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.

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.

Is there a way to sideload a Windows phone 8 Enterprise app?
I can only find sideloading documentation on Windows 8 desktop store apps.
Any idea?
Sideloading is only a feature that is given to Company distributed applications. The company manages a MDM(Mobile Device Management) , and the APPX file is distributed through email or server or local storage.
The company has to have a Microsoft System Center 2012 for managing the applications . The phones are company specific and the apps can be directly deployed without going throgh the App store

"System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException" unhandled exception of type occurs in System.Windows.ni.dll
Although your question has many room for improvement you could find a solution here Consuming Local Web Applications In short: you need to alter the configuration of IIS in order for Windows Phone 8 to be able to use your web services.
I am trying to setup an enrollment server for managing Windows Phone devices. I know that there is a discovery service at http://enterpriseenrollment.mydomain.com/EnrollmentServer/Discovery.svc which will provide the enrollment service URL.
What is the behavior of Discovery.svc?
Is this a service that I need to develop?
If yes, what sort of methods should be in there in this service?
How to setup the Enrollment service? What are its methods?
