twrp not support kitkat 4.4.4

Twrp is definitely supported. It's the only custom recovery I've used on the Moto X

Sent from my XT1060

This works just fine on 4.4.4 on my 1st gen moto x -> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/234 I downloaded the 2.7.1.1 IMG from -> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/ghost and flashed with mfastboot. That is what I'm still using, but others have successfully used the 2.8.x versions.

Just remember you have to reboot-bootloader and go into recovery IMMEDIATELY after flashing or it wont stick. example:

mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader

{use the phone's on screen instructions to select recovery}

what difference between CMW TOUCH and twrp and which is better ?

Don't know. TWRP was the first custom recovery available for the X, so that is what I've used.

I haven't used CWM since my HTC Thunderbolt. (which is a while ago)

The "better" recovery is the one you prefer.

Theres a toolkit in the android development section that does pretty much everything for you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/tool-moto-x-toolkit-v1-4-0-t2477132
