First time developing Windows Phone 8.1 Universal App.
I figured how to create the .appx file after some googling. But now I need to deploy it to multiple customer devices, didn't figure that yet. For the moment I'm trying to deploy it to my development device, but it keeps throwing this error (see attached image).
I only have the myApp_ARM.appx file on my AppPackages folder. I can't find or browse to %FOLDERID_SharedData%. I have no idea where to find this ARM_Optimized.appx file.
First, reboot your phone, make sure there is no update pending. It should let you deploy into your phone.
Second, for deploying to multiple customer devices, use Hockeyapp (hockeyapp.net) to distribute the appx or use enterprise app feature.
Whenever I am starting to test an Windows Phone app (even a blank app) on emulator, I am getting error "The project needs to be deployed before it can be started". The emulator will be started & run successfully, still no luck in deploying app on emulator. Getting error DEP6100 & DEP6200.
These are the stuffs I tried till now:
Checked "deploy" option in 'Configuration Manager'.
Tried deploying Windows 10 Mobile, Windows Phone 8.1 & Windows Phone 8 blank apps on different types of emulators.
Although I am able to run apps on my device.
I am running Visual Studio Enterprise 2015 on Windows 10 Enterprise.
The Emulator is x86 based and Phone is ARM architecture. To run the app in the emulator, change the CPU to x86 in the toolbar and compile it. Now you can deploy te App to the Emulator and test it.
I faced problem like that and I fixed it by right click on project > properties > change platform target to X86.
I just started playing with Xamarin Forms, and ran into this error after following the Xamarin Forms Quickstart Guide. The error message actually said to Run the Deploy... for the project that you are trying to run. Deploying the project seems to install some Windows dependencies that might be required to run the UMP. After deploying the project, it ran without issue as a Windows Desktop app, or if you change to Device, then install emulator, as Windows Phone app.
This error was relentlessly happening to me as well, and I found out that it was because my project was saved on a SanDisk SD card. If I simply moved the entire solution to my C drive, it built without issue, but on the D drive, it would give this error.
I build an easy App in visual studio 2013, creating it through the windows phone project. The main thing is that it's supposed to fetch data from a API of my choice and write to an XML- document. It worked code-wise but depending on what network I was using(Wireless), It gave me either and error or it worked. It worked if I compiled with my phone as the network supplier, but not on my wireless at home or the schools network.
The error I recived everytime was "the thread has exited with code 259"
I googled for some solutions, and I guessed (Not really sure it was the answer I was looking for) that the error was due because of the phone emulator "takes" my PC's IP adress or network.
They told me to just remove my phone emulator on Hyper-V manager and then just re-start my emulation and it should work.
After this was done, all hell broke lose, cause now, visual studio can't even connect to the emulator.It creates a new phone emulator in hyper-v, but can't connect to it. When I try to compile the app I created it says "Trying to connect to "WVGA 512MB" or if I choose another "WVGA 720". It does this for about 3-5 min and then it says "An error occured. Would you like to continue?"
Now I have no idea what to do. I've googled for almost 2 days and I am at lost. I've un-installed, re-installed, repaired all my visual studio but nothing helps. I am using visual studio premium 2013 if that helps..
I guess this is due to the network issues, as you said the emulator takes the default PC's IP address. But normally after removing the emulator from the Hyper-V Manager and when you try to restart it, it should work.
If none of them works try removing all the Virtual Switches from your Virtual Switch Manager which is within the Hyper-V Manager. Then create a new Internal type of a Virtual Switch and restart your machine. Then try launching the emulator.

I get the error code 80073cf9 when I try to install an 8.1 app (.appx) from the Store on my 920 with 8.1 Preview.
The app is 8.1 only and I'm able to run it and install it when deploying from my laptop.
I have the development build installed on my phone.
Solution
Uninstall the development build from your phone and then you will be able to download the app from Store.
Some interesting facts
Since 8.1 (.appx) you can not install an app from Store if you already have the app installed. This include your development builds deployed from your computer.
Before 8.1 (.xap) you were able to run both your development build and the Store app at the same time. This was since the Store changed the GUID of the app when it was uploaded. For some reason Store doesn't change the GUID of the uploaded app anymore.
I also meet the error 80073CF9. With my case, the reason is the setting of memory location. I reproduced the issue as below:
1. I chose phone memory to install apps
2. Second, I updated the phone from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Somehow, I changed to SD card memory to install apps.
3. After upgrading to Windows 10, some apps had to be reinstalled, but the error 80073CF9 raised. At that moment, the phone still used SD card memory to install apps, not the same as the original memory.
--> I switch the memory to install apps from SD card to phone (Setting / Storage / Store new apps on my Phone. It's done.
Conclusion with my case: The memory in order to install application has been changed
I had the same problem on my Lumia 730.
Solution: Go to settings->Tap on storage sense->temporary files-> delete

I am running a simple ootb new Windows Phone 8.0 application in the emulator for Visual Studio 2013. I am using a Surface Pro, 1st generation, core i5, 4 GB RAM. Hyper V is installed, with no other virtualizing systems (like VirtualBox). Connecting via wireless.
When I run the emulator and am prompted, "Do you want to configure the emulator to connect to the Internet?", if I select "Yes", I get the following error message:
The Windows Phone Emulator wasn't able to create the external network switches:
Something happened while creating a switch:
Failed while creating virtual Ethernet switch.
Ethernet port '{...}' - bind failed: {Out of Paper} The printer is out of paper. (0x8000000E).
I have tried running through solutions suggested here and here, but unsuccessfully.
Any further ideas as to what can be done?
Is there a virtual switch in hyper-v called " Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch"? This was not created for me when I ran into your situation. If you create a new one manually with that exact name, and set to internal, it should work. I found the solution on a bloenter link description hereg.
