[Q] Deploying Windows Phone XAPs with XapDeploy.exe on Windows 8 Developer Preview - Windows 8 General

I was unsure whether or not this post belonged in the Windows Phone forum, or the Windows 8. However, it just makes sense to me to put it here, so I did.
I downloaded and installed the Windows Phone SDK 7.1 Release Candidate (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=27153) because I have a (mango beta, ISV build 7712) Samsung Focus that has been developer-unlocked (InterOp-Unlock), and frequently sideload apps to it. Did it many many time in Windows 7 with no problems whatsoever. When the Developer Preview came out, I installed it on the same machine which I used to sideload apps from. I also installed the regular things, like Zune software (4.8). Now, whenever I open XapDeploy.exe (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v7.1\Tools\XAP Deployment) , I get this error message:
Exception from HRESULT: 0x89721800
I have tried to work my Bing magic to no avail. I have tried many of the solutions found on forums online to fix this, but to no avail. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, and repaired the Windows Phone SDK 7.1 Release Candidate with no fruition. Does this work in Windows 8 at all? If yes, then how can I fix my problem. If no, are there other XAP deployers that *do* work in Windows 8? Please help!!

Same error... I've to switch to Windows 7 to deploy .xap.
Sent from my Samsung Omnia 7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

Try to use XAPDeployX-V0.9
you can find on the internet
That's great work!!

Yeah, that one didn't work either. Funnily enough, I got the same error, just in a different message.
"Error: Unable to start. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x89721800)"
Anyone??? Please??
That was using XAPDeployX by the way. I have tried a couple of other ones, but they didn't work. Does anyone have a clue???

I've tried about 4 different ones. I think its because they all rely on the SDK to be working. So I'm now partitioning my drive and getting XP on here so I don't have to use my old computer. Lol.

MultiXapInstall v1.1 work for me

I tried that too, and when I tried to deploy, it just crashed and quit with no error. Anyone have ANYTHING???

wmdc on windows 7

Has anyone found a way to install wmdc on windows 7? I just can't do it.. the cd that came with my td2 fails at install.. and the downloaded version, well, nothing ever happens I've even tried running as admin, compatibility with vista, and don't even have my AV nor UAC enabled.
why don't you just download the latest version from Microsoft? I run Win7 and didn't experience any trouble.

i'm guessing because he is unable to pass genuine validation...some people cant/wont buy windows...
Theoretically speaking if he's running a non genuine Windows 7 I'm pretty sure he activated it with one of dozens of existing tricks (otherwise why installing it, for a month usage?). He would then pass validation easily.
Downloading the one from Microsoft worked perfectly for me
Simply connect TD2 to your PC and run windows update.

What Antivirus are you using? Disable it! Then make sure Windows Mobile device Center (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=4F68EB56-7825-43B2-AC89-2030ED98ED95) is installed on your computer and try again.

XAPs wont deploy on new laptop

Ive tried to figure this out myself for days now. I broke my laptop last week which was working fine deploying xaps, windows phone device manager working fine. etc, etc.
So I finally got a replacement laptop. Fresh install of the exact same windows 7 x86. Installed latest zune, Windows Phone Developer Tools 7.1, Windows Phone Device Manager, .NET 4.0, WP7MarketplacePC.
So now Windows Phone Device Manager wont open at all. No error messages just wont open. Which isnt a big deal.
Main problem is none of my xaps will install. Ive tried the one that comes with the marketplace program, Tom's xap isntaller and a few others. All error out. wp7deploy which is the one I normally used errors while its analyzing.
Ive tried different roms, Including ones I know worked with my other laptop.
This is really bothering me like crazy since my laptop broke after I flashed a new wp7 rom but before I deployed any of my xaps.
I must be missing something but WTF is it. ahhhh
Thanks
Seems like quite a few users do face problems with WPDM on Windows 7 - on any version, that is. Haven´t seen any solution for this, unfortunately.
Maybe deleting and re-installing WPDM will help, don´t know...
Thanks...
Got it working finally...
uninstalled WPDevTools 7.1.
Installed WPDev Tools 7.0 with october update.
Uninstalled WPDM.
Then synced with zune and all is good...
Thanks again. Problem might have been with the 7.1 WPDevTools since it was in beta. After I get all the xaps deployed while its working Im gonna reinstall WPDM and see if that works again.

Unable to install xap files!

I have recently formatted my laptop and re-installed everything from scratch. I now am unable to install xap files to my phone. every error i get seems to be something related to the connection or not detecting the phone. I have tried Toms xap installer and winco wxap assistant and neither work. I have zune 4.8 installed, as well as the windows phone 7 sdk and the windows phone 7 developer tools. I have the HTC HD2 running xboxmod/yuki mango rom, which has been updated to wp7.1. zune detects the phone and i am able to sync through zune, so i know that the device is installed and working correctly. I am thinking there may be an error in my install of either the wp7 sdk or the wp7 dev tools, but i am not sure how to check this.
The laptop has been updated from 2gb ram to 4gb, so i now have windows 7 professional 64 bit (i did have windows 7 pro 32bit before). hopefully one of the good people on xda will know how to fix this problem!

[HOW TO] KFHD 7 MTP Driver Problem Windows 7 N Version

Hey there,
I found a solution for the MTP-Driver issue under Windows 7 N Edition.
A few days ago I bought a new SSD Drive for my Desktop.
So i decided to install a fully new Windows on it, cause my windows 7 x64 was about 4 years in use now and doesnt worked reliable.
I decided to give Windows 7 N Version a try, cause it comes without some futures i thought i would not need.
ATM I use this KF First Aide with my KFHD 7
Installation of the ADB Driver worked without a problem, but i still got the yellow triangle on MTP Driver.
Tried then to install the driver manually using windows update. it didnt find a driver for MTP.
Tried to install the MTP device manualy selecting MTP Device in the "all devices" list (Standard MTP Device).
But this didnt work either.
After hours of searching i found a thread that led me to this :
As promised by Microsoft the N Version comes WITHOUT the Windows Media Player.
But as it seams the Windows Media Player contains the MTP Driver.
For god sake microsoft provides a pack to install it manually Media Feature Pack für Windows 7 N
This works of course only with original Windows as u have to pass a Genuine Verification to download it.
After installing the pack. The windows update found 2 other updates. i got them too and restarted my system. Now the triangle is gone. And my KFHD is recognised as Portable Device and everything works fine.
Dunno weather it will work with other Windows 7 Versions.

This is just ridiculous..
I have Windows 8.1 N Pro installed and can't use either, because it is missing the MTP driver. The fact that i have to install the Media Feature Pack to use a fundamental feature of my PC is just F***** UP! It is just Microsoft's way of giving the finger to the EU, and it makes the N-version completely useless.
But i refuse to install Windows Media Player and all that other crap just to use my Nexus 5 with my new laptop. If i have to write to the EU to try and make them force Microsoft to make the driver available as a standalone install, i will. This is just principally wrong of Microsoft, but really not surprising.
If people would just boycot Microsoft they might learn. But that will never happen, unfortunately..
