Rom manager does not work well with the SGS2. first you need to find out what phone you have. go to settings > about phone and look at the model number. then you need to find a rom that fits our phone. go to get.cm and download a rom for your model. if you have a GT-I9100, there's no stable CM Rom yet, but the nightly works quite well. if you have a 9100g or a i777 or anything else, see if there's a special forum for that on xda. that would be the place to post. to boot into recovery, press "vol. down", "power" and "home" buttons until you are in recovery. find the Cyanogenmod 10 thread in your phone's forum and follow the installation guides in the first post.
to simply boot into recovery, press "vol. up", "power" and "home" buttons until you are in recovery.

Dont use ROM Manager on the GS2.
Instead just flash Siyah kernel, It will come with a CWM Manager designed for our device.
PS. If you had used search before creating topic you would have found many topics that already discuss ROM Manager.

Quick question here. After I flash my Galaxy SII with the CyanogenMod, if for some reason I want to go back to the previous rom that I backed up, do you always have to do a WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition) before you flash the new rom?
Apologize for the noob question.
You don't HAVE to, but don't be surprised if you have random fc issues. Just use titanium backup to backup apps and restore.

Quick question: Don't have the necessary amount of post to post this in the following forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823
When I got to apply the zip from the sdcard, I get the following error:
e: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Yesterday, I flashed the CLOCKWORKMOD-RECOVERY FOR GALAXY S II (AT&T) and rooted it. Then I installed Rom Manager, made a few backups, etc.
When I open Rom Manager, I do see the following:
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 4.0.1.5
Now, I believe this might be due to installing the ClockWorkMod in the Rom Manager, would this be the issue I'm facing?

I had this issue as well. I reverted back to stock and rooted/flashed CWM from the xda thread instead. ROM Manger version of CWM must be for international only.
So to clarify, I need to flash this back to stock and re-do the process correct?
Did you use the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286192
Also, theirs a update.zip in the root of the sdcard. When I go to apply it, i get the same error message as above.
E: failed to verify whole-file signature and so on.
Do I need to apply this zip at all?
Okay, was able to install the rom. I was doing it wrong. I needed to power off the device, then press Vol up and power. Some reason, getting into CWR that way seems to work, rather than when you boot into recovery from the Rom Manager app.
Yeah I'm pretty sure at this point ROM Manager is useless for us. I'm definitely going to avoid doing anything through RM until they have it set up for the ATT version.
Dont use RM for CM7 for now.

I'm surprised that worked. It should be VolUp + VolDn + Power.
Don't use ROM Manager. It caused nothing but problems on the Infuse, and is causing nothing but problems here. Use the CWM included in every custom kernel that has been posted here so far.
If install cm7 will it change the file system like it did on the captivate

Just so I'm crystal clear, that means you need to power off your phone and do the Volume UP / Down and Press power to enter CWM correct?
Which brings up another point, according to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823
You have to press Vol Up and Power button. But for my AT&T Galaxy SII, i have to press both Vol Up/Down to get into it.

Sorry, I meant to say both Vol Up and Down + Power.
I just rooted my phone using superoneclick, flashing insecure xwkdd kernel then flashing stock xwkdd kernel to remove yellow triangle. after purchasing Rom manager from the marketplace, i used it to flash clockworkrecovery to my phone. it then displayed that my current version was 4.1.0.5. I believe it is the latest.
Next was to boot into recovery so i could install cyanogenmod from my sd card. however when i appt into recovery from Rom manager, it would go int o recovery but while loading it will show some message about file certificate and not able to read whole package. So all im left is to reboot back to normal. I can't get tos the clockworkrecovery page. even when i do utter manually and use vol up + home + power, it goes to stock recovery. why!!!¿¿ Help please as im starting to wonder if the firmware issue.
Before anyone jumps in here to help you out, I'd just like to remind them of your last thread which looks rather familiar, with a slight difference:

In February I installed CWM and used it to install the 2nd CM7 Alpha release to my Nook Tablet.
I now want to install the Final Alpha. But holding the power button down and "n" does nothing. So I installed Rom Manager and selected "Reboot into Recovery". It reboots but then says: "Please restart your device and try again. If you encounter the same issue, please contact customer service"
So, I'm guessing CWM no longer exists after installing the 2nd CM7 Alpha release? Does this mean I have to make a new SD card and install CWM again?

No that isn't normal. I have seen it several times. Your recovery is botched. There are numerous ways to fix this. You can sdcard CWM and push what you wish but there still won't be a stock recovery if you decide to go back toward stock. Adam Outler Ubuntu flash 1.4.0 sdcard is the most time consuming and also the most thorough. I'll be right back and get you the link.

Well that's the funny part. I no longer see the recovery option. I use to.
I'll reimage it.. I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong...
Thanks everyone.
Apparently I'm not allowed to post links, since this is pretty crucial for you to get what I've done, you can go to reddit.com/r/AndroidQuestions/comments/15aq5m/rooting_my_sgs2_have_a_question/ to have some working links.
I followed this guide to root my phone. It went smooth and i got the CWM and SuperSU shortcuts. I downloaded ROM manager so that i could install cyanogen mod (10). Under the recovery tab it said Flash ClockworkMod recovery, i pressed it and came to the choose your device option, there was one called
Samsung Galaxy S2
galaxys2
and one called
Galaxy S2 i
i1900
The last one said "Samsung Galaxy S2 does not have an officially supported ClockworkMod Recovery yet. Have you installed a ClockworkMod based recovery manually?" when i pressed it so i went with the other one and pressed install ClockworkMod recovery. It downloaded, said Flashing... and then disappeared.
I went out to the main menu again to see if it had gotten installed, it hadn't. Same Flash ClockworkMod recovery button, no info about any installed CM Recovery. I tried the same procedure above 2 more times but to no effect.
I then tried using this method to get CM Recovery, i think it worked. Now under the Flash CM Recovery it says "Installed verision: ClockworkMod 5.X.X.X" But i'm not entirely sure I've done things correctly and i dont feel comfortable continuing with the next step, whatever that is. Help anyone?

To be honest I don't fully understand your story... but I do understand that you're not sure cwm is flashed on your device or not.
The simplest way to know is to go into recovery mode (Press volume up + home button + power button) and if it says Clockworkmod recovery on the top of the screen it should be all right
There are plenty of guides on here of what to do. There simply isn't any excuse for this type of topic. You should read sticky topics before creating topics like this.
Hello all. I was successful in rooting my Nook Tablet according to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037368&nocache=1
Unfortunately, when I went to install the CM7 zip, it kept saying, "file not found"
I then read a post about enabling USB Debugging and Unknown Sources. So even though I shouldn't have rebooted, I really didn't have any choice but to reboot and go into settings and enable USB Debugging and Unknown Sources.
Now, I can't get back into recovery to install the .zip despite trying every combination I could think of or find by searching and I've literally been searching for hours.... must be using the wrong keywords because I can't find anything about getting back into recovery that works.
I even went to the Playstore and installed ROM Manager and GOO Manager and tried to reboot in recovery. When the Nook Tablet starts, it just shows and picture of a Nook with a red exclamation mark in the middle of it and says, "Please restart and try again..." or something like that.
Any ideas? Thanks for any response
In terminal emulator : "reboot recovery" or powering off and holding home and power buttons for like 5secs
If you tried booting recovery and it came up with nook recovery then you haven't replaced your internal recovery program to cwm. Instead of cm7 I'll suggest using cm10 because its much more new and essentially is the same thing, just improved.
If you end up not knowing how to internally flash then either read, read, read until you understand or get an SDC image. So many people brick their nooks by not understanding how to internal flash. The SDC image has no risk.

I tried several times holding the buttons but that didn't work. Terminal Emulator just says, "Operation not permitted." Thanks though.

I was orginally in CWM Recovery when it would let me flash the CM7. The link to the thread in the OP advised that CM7 and the appropriate Gapps needs to be installed first before flashing the CM10 + JB Gapps zips. According to the thread I linked, these ROM's will be flashed to internal. This is the method I've been searching for because I didn't like the SDC image idea... just me.
I wasn't supposed to reboot the NT per instructions but when I forgot to enable USB debugging, it would not let me flash the .zips so I had to reboot the NT to get into settings. Is there a way I haven't read about yet that will enable me to flash the .zips without going through CWM Recovery or is it an absolute must?

You don't need to flash CM7 before CM10. It just replaces it anyways. You just need to replace your current internal recovery with CWM and install the zips. There's no other way to internally flash without using a recovery program.
