The wiki - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

Can people in general check the wiki before creating a new thread, if the wiki doesn't have the answer, try a search of the forums.
People have spent time adding articles to the wiki to make it faster and easier to get info you need easily and quickly, so use the wiki!

Create wiki pages with all the different tricks.

The forum starts to be a big huge, there are allready dozen tricks or little hacks, that havn't even seen because hidden in a post somewhere.
So the idea would to collect all this tricks/hacks and index them in a wiki page. That way everyone could find them and if needed add some explanations; ( the wiki could also link to the post to get the full review and explanation for the futur)
Of course the wiki will not be the place to ask questions, just a list of all the technical details like registry hacks, hidden extended rom etc..
What do you think about this idea ?
It's here already, but needs some updating
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal
Yep this is a good idea. I've created a suitable page at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry - please could everyone add in their own hacks (with examples)?
ive pasted in all the reg's n tweaks ive collected up so far, needs editing to the same standards you set out, but i will action shortly.
Cool - a good set already!
Added the standard disclaimer at the top of the page so that people don't moan when they make the wrong change and break their Universal

Better Organized Wizard Wiki

I have been working on a new version of the Wizard wiki for most of the day. I think the old one is badly organized and hard to navigate. However, I kept most of the same information. The links at the bottom were on the original wiki also, except they link to forum topics; I think that they are important enough to be turned into their own wiki pages. I don't mind doing this but I want to get some feedback from the community first... Reply and tell me if you think I am wasting my time, if you think I am doing a good job, what should be added/removed, what should be changed, etc. etc.

(If it becomes good enough I hope to make it the main Wizard wiki page...as I said, I find the current one hard to navigate.)
Hi,
as you have propably noticed there's couple discussions going on about the forum and some "experts" leaving it etc..
Good structure is very important for wiki and also for forums. So I think you've done a good job there...especially I like the idea to turn certain stuff to their own pages, links to the forum threads are just too messy.
I just finished transferring "How to determine if you have a G3 or G4 Wizard" and "How to SIM unlock and SuperCID unlock a G3 Wizard" into wiki format. Could (a few) people please proofread and triple-check these for me, I don't want anyone to ruin their device because of a misprint or a confusing sentence.
I would suggest you taking the hermes wiki as template for your structure / organization:

Well done Lee1733.
I have often thought the wiki was out of date and in need of some tidying up. The search facility on these boards is becoming unusable due to thread hijacking and repated posts. I pity new users who have to wade through pages of threads to find a simple answer. A good tip is to use google to search xda-developers as it does a better job of sorting the wheat from the chaff. Perhaps a link to google this site as well as the default search should be put in the header of each page.
The wiki is the best place for FAQs but it is down to all of us to keep it upto date.
I just finished adding/editing the "How to Change the Wizard's Splash Screens" and "How to 'Cook' an Extended Rom" pages. I basically copied this straight from http://www.molski.biz (and gave him credit at the bottom) so they should be correct. The only changes I made were some minor Wiki formatting changes.

iphone theme

i want to know where to get the iphone theme from for the sprint htc touch
One easy way - Easy to use program - Very functional is IPhonz - Use the Search for IPhonz and you should find it really easy - When you find SSJ5Trunks (IPhonz Developer) XDA Site - Follow the link to his blog site for links for the cab files for his IPhonz app - Use Google translator found on his blog page though as his blog is in Italian.

Mighty just ignore this person - I have already reported him for these actions - Let the Moderators deal with him. He or she is not worth it
Edit : I have noticed that you have started three threads asking for the same thing. This is against the rules. I suggest strongly that you read the forum rules found in the FAQ's and the rules for each forum before starting any more threads. I also suggest reading the WIKI to learn about your device(s). The key to figuring anything out in this forum is "reading" be ready to do lots of it. There is much to learn and much available for many WM Devices in this forum - It takes time to figure out how things are set up and how to search for things, but it does get easier once you have done it for a while.
I found Ifonz too sluggish on my Touch running Onyx, prefer Winterface.
