Default [Q] Question regarding the current development scene for the SGSII

Hi, I just wanna know if the current development scene here for the SGSII is still active.

It's because I plan on buying a secondhand one (regarding my choice of purchase, I'm still a college student, therefore I don't have the cash for a SGSIII, etc and am perfectly fine with the SGSII).

But before I go on with it, I want to know if development here is still great, how much have things changed (eg., have most of the top developers for the SGSII gone to other phones) and until when do you think the development here will be still active.

Thank you.

You just go to the roms and look at the dates of the version releases.

Well that's good to hear. Yeah, I checked the dev section, but I just wanted to make sure that it's genuine development I was seeing (not just duplicate roms, merely changed apks, etc).

Thanks guys!
