Using Rom Manager to install CWM for Rooting

I noticed "Rom Manager" from the market has a CWM for the T-mobile SII.
Is this safe to use for getting root?
Has anyone rooted using this?
If its this easy, why use ODIN?
I am just wondering if using ODIN to root is outdated and we can now just use Rom Manager to install CWM and then the SU.

You can only install rom manager on a rooted phone. So no you cant use it to root your phone.

[Q] install a custom rom on a rooted rom

Hi guys. Gmaster here. First of all im using a rooted rom (not stock) and i want to replace it with a custom one. Im want to use mobile odin but im wondering if something might go wrong like root being removed during a process that requires root. I would use odin on my computer but my antivirus is...you get the point. But do i want a stock rooted one or will my other rom do it. Please tell me if it can do it or not (even if there is a soft/fixable bricking possiblility) if its hard brick possibility then i do want to know. Any answer that helps will get thanks off me.

As what you said, you are using "not stock" rom, so I assumed you did install a custom ROM in the past and it was successful. But why don't you follow the same way you did?
Alternatively, you can use adbshell to install CWM and then flash a custom ROM or zip through it.

There is Stock ROM and there is Costume ROM - bothe can be rooted or not (Coustume one almost always are).
Stock means: the original ROM from the manufactre (Samsung, HTC etc...).
you can learn more on how to back up your apps (titanium) and current ROM (CWM Recovery), and flashing a new rom from the forum threads.

I know guys but if i install a non root rom then wont cwm stop working?

My experience flashing non root stock room with cwm, the non root stock room became rooted stock rom by itself

[Q] CWM/TWRP impossible to install after upgrade to 4.2.2

Hello everyone,
My brand new n5100 came with 4.1.2 out of the box, but upgraded to 4.2.2 OTA immediately (XXCMI1).
Right after that, I tried to install either CWM or TWRP through Odin3, with no success. It says PASS, but when I boot in recovery (home+vol.up+power), all that I have is stock recovery.
Does anyone know what's going on? Any ideas on how to do it?
My final objective is to root the device. Framaroot exploits are no working anymore. Should I proceed installing a custom kernel? I am afraid of having a locked bootloader or so, and bricking my new toy due to that.
Thank you in advance!

Use CF Autoroot to root the device. Then install which ever recovery you want.

[Q] How Do I RE-Root T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S4

My T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919) was rooted and I have been running CyanogenMod for years.. Right now on Lolipop 5.0.2
Months ago I had to do a restore and I think it was then that I lost root.
I want to root the phone again, but I am using the CWM Recovery v6.0.5.0. I know how to root the factory version of my phone but I dunno how to do it to my CWM/CyanogenMod phone.
Can someone offer me advice on how to re-root this device now that it is not in a factory configuration?
Appreciate it.
V/R,
