[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Andrw0830:
I just tested a build for the Skyrocket and what I did was use CM 11's hardware repos except AKM and libhardware. I synced and allowed the files and folders to populate. Next I used Slimroms device_skyrocket and just changed the slim.mk file to candykat.mk with editing the lines inside the file to vendor/candykat and the PRODUCT_NAME to candykat_skyrocket. When I build I use candykat_skyrocket-userdebug and it built fine. I'll provide my local_manifest to show exactly what I used.

Here is my candykat_manifest file:

I used in this case the Diablo kernel, but a couple files I had to replace to make it build, but bryan2894 kernel worked no problem! Just thought you should know if you want to build.
