First, if you want to test your app before publishing to Windows Phone Store you should have valid Developer account and developer unlocked phone. Details are here and here
To deploy app from VS2012:
Select from runnable options "Device"
Connect unlocked phone via USB
Unlock lockscreen on device - you should see home screen

I have recently finished working on an App for Windows Phone 8.1 and 10 - I have successfully been able to deploy it on both type of phone by using Windows Phone Application Deployment 8.1 tool.
I am now trying to load the app into the store and create a flight package so my develop phone should be able to see, download and install the app from the Microsoft Store on the device.
I am having 2 'problems' right now:
+ the App is not showing on the Store
+ using the app URL from the store, I am able to find the app but it is only available for downloading on the Windows 10 phone and it comes back unavailable on the Windows Phone 8.1
Here is some screenshots which should give an idea of my set ups:
Apart from the above, I would like to mention that I have added my Microsoft account to the devices so ideally I should be able to see the App!
Let me know guys if it makes sense and if you need further details to help me
Thanks
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.
I'm doing a Windows Phone 8.1 application. It works ok, I can try it on emulator and on my phone, because I've registered it.
Now, I have to pass the app to my client to test it (they are going to test it on multiple devices). I was looking but I didn't find any aswer to this questions:
How can I create and send them an appx that they can install on their phones?
What kind of developer license I need?
Do they have to register their phones with the same certificate I create the appx?
How can they install the appx I've sent them via email for example?
Thank you very much!
sideloading Windows Phone appx files is not directly possible if the device is no registered developer device. And sadly there can be only 3 devices registered.
You can set up a new app in your developer account dashboard and submit it to the store as a beta version. Then you can "invite" up to 10000 people by entering their email addresses.
More info here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj215598%28v=vs.105%29.aspx
For eg. we use https://testflightapp.com to distribute iOS app (also android now) and for Android directly send across the .apk file. But windows phone is not allowing installing the app directly using build .xap file.
This is only possible when the devices of the testers are registers as developer devices. This in turn means that your testers need to have a developer account. You as developer can register up to 5 devices as developer devices under your account, even if they don't belong to you. Other than that you cannot deploy an xap package onto a device.
When you upload an app to the Windows Phone you can mark this app as beta. This will lead to a reduced certification time and you can update your beta any time. Then you can provide up to 10000 E-Mail addresses of users that will test your app and only those will be able to download it. You can find more info on that here
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
