Stock ICS firmware for Orange: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9100&pcode=ORA&os=1&type=1#firmware
Download whichever and flash via Odin by putting file in PDA section. There are many guides here on how to use Odin, refer here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13712988&postcount=2
If you download ICS v4.0.4 make sure to either flash a custom kernel like Siyah Kernel afterwards, DON'T wipe data or restore a backup through stock recovery or you will brick your device. Refer here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756242
ICS v4.0.3 does not suffer from this, your pick.
Also, please refer here for future thread starting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763193

As we all know that the ICS update on the 10th of March, will I be able to update OTA update with this current baseband? It bcame LPH after flashing litening rom then reverted back to previous rom using rom manager however the baseband remained LPH. For OTA/KIES update to work, do i need to flash stock rom first?

Can anyone help me ?
Bit of patience might help. Bumping your thread an hour after you asked your initial question isn't likely to endear you to anyone here
Yes. If you want to get ICS via Kies, you'll need to go back to stock.
Updating through KIES if you are a power user isn't so good to be honest. For example, KIES force you to use the original ROMs baseband version if you want to receive firmware updates (also correct CSC and so on). Newest baseband doesn't always means the best one. I have compared XXKI4 to XXLPH and surely I've got better battery life-performance balance in KI4 So i can recommend you using Mobile Odin/Odin for flashing .. more flexibility to be honest
Baseband is not relevant .
Custom kernel is .
Kies updates those phones that have original firmware codes anything else and its a maybe.
OTA no rollout on that so far but supposed to be working for ICS .

Holy crap? Has the price of the SGSII fallen to where monkeys can now afford one?
Huh??? Noob??? Must be a special noob to get your SGS2 rooted and installed with a ROM.

Moved to Q&A. Please post questions in Q&A section.
Cheers
Yes
1. You can, but I wouldn't. I've read nothing but bad things on these forums where rom manager is concerned.
2. Yes.
one advice don't use Rom Manager 90 percents of the time have problem flashing ROMs . Always use CWM ( recovery mode)

why rom manger ??
just flash the recovery through odin
Why
Why would you? If you are rooted, chances are you have a custom recovery installed already. Just use the hardware keys to get to recovery mode. Rom manager is pretty pointless to be honest.
1q.i have installed this on stock gb - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288850

2q. i need to flash ics kernel first and after this i can flash ics based rom? or i can flash ics based rom with gb kernel?
stock
By stock, do you mean unrooted too? You should have root access before flashing kernels and such.
And if you flash a kernel through Odin you'll get the yellow triangle. Nothing to worry about there, you can ignore it or use ChainFire's TriangleAway app to get rid of it.
Hi All...
I searched for hours but failed to come up with a solution. I own Samsung Galaxy sII (SGH-I777). Please refer to the screen shot.
It is rooted and unlocked. ICS with custom rom and kernal. I am trying to update to Jelly bean. Could someone please help me to do the upgrade? I would like to be rooted and unlocked after the upgrade. Appreciate any help.

First, your screenshot says Galaxy Nexus, so I'm going to assume you've edited the build.prop to reflect that (this is based on the fact you're running an i777 modem).
Anyway, simply install a JB kernel and flash the rom of your choice. Refer to the OP in this thread for the most current and stable kernel for the i777. You'll need to select the correct kernel for the rom you want to flash - be it Samsung or AOSP. There are over 4,000 comments in that thread, any questions you might have about what to flash will be there.

Yes I recall making changes using build.prop. I have been out of this game and very rusty. Could you please elaborate on selecting the correct kernel for the rom.
If your phone is rooted with CWM recovery you only need install a custom ROM it includes its own kernel. A good JB ROM is the Shostock3 see here and follow the installations instructions:
