Archos 101 G9 Turbo ICS 8GB with 64GB Micro SDXC

[wiredawgy]

Hello All
I just installed the SanDisk 64GB Micro SDXC memory card in my tablet.
When I first put it in, the tablet didnt recognise it, and said that it was ok to eject the Micro SD Card.
When I received it, it was formatted in xcNTF or something like that format.
I reformatted it in the NTFS format, which was the only option other then the xc one.
I put it back in to my tablet, and it sees it just fine.
Shows 59.46GB total space, and then available amount.
So I am happy to say, that yes you can put 64GB of RAM into your 101 G9 Turbo with ICS installed.
A happy Archos Tablet User.

why bother saying so, when other posts in this forum have already reported this?

Being new here, I didnt know that there had been other posts. I was just excited that I could do it, and was hoping to let others know. My apologies for being dumb, and wasting your time.
Now if you can tell me which post to go to for instructions on how to run my apps from the sd card, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you for the post

To summarise other posts, you can't run apps from the SD card. It's a feature common to Honeycomb and ICS. Basically, earlier Android devices did not have much flash, so people developed ways of moving individual apps (and more importantly, their data) to a removable card. Trouble is, things can go wrong if the card is removed! Nowadays devices have more flash, the Android developers have disabled this capability in recent releases. You can, however, use the removable card for your media files, and most apps will be able to cope with this.

Since the is almost no conceivable need to run ics apps from a card, aside from the impossibility... i bet the issue is how to store an app apk file on a card so you can pass it around when away from wifi. Try es file manager app or other backup apps.
