Going from custom ROM on Bell S2 to the new 4.1.2 official Jelly Bean ROM? How?

Hey everyone
I've only ever hacked my phones one way, from stock to custom. Today the 4.1.2 official firmware came out for the Bell S2 i9100, and I'd like to give it a go. I'm expecting that I won't get an OTA update since I'm modded, and there's nowhere under the "about phone" section for me to tell it to look for an update.
What is the easiest way to get back to stock? Do I need to download the new 4.1.2 and flash via Odin? Is there a way to tell my phone to go back to stock, and then do the update?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

It would help to put up what kind of Android version you're on. Just simply putting your kernel version doesn't help at all.

Dude, you ARE on Jelly Bean. Android 4.1.x - 4.3.x is all Jelly Bean.
As for changing the kernel version, there isn't much of a choice for Android 4.1.2. You'd have to root it and use a different Android version if you really want a different kernel version (doesn't matter honestly).
Read about rooting and unlocking boot loader , flashing a Rom, and updating your bootloader (modem). I like 4.1.2 Roms, Obsessed Rom, TKRom, Clean 7 Rom, and Synergy. Each have themes that are great. Read up on rooting, unlocking boot loader, flashing Rom and changing basebands BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE. Each carrier and model is not the same so make sure you only follow directions for your specific device model and carrier, if not you will most likely have a paperweight. Good Luck.
Lean kernel , KT747, and a few others have 4.1.2 kernels available.

[Q] Needing help in upgrading my Galaxy s II LTE I727

Hey guys Im new to the developing thing and I need a help because I'm really confused at the moment. So basically, I have Samsung Galaxy S II LTE, SGH-I727 Rogers version, and it has android version of 4.0.4. It's rooted with a cyanogenmod9. And now I want to upgrade it to cyanogenmod 10 or even 11, but i guess first i have to get the android version 4.1.2 . So I'm curious if i do a software update, and upgrade it to android version 4.1.2 will I loose my root?? and will I be still able to root it to Cyanogenmod 10 or 11?? Or i don't know, maybe you might suggest me something useless in order to update my old phone.
Thanks,
Looking forward to get useful information.

looking for stock official samsung rom

Hey guys I know that this question has been asked many times and i know that there are many tutorial that show you how to return your verizon galaxy s3 back to stock rom.
My verizon S3 is running 4.3 and it has the locked bootloader but i want to be able to flash the kitkat update using Odin however every tutorial i look at and every link i follow is not working when i try and download the stock firmware.
Can someone here help point me into the right direction and possibly provide me with a link to the official samsung (verizon) firmware for model SCH-i535. If you can provide a good tutorial that would be great as well!
Thank you so much for your assistance and time...

Alright. Here's the thread, be advised the bootloader will be even more locked down. With TW 4.3 there is more options for roms. With the 4.4 update your stuck with 3 options
