1. Yes, to install a custom rom like cyanogenmod, you need to be rooted and have a custom recovery like CWM.
2. Cyanogenmod (CM) have many ROMs, based on all android versions.
CM7 - GB
CM9 - ICS
CM10 - JB 4.1.2
CM10.1 - JB 4.2.2
CM10.2 - JB 4.3
To upgrade to 4.2.2, flash CM10.1!
3. Instructions on flashing CM and rooting your phone can be got by a simple search of the I9100G forum. Please do so, and ask any questions you may have. Good luck!

Am sorry, but I'm not allowed to give you ROM recommendations. I suggest you either:
- Try each ROM and see which suits you best
- Check out what other members say about both ROMs in their respective discussion threads

Rooting CM10 / Jelly Bean (4.1.1)

Hi,
I am interested in installing CM10 or Jelly Bean 4.1.1. These are my questions : I have 4.0.4 + Siyah Kernel. I understand that I should install 4.0.4 related ROMs. But, here I want to install Jelly Bean 4.1.1 on my S2 I9100. How do I it ? Do I need 4.1.1 installed before I install CM10 ?
I understand there is no official release of Jelly Bean. So, it would help if you could suggest me something on this.
Thanks,
Satish.
You don't need to be on a 4.1.1 ROM. Follow the instructions on the first post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29280423

I'm currently running a absolutely wonderful JB ROM with exactly that Kernel you're on. You simply must try this one. This ROM are built upon CM10. Take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846706
And no, you do not need JB running on your phone prior to install this ROM
/A
you can just flash it anytime to JB. no worries

[Q] why only can flashing JB Leak rom

now, i'm in chameleon rom3.0.1 xwls8 and would like to try flashing 4.2.1/4.2.2 custom rom, such as super nexus, rootbox, aokp, after following the instruction guide it's always ended with bootloop
i always fullwipe before flashing, this happens after i installed JB test firmware and JB stock rom, when i used the ICS rom, i often do the custom rom (aokp mille1) and there's no problem
anyone can help me with this?
Ur previous ROMs have no influence when u do a full wipe and flash AOKP/AOSP roms.
Tell us which ROM u want to flash (give a link to that thread)..
And please provide the details given in 'Settings - About Device'.

[Q] Which cyanogenmod and gapps to get?

I have a galaxy s3 with 4.1.2 android. I stumbled upon cyanogenmod and saw the latest version of 10.1 and beside it says 4.2.2. Does it mean I can't use it cause it's not compatible or does it mean it updates my device to 4.2.2 alongside cyanogenmod being installed? Sorry, flashing noob here.

If You flash cm10.1, you'll be on android 4.2.2 . It will have everything from 4.2.2 and some good mods done by the Cyanogenmod team.
