Hi
I haven't been round these forums as long as many, but I noticed the wiki was a bit out of date and through searching found that there was some intention to move to Mediawiki in 2006: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=267487
Unfortunately more searching only turned up 2 or 3 threads when users were asking how it was getting on. I think, with the nature of a wiki, we could open it up and run it like a community project when the scripts are there, to move pages from the existing wiki over rather than having one person do it all which could take a long time.
I'm no expert but anyone knows how wikipedia works so I think it's just a case of getting it done. Here's a brief guide http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/mediawiki/mediawiki_installation.htm
Anyway, to keep this thread concise:
- Where are we with the mediawiki (has it been shelved?)
- Would you be willing to open the project of migrating pages to the community to speed up the mediawiki
And errr, can't think of anything else, so I'll leave it there for now. If things do start moving along nicely, we could set up a thread to discuss specific areas that need work and get a team of editors together.
bumping for information
bumping to see if this is still alive?
Last update from Flar (site Admin) a few weeks ago when someone asked the same in the moderators forum was that moving from phpwiki to mediawiki is not as straight forward as they imagined initially, and also they first need to change the hosting server because of the extra added load from mediawiki (it's bit more server hungry than phpwiki).
Hi, I was wondering if there was any new development concerning this topic? I've been using the wiki more frequent lately, and it just lacks a lot of features and usability, which would be much improved by a move to MediaWiki.
p.s.: I've just donated a little something to help pay for additional hosting capacities.
Hey, I never knew this thread existed
I last PM'd Flar before I became a moderator at the back end of September with regards to this. I too would be very interested in see'ing an XDA MediaWiki.
She said that the person who is looking into is not always available, this is why there is a delay.
I will try and get and update on this, if I can.
Thanks
Dave
I found this site while browsing reddit:
http://filevo.com/
Reddit discussion:
http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/c70zv/hi_reddit_ive_made_a_filesharing_site_which_i/
Perhaps the devs can start uploading to this site and see how well it works
PS: I am in no way affiliated with this site. I just want to get the best experience for all XDA users.
Hello *,
I just added a wiki page to the XDA Dev wiki together with some links from the development forum.
Please feel free to edit the page and add the information you deem important.
Cheers,
CS
Nice work!
I've stickied this thread in the General forum for everyone to see.
P.S. I fixed the Android logo and added a redirect on the main index photo

Why don't you sticky Sorensiims "How I mod my defy" topic?
Thank you!
Would you mind making it also sticky in the dev sub-forum? As most of the links point to dev-resources and since many questions arise concerning these topics it might help people to get started.
Looks great! Nice to have all the information gathered in one place.. will be helpful when I finally dive into the world of rooting/flashing after my exams
added new section: Recover Nearly Bricked Phone (hopefully)
if anyone wants to contribute, feel free.
will take some time until i posted everything i know
(quite busy right now...)
thanks guys!
This along with other guides saved my ass so thank you for this majorily appreciated

very nice
There should be a directory for all of these wiki pages. With all this info in one place, more unregistered users will end up registering just to be able to access this stuff.

Sent from my MB525 cm7quarx
Dumb question: Asking here since the development forum isnt open to me yet.
I have CM7 beta5.1 but there's been alot of force close of android.media process. I want to reflash 5.1 but the custom recovery does not recognize the SD card. Is there a suggestion on that account which may be of use?
Else it may be included
Maybe an update for the Nordic ROM 2.2.2 as well

Intro:
First of all, I want to appreciate everyone here. Y'all have been doing great works. I'm pointing my BIG shutouts to Cyanogen Team, Android Open Kang Project Team, Paranoid Android Team and Many more.
I've been visiting Xda Dev Forum as a guest due to time limits I couldn't contribute. In other words I'm being selfish. Please forgive me!
Here I come to remedy all that has gone wrong. I'm a developer and trouble shooter as well.
Having any issue with ur Android Smartphone? refer it here and get it solved. I ll be introducing my roms to u later.

Hey,
I just installed LineageOS 16.0 on my OnePlus 3 and I'm seeing some minor, but annoying bugs. Could we please make a new forum dedicated to bugs and issues with the system? We could easly share not only screenshots, but also videos of the bugs by uploading them to YouTube and sharing with a link. I personally would love to post some of the bugs that I found in my system, so that developers can visually see what is the problem.
And yes, I saw that there is a "Report Bug" in dev options, but it's crap.
