Mine is no where near as good as yours - you've got some real skill!
Hmm.. I put this in the theme folder in TWRP and booted up recovery. Now TWRP is in like a boot loop of sorts and if I force the TP to reset it skips the Moboot and goes right to recovery boot looping all over again.
I'm not sure what to do since I can't even get to Moboot.
I am on TWRP 2.1

Try to completely power it off by pressing and holding the power button and the home button for like 10-15 seconds.
Do you know how to use ADB?

I did do that but when I turn it back on it just boots straight to Android recovery. The Moboot screen flashes for a split second then just goes to recovery. Then proceeds to boot loop.
I have used ADB on the TP in the past but currently in the process of wiping my computer so I'll have to get everything set back up for it. I'm not an expert in ADB but if I know what commands to enter I can do it.

Connect your TP with your PC, hold Power and Home and as soon you can hear the connection sound push Power-Up as often you can.

So if I understand you correctly I'm trying to get to WebOS recovery? From there I can delete the file in "themes" using ADB and try and reboot. (what would that CMD look like? ) And if that doesn't work I guess I could run ACMEuninstall.

This is all very odd as I don't seem how a theme could cause all of this damage...
If you can get ADB to recognize the TouchPad you can try a command like
Code:
adb reboot
or to delete the theme
Code:
adb shell
rm /sdcard/TWRP/ui.zip

Yeah, android is an open platform, meaning anyone can take the system and put out their own device with the android OS on it. (Speaking in very loose terms).
Which basically means there are blueprints (sources) to build all the individual android components. Recovery Environment (Recover Kernel + Recovery Executable?) being one of them.
For people into this sort of stuff, it is fun/interesting to actually go, use the blueprints, and build your "own version" of all the various components. Why? Because it's fun just to see if you can.
Arayray has already built a ROM, so why not a recovery to go with it? Next maybe a kernel? Etc. Heck, one could even build a bootloader (Hboot) if they wanted, although that might be difficult as it could be rather hardware specific (and require proprietary info).
Tis the nature of android, all the tools are available, and are open for you to play with. It's also a great/fun way to learn. It's the 21st century version of building models, or RC Airplane kits, etc. Putting something together yourself, and watching it work. Can be very satisfying.

Im sure its possible, I know you can use commands in ADB like: adb shell reboot bootloader to reboot into fastboot, adb shell reboot recovery to reboot into recovery, youd just need to make the button to do the equivalent in android. (Since theirs no adb in terminal)
I have nothing to contribute...

Does the wipe all option wipe everything, including /system? Or is it the equivalent to the factory reset wipe option in CWrecovery?
You can partition from psfServiceMod recovery (it's a ps3 jailbreak recovery based on clockwork) so I'm sure arayray just needs to find the code that's used (there's bound to be info on it on the net somewhere) and implement it.

It wipes /data and /cache, no recovery wipe /system until you flash a .zip. So use "Wipe all" and then flash a rom, or choose individually which to wipe.

Hey i have a question. One of the best features i loved about Amon RA recovery was when you turned on your phone you could auto boot into recovery by holding down home key. Is that going to be a feature enabled in this recovery?

For the life of me, I cannot boot back into ClockWorkMod to install the latest DJ_Steve ROM. I previously was able to flash my Streak, but now I can't anymore. Granted, I don't play with my Streak as much as with my Captivate, but still, I should remember how to do this.
Here is what I do:
I open CWM
I click on Flash CWM Recovery
I wait for the "success" message
Then I click on Reboot into Recovery
Nothing happens... I power down and boot back normally
I've also tried this:
I open CWM
I click on Flash CWM Recovery
I wait for the "success" message
Then I click on "Install ROM from SD Card"
I navigate and choose my update.zip file; click Yes, Yes, etc.
Nothing happens. I power down and boot back normally

Now I've tried the above by holding, after step 4, the Power and Camera buttons, the Power and Volume Up/Down button, Power and Vol. Down, Power and Vol. Up, etc. You get the idea ...
I either end up into the white menu for Fastboot, or end up into (what I think is) the stock recovery. There I choose "Install Update from SD Card" and then the phone waits forever at the "Detect SD" menu.
What is it that I should do? can someone please either shoot me or post some kind of detailed step-by-step, as if explained to a five year old
Thanks in advance!

I actually never could get ClockWorkMod to work on my streak no matter which version I picked. I got just as frustrated as you as I followed all of the given instructions and could never boot into CWM.
My suggestion (and the workaround I used) was to use fastboot and install StreakMod in the development section. It works 100% of the time for me and without any headaches.
With cwm I couldn't make a nandroid. Streakmod is the way to go.

My problem is, I run Windows as a VM inside a Mac (using Fusion) so I tried installing the Fastboot drivers and the rest, but I can't make it work reliably. It's like the drivers don't like being in a VM or something, each time I want to communicate with the Streak I have to reinstall everything.
So I tried installing StreakMod, and that also failed. Is there, somewhere in a post, the exact way to install StreakMod? Maybe I can make it work on someone else's PC...
I thoght there was a fastboot for MAC. If so, can you use it to push the recovery?

The android sdk has a version of fastboot I believe.
Edit: I DLed the mac version and do not see fastboot there. I found a mac version on this page, but I have no idea if it will work with the Streak.
Prerequisites:
1. You need an unlocked boot loader.
2. You need root.
3. You need a PC with adb that can see your phone
4. Your phone needs to have USB debug enabled
All of these are well documented here in the forum.
On the PC grab the two apk files that the UOT kitched needs:
Code:
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk
Now go to the UOT kitchen and choose your battery style from the battery tab.
Next click on the "File Upload" tab and upload your two files.
Then submit your work to the kitchen and wait.
When the kitchen is done processing, you have a download called UOT-*.zip. download that. And extract it somewhere on your PC. Now you need to push the files to your phone.
Code:
adb push SystemUI.apk /data/local/SystemUI.apk
adb push framework-res.apk /data/local/framework-res.apk
Next you need to adb shell to the phone to remount the system partition as read-write and copy the files to their correct location. From the PC run "adb shell" Then, on the phone:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /system
cp /data/local/SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk
cp /data/local/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
cd /data/dalvik-cache
rm *
Then reboot the phone. When it comes back up you should have your customized battery.
NOTE: This is all from memory so there may be some minor inconsistencies but the general concept is sound. The main thing you MUST do is unlock the bootloader and you MUST have root (temp-root should be fine)
NOTE 2: There are a lot more things that you can customize using the UOT Kitchen. I've only changed the battery but you should be able to change icons, taskbar, lockscreen and more. So, if you are comfortable doing so, have at it.
And one final note. This is the brute-force method. Once a CWM recovery is created for the Amaze then most (all?) of this is unnecessary and you can just flash the UOT zip file from recovery.

I agree 100% with this.
We need to be able to do backups with Clockwork as well as use other scripts such as fix_permissions, clear dalvik-cache, etc to prevent bricks, FC errors, etc.

If I'm not by a PC can I rename to PH98IMG.zip and install via bootloader? I do realize this currently is a .img
You can't through the bootloader with this img. However there are some instructions floating around on a method to do it through terminal emulator but if you find them you'll need to make sure they are for the rezound.
Once I get home from work ill package them up in a bootloader zip and ill see if I can't get the right partition info so they can be flashed from terminal.

My phone is freezing/locking up a few seconds after loading the OS and I can't transfer any of my photos over since the phone jams and the connection stalls
I've tried a multiple solution regarding this problem but it won't go away.
Is there a way perhaps using adb I could retrieve my data without loading into the OS.
I cannot modify the phone in any way since it's under warranty and i will be getting it exchange soon.

You should be able to activate USB Debugging in the Maintenance Boot Mode if you don't already have it. If you hold Volume Down and Power for like 10 seconds, you should boot into this and have that option. If the phone can still boot to the system, even if it freezes up when loaded, hopefully you can still adb pull the /sdcard/ with adb. Other than that, without loading a custom recovery, which will trip Knox, then there's not much to do.
I don't have the option for maintenance boot mode on the note 5.

Hmm. Safe mode is supposed to activate if you hold volume down after you let go of power but if you hold both together it should boot to the maintenance mode. Not sure why it's not working for you. I have booted into it with some S7s but have not tried with a Note 5, I don't think, but there's video proof it does have it. Unless your carrier had it disabled for some reason or you're not getting the timing right, not sure what to tell you.

Is this good, and can anyone guide me through in how to retrieve data if possible?

You'll have to see if you get prompted to authorize on the phone when you reboot before it freezes... I hadn't tried this before without having the phone authorized as it's one of the first things I do with my phone because of stuff like this...

I've tried booting in the OS with the adb connection but no option shows up to authorize anything unless it's somewhere else?

Leave phone plugged in and reboot and in command prompt type :
adb wait-for-device devices
When you reboot and PC recognizes it, this should bring up the prompt.

Alright I was able to click the prompt and the check box to remember the device before it locked up. I then rebooted it into maintenance mode which only shows me a black screen btw and adb still notes unauthorized in the CMD window

I swear I'm fed up with this **** and it's stupid lockup. I can't do **** before it freezes up on me. I'm so frustrated already.

You should be able to pull the sdcard with adb while it's booted even though the OS is not responding.

The phone is currently frozen and adb is recognizing the device. Not sure if this works or not but what command do I type to get the dcim folder. It's where my photos are located?

adb pull /sdcard/DCIM/
and
adb pull /sdcard/Pictures
Some other apps save pictures there too.
