Both Sammobile and samsung-updates link to hotfile and the download keeps crashing. Usually at 95% (maybe my ISP hates them).

Trying for two days now to get the firmware.

Anyone know of a site with either direct downloads, torrent or non-hotfile download?

Again, looking for latest International version, BTU, non-carrier specific (GT-I9300-BTU-I9300XXEMC2)
 
I need to try if there is a general problem with my phone or if this is ROM related. My phone locks up every now and then to a point where no app is loading and it takes a while to get alive again. Tried all sorts of apps to see which app might be causing it, but it seems random. Mostly Chrome ... Maybe it is Chrome - I don't know ... Since I had a ROM on this since day 1 (insurance replacement) I just want to rule this out as I am getting the same lockups on either CM10.1 or WanamLite 6.7 - although mostly on WanamLite .. Just want to try stock for a week or so and see if I experience the same problems (who knows, maybe the internal SD is screwed).

Oh and I am on "3" and I never had problems to download torrents .. uTorrent on Android works perfectly fine and only some sites are blocked by the ISP (3 or BT).

Edit: Yes, tried the stock "Internet" browser and Chrome. Currently trying to download yet again using Firefox Beta.

Got the stock ROM eventually. What shocks me now is that the phone is quicker than ever before - on stock ?!? I haven't used stock for probably a year and I am really surprised. No lockup since I got back. Mmmm...
could you please upload the file in any server BUT NOT "HOTFILE" consider me as a hotfile hater or anything but i can't download any thing from that site so please could put any url so i can download

P.S ::: Thanks In Advanced :)
