Come on, at least attempt to search. You don't have to do anything different.

No, you can't flash a ICS ROM over a JB ROM. You can either restore an ICS backup then flash the ICS ROM you want or you can return to stock GB or ICS using Odin than reroot, flash an ICS ROM, etc. I always keep a stock ICS nandroid on my phone so if I want to flash an ICS ROM, I just restore it then flash what I want.
Oh and BTW, search is your friend .

If you don't know what you're talking about please don't attempt to answer someone's question. I'm sure we're all new at some point, but you're causing more confusion than you are helping. To the OP - YES u can flash any rom u want from recovery, be it gingerbread, ice cream sandwich or jellybean. Just do a full wipe of your data cache and system partitions in recovery before flashing the new rom.

Hey ^^ I'm guessing from your post that your phone has not been rooted yet, correct?
If that is the case, you will first want to root your device using this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953 (I think its easiest)
Or you can follow the directions in this nifty thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
Once you're rooted...I would suggest following the directions in the thread I posted above. Go DL titanium backup, backup all your apps. Download Rom manager and make sure you have a CWM installed. Then browse through our rom section and get yourself on Froyo to start. We have some awesome development for Froyo at the moment, and I would suggest you go with one by fishman0919 such as: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769424
Be sure to read the "Noob Guide" that I posted thoroughly and come back and ask if you don't understand something.
Good luck!
I'm guessing we don't want to start down the Kies road. Just in case no one else warns you, don't touch Kies. I hard bricked my phone a few months ago using Kies after having used Odin umpteen times. Luckily Sammy was nice enough to replace my PCB for no cost. They probably won't be doing that for much longer, though. Stay safe and follow the steps in Xenoism's post.

You can definitely run ICS or GB.
I personally suggest ICS since many GB roms are buggy and are no longer being supported.
If you want to jump up to ICS you will have to first flash this rom to your phone: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/5269/cm-7-20120729-NIGHTLY-vibrantmtd.zip
Once you have this flashed, you can flash whichever ICS rom you want.
Remember when flashing any rom to do a full wipe. This is:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
and then flash your rom
Good luck!

Give him some props!
Thanks for the nod Xeno.
One thing for the OP to remember. Some GB ROMs require Gingerbread Bootloaders, as do *some* ICS ROMs. You will need to check the OPs of those ROMs that you are going to want to flash to see. If you cannot connect to a computer or as your OP states you don't own a computer, you will NOT be able to flash Gingerbread Bootloaders to your phone.
They are not CMW flashable and just flashing a CM7 ROM does NOT give you GB bl's. Only in Odin can you flash GB bl's. Just something to take into consideration.

You just need to decide if you want a stock or a custom ROM.
As your running checkrom you're obviously not a stranger to flashing ROMs so just do a bit of research into some and flash.
Make a back using clockwork mod and if you want to go back to your old set up you can
A few custom ROMs to try are:
Ressurection Remix
Slim ICS
Elite Rom
Cyanogenmod 9
Will probably try cyanogenmod.
Is it pretty much just flash through cmw as before?

I would suggest rootbox. There is an ICS version and a JB, which is actually really stable
Thanks for the reply
This is where I got confused lol so is root box the new cwm? Or do I use cmw to flash root box then use root box to flash an ics rom?

Yes, that is all it is about. Make a nandroid backup first. Then wipe it clean, cache and data, and then flash whatever ROM you choose.
I can relate to your problem, s2 seriously has a lot of ROMs so try them and stick with that which YOU like personally. If you want you can try CM9 only first or any other. Just go to that ROM's thread and they mention how to flash in the OP.

I'm not sure what u are asking, but it seems like you're confused. 4.0.x is ICS. so flash an ICS kernel. 4.1.x is jellybean. So flash a jellybean kernel. If one kernel doesn't do what u want, try another. All of this information is already available here and in the development threads.
Flash AOKP and Gapps and thats it. Make sure to factory reset and wipe extweaks and init.d scripts in kernel specific settings and then reboot.

Dorimanx is an XDA dev who works on a i9100 kernel, named after himself. I absolutely love this kernel. It's stable, highly customisable and often updated. Search XDA for it and you shall find.
So you want stock, as evidenced below:

Fish finger (hahaha) all you want is to update to the latest Samsung official firmware right? If so, forget what kona said, you don't need a recovery at all. All you need to do is to flash a stock ROM via Odin, with your phone in download mode. Where to get the ROM? Search on Samfirmware.com for a stock ROM for your country, region & carrier. Then, to flash in Odin, you can click the link in my signature and find a handy link to a tutorial from there.
