Just got my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic touch where is the correct forum for this phone? I'm a little confused there's an original thread and then there's a new one? I'm not on bell or att but it appears everybody else is.

It's near the bottom of the Samsung section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281
I am converting from an Atrix up to a more recent AT&T Android phone. There are a few that I'm considering, and while I've done the tech-spec comparisons I would like to have an idea of which of these phones it he most "open" at the moment.
By open, I'm asking:
Which has the most options when it comes to custom ROMS?
Which has the most active xda development scene?
Do any of these phones have limitations, such as locked bootloaders?
Which of these phones will need to undergo methods that will leave warranty-voiding traces in order to use said custom ROMS, MODs and soforth?
The phones that I'm considering (in order) are:
Samsung Galaxy Note LTE
Samsung Gallaxy SII Skyrocket
Samsung Galaxy SII
HTC Vivid
Samsung Captivate Glide
Samsung Infuse 4G
LG Thrill 4G
Motorola Atrix 2
Any and all advice is greatly appreciated! ^_^
I think S II has the most ROM's.
I'm going to assume this is the same variant at AT&T in the US, I know the frequencies for 3g and LTE are the same in most other phones...
Friend of mine recently upgraded to a Galaxy S II X. I never heard of this model before (only just the S II). Provider is Koodo in Canada.
Questions: I know it has a more powerful dual core 1.5GHz processer over the regular S II dual core 1.2, among other things. But I'm curious to know if anyone else here has one of these? What do you think of it? I notice there is not specific forum section on XDA for this device either. Is it pretty much the same as an S II in terms of rooting/installing ROM's etc.?
Thanks in advance.

T-Mobile SGH-T989
Yes, it's exactly the same as the T-Mobile t989 s2. There's a forum section for it. Great development going on.
The "x" is the Telus / koodo Canadian version. But all the T-Mobile roms work on it. The t989x from Telus anyway, works best with the tlle4 radio for Telus. I think koodo has a radio. I've found any of the T-Mobile radios don't seem to work as well.

If i buy the i9300 quad core version for mainly gameing purposes, will it last me a good 2 years for gaming? Or does anyone experience game lag on this phone?
Also does the i9300 get 3g with at&t sim?
AT&T galaxy S3s have a different forum.
This forum is for the international version (i9300).
The forum you're looking for is for the i747.
Also, the S3's graphics card is decent, but it might not play games 2 years from now perfectly.
3G should work no matter what S3 you get, however, only some models of S3s get 4G LTE.
The AT&T model has a slightly better graphics card and more RAM, so it probably is better for gaming.
