Root Unable to root HTC Droid Incredible 2

Hi,

I purchased HTC droid incredible 2 from my friend. I stay in India and there is no Verizon operator here. But I am able to use my SIM here. Today I was trying to root my phone, but was unsuccessful in doing it. I was successful in making my phone to s-off. But I am unable to install ClockWorkMod. I used ROM Manager to install Flash ClockWorkMod Recovery, but I got this error " An error occurred while attempting to run privileged command". So I tried to transfer through FastBoot, but unfortunately it got failed too. I have attached the screenshot of it.


I tried through Revolutionary, but it failed installing ClockWorkMod on my phone. Also I tried transferring img file, but it too got failed. And yeah I also tried with ROM Manager, it gave an error saying " An error occurred while attempting to run privileged command ". These are the methods I tried for installing ClockWorkMod on my phone, but all were unsuccessful.

Yes I already installed Superuser on my phone. This one:
Code:

The instructions say to flash superuser.zip but the Store version may work. It sounds like superuser isn't running.

i used revolutionary also and had an issue similar to that. once i got s-off my internet jacked up on me and i was unable to install CWR. it's been a while but there is a method involving fastboot. i had to flash CWR using fastboot and then once i had CWR i used it to flash the superuser zip file to gain root. i'll look and see if i can find some of those links i used.

I am successful in rooting my phone. None of the methods were successful. I tried SuperOneClick and it worked like a charm, my phone was rooted with this software within 30 secs :)

Thank you guys for your support.
