Got it sorted. Mods can delete this thread if need be
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Scarface1991:
Maybe you should tell how you did it for other people with the same problem. I was also thinking of buying this 64 GB SD-Card and who knows maybe I stumble upon the same problem ;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bigdyl69:
Sorry, I would have posted it up as soon as I sorted it but I was in a flap trying to get my phone back up and running properly.

What it seems to boil down to is that custom ROMs generally don't format the external SD cards correctly, or so I read somewhere on a thread on XDA (I think it was in the T989 thread or something like that). I used the free EaseUS Partition Manager tool to first remove the partition on the card (64GB formatted to exFAT), then create a new 64GB Fat32 partition. I don't know whether it was necessary but I flashed Samsung standard LP7 Rom to my phone and fully factory reset the phone.

After that was done, I inserted the 64GB card, booted up and went through settings-> storage and erased the SD card to make sure it was formatted correctly for the S2

...and voila :D

Hope that helps someone out

[Galaxy S II Accessories] cga_ie:
My SD card was working out of the box with Galaxy S2. I just formatted it and that was it

Just got a Galaxy S3 last week and the same SD was driving me insane with message

SD damaged after copying 59 GB of music to the phone

It was playing music without problem but as soon I restart the phone it would through error SD damaged

After so many tests I just found out that KIES is the one was corrupting my SD card

I tried copying my music with Sandisk data manager, mediamonkey, adding music folders manually and it works flawlessly, restart and not problem

All this app recognize Galaxy S3 quicker than SAmsung KIES, KIES takes a while sometimes to connect to the phone

Hope Samsung update KIES because it doesn't work with GALAXY S3 for uploading 59 gb of music

I was about to send my SD to amazon and get a refund, thanks I didn't do it

Happy days after so many days of testing
[Galaxy S II Accessories] aneeqkhan:
Hi guys

I also had the same issue with sandisk 64 gb card but couldnt find any solution n had to get two cards returned.... i dont use kies or any other thing. It also got damaged on first restart after copying 30+gb data on it. Couldnt find a damn solution. Now i have ordered a kingston 64 gb one to c if it makes any difference. Any idea by anyone to check it in a proper manner n maje it properly usable?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Accessories] laudon11:
Tnx

A million thanks, I wanted to throw away my 64Gb card and I've payed 70$ for it, but after formatting with EaseUS Partition Manager to Fat32 it works just fine :) I've tried with Windows a 100 times with no results.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] luke2007:
EaseUS Partition Manager def did the job!

here comes the weird bit:

connecting the 64gb micro sd with this

to my pc shows 29 gb in easeUS.

while inserting it in my phone it shows 59.4 gb

using this type of adapter

and connected to the pc with a sd - to - usb adapter:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf-JAVA/Doc/images/550/c01650840.jpg

it will show 59.4 gb in easeUS as well :)

does that make any sense at all?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] djase:
I bought this to put into my Samsung Galaxy S3 and opted for the Sandisk name due to previous purchases and reputation. Many people have said to format the card via the phone before use so I did this, or tried to, but it just kept saying that it was in an incompatible format and the process could not be carried out! Ok, a little frustrating but I thought I'd just use the supplied adapter and format it via my laptop. Similar message from Windows - not able to complete the format, the disc may be corrupted!!! I tried this several times on both the pc and the phone and nothing. Very poor in my opinion and it has been returned for a refund.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] JGPicatoste:
Thanks! This really saved my day :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] yugotprblms:
I ended up getting a 64gig Sandisk super duper card (or whatever it is called). I plugged it into my computer via a USB adapter, and it worked fine. Then I formatted it in FAT32 with the tool suggested in previous posts, and that worked fine. Then as I was copying stuff over (it was still plugged into the computer, my phone was in USB mode transferring data), the transfer froze. I unplugged it, and it was warm. So I tried again, it worked for a bit, and then would freeze. Not sure what the issue was. So I returned it to Best Buy, and they are sending me a new one. Hopefully this one works.

Any tips or suggestions other than formatting it with that utility? Could it really just have been the card itself?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Vaesar:
Got one last night, formatted it using the program suggested, no dice. Getting a "damaged card" notification, nothing I can think of is working.

Formatted on my PC, formatted using a Mac, formatted using a linux terminal, nothing seems to work.

Anyone have any ideas on what else I can do to rectify this issue? :/

Or is it safe to assume that it's a defective card?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rajamar:
Hi, know what you're going through. See my post at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1698672&page=9

If it doesn't work I suspect you really have a damaged card. There are some known bad batches.

Had an a media scanning issue on my new SGIII (At&T), from my sandisk 64 card. which was previously formated at 32. I used OP's method and so far so good. I also transfered my files to pc and ran defragler on them as i had a media scan issue. I transfrered all pictures with no intent on putting them back since they were from my old atrix. No problems as yet. I will try to transfer from phone to pc to see if i get the freezing. If i do, you will hear back from me. If not THanks OP:D:good:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Arjunsm:
try to format it using your pc. (as a FAT32)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Dion van Wessum:
format 64GB

What you should do is download a free partitioner program like Easeus Parttition manager. You should make two partitions on your sd card with a max of 32 GB. Format both of them as Fat 32. Once done, put it back in your phone, it is now recognized and you can reformat the card in your phone. It pops up as a 64 GB card now.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] moad27:
The ultimate solution !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First u have to use an external card reader coz 99% of the problem is that i mean do not use ur laptop card reader but use a multicards reader coz laptops card reader r not designed for micro sd 64Go once u plug in ur micro Sd u should run a small software BOOTICE ( it's been attached to this post ) , u will see the real size right after in th picture 1

Fist u should update ur exFAT ( look to the attached files)

after that follow the steps on pic 2 , 3 , 4 ...the idea is to reformat ur card with single partition with exFAT and not FAT32 the exFat is an update given with microsoft it's been attached also.

Remember the prob comes from ur card reader ;) and always use an external cards reader like the one used to format ur sdcard ....if u have any other question am here

warm regards :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kreko:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] dlads:
Hi,

Thanks for your idea, but i'm trying to get my SD as FAT32, but i'm having trouble seeing the full card. Is there anything you can suggest? My card is showing up as 27GB when formatted as exfat, it's 59GB (64GB)

My aim is to use an AOSP rom and i am unable to use the exfat file system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] dimspace:
I had no problems with mine. I always use minitool partition wizard.(i prefer it to easus, have both but only use minitool)

32gb card, put it the pc formatted card as fat32, and made sure to check the "primary partition" box, couple of minutes later, reboot phone, all working just dandy. (the primary partition bit is crucial)

if you are partitioning to have an sd-ext in other phones then set sd-ext as primary
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vantt1:
I think all 32GB cards work fine in the Galaxy Note without any additional formatting. My 32GB card worked straight away in my older Galaxy S2. The problem I'm having is with 64GB cards, because it isn't officially supported in the specifications. Many people have CLAIMED to get them working by formatting them to FAT32 using a third party partition manager, but personally I've never gotten any of the two 64GB cards that I own working in my Galaxy S2.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jhonecide:
same problem i have:crying:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] chappaaii:
It's simply not compatible

SD cards, including TF cards, use different standards.

In order to mount a TF/SD card bigger than 32GB, your device need to have SDHC support.

From the materials that I can find I see that i9100 do not have SDHC support, while i9300 and later smartphone products do.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] pl4sMa:
Not sure on a Windows system. However, on a Linux box you can just repartition the card to exFAT and then the phone will read it just fine.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Izy:
Your wrong unless you meant sdxc SDHC is for cards 4gb + up to 32gb and readers with sdhc can read sdxc cards even though support isn't stated I have seen many devices use them such as galaxy notes and the moto atrix 4g I think someone even put one in a wildfire s at some point
[Galaxy S II Accessories] stoatwblr:
Yes. Your SD reader isn't SDXC compatible (The adaptor you're using simply extends the wires to the larger format)

I'd say "update your hardware", but you already have a microSD to USB adaptor, so you don't need it.

It does mean that you can't used SD cards larger than 32Gb in that reader but as long as you know about the limitation it's not a problem.
