I have a windows app that's running for a while and recently when I'm trying to deploy the application on windows phone running windows 8.1 OS(using visual studio 2013 and windows phone application deployment) I'm getting the following error:
"You have installed the maximum number of development apps. These apps are installed to your device when you start them in Visual Studio or when you use the App Deployment Tool. Please uninstall one of them and then try again."
I've tried to reset the phone, renaming the app and the phone on windows explorer, unregister & register the phone and also uninstalling all the other applications on it.
The problem is happening on two different devices Nokia Lumia 630 & Nokia Lumia 920.
Is there another way to approach this?
Thanks in advance
This issue has been fix now and we can register our Windows Phone 8.1 for developing:
Could you please try to unregister the Phone from the Dev Center and register Phone again to see if it works?

I have created a Xamarin application and compiled to Release. It was succesfully tested on an Android emulator so I decided to deploy it to a Windows Phone 8.0 Emulator.
I tried to use the Application Deployment but it cannot install because it starts the emulator that never boots, it shows OS starting (starting the emulator on its own is working).
So I downloaded it to the phone and when I try to open it, it says:
Can't install company app. There is a problem with this company app.
Contact your company's support person for help.
Why is the app considered company app? How can I install it to the emulator? What should I set?
The solution consists of two steps.
The company app issue is present because I've downloaded the application from a website, so it is unsafe (the source is the Internet). I have to install it through application deployment (via Visual Studio 2013 or the Windows Phone Application Deployment application).
The second step is to discard (and uninstall) Windows Phone 8.0 and change to Windows Phone 8.1. That helps a lot.
Ok so I got windows 8.1 nextbook to test on. I created some basic browser app in visual studio running on virtual windows server 2012 r2. My main machine is windows 7. When I connect with USB cable nothing happens (who could have predicted that). I thought I could deploy my app on tablet and do a debug like that but haven't find a way to do it. Anybody here with experience in this scenario, I googled everywhere and the only thing I found is that documentation sucks
You cannot run a Windows Phone app on Windows. You need a Windows Phone or a Windows Phone emulator to run the Windows Phone app. To run on Windows you need to write a Windows Store app. Windows 8.1 on a tablet is the same as Windows 8.1 on a desktop or laptop computer.
In your case you'll probably need a physical Windows Phone since you are already running virtualized. The Windows Phone emulator is a Hyper-V image and is not supported nested in a Hyper-V guest OS.
If you write a Windows Universal app then the code will be mostly the same for the Windows and Windows Phone targets (the UI layer is usually different), so you can write and test the bulk of the app as a Windows Store app to run on your tablet and then recompile for Windows Phone.
everytime I try to start my app on my Lumia 1020 I get this error:
Error: DEP6250 : The Device runs on a not supported version of the OS
(I translated it from german...)
I "unlocked" my phone a few minutes ago so I think that this won't be the problem.
I also searched for an update but everything is fine...
I used the free Visual Studio express 2013 for store developers
Does anyone have ideas?
Your problem is that you are probably trying to deploy a Windows Phone 8.1 app to a device running Windows Phone 8.0. That is not possible. You need to Either create a Windows Phone 8.0 app and run it on the device or update your device to Windows Phone 8.1 in order to run WP8.1 apps. Windows Phone 8.0 apps will work on WP8.1 but the other way around will not happen.
I want to see how far I can take my Surface 2 for developing in Visual Studio 2013. Please note that this is a Surface 2 running WinRT - not full version.
Here is my setup
Surface 2 on desktop mode with RDP.
Windows 2012 running HyperV with a Windows 8.1 VM.
On the Windows 8.1 VM I have installed VS 2013. Naturally, HyperV gets installed as well.
My problems
My first thought was that I could use the Emulator but it complains that it failed to start because some of the Hyper-V components are not running. After some research this seems to be the result of Hyper-V in Hyper-V.
Then I tried to use an alternate approach. To share my Windows Phone through USB. I inserted my "Nokia Lumia 1020" in USB port of Surface 2. I could then see it in my desktop. Also, when I started RDP application I could see "Nokia Lumia 1020" under Local resources->Other supported Plug and Play devices. I checked it for sharing. I connected again but the phone was not visible on the guest operating system.
Anyone else done this? Either know how to circumvent the Hyper-V in Hyper-V or share the phone for development (through RDP).
You can't use hyper-v without windows 8 pro, I'm sorry... Try nokia's device rdp (http://developer.nokia.com/resources/remote-device-access) ...
I have installed Windows Phone 8 SDK, openened the VS express for Windows Phone,
created New Project with simple app, pressed F5, but the emulator wont start.
Is comes up with error:
Exception from HRESULT: 0x89721800
I don't have any network drivers installed which should be called Windows Phone Emulator.
I have Windows 8, with built-in Administrator account and full privs.
P.s. Main reason for this I want to deploy some apps on my Nokia Lumia 800.
I have unlocked it, but when i was deploying app with deployment tool, it came up with the same error message.
P.p.s I've installed Windows Phone SDK 7 and there the emulator worked, but i can't find any way to deploy app to phone
I blogged about this a couple of weeks ago. You can see the full details here: Resolving windows Phone Emulator Problems
XDE cleanup, and Hyper-V is a very common reson for problems with the emulator!
Regarding deployment to phone from windows phone sdk 7, remember to change debug device from "Emulator WVGA 512 MB" (or what ever you use) to "Device", and always start Zune before your start debugging and deployment.
If you had installed Windows 8 (Single Language or Home Edition) with Windows Phone 8 SDK you can't develop mobile applications because it doesn't support Hyper-V.
The only way to work with Windows Phone 8 is to change your OS to Windows Pro or higher.
