1. Does all stock roms have the same recovery?
2. If so how can I pull a stock recovery and push it over a stock Rom with cwm...
(replace cwm with stock recovery) in order to be able to get otas

In the tar you download from sammobile.com, there is a file called recovery.img. This is the recovery. Just be sure to download the rom suitable for your device. Then you have 2 options:
Put the img in a .tar and flash with odin
OR
Download this file www.mediafire.com/?w45j8i0fcj0wck0, which originates from this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089&highlight=lorddeff07.
Replace the img with your own and flash with cwm.
I have used it to flash pershoot's recovery to my 7500 and it worked. I don't know whether it will work for stock, or wifi only version, but I see no reason why it shouldn't.
Please report back as to what you tried and if it worked.

Why don't you just wait a day or so for one of our awesome devs to post a rooted OTA after it drops, and then you can just flash it.
But I think the answer to your question is "PDA"...

I feel you m8... But you know as soon as Sammy drops the ICS update the great devs on XDA will pop open the OTA, root it, tweaked it and debloat it. And that will be done most likely in a few hours of the update. And remember if you do the OTA, you most likely will lose root until the devs setup some new root files.
Just saying...

Yeah I know can always flash back via odin an old hc rom re- root re- cwm /wipe factory reset and flash cm9 xD
Just Wish pershoot had a kernel control app to get proper and full control of the tab as I have it in my gnex with cm9 and frankos kernel app

What is your end goal? You can't really flash cwm because it's built into the kernel.
If you're trying to go back to a Samsung based rom, you *NEED* yo Odin back to jfd and start from there (there is no other way, it must be Odin/heimdall and jfd).
If you're trying to flash to miui or a later nightly, "flash" vibrantmtd, or better yet, flash the rom by hand in recovery.

I read some where I needed to use ROM Manager to update CM7, but if I just have to download it, copy it to my phone, reboot into recovery, then GREAT!!

People suggest rom manager all the time, but really it's just a gui to the recovery, with the ability to download roms.
Yeah, just flash while in recovery.

Hey Galaxy SII people, I need some help with a friend's SII.
I'm quite knowledgeable with custom ROMs and recoveries, but I have no idea what to do with a stock phone.
The phone is rooted and not getting the OTA to ICS. I want to get the OTA, losing root not necessarily a problem.
Can someone give me a hand with this? I have no idea what I need to do.
The phone also has the stock recovery.
I apologize if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find a conclusive, comprehensive answer.
Go to samfirmware and download the update firmware and install it via odin.
All the best.

Flash stock ROM from http://samfirmware.com/ via Odin. Search for galaxy S2 ROMs, just make sure you don't download the dangerous ROMs (the ones with a warning triangle next to them).

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm downloading a zip now. I flash this with Odin/Heimdall? I thought I needed a .tar and a bunch of other files to flash with Odin.
This won't keep root, right? Is there any way I could get root back after flashing?
Also, will this wipe /data?
Oh, and I have the option to download a ROM for a specific carrier. Does that mean I can't use another carrier?
Edit: While I'm at it, is the stock recovery needed for anything stock ROM related?
Yes download will be in the form of a zip file, once downloading is complete you can extract the tar. file and place in the PDA section of odin. This will not wipe your device, well never has done for me. Yes you will loose root as you have a completely new rom with stock kernel. See the guide for rooting your chosen firmware. As for the carrier i always use the unbranded /open version as this has less bloat ware. All the best.

Hi I hope someone can help me, I've been looking for stock 3e recovery in zip format and I can't find it anywhere. Any help will be much appreciated
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I'd say the best thing to do would be to download a stock ROM from sammobile.com or CheckFUS for PC. This will wipe your phone completely, I know you want a flashable stock recovery, I've never seen one. The stock ROM will remove what I assume you have is CWM.

You have three options:
1. Flash any ICS 4.0.4 firmware with stock recovery here:wanamlite.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?fid=11
Don't flash 4.0.3 firmwares, those have CWM recovery.
2. Flash back your stock kernel, via mobile Odin on your phone
3. Flash stock firmware via Odin

hi all I got my note from someone and notice it has a custom recovery but its not rooted...so can I flash this back to completely stock without a computer? since it his not cwm recoverver but a different one.
Sent From My Rockin Samsung Galaxy Note
If you want to go back to stock and have root it can be done, but you will need CWM or TWRP...what do you have installed. You say you have a custom recovery but you are not rooted.... you dont need to be rooted to put CWM or TWRP on, is it you do not have a computer at all...What ROM is on there now?
I would find a computer it would be your best bet, but below are the tools for the GNote for these forums.

Download a kernel from the original dev section i.e. dagr8's kernel and flash it from your recovery. That should restore your root privileges. Sounds like he just unrooted the phone on a custom ROM for some bizarre reason.

Doesn't matter. If recovery is installed you don't really have a problem. Just follow my instructions and you should have root in 5 minutes.

You will need to use Odin. No way around it. And you will need to flash back to stock 2.1 then you can use the cwm recovery update.zip from the esental hard to find files thread and that will install cwm once your on 2.1 then you can download what ever ROM you want and flash it. FYI you will need to flash the ROM twice. Once will give me the jb recovery then the second time will install the rom
