Uninstall your old rom manager because it doesnt support g2, download the new one, flash clockwork mod-select g2 as your device- wait for it to download and flash he recovery. Btw i would suggest you click fix permissions first before doing any of that

just like others said, make sure you have the latest rom manager (i believe its v2.5.0.7). are you seeing a "G2" option when you click flash clockwork recovery?
clockwork mod for noob
I finaly decide to root my G2( and S-Off ). So I use CyanogenWiki procedure without section about Flashing the Engineering HBoot with is denger and optional.Next I was uninstall no need stock soft (mp3 amazon finance or listen).Today I try to backup everything with clockwork mod.
1. Is the procedure with ROM Manager safe?
2.Do i need to do something else after geting perma root and s-off to install clockwork mod ? (still don't know what for is Engineering HBoot)
3. After instaling clockwork mod or after rooting I will stop geting official updates ?
4. Do i have to buy a prem version of ROM Manager or free market version will do the job ?
5. How to flash clockwork v3 and is there reason to do that ?

Lots of q's
Ok
1.Clockwork mod is very safe
2.No. If you have Perma-rooted your phone you are good to go
3.After installing it you can receive OTA updates if you are using STOCK rom
but its best to not update via OTA at risk of losing root. I was already had
temp root when we got the OTA in US and I had no problem but be warned
4.The free version is fine. But its always good to buy the paid version for added benefits and to help dev out

Sometimes it takes a couple of times before recovery sticks, so if you get the red triangle just reflash the recovery again untill it sticks.

Eng. Hboot is not required to flash a custom rom, but obviously perm-root is. Im guessing you got that quote "Perm Root with hboot-eng.....is needed to flash a custom ROM (still REQUIRED for the moment)" from the CM7 Nightly thread, but there is a way to flash CWM3 without an ENG. Hboot ( it requires terminal emulator) and also the CM7 nightly rom.
Any idea how to install CM7 from stock less risky way then hboot ? How about flashing CM 6 and upgrading to 7 ?

If the HBOOT required comment was for just CWM3, then there are guides already out there (including one stickied in this forum):

i have successfully s off my desire(offical gb updated) with reolutionary pre release....
i do not want to install cm recovery ...
how can i root my phone....?
the zip file for adding super user is not working with default recovery of desire ..
simply installing super user app i am not getting root permissions for apps
and via adb i am unable to remove system apps
i just want to remove couple of apps from system .....
You need a custom recovery like cwm or amonra. Why do you think you don't want this essential component?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
actually i have never experimented much with cm recovery options and never want to use or intend so.....
i just need to kick out few system apps like google maps ..............
so with out s-0n it was not working
but with s -off still unable to remove apps access denied error ( via adb )
Yes because the rom needs root, which you need custom recovery to do
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Just install CWM already! It's a very handy piece of software (nandroid back-ups etc.), even if you're not a custom ROM aficionado.

Moving to Q&A
guys how to root with out cm recovery .............?
What's your problem with cwm? Why don't you go s-off with revolutionary and then flash another recovery? You do not have to use cwm recovery. If you really want to avoid it, I would say you should ask the revolutionary team via irc. Maybe they tell how to change recovery before running their program.
i just want to remove few system apps from stock ginger bread ...........
so just tell me a way to do it ...........
what difference does it make to you whether you do or you do not have a custom recovery? Furthermore... I don't even know if flashing a superuser binary would even work on the stock gingerbread so you might not be able to root it.
reading and searching forum i came to conclusion that with s 0ff i can delete system apps .......
but still i am unble to remove system apps ..
when i try to remove apps from system permission denied error is faced ......
on further investigation came to conclusion i also need root access for removing system apps

Hi there! here is CWM flashable rooting and unrooting method..
I'm sure this works on all Android phones with CWM..
Benefits:
- you can unroot custom ROMs
- rooting and unrooting can be done on all ROM with CWM
- you can UNROOT custom ROMs as long as your busybox is installed in /system/xbin
or, if your Superuser.apk, su binary, and BusyBox is old, and you are lazy to update manually, you can do it with this!
NOTE: ONLY USE CWM RECOVERY
HERE'S THE LINK: ROOT and UNROOT
IF YOU RUNNING SOMETHING AS ROOT (SUPERSCRIPT, ETC.), DO NOT UNROOT! YOU MAY GET BRICK
AND UNROOTING MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS ON SOME CUSTOM ROMS.. I'VE WARNED YOU.. I BELIEVE UNROOTING CUSTOM ROMS WON'T HARDBRICK OUR PHONE, BUT IT CAN MAKE YOUR PHONE BOOTLOOP..
SO BEFORE UNROOTING CUSTOM ROMS, NANDROID BACKUP WITH CWM FIRST!
FEATURES: (28 October 2012)
- latest "Superuser.apk" (v3.1.3) (46)
- latest "su binary" (v3.1.1) (17)
- latest "BusyBox" (v1.20.2) and its applets
I WILL UPDATE IF I NOT FORGET AND IF I KNOW THERE'S A NEW UPDATE
TUTORIAL: (for both root and unroot)
- CWM ~> mounts and storage ~> mount /system
- CWM ~> install zip from sdcard ~> find your zip
- reboot
DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK
This will not break the root in CM9? Please enlighten me. Thank you...
Can you make a version with SuperSu instead of Superuser, please?

Unfortunately this file didn't root my device.
On cwm I install it from the sdcard and no error message is shown.But nothing seems to be installed. No root , no superuser app.
What else can I try ?

what do you mean ?
I've used CWM recovery for lots of purposes on several Android devices in the last 3 years. I've nevere needed to mount /system.
Even for installing a custom ROM.
For this root purpose, shall I need to mount /system ?
yes mr..
when installing ROMs, the system mounted automatically by the script inside the flashable. mine is not

Hey guys.
I'm on 4.3, rooted with CWM 6.0.2.3. (just got this phone).
I want to flash a 4.4.2 Rom but every1 says to update CWM to 6.0.4.5 or above, i've tried via adb commands but not succedded, tried via KIt and flashed successfully but when entering the CWM, it still the 0.2.3. :S
Is there any flashable zip or something?
How to update the bootloader to support the 44.2 roms?
I've searched around but no direct answer.... feelling so dumb at this point ... (done all of this with Htc, samsung, lg and with a Nexus cant get it done ... damn).
Thanks a lot in advance!!
osm0sis has flashable zips. And otherwise download the image and flash via fastboot.

Have you considered using TWRP instead? I have found it to be much better and have been using it for years on my Nexus. Just download the "Goo Manager" app from the play store, and make sure you are rooted.
Once installed, click on the menu button and then press "Install OpenRecovery Script". This should install the latest TWRP for your nexus, and after that, you should have a nice touch based recovery with buttons and other cool functionality as opposed to struggling with CWM.
I am currently running Omnimetal 4.4.2 and it is blazing fast and smooth. My battery lasts at least 2 days now, and standby (using groove ip on wifi) is also close to a week :laugh:
Best of Luck!

Root by unlocking the bootloader via HTCDev.com and then just install custom recovery and flash current (2.56) SuperSU zip.
One click root solutions won't work with a locked bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader is really the key.
Once rooted, you can OTA. But you need to have stock ROM (nothing altered in /system partition) and you need to re-install stock recovery. Root is okay (although you will likely lose root) and unlocked bootloader is okay to OTA. To root again after an OTA, just install custom recovery and flash SuperSU again.
Thanks a lot. I will unlock the bootloader and can you link me to a good tutorial or guide on how to install custom recovery and supersu?
Thanks again

The following guide is a pretty good one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799796
Although some links are outdated:
1) Installing HTCSync should be fine to get the HTC drivers on your computer; or you can search XDA for more recent HTC drivers. The HTC drivers linked in the guide are really old.
2) Get the latest SuperSU zip here: http://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
3) And if you need an easy adb/fastboot installer, just use the XDA seach function with the phrase "simple adb" and you will get a few results for beginner adb guides and installers.

hello I saw your post Im planning also to root my m8 but I dont want to flash the custom recovery someone told me it is possible
just download the custom recovery
then type "fastboot boot recovery.img" = this will boot my m8 to custom recovery but not flash so I can flash the supersu in that custom recovery then reboot after that stock recovery is still intact

That's true, you can boot TWRP remotely with fastboot, without actually flashing it (installing to the phone).
Although its slightly irrelevant; you can always flash back to stock recovery back to the phone (over-write TWRP). You can either find your stock recovery posted in the collection; or back it up your self using the fastboot TWRP trick (fastboot boot TWRP, and use TWRP to backup stock recovery). In that instance, the fastboot boot TWRP trick is very useful.
Having TWRP installed after root is very useful. Reason being, it gives you a lot more recovery options if things go south. And also, for a lot of mods done under root, you will want to backup your stock setup anyway (just in case the mod goes wrong, and you need to revert). Stock recovery is close to useless for anything but installing OTA updates.
