Ok so I finally got s-off and now, due to my hit and miss data connection, I can't download any ROMs without them failing. Nowhere offers ROMs for download by torrent by chance?
 
Why not use a download manager? It should work fine for your purposes, as long as the server supports resuming downloads. If you tell me what ROM you want, I can try it for you and report back.
 
No matter what, md5 checksums should be used before flashing anything to your phone, it's even more important when you have a flakey download connection, I've had file managers show the correct file size after combining the segments but still have an incorrect md5 afterwords. :confused:

Couldn't agree more.

I second that motion
 
And if you've got a .md5 file to match your download, you can easily check to see if your download is correct by issuing the following:
Code:
md5sum -c your_md5sum_file.md5
-c stands for "check" (as in verify).
 
I can't remember if wget resumes dloads or not. Let me go look.

Edit: It does. Google "wget resume broken download" for destructions.
