It seems like everyone used media fire and my phone has a hard time downloading stuff from there. Is there anywhere else I can download these roms? If you guys are wondering, sometimes its extremely slow or it will complete the download and I only have half the file.
 
Don't know if this will help but use Firefox I have problems downloading from every other browser on the phone, but Firefox always downloads the file correctly.
 
I personally have no problems downloading from mediafire on my stock browser and haven't had any problems even back when i had a rumor touch... If your connected to wifi make sure you try to keep the phone awake... and if you are on 3g vm's 4g isn't the greatest but shouldn't have much problems. Also another thing you can do is make sure you have enough space on your sd card...
 
It finally went thru after about 20 goes. I'm using opera mobile now. after I install CM7, I'll find a better browser
 
I just use my PC and then transfer via USB to SD card.....much faster I think.

The thing about that is if you are connected to the same network there won't be much speed difference (unless your are using ethernet on your pc). But your still gonna have to wait for the file to transfer and the bigger the file the longer it will take. I personally do the same... sometimes depending on if I want to connect my phone to my laptop... lol

I use Opera Mobile as my default browser too (it's nice & fast), but make sure to turn off Opera Turbo when downloading stuff, that feature forwards everything & compresses them on Opera servers before sending them to you.
