I just purchased the Jolla Phone 3 Weeks ago - and now got an extra SD Card.

I bought a Samsung Evo 64 GB, Class 10, UHS-1 (after checking that 64gb seem to work on Jolla):

In the phone (using file browser) it is recognised - under /media/
- but the size is not shown.

So now I am trying to format it to make it work - but this seems to be not possible on the phone.
Also when putting the card into an SD-Adapter, the adapter into and USB-Stick/Card-Reader and plugging this into a pc - only a 26.5 GB Card is shown.
This is for Linux (Netrunner/Kubuntu) and also windows.

First I thought: they made a mistake and it is a 32 GB Card (also the label and the package say 64) - but when searching the net a little others seem to have the 26.5 GB issue to.
Their solutions (the ones I found so far): formatting it using the mobile.
So as this is not yet available for Jolla (at least thats what I found on together.jolla) - I now try to find a way to get the full card size recognised.
I already tested out partition manager on KDE, gparted and the partition manager on Win 7. On all of them only 26.5GB is detected.

If anyone has an idea or knows a solution how to get it to work - this would be great.
PS - I am also not sure about the best format to use for the partition.
