It seems you are confused. Or are you just struggling to read english? What one do you see that is rooted?
The ones you have been directed to (stickied at the top of the General section, linked above by pier10) are the same one, (but are hosted on different download sites) and it is NOT rooted, but both pages have instructions on how to root if you want. If you don't want root, just ignore the rooting instructions.
As far as Kies, it will update only if you are still on an official stock Samsung firmware, with the correct CSC for your country. If you haven't flashed any firmwares yourself yet, this is a good bet. But you will have to wait until Samsung updates their servers for your region to say your phone is eligible for an update.

Two update methods
Kies and OTA OTA is not yet rolled out worldwide .
No update via Kies or OTA means your phone has not yet an update .
KIES = Samsung .com support software .

Alternative update path via XDA stock Samsung roms can be flashed often a later version than generally available full roms and instructions are here .

I want to update my SGS2 to 2.3.6 australia (Vodaphone) but all
i could find was some random letters like ( XJEMD )
Thanks.
At the top of the first post in intratechs thread linked in the above post you will find another link to carrier specific firmware.
Find the carrier (Vodafone Australia) and download the latest one.

Hello,
I want this to be a personal question about how to update my phone to Jellybean 4.1
First of all, as u can all see in the screenshot, I don't have software update in my phone,it's a branded Orange phone.
Over Kies my phone is not connecting to it. I have done a ton of solutions, no succes.
So I came here to ask you how can I update my Samsung Galaxy S3 to Jellybean with Odin starting from my screenshot, I mean from baseband i9300bvle4 w/o damaging my phone.
Please, give me some steps like you make for newbies.
Best Regards,
Go grab the latest stock JB from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610. Then use odin to flash, follow one of the many, many guides on using odin. Once youve downloaded the FW its a 10 min job.

Good day, everybody!
I've seen that there are here many great experts in this domain, so that I would like, with your permission, to ask why SG S3 has to be factory unlocked before rooting? All the guides provided on pages I've found on internet specify that (as a newbie, I only can assume that factory locked means that the device is working only on a specific mobile carrier, which is applicable in my case).
I also want to get a newer stock version of Android, and I dont't know if the latest is 4.1.2 or 4.2; maybe you can tell me.
From what I've read, in order to do so, I firstly have to root my phone, using a method for the specific kernel I have (XXDLJ4), and then install the software, using clockworkmod and the stock Android kitt. If I've understood it completly wrong, please let me know.
I can figure that you have been hearing this kind of questions over and over in your life, and I understand you perfectly, but I wouldn't be coming here I didn't you're the best.
The AP of my device is 9300XXDLJ4 with CP I9300BVDLI1.
Many thanks for your patience and time,
Cristi

Which means that I only can install 4.1.2? If so, which is the name of it? Does it have be "compatible" with my device?
I forgot to mention that my build number is JRO03C.I9300XXDLJ4.

HI,
I have recently bought Samsung galaxy S2 from Ebay. It is original Samsung galaxy S2. Surprisingly i got a note from the seller that i cannot upgrade the OS.
The current version info :
==================
Modul No: GT-I9100
Android version : 2.3.4
Baseband version : 9100XXKG1
Kernal Version :2.6.35.7-I9100XXKG1-CL349526 [email protected]#2
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XXKG1
I tried using Kies software to upgrade my OS. But this software does not list any new firmware for upgrade.
So i don't know how to upgrade to the latest OS.
Also if there are any problem during up-gradation will i be able to revert back to old firmware.
Sincere thanks

Most importantly, is your phone GT-i9300? Because S3 has various models and can not messed up the ROM
Actually, personally think the region code doesn't matter at all.

Be patient, it's not complicated as you thought. As matter of fact, I brought my Nexus S 18 months ago, then I immediate (like 20 minutes reading the thread and 10 minutes of preparation and operation ) unlocked bootloader and rooted it , I didn't even know "Android "before I got that phone!!!
if you mother language is not English, you can search some thread with your own language thread which should make it easier.
Just be patient reading these thread, don't be panic, this is not anything emergency, you have lots lots time doing this.

If you are in Greece this link will take you to Sammobile firmwares, make sure you do have i9300 international then download the lates version i9300XXELLA and flash it using Odin which you already have.
Make sure you understand how to flash via Odin by reading the Odin thread if you do it wrong you will just have an expensive brick
