{C-h h f g} works fine here.

It does not do what is expected, for example if I write "facebook" in
elpa/hyperbole directory, it will not give me any results, if I do
classic grep, it gives me result

Are you saying you are in a buffer whose default-directory is the elpa/hyperbole directory and your grep returns no results?  If so, I don't see that problem with 7.1.3.

Suggestion:

The minibuffer description: Rgrep below current dir... could actually
show the current dir to the user.

Maybe except long paths would likely get in the way.
