No you do not have to be on ics. Read the instructions for whatever ROM you want to install. The main requirement is you have a custom recovery.

Ok i wanna flash universe rom and in op it says i have to have ics recovery how do i do that if im on el29

About Jelly Bean Roms.

So I sold my Xperia arc s and bought the Galaxy nexus, and now I have a slight concern about jelly bean roms. I'm currently running android 4.0.4, do I need to update to the official jelly bean update in order to flash custom jelly bean roms.
I know this is a dumb question but can you plz help me out.

What carrier?
tmobile
No official jelly bean yet for tmobile. If you want jelly bean then you have to install custom rom. That involves rooting, installing a custom recovery and flashing.
You have to answer a few questions before you can get a proper answer. What you need to do is give the correct name of your current device, if its the Galaxy Nexus or the Galaxy S3. After that, you would need to let us know the carrier to be directed to the correct part of these forums.

ICS to Jelly Bean

I have a very stupid question.
I am on ICS and want to upgrade to Jelly Bean. What is the very first step I need to do? Do I only need to flash JB ROM available or do I need to do anything before flashing JB ROM?
Thanks.
Follow the instructions of the proper jellybean ROM for your device. Read....read....read.

Fully wipe the device according to the ROMs OP when changing bases...

Fk23 vs Gb27

Is there any differences? Is it worth the time to go official jelly bean update? Or should I just stay on leaked fk23 jb?

Yes yes and yes ...new mods themes and what nots are based on gb27..and that build is most likely be last ...so why not ?

Have you updated from fk23 to gb27? I'm still using fk23 "rooted", and was thinking of updating it to gb27... I have the Samsung simple upgrade tool, because I can't use kies to update it... If you updated using the same method, did everything work out ok?... I'm not sure if this will harm my phone...

Why not just flash the stock rooted gb27 from Garwynn and sxtp developers?

Back then when my device was running ICS, I updated my device to jelly bean 4.1.2 using the Samsung simple upgrade tool. It worked perfectly. Had no issues during the process. Afterwards, you simply root your device if you want, and you are good to go. Definitely recommend updating to the latest version GB27.

You don't have to update...just flash one of the many stock roms available in @rwilco12 repo
