[22/05] W.I.N.C.O. mini SDK WP7 (4.21Mb instead of 1.4Gb) now on wAppStore

Mini SDK for WP is now available for download also from :
http://wappstore.org/win/?cid=&showapp=35
... and for registered tester (available for all and easy registration with a few click) is available newer version of wAppStore client for Windows Phone.
Added multilanguage support, available languages are Czech, German, France, Italy, Polish, Russian, Slovak and Chinese
Download from :
http://wappstore.org/wp/?cid=&showapp=1
This smaller SDK is designated for users who do not want complete SDK for WP7 (1.4 Gb on disk) but only part needed for installation of XAP (Microsoft.SmartDevice.Connectivity.dll)
Size of this installation is 4.21 Mb of course there is not supported emulator and others posibilities of full SDK.
You can use it for :

I downloaded ISO of SDK , unpacked WPSDK_en.msi and by method "attemp / mistake" and of cource a little intuition I created this smaller pack.
I will be delighted when join other brave and help me completely clean and test that ;-)
... or create a nice installer or modul for applications using Microsoft.SmartDevice.Connectivity.dll for PC communication with WP7.

Wowww! thxx!!

Works great on my Windows 8 partition. Thank you.

You should post this in the Windows Phone 7 main area instead of device specific thread.

Hello W.I.N.C.O., could you please update your Mini SDK to the current version (7.1 final)?
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=27570
Thanks

unable to install in XP, is it compatible with XP?

Thank you, W.I.N.C.O. work fine....wiht 4,5 mb
cu go2mp

It would be great to have also the official developer unlocker and the official deployer in this pack. That should not take up much disk space.
Thanks!

help
I quite dont understand how yo use it?? Do i install it on the PC if so how does the apps install to phone. Do i need to install it on my phone if so how do i flash it on. thanks

awesome , giving it a mention on 1800PocketPC

i cannot get this to install. i run the setup file and it says preparing, then closes and nothing happens. i have windows 7 x64

great,
thank you for sharing

Can't install on XP pro sp3. get error 2337 and note there might be a problem with the package.

Great work! Thank you!

Could anyone kindly explain how to install the mini SDK?
I understand that I should run WPSDK_en.msi, and then copy the other folders to their corresponding places. However I'm not sure where should I copy the following folders:
Application Data
AppSrch
CommonAppData
Thanks in advance!

Unzip miniSDK and run WPSDK_en.msi, that all... .msi copy file from unzipped folder to needed places, after that you can delete unzipped files.

I was able to get the full SDK 7.1 to run under XP and am ChevronWP7 and interop unlocked. I had to change a couple lines in a file "baseline.dat" and it installed. Maybe it can be done with this as well or ask the developer to do it. If you google "how to install the windows phone developers tools in Windows XP" you will find the directions.

HAve downloaded WPSDK and when trying to install on windows 7 it shows dialogue box indicating it is gathering information and then stops going any further. What might I be doing wrong with the installation?

Any tips to get this to work in Windows 7?
Like most others it stops after the initial screen.

Locations offline navigation by HTC

Locations is now available for HTC WP7 devices for offline navigation. You can use Wi-Fi to download maps for many (most) regions around the world. You must connect to a charger to download.
The description is "Find your way with directions or voice guidance. You can download maps to your phone for offline use, or search and browse online maps when you're connected."
Current version is Locations_v2.1.0.0.xap
Rename files to:
Locations_v2.1.0.0.7z.001
Locations_v2.1.0.0.7z.002
ie take .7z from end of filename

.002 is giving me a 404 File not found...can you re-up?

fixed. please try again

Also could try this:

Thanks!

if you have HTC device, or dont know how to handle with attachments, no need to download this, simple go to marketplace, HTC Apps and download from there
or for other devices, use wAppStore for PC or WP7
PC

WP7 XAP

After renaming how do I copy to HD2? It's not a .xap file.

Extract with WinRAR or similar on PC then deploy. Id suggest you take dxdy's suggestions above instead though.

Yes, extra with a compression program WinRar, Winzip, 7-zip
Then deploy using a .xap deployer such as XAPDeploy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016766
Connect USB, fire up Zune, then deployer and load xap

Having a free GPS app like the one in Lumia phones, was my only reason to have an unlocked ROM. Now i think i'll keep my actual ROM (XBmod-Yuki). Congrats to HTC for having this app available to all.

As dxdy said if you have HTC device the easiest way is to go to market.

Depends I what you want.
I prefer to have an .xap that I can load if/when I change to a different rom. I don't always want all .xap apps installed right away.
Downloading a file this each time from the marketplace would take considerable time.
That's why I went to the effort of making it available

is many tools to download xap from marketplace to PC....
i also suggest one...

It works, just need to decompress to get the .xap.

I have an LG Optimus 7. Is there any way that I can install this app? I tried installing aAppStore from the link mentioned earlier in my Windows 7 laptop but I keep getting an error message before the app starts and it closes instantly... I also tried visiting the wAppStore.xap using the web browser of my mobile phone but I got a message that this type of file is not supported by my phone.
Any detailed help would be more than welcome!

Sorry, cant help. That's why I put this in the HD2 forum. It's a HD2 release, so I guess it will need some work to get it to work on an LG

why not install xap file with XAPDeployX? XAP install via IE is only for HTC devices with DFT custom ROM....
did your phone unlocked (Chevron or interop)? did you have .net Framework 4 and WP SDK installed on PC?
did your Zune running and synced with phone when try run wAppStore on PC?
P.S.
my advice: use Nokia Drive 2.0 if you can use this app.... is much better than Locations....

Thank you for the detailed reply. I just got the phone a week ago, so I am not familiar with all these apps and ways to install xap files. The phone is not unlocked.
I guess I will have to do a research on the apps that you mention, hoping that they would work (for example Nokia maps is bot available for my Optimus 7 through the marketplace).
Thanks again and apologies for the off-topic!

[Q] View Windows Phone 8.1 System Files

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to view the file system of a Windows Phone 8.1 device? I have a phone that is developer unlocked and would like to the file structure of the device or access files that are hidden away from the user. I can see the downloads, music, photos etc using the new Nokia/Microsoft Files app, but can not get into something like the windows phone equivelent to C:\Users\xxx\AppData.
I came across this post on the forums which is an xap file for allowing browsing over a network (converts phone to a webserver) but could not deploy to Win Phone 8.1 using the deployment tools due to the file having a missing manifest - I suspect it works for Win Phone 8 rather than 8.1.
Are there any native tools in the Visual Studio environment to browse the device on a dev unlocked device?
Many thanks,
Simon

You can see some system files and registry keys via the WebServer XAP. *But, he is limited*

Thanks anaheiim, I managed to sucessfully deploy the WebAccess_0_5_0.xap but not the AllCapabiliities version which is what I had tried before. I was hoping to be able to access the Win8 desktop equivelent to:-
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Packages
Do you happen to know if that is possible?

Yes, you can not deploy AllCap, because you are not Interop-Unlock, etc... only the ativ s allow.
You only have access to C:\Windows\... (It seems to me), that is why I said it was limited.

You can also download any Nokia Lumia FFU and use the imgMount too to convert the ffu into a vhd file. Then you can just mount the vhd file on your PC and browse away!

[WP10] Possibility of installing .xap files / unsupported apps on Huawei W1 [solved]

So i upgraded my Huawei W1 to WP10 TP. Unfortunately I'm facing several problems:
1) I can't deploy .xap files anymore (I guess the backward compatibility ended with WP10)
2) The store won't let me download Here Drive (the device doesn't meet the requirements)
3) Being a smart cookie I tried downloading Here Drive from the store manually but I only get an .xap file which due to 1) I can't deploy to my device
So my questions are:
1) Is there a way how I still can deploy a .xap file to a WP10 phone?
2) Does the store use the registry to determine if a phone is capable of running an app? If so: If I edit the registry to fake a capable device, will I be able to install from store and run the app?
3) Can I force the store to provide the app in .appx rather than .xap file format? General procedure for manual downloading mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/apps-games/apps-marketplace-t3171675

1) Have you tried openning developer mode?
2) Yes
3) What will it do if the app is an appx rather than xap?

@tolipwen
3) No appx is appx and xap is xap

My phone is in developer mode and I'm using (well trying to) WinAppDeployCmd. Unfortunately this will only accept .appx or .appxbundle. So the tool will just refuse sending an .xap to my phone running WP10.
On WP8.1 I used WPV XAP Deployer 2.0 for deploying my apps but it won't recognize my wp10 phone anymore. Is there an alternative that I'm missing?

Yes those are two different definitions. What puzzled me was that the store only offered me xap files for download and I tried like 50 apps. I thought most of them would be in the current .appx format.
EDIT: Solved. For some reason my phone gets recognized by the XAP deployer 2.0 now.

You're not supposed to factory reset your phone. In the post I quoted is a step-by-step guide in english. The russian videos are just to clear things up. Please reply in the quoted thread and state at which point you run into troubles.

[need repacked xap]

Hello, xda members I need An repacked xap of tapatalk.can any one share the xap if you have. Because I can't download from the store.
Thanks
:highfive:

what about this one?
Tapatalk Classic
it's available for Windows 10 Mobile, Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.
yes, it is NOT available by search from the phone (it's really weird...),
BUT it is available by the direct link.
so to download it from phone, you should open in phone web-browser link "https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9wzdncrfhwnl".
you could do i manually, or open link from email, or Skype message, or OneNote document, or whatever you prefer. and after several seconds, you should see a "Store" application open the details of this app.
unfortunately, this app can't be installed on WP8.1
p.s.: i do not have a fully unlocked WP8, so can't repack it.

not shown into store...app is not available...if you have then repack and send to me.

updated the answer. in short, try to open direct link on your phone.
sorry,
unfortunately, this app can't be installed on WP8.1
did you try it from http://www.appx4fun.com/xap/175/ ?

hey, bro . for repack xap its does not need to full unlock you phone.. only you phone is register for side load two app is enough by developer register tool... then deploy custom WPSystem.xap and copy the install directory with folder and send me its zip...

i see... but unfortunately, i do not have it installed.
but i realized why it can not be installed by direct link: the app is most likely marked as "Make product unavailable" by developer. i checked it with my "Market Purchase History" - the situation is exactly the same: it's available by direct link, but can not be installed at all.
so, sorry, can't help you.
hope the version from appx4fun.com works for you.
