Here is the link I used when I had my S3 Pro.

I didn't do it as outlined because I didn't have the optional AC power adapter and at first didn't know how long it would take for this process. using the camera as an external drive.
What I did was format a card in the camera place it in my media card reader and downloaded the update to the card. Placed the card in the camera and followed the instructions shown in the link to upload the information to the camera. After I was finished I re-formatted the card again and every thing was fine.
I will add though make sure that both files sizes are the same meaning if they say the files are 378mg make sure the files after loading to the card are 378mg. This method worked for me.
