Help / Input please.

Razr HD, unlocked, TeslaROM, Philz 6.57.x Recovery. KKBL.

Tried to flash CM 12 - flashed no problem - crashed a few times via bluetooth, etc. No worries, I knew I was flashing early builds. Used backup to return to Tesla.
Read some more, and wondered if my recovery might be helping force some of the other issues I was seeing on CM12.

Looked for update to Philz, and found 6.58.x. Flashed it, lost custom recovery. I could not get Philz back at all, any version
Tried flashing CWM, it would not boot into recovery.
Flashed newest TWRP and it works - but Lost my back ups I made with Philz, so I cannot start over, that I know of.

So, now I"m sitting on TWRP, and I've tried several Philz and CWM recoveries - none work. I've backed up using TWRP so I'm willing to try something else.

Why do you think I lost ability to boot all but TWRP? Is there a version of Philz (I heard it is not supported anymore) I should now have? Is there a CWM version that works on KKBL that I haven't found?

Any thoughts appreciated.
