What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. create some ext4 encrypted partition with TC.

  1. a 2000MB partition, a 3000MB partition, a 4000MB partition
  2. all on the external_sd card What is the expected output? What do you see instead? the 2000MB partition seems to work allright on the 3000MB & 4000MB partitions the TC formatting in ext4 fails with Error: error: file_write: write: I/O error Looking inside these partition i can't see the magic number of ext4 trying to manually mount these partition from their loop devices the mount command cannot mount them in ext4.

The 2000MB partition works allright What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? cryptonite-ALPHA-0.6.15.apk Samsung N7000 , ICS 4.0.4 - LRG official samsung. Please provide any additional information below. I'm a programmer ... i think some variable or funcion call parameter wraps at 2GB so truecrypt acts uncorrectly un these large volumes. I have see the patches in issue 18 , maybe there are other points in the code that must be patched. EG : maybe the 'int' data type in ARM compiler is 32 bit (in android) but in intel linux is 64 bit ? EG : some use of 'long int' or 'long long int' are disaligned between arm toolchain and intel compilers? http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.dui0491c/Babfcgfc.html .
