Here's a stock build of 4.4 for Toro that I'm trying right now. I've tried WiFi, 4G, 3G, gps, and bluetooth. Still a little flakey, and some graphics glitches. MAKE A BACKUP!

I've heard others having issues flashing in older versions of recoveries, so it'd be best to upgrade to the newest CWM.

Credit goes to steven676 for the proper tuna fixes to get WiFi working nicely, as well as other fixes. https://github.com/steven676/android_device_samsung_tuna/

Without further ado...

Just saw this after I downloaded baldwinguy77's build. I guess I'll give both of them a try!

I cannot get this to work for the life of me, TWRP always gives me an error message before it finishes flashing the rom. TWRP is then screwed up to the point that I can't wipe or restore anything until I dirty flash a 4.3 rom. No biggie though, I'm psyched we have builds to toy with this early! Thanks!
Edit: Perhaps I'll try CWM, though I haven't used it for ages.

Use CWM. I haven't used that in over 1 year, but flashed it real quick to try this out. Works perfect with it. Cant believe CWM has no implemented the ability to flash multiple .zips at the same time.

Any notable bugs? Does the camera work? That is an issue with another build I'm currently running.

Running real good man. Thanks for this. I tested Bluetooth on my car and works and streams music with no issues.

    Just tried this ROM out. Running great other than the bugs everyone else is having. I wish GPS worked. Google now isnt as cool without it.

    GPS works fine for me... Google Now shows my location with the weather, and maps appears to lock on. I haven't actually tried it for navigation, though.

    On a side note, I'm uploading a new build.
    Fixes: 4G! at least from what I can tell, I tracked down the issue (it's a RIL bug that was in 4.3 that CM and others fixed, I just had to find the new places to fix it). If you never changed the network mode, 4G should have worked ok. This makes it so that you can change to 3G and then back to 4G, as many times as you like :)
    Dictionary: now you can save new words, provided your language is english. If non-english speakers out there are using this build, I can look into pulling in those files as well.
    Gesture-typing: I don't recall if the original upload had it, but this one does
    Lock-screen: the navbar and statusbar are now transparent on the lockscreen.

    Let me know if you don't see these things, or experience (new) bugs! You can dirty-flash this over the previous one; I've been installing GAPPS every time I dirty-flash, but it may not be necessary. YMMV!

    Will this follow PA or is this going to be a standalone?

    This is just a stopgap. I didn't see any just stock aosp builds, so I provided one.

    I didn't touch any of the options in mobile networks just left it how it was, 3g. Just toggled the mobile data off and on after flashing the ROM and have had 4g and 3g since yesterday.

    Yep. I'm confirming that the overlay setting no longer works since things have moved. Think I've got it narrowed down now, just need to get it into an overlay (and not hardcoded :) ) if it works, and I'll post a build.

    Hey, nice job! Glad to see more devs working on this. Keep it up! :D
