I can confirm that Team venom Viper3D does work with 1.5 hboot s-off. Update 310 was designed for 1.5 and I am on this rom now.

So, this might sound really stupid, but I noticed that the 4EXT app on the Google Play Store is $3.00. Now, I have no qualms with supporting a developer by buying his app. I was just curious if this is necessary to use the 4EXT recovery? I know there is a three day trial app on the 4EXT website too.
My question is, would using the three day trial version mean my 4EXT recovery would stop working after three days? Would I be able to update to future versions of 4EXT recovery following the end of the three day trial? My gut says it should all still work and the app just stops working. I know I sound like a complete newbie here, even though I have been dealing with custom ROMs and recoveries since 2009, but I was always a ClockworkMod Recovery guy. Are there simply flashable zips of this recovery available somewhere? I would like to keep a back up of it, if I can.
I honestly can't answer this as I bought the paid version straight out of the box without using the trial version.
What comes to mind is the app itself would stop working. I don't see why the actual recovery would stop working.
Although someone that has tried the trial would be better to answer this question.
It's not necessary, but recommended to use 4ext. There are alternatives like twrp or clockwork mod (not sure if it's compatible with the 3vo as I've never used it.)

By buying this app, you not only get a feature rich application that lets you control, configure and handle the advanced features of 4EXT Recovery with comfort, you also contribute to the future of the recovery itself!
For a fully functional 3 days preview of all features, please download "Recovery Updater" available on 4EXT Development.
I just grabbed this from the developer's description:
So after the 3rd day, the "advanced" functions would stop working. If the entire app became locked, I think the customer base would be in a big uproar over it. I do wonder how long free updates are given on the paid app. Nothing said about that.
Yes of course, the app won't revise itself--you have to download an update when available and apply it manually. But for the trial version, it has a built-in timer that shuts down functionality after it expires. I don't know how it manages this... you might be able to reset it by removing the trial app and installing it again, but that would be a pain over time.Updates on the paid app are given until the development ceases.
The app itself doesn't get updated, the app notifies you when there is an update for the recovery.
I do see I was in the wrong for my post (considering I had only been awake for 5 minutes when I posted ) though the app is definitely worth the $3 to support the dev.

Hey Brian, would you wanna do some rom testing in a week or so?
DS
As long as I have time. I've been pretty busy lately. What kind of testing? You mean compatibility for this thread?
Somewhat, I've gonna give building a crack within the next week or so. If the wife didn't take over the 3vo, wouldn't need a tester otherwise.
DS
You better not brick my phone Test it on the wife's first!
I wanted to have a go at a rom too, but just haven't had the time to get into it unfortunately... Maybe one day!
You can just go to 4EXT Development
And download 4ext recovery updater for free. This will install recovery and let you use the recovery. The paid app isn't required.
I meant like a flashable .zip file for the recovery or even a PG86IMG.zip file that I could flash directly from HBOOT.
Alright, I guess I am beating a dead horse. It looks like it is only available via the free app. Thanks for the help, folks. Cheers.
