  Needed because "ext_sd" directory isn't present anymore in latest Android versions. Big thanks to dthomp01 for reporting and testing!

  Thanks to dthomp01! If you are on 4.2, please upgrade to the latest build (66) of 4EXT Recovery 1.0.0.5 RC9 testing (available on 27th January).
  

• Preliminary support for ext file systems instead of fat32
  

  In conjunction with 4EXT Recovery v1.0.0.6 it will be possible to use ext3/4 instead of fat32 on your sdcard's first partition for those few Roms that support this configuration. Big thanks to "a_user"!

4EXT Recovery Control v2.4.4

Fixes

• "no valid zip file" errors on some Android 4.2 roms

If your recovery version is too low, Recovery Control will inform you about that when you try to flash a zip on those roms. Big thanks to Marwin and Ebola for reporting and a lot of testing!
