Thanks for your quick reply. I have gone through your Guide, its very clear and east to understand for new users like me.
I currently don't want to install custom roms, hence i plan to update to current version.
When i tried by Kies, i got message as DDKI1 is updated firmware. Hence i plan to download DZKJ2 and update.
Now i notice
1) you have mentioned re-partition is ticked. Do i leave it like that?
2) do i have to enter recovery mode once i update? “Wipe Data / factory reset” and “Wipe Cache Partition”
3) Will i loose all my date (apps, contacts, sms, logs).
Thanks in Advance

first are u on i9100G version? just to be sure
1) if u read carefully, it is already explained there. the "re-partition" will be ticked AUTOMATICALLY after pit file is selected, if no pit file is selected, "re-partition" will always be unticked. if anyhow, just dont tick anything about "re-partition", it will be AUTOMATED
2) once updated or once rooted? these are two different things. but anyhow yes, for every new flashing/updating, from CWM, it is always recommended to do wipe cache,wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions.
"wipe data factory" is optional but recommended (it will totally erase everything to factory)
3) no if u are using odin to update (i think). but it is recommended to wipe everything after that.
