The recovery is in the hidden.img, which also has the kernel. I think its in the OTA file, but I'm not entirely sure

I have planned to flash a Pre-rooted image but there is no Pre-rooted image available for my country firmware i am using Indian Generic .75 is it normal to flash other country pre rooted firmware of the same version or it will kill my phone.
Flash Advanced Stock Kernel and you'll have root.
wat is Advanced Stock Kernel
Look in the dev section.
The other (but more difficult) solution, create your own prerooted image using this instruction

Hello.
I have US version of Tablet S that came with R5 firmware. It's rooted but according to many replies the recovery is locked so I can't flash anything on it, even downgrade is impossible.
I'm sending this table to a friend of mine in Russia. Do I need, if I can obviously, flash RU regional firmware or it should work there as US version fine?
If I can and should flash it, how would I do it? (AiO tool doesn't seem to work for flashing custom roms due to locked recovery)
Code:
Russia
ICS Release 5a
info.update.sony.net/ST003/nbx03_042/contents/0011/signed-nbx03_042-ota-121116102.zip
ICS Release 1a
info.update.sony.net/ST003/nbx03_042/contents/0010/signed-nbx03_042-ota-120804013.zip
Thank you.

US tab will work fine The only issue you would have is with 3G but it is obviously WIFI only model

I think the only thing we can do now is to wait.

pre-root can be done by aio,
but how to replace recovery?
i want leave a way to downgrade if ics is not fit me.
my current version is 3.2.1 root,
have 4.0.3 r1a and 4.0.3 r5a downloaded

hi,
recovery is included in hidden.img.
unfortunatelly there is no method (for now)
to downgrade hidden.img.
So if you will update to ICS,
then its one-way-ticket.
When you will update to ICS,
then with hidden.img recovery
is being updated, but also kernel (for ICS).
So there is no way to use Honeycomb
after that.
If you will update - then be sure,
to use version max R1A,
to be able to use adb shell etc.
(like in making decrypt utility ).

i mean replace recovery inside rom file!not the tablet one
so you mean after update to custom 4.2.3 r5a,it's not possible to downgrade system(exclude recovery)to hc again?
still not know how to add r1a's recovery to r5a rom
condi say don't dir update to r5a,then how to make a useable CHINA rom?
replace hiden.img?
-------------------------
ok,i got the answer:
aio will replace hiden.img for custom image
