I am successfully able to create and download build from CN1 server for Windows 8.
I am also able to unlock my windows phone (Microsoft Lumia 640 Windows OS 8.1) using 'Windows Phone Developer Registration' utility.
See below image.
But still I am getting this error, any suggestion please ?
For a testing sake, I created one dummy app just having textfields and even that simple one didn't work.
Thanks.
To run your app on windows phone 8, you have to do the following:
You must be a registered developer.
The phone must be registered.
The phone must be connected to the host computer with the USB cable,
turned on, and the screen must be unlocked.
To test apps on a Windows Phone 8 device:
The Windows Phone IP over USB Transport service must be running. This
service is installed and started when you install the Windows Phone
SDK 8.0.
The computer must recognize the connected device. A Windows Phone 8
phone is listed as a drive in File Explorer.

For some the issue was resolved by following the below:
Disconnected the Phone from the USB. Then went to 'Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Devices' and Removed Device. Then connected the Phone to the USB.
I have a Nokia Lumia 1020 that I need to register as a testing device for my Windows Phone Apps. It is running Lumia Cyan thus Windows 8.1. I have Windows Phone SDK 8.1 and 8.0 installed on my machine and when I try to use the Windows Phone Developer Registration (8.1) interface or the normal one (Windows Phone Developer Registration unde Windows Phone SDK 8.0 i keep getting the same error. Unable to connect to a Phone. Make sure that the Windows Phone IP over USB Transport Service is running. I try to restart the service, switch ports, switch from Wi-Fi to 3G network on my phone. Nothing works. I have ensured that the Phone is showing as a device under File Explorer and when I connect the phone to my computer it does launch the Windows Phone app for desktop well. I am not sure what to do at this point and it's getting frustrating. I have tried to reinstall the SDKs and still nothing. I do have a developer account and developer account details intact. Please help... someone.... anyone :(
I finally figured it out. I went to device manager and found under Universal Serial Bus Devices and found device drivers of my phone on all the ports where I had connected the USB cable. I then right-clicked on one that showed that needed an update. I clicked on update device driver software where it scanned for updates and found out that the driver was up to date then I realized that it was not enabled. I enabled it and it was able to recognize the phone. However I had to keep restarting the service since the software kept going offline as well as switching from 3G to Wi-Fi. And it finally worked :)
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.
Is there a way to install signed applications over the air on the windows 8 and windows phone 8 platforms?
I'm looking for something similar to iOS wireless app distribution with its itms-services:// uri scheme. Basically, I want to direct users to a web page where they can download and install a signed application package on their device by clicking a link.
But it seems (from the information I gathered from the available documentation) that Microsoft allow app installation only by using the Windows Store, or by Sideloading (in the case of Windows RT, 8 Pro and 8 Entreprise) or by enrolling users phones for company app distribution (in the case of Windows Phone 8).
are these really the only methods available?
Thanks in advance.
For the Phone you could use the beta testing feature. It will not show in the store and only be available for users you have registered via their Microsoft account formerly Live ID. The app will run through certification and therefore will not be hosted on your own server.
For Windows 8.x you will still have to go the side loading route as there is currently no beta testing feature available.
HTH
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.
