use search first .
You need to first developer unlock your phone then you can use Windows Phone Power Tools and SDK 8.0 Application Deployer to install xap files. Number of xaps you can install is related to your dev account and it's maybe 2-3-4 or 10 maximum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400451

if its a legit, active store app, (the page has a download and install manually option) you can put it on the SD card and see if the Store will pick it up. (it will show up under SD card)

Help: i am blocked

Hi,
How to install apk when:
- data connexion doesn't work
- there is no file browser installed by default by the build
- adding apk into Android/SystemApps or into Android/AndroidApps doesn't work befroe installing the build
I tried to use also I2APK but my HD2 is not recognized in windows XP: on the HD2 which usb mode i have to use in this case: charge only? Disk drive? ...
I havae already check the USB debugging mode.
Please help me
Regards
Two options you got:
1. Wi-Fi which I assume u dont have ;-);
2. Download Droid Explorer on your computer (http://de.codeplex.com/) and install it. It detects your Android phone. You can install applications to your phone from there.
Hope it helps.
Thanks
This is assuming you're running with the folder name Android:
If it doesn't exist already, create a folder called AndroidApps under your Android folder. Copy the apk that you want to install into that folder. Reboot. (I'd suggest putting a file browser in there like astro or es file explorer). Most builds I've used will install whatever is in that folder on bootup. (When I do a new build, I usually put mybackuppro apk in there, so I can boot up and restore all my data and apps.)

Already done (see my post1) but with this ROM MCCM_HD_V1.2_Beta_3 it has no effect....
I used to do the same as you: all my favorite apk inside this rep.
Regards
- all builds will have android market in it, so download "Linda file manager"
- boot back to winmo
- connect device to pc (usb)
- transfer all your .apk files (assuming you got it in your pc) to a folder (its up to you to name this) in the sd card.
- boot back to android, open up Linda file manager and search for that folder
- there you can install the .apk files you got
Or use adb. Just get your right drivers installed

You just have to make sure the HD2 is booted into Android. Second thing is to make sure you exit out of HTC Sync program. Check in your system tray and right click and exit from it before launching Droid Explorer.
It works for me always.
Edit: n I dont have to choose any option on the HD2 screen, or you can choose 'Charge Only'. That works fine.

Thanksss
Done....
After a few hours on the net and with your advises i succeeded in installing ES File browser and every thing is OK now.
Just for my own information i tried to find a clear tuto of how to use adb and i couldn't find one: have you got one?
I need absolutly to install Android SDK?
What is the Good driver?
If i install this new driver it is not a risk of bad recognition if i connect my HD2 in WinMo mode?
For Droid explorer and I2apk it is this driver which is missign too?
Which USB mode on my HD2 device i have to choose to connect to adb? to droid or I2apk soft?
Regards and thanks again to everybody.
PS: @jigners: As i said i my first post Market Place didn't work because of non data connexion.

How install XAP on LG E900?

Hey,
My LG E900 is the OS version: 7.10.8107.79. And I want to unlock it take to install applications and games XAP. I used the method by MFG, I put XAP in a Tom XAP Installer to install, and gives me this error when installing:
-Please Make sure your phone was unlocked !
-Please Make sure you connected device to PC and Zune launched
Try again?
What happening? This method does not it? You can get the original ROM and remain the ChevronWP7 up to this latest version? I have another way?
Thanks in advance and sorry my english!
On my cell, the Tom xap says the same, but the app is found in the app list. Check your app list
On my phone it does not happen!
I can put original Rom, install ChevronWP7 and remain to Last Version (7.10.7740/7.10.8107, or other)?
If you're sure your phone is developer unlocked, you might want to try the Microsoft Application Deployment program. You can download it on Microsoft's site. It's a part of Windows Phone Developer Tools.
I have same problem here. I have installed Microsoft Application Deployment ,and same problem at tom XAP installer.
Whats problem?
Sorry for by bad english,i am from poland and 15years old ^^
I have an optimus 7(MFG unlocked) too and I have no problems with installing xaps! In fact I installed the whole Windows Phone SDK to get the application deployment....
But I I´m using it with admin rights, maybe that´s the problem for some users?
But VERY IMPORTANT is that you unlock the Lockscreen and start zune before opening toms xap installer or application deployment! If you dont do that, no xap installation method will work.
You have to:
- unlock your device (developer unlock is minimum)
- install Windows Phone SDK
- download eg Windows Phone Power Tools wptools.codeplex.com
- connect device to pc
- start zune
- start Windows Phone Power Tools
- unlock screen (go to your live tiles screen)
- check if in connection drop down list "Windows Phone Device" is selected
- click Connect
and that's all
Lg e900 installing xap failure
Good morning guys I recently acuired Lg Optimous e900,I have installed Zune witch doesn't

Please help me I've wasted many hours with no result
1. "Unlock" phone through MFG
2. Install latest MS Windows Phone SDK
3. Install latest ZUNE
4. Connect phone with PC, ZUNE rise up automatically, wait for ZUNE to fully recognise phone,
5. In phone stiings set Lock Screen to Never and back to Start screen,
6. Run Application Deployment from MS folder previosly installed, as Target set Windos 7 Phone Device and for XAP click Browse to navigate to your wished .xap, click Deploy and wait to do job.
7. Voila, thats it and should work except something wrong with drivers or with WIN on PC.
Work extra fine on my E900 with WP 7.8 latest Update .
P.S. After all, put back Lock Screen to desired state.
Dude,thanks for your rely,the first thing I must make happen is to make my pc detect my
phone in zune in driver manager my phone is desplayed as "LGE Mobile Composite USB Device"
I updated my chipset drivers no luck so far,and tried different usb ports.Anywayz my last hope is to
try today on a lap top that has windows xp :/
Eurika!!!
I FOUND IT!!! the problem solved I had to
I had to open MFG
enter the password 277634#*#
Port setting--> Usb Swithing and I think I put MS Comosite option
then restart,then zune detected my phone
:fingers-crossed:
Help
Hi
My Optimus 7 has been unlocked via the provider Orange and no would like to install Nokia drive.
Do I just add the XAP to the phone or what should I do?
How can I check the phone is unlocked as I have not used MFG or Chevron and how to install drive as I have downloaded the unlocked version.
Thanks

Unlocking Omnia 7 after update

Hi all
I dont know if this is already around but i thought i would share with everyone.
So recently i updated my First Gen Omnia 7 to the latest update which then included the KK2 by samsung which blocked interop unlock.
Some people have had results restoring back and trying windowsbreak again, and some people have had no luck with this way.
I have had a result doing this way
1) Restore back as far as possible.
2) Developer unlock your phone. Search google as you can do this for free (it takes about 30-40 minutes).
3) Download and Install Windows Phone Device Manager & Windows Phone SDK 7.1
4) Using "Windows Phone Developer Registration" that comes with Windows Phone SDK 7.1, plug your phone in and sign into your windows live account that you registered with AppHub. Click Register and your phone is now registered
5) Now open Windows Phone Device Manager with your phone plugged in, this will now install "touchxperience" and you can now browse certain files, install apps etc.
6) Download http://www.wp7roottools.com/index.php/downloads/doc_download/2-samsung-1st-generation-interop-unlock. If you click Open when this has finshed downloading it will ask if you want to install. Click install and hopefully this will now install on your phone.
7) Once this has done, on your phone, go to dial a number and input "##634#" then on the next screen input " *#9908# ". This should bring up GPRS Manager , scroll down and it should say "Heathcliff73 Interop Unlock" click on this and click Save.
8) Reboot phone and You are now Interop Unlocked. Install Window root tools and what ever you want now.
If your 3G settings are messed up download and install this http://www.wp7roottools.com/index.php/downloads/doc_download/3-repair-3g-for-samsung
Enjoy
If this guide is already out there or has already been mentioned then sorry i havent come across it but i thought i would share my experience
Big Thanks to HeathCliff for his tools
I take no responsibilty in what might happen to your phone.

[XAP's] copy/backup your favorite app

Hi there
here is an example how you can easy backup your favorite apps to your pc
Be sure your Samsung ativ S is fully unlocked and full filesystem access.
1: install your favorite app from the store
for this example we use the trail version of AppoinTile ( so i do NOTHING illegal !!! )
2: connect your fuly unlocked samsung ativ s to your pc
3: then goto your favorite app directory (in this test the trail version of AppoinTile)
This PC\Samsung ATIV S\Phone\Data\programs\{DDE4E2AC-9EA5-4B05-8BBD-CB7867B01D9C}\Install
3: copy all the content to a map on your pc (in this test case 25 files)
4: go on your pc to that new created directory and REMOVE the file WMAppPRHeader.xml
5: now select all files and ZIP the files with winrar of 7zip
6: now rename the file .zip to .xap and you have now backupped your favorite app.
i hope you can use it to backup your favorite apps.
good luck with it
Michael

I wouldn't count on that . Most apps do have code to check whether the production version of their app has a valid PlayReady header file and will cease to function otherwise.
Personally I succeed to backup/restore the trail version of Appointile by removing the WMAppPRHeader.xml AND MDILFileList.xml if not I've got an “Error-deployment optimization failed with error “unable to read input file”...”
But I don't succeed with others apps (like oneshot) I've always “Error optimization failed due to an invalid assambly. Rebuild your source projects and try again”.
Indeed apps must have a code to check.
Did the path changed after GDR3 update???
this will also make it "not-a-trial" anymore, since you de-associated the xap with the license
How do you get the data folder to show up on PC please?
First your Ativ S needs to be unlocked. Then you need to activate Full USB file system access.
You can do this easily with WPH Tweaks or SamWP8 Tools.
Then just connect it via USB to your PC.
Is possible install your files .xap in my phone or your files .xap is only for your phone?
Thanks.

The extracted xap's should work on other phones to.
I don't have this path: This PC\Samsung ATIV S\Phone\Data\programs
I get This PC\Samsung ATIV S\Phone\Data\ProgramData and Test and Users

Try with SamWP8 Tools by -W_O_L_F-
In "TWEAKS", check 'Full FS Access', reset your device and plug it via USB to PC (still does not work); reset again. unplug it from PC and plug it, again. Wait a minute. Now it should work well
@lomax50: Have you managed to get that working on GDR3? If so. please give *exact* steps to reproduce. Start from as "normal" a state as you reasonably can (full access turned off, limited MTP access working over USB), and go through the full steps. If you disconnect the phone, note it. If you reboot without logging in, note it. If you bring the phone out of sleep before plugging it in, note it. If you turn the phone on before plugging it in, note it. If you log in (unlock phone), note it. I've tried many times and cannot get this working on GDR3. There is no *clear* reason why it shouldn't work, either, although the whole thing was pretty rickety before too.
It's working for me now on GDR3....
I don't have to restart to get it working, the only thing i have to do is to
uninstall the Ativ S from the Windows Device Manager and it will show up as "MTP-USB-Device"
I don't restart my PC it's working anyway
then just unplug the phone and replug it... wait a little bit and it should show up in the Windows Explorer.
Hope this also fixes it for you.

Pipo W4S: 8 " Dual Boot 64 GB

Has anyone tried the Pipo W4S? I've been wanting to try one of these dual boot tablets, but I personally wouldn't want to touch one unless it's got at least 64GB of storage otherwise the two OS's will just take up too much of the 32GB space. I suppose I could get the Teclast x98 Air 3G, but for 64GB it's pretty expensive compared with this.
It looks like it may be a spiritual successor to the Pipo W3, just updated with more storage and dual boot.
Yes i got one, nice tablet over all. But space distribution is not ok. For android 4.4.4 - 8gb, ~4.7gb free. Rest is for windows ~46gb free.
I have managed to resize android and windows partitions. Android now have 37gb, rest is for windows. Also android on this tablet comes without google services, so you wont have play store and all google apps. In the end managet to install them by hands to system partition only after i got root on it.
Hi, I’ve just bought this tablet. Could you coach me how I can root it and install Google Play? Thanks.
