Root Fresh 4.3.3 Question

I upgraded to Fresh 4.3.3 and was trying to install the fix for the Vanilla Lock screen. When I do, it keeps saying that the SD card won't mount. I have verified that the sd card is readable as I updated to 4.3 just yesterday from the file on the card. When looking on my computer, the file is present on the card in the location it's supposed to be in.

Any ideas on a fix for this?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry. This is happening in recovery mode. Either using Fresh Updater or manually going into recovery and choosing the zip. In Fresh Updater, it says that E:/sdcard/download/name of file.zip can't be mounted and installation aborted. Then when I go in manually, the file doesn't show up to install. I've overwrote the file several times and verified it exists by looking at my computer after turning on USB disk drive.

Any other ideas?

Hope this helps.

I believe its Anon Recovery. Don't need to unzip the files as it does it automatically. The files are downloaded OTA from Fresh Updater.

try doing it from your computer. download the latest fresh rom from your computer, transfer the file over to the sd card, make a nandroid backup, wipe at least dalvik cache, cache and data, and flash the rom from your recovery. i do not always trust the updaters that comes with roms.

also all zip files needs to stay zipped in order to flash them.

I'll give that a try. I usually don't have any problems with the Fresh roms. I'm hoping my memory card's not going bad. Is that possible? It's less then 3 years old. I did pull the card and clean it as well as doing a unmount and mount via the phone.

I also verified with ES File Viewer that the file I need exists on the card. There are two files, a zip file and a md5sum file for the same file name.

Thanks
