I looked into this recovery when we couldn't flash 4.4 for awhile on the sensation with 4ext. I appreciate your efforts to port a recovery for a device that you don't even own. Kudos to you! I'll try it out when I get ready to flash a new build.

I found anoher bug, the battery status is always presenting 66%, never change. I will keep reporting.

Here are my thoughts:

1) You might mention that you need to wipe cache and reboot recovery after first booting into recovery.
2) Clean to Install a New ROM tries to wipe /sd-ext which our device does not have (not a big deal, but if the build can be told that we don't have that partition it would be good).
3) Full backup seemed to work fine.
4) Mounting the SDCARD and transferring a ROM file worked fine.
5) Installing Vipers 5.1.0 which uses Aroma fails (can't press Next). I thought Aroma installers were supposed to work, but maybe that is a limitation of this recovery?
6) Battery does always report 66%. I left my phone plugged in for over 10 minutes and the clock changed but the battery percent did not.

I have to get Venom installed before heading to work so I'm reverting to 4ext for now.
