You sure its stuck? Its seems to take forever, and does halt for a considerable period halfway, but I should complete

Forget about KIES.
Go to http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300 (link is for the International version), choose ANY ROM you want, or the ROM for your country/operator, and flash it using Odin3.
KIES is evil and I don't know why people insist on using that P.O.S.

But will i have any problems in future if i want to upgrade if i flash it using odin?

I updated yesterday using Kies. Make sure your battery is well charged (70% or more) and let it run. It looked like mine had stopped after downloading the components. After 20 minutes of looking like nothing was happening, the firmware proper started to download.
With all the downloads then flash, it probably took just under 2 hours (not the 5-30 minutes that Kies claims).
Most likely the download servers are just busy.

previously was root with stock rom...(unroot usin those root keeper) and proceed to update JB.
Looks good but root is lost.

Jus restore your firmware using ODIN and after restoring, wipe data.
This will fix the problem.

Which region of Leaked 4.2.2? U can backup game data from helium app. This app is useful to backup data without root. So I don't have idea about 4.2.2 official.. May be its stable.. If u r using 4.2.2 Russian firmware so u cannot update Indian firmware through ota.. I think its better to flash via odin.. As I don't know about running tracker on triangle away.. I havent tried it..

i dunno which region of leaked version i downloaded from anindya mukherjee's video 'android 4.2.2 on samsung galaxy grand' in the description there ws a link to hotfiles and i downloaded it from thr
and helium app the game data will be backed up to external sd card eh???
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app

Yes.. Helium app can backed up to internal and external storage. There is option backup to internal or external SD card..
By the way u don't know about 4.2.2 firmware.. Okay.. What's the build number and baseband version? U may need to see.. Go to settings-> About device. U will see that baseband and build number there.. If u found it..

AFAIK Leaked 4.2.2 is not belong to any region... better u Backup ur current rom through cwm on extsd....download ins 4.2.2 n flash it through odin...now if u r satisfied with it just root it...restore ur game data....if not just flash cwm n restore ur 4.2.2 (leaked) backup....or wait for some ins 4.2.2 user reviews....

Because he lives in India or is using the Indian ROM. That's pretty basic stuff to know
@maksud_ans : OTA updates are not very stable, I mean there is NO guarantee that every one will have the OTA update. So it's better to download the whole ROM and flash via Odin.

You are pretty basic too then. He could buy the phone in India but this no mean phone have indian CSC. He only need conect it to Kies 3 to verify it and is all :silly:
