I have been running in some problem of deploying my app in my nokia lumia 520 its and windows 8 phone.
I have my application in visual studio express 2012 for windows phone.When i build the project and deploy the .xap file in my mobile using the app deployment tool the app gets installed but doesnt runs properly...it is unable to get the css files and the view files.
But when i deploy it using Visual Studio>>Build>>Deploy method the app gets installed and also runs as expected.The main thing is that it also uses the same .xap file which i used while deploying the app using the app deployment tool
Now i am not able to make out where am i going wrong.
Please help

I've been trying to deploy vcREG to my Windows Phone using the deployment app installed while installing Windows Phone SDK. I downloaded the app over the internet and I wanted to interop unlock my phone using it. But, while installing, it gives me an error, to fix capabilities in the WMAppManifest.xml file. Please help me by providing the correct file with all capabilities fixed.
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.
My use case, I have Windows 8.1 XAML app v1.0 in appx package. I'd like to deploy this version on my tablet, use it for a while and then test update of this app to version 1.1 which I have in another appx package.
Is this easily possible for tablet apps? I know that for Windows Phone there is Application Deployment Tool, but for Windows 8.1 there is nothing I know about.
Thanks
As long as your tablet is running Windows 8.1 you can side-load the app onto it.
Create the app package using Visual Studio. Then run the Powershell script on your tablet to install the package. (You will be required to have a developer license on the tablet). When you are ready to test the next version just follow the same steps.

Create App pakages option is disabled..
Cuz i have to upload my app package so as to publish it.. so am stuck with it.
i Have also logind with my developer microsoft account to0.
Edit:
actually in Visual Studio 2013,
in PROJECT > STORE> (all the options available are disabled)... so this the problem.
If your app is Windows Phone 8.1 App, you can create appx package using project -> store in vs.
But if your app is Windows Phone 8 App or Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 App, you don't need to create appx file, the only file you need is xap file in Bin/Release(or Debug) folder. When you publish it, just upload your xap file is OK.
Happened the same to me, and (after 20 minutes of VS restarts), I realized the Project needs to be selected instead of the Solution at the Solution Explorer.
This way all Store options are enabled again.
I have created a windows Phone application, and how do I give this application to the client, Do I give him my project folder i.e Getcontacts? and also client wants to install this application to emulator because in the client machine only emulator is installed.
Is there any way to create the install file of the application that I give to the client and client will easily install into the emulator. Kindly suggest me on these queries..
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks.
If the client has the emulator installed, he can deploy a XAP to it using 'Application Deployment' (open the start menu and type Application Deployment). You can select the target (one of the emulators) and then choose the XAP file.
On your end, set the build configuration to Release and build the solution. Then navigate to the project folder/Bin/Release and that's where you will find the .xap that you need to send to your client.
Here's an MSDN article for the Application Deployment tool: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/ff402565(v=vs.105).aspx#BKMK_tool
To test the app your client need to be a registered developer(He need to create developer account on Microsoft developer.
To Access Application Deployment tool your client needs to install Windows Phone SKD
then launch Application Deployment tool from installed SDK folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0\Tools\XAP Deployment\XapDeploy.exe
OR launch it from start menu by typing Application Deployment.
Now he just need to give the path of the xap file(debug or release version) and select the desired testing target.
P:S. you can also deploy the app on app store and set publish version to beta for testing the app at any device without having developer account and installing windows phone SDK.
