Open up the marketplace, search for the app and download/buy it. Alternatively, you can use the windows phone store website and download the .xap file there, put it on a microSD and put that in your phone.
For apps that you developed yourself, or that somebody else developed, you can install the WP8 SDK on a Win8 PC and use the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool to dev-unlock your phone (assuming you have a dev account, which is an annoying restriction) and then use the App Deployment tool (or Visual Studio) to send the app to the phone. This can only be done with apps which are not from the store, though.

This might be a stupid question but does anybody know how to get apps off the market from a computer because i dont have internet on my xv6900, or can i download apps of a emulator or something?
there are sites that offer downloads of market apps, some are warez so I can't post links. you would then need to install via adb or place on SD card and use file manager to install them.

You could connect to the internet via Activesync & download stuuf from Markeplace. That is what I do.
You can also check out androidfreeware.org. Not a huge selection but still some descent stuff.
Hello Everyone ,
First off I would like to say I’m new to this forum. I’m hoping to learn alot about my new android Galaxy S captivate phone. I have a couple questions regarding my phone, I would really appreciate if you guys can help me.
1.I bought one app from the market store, I later restore my phone. There anyway to retrieve my app without paying for it again?
2.What is rooting is it just like jailbreaking an iphone?
Thanks,
Michael
Hello there!
1. My guess is that if you login to the market with the same account, you will not have to buy the app again. If you login with a different account, yes, you will pay for it again
2. Rooting means that you have SuperUser access to your phone (just like Administrator for windows). You will be able to install extra programs like task managers, and file managers in order to access the root of your phone (the core of your linux-capable smartphone)
Note that you DO NOT have to root in order to install "pirated" material!

Yes, but keep in mind, don't rely on pirated programs. Google has already provided a framework which developers can use to prevent their use illegally. It allows developers to test if the phones owner purchased the software they installed on start. Previously, pirated APK's I believe ran fine on other devices just by copying the package.
And yes, as mentioned, it is similar to jailbreaking, but unlike the iPhone, rooting has limited uses on Android (because you can install software from 3rd parties anyway).
Last question, lets say if I root my phone, and i magically screwed up. Can there be a chance where my phone is brick and no longer repairable?
Hello,
one of the biggest problems in bada app development is the lack of simple mechanisms to install apps to the handsets of beta-testers. There is a way to do this when the tester has installed the bada SDK on his pc, but i always thought it should be possible without it.
This is why i started to examine what the SDK does when you're running an app on the target device, and begun to recreate this mechanism. What i have now is a tool that installs in-development app on a handset. The tester only has to install the root certificate from the SDK on his phone, no need to download and install the whole SDK anymore.
Any interested app developer can contact me to get a copy of the tool for his own app for free! For security reasons, the tool has a hard-coded list of known apps that it can install, so there is no reason to offer it as direct download here.
The tool offers the possibility to restrict installation to handsets with certain IMEIS, as well as an expiration date after which the app can't be installed anymore.

are you using some different method than broker.exe?? i have been using this exe file from sdk to distribute application for my clients.
No, what i ahve done is to watch what broker.exe does, and to rebuild that in my tool.
I found solution to rename .xap to .zip and be able to edit .xap but It's not working. Probably new .xap's are encrypted. Any solution? Is there any tool for decompile?
XAPs themselves are still regular ZIP-Files. They get encrypted when they are uploaded to the Marketplace. Therefore you seem to try to crack Software downloaed from the Marketplace. There is currently no known way to make this happen.
If you have a developer-unlocked device, I thought you could sideload unsigned/self-signed xap files? I'm new to this whole Windows Phone thing though. I still need to set up a dev box with Windows 8 on it so I can write apps!

Side-load? Sure. If you have an SD card slot on your device. Be aware, that the device will still contact the store to double check the file, so you won't escape payment like this.
You need a Windows 8 PC to develop apps, and those you will be able to side-load once you get your phone registered. (Check this), but since browsing the file system is currently not possible, you still won't be able to access the side-loaded app.
The process to put Apps on the phone is like this:
1 XAP uploaded by Dev to the Store
2 XAP gets precompiled and encrypted
A3 XAP gets downloaded from the Store on the Device
or
B3 XAP gets downloaded from the Store Homepage and put on SD Card
B4 XAP gets selected for install from SD Card inside the Device
B5 Store is contacted to check the App license
6 device decrypts XAP
7 device installs App
So you can't decrypt Apps that have been downloaded from the Store. The whole key Management is currently only done on the device and to my knowledge not broken.
There is another path for App Installation if you have a developer unlocked device.
1 Write App
2 Package App in XAP file (this XAP is unencrypted and can either be uploaded to the Store where it would get encrypted or)
3 Deploy XAP to the unlocked device
4 Device accepts unsigned XAP due to developer unlock
5 App is installed
There are Tools that allow you to Access the Isolated Storage of Apps you have deployed using the developer unlock (look for Apps like the Windows Phone Power Tools). You can not deploy XAP files that are encrypted using that way though (protection against piracy).
I know all this tricks, and I'm using xap deployer to deploy xap and all of that.
I just want to know is here any way to hack or crack some xaps? Is here any black market to download cracked xaps?
so you said no way to extract XAP from Store. :/
No there isn't. But if you're looking for Warez you're at the wrong address anyway.

I found application that can recompile installed app back to .xap with no encryption.
But I can't install that excavated app.

Since you have made it abundantly clear your out for things you haven't paid for, you should leave.

Hi everyone,
Microsoft recently stopped supporting/removed from the store the Photosynth app.
I currently have this installed on my Lumia 1020 (developer unlocked) and would like to find some way of exporting/backup the Photosynth app so that I can re-install it should I need to reset my phone (currently running Windows 10 mobile 10.0.10166.0).
I've read some of the posts on the site and the impression I'm getting is the answer will be no (or at least not just yet - saw a post that someone is releasing an interops workaround with the Win10M release).
However my questions are:
Is there a way to get to the Photosynth app on the phone and extract it to the PC for re-install at a later time?
I did manage to find a link (https:__web_archive_org_web_20141004155439_http:__www_windowsphone_com_en-gb_store_app_photosynth_ef860a79-5f68-4ed6-aa21-c038d1a55517) that downloads the Photosynth app from the store (via web browser - http:__cdn_marketplacecontent_windowsphone_com_public_ad68f520-cd34-4ebf-947e-e92173f5b946?downloadname=photosynth_xap), although this file seems to be encrypted (which I believe is the norm for store apps now), but is there some way I can still install it to the phone? I'm not really interested in decrypting the file or anything like that (unless that's the only way to accomplish what I want to do), I just want a copy of the app for re-installation purposes (which if Microsoft had left in the Store even though it was retired wouldn't have been an issue, but I understand why they do it).
Thanks all.
As I'm not allowed to post URL's I removed the dots and forward slashes and replaced them with underscores, I'm sure if anyone needs the links they can figure out what's been replaced.
you need phone with SD card and developer or interop unlock
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...-vcreg-lumia-reg-editor-live-interop-t3135326
after dev/interop unlock, just with file manager (Aerize Explorer for example) go to D:\WPSystem\apps\ef860a79-5f68-4ed6-aa21-c038d1a55517\Install\ and copy content of this folder to other folder (for example downloads)... compress files to zip and copy to computer... now come part which not allowed on XDA (patching)
P.S:
check your PM
Can can youa alos pm me the steps

dxdy,
Could you PM me the instructions on how to patch? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
the repackaged photosynth.xap file is available by searching the internet. When properly repackaged, the contents of the xap file can be viewed in a file archive utility such as 7zip. I was able to sideload PhotoSynth into my Lumia 925 this way. The original copies of the xap files that aren't repackaged will not successfully open in the Windows Phone Application Deployment tool. File size: original=4067KB, repackaged=4045KB for your reference.
Could someone please pm me the steps or the patched version from the photosynth app too? Thanks.
EDIT: Got it.
Just went to my library (previously installed apps and games) list in the store and there I've founded the latest Photosynth version. Just installed it from there and now I have it.
