Simple question regarding OTA updates - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

I apologize if this has been asked before.. I looked for it and couldn't find it.
I'm on 4.2.2 Jelly Bean on my S4, and I'm trying to get to the update containing "ALJ1" in the baseband version.
Question is, if I install the 370mb update being offered, will I fully update to the latest version, or will I update incrementally, as in updating to the next version, then needing to download and install the next update and so on?
Thanks.

The custom ROMs themselves will be updated to the latest Android releases as they come out.

If you mean OTA (Over The Air) updates then no you will not. In order for OTA update to install you need the stock recovery, not Clockwork.
However once the updates are released the developer of the Rom you are using will update also and you can then flash the latest version.

JRN84D Stock question

Will anyone that has installed the stock JRN84D ROM from this thread, know if it will update OTA when subsequent updates come from Google?
I've asked in the thread, but the answer has got lost somewhere in the mire I'd imagine.
I'd assume so, considering its the same build as the Google I/O attendees are getting. Would assume they would OTA them, but they may expect that because they're developers, they would update themselves.
Nobody knows apart from El Goog.
As I understand it, no. You only get ota's if you're on the most recent official stock rom. You will only be able to install the ota if you have not changed anything on the official rom. I may be wrong but from experience that's what I think

anybody with a solution??
I found this here and it should help get you to 4.1.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2388065 I believe you need to be already rooted with a custom recovery on 4.1.1 and then from there you can flash the .zip but factory wipe and backup before hand. I also don't think you need to download the modem from there just the 4.1.2 ROM

If ur phone status is normal and u can receive OTA, it will be depend on ur region firmware. If have then u can do the OTA.
Otherwise u will need to wait till the OTA available for ur country/region.

you can see here:
http://www.sammobile.com/2013/11/19...eives-official-android-4-3-jelly-bean-update/
but beware, if you do the update in 4.3 (with the last rom in 4.3), it's impossible to return in 4.1.2!
But you can with this post:

Thank you for response. I checked link and seems it's pending for my device. Hope will be out soon
