How do I install apps with no SD card?

I've not installed anything on the phone before.
I tried to copy a cab file to the SD card but I've got problems as the phone thinks there is no SD card present.
Can I copy the cab file to the phone's memory? I cannot see the phones memory through explorer on my PC though do I need some special software?
Srry if this is a stupid question I did search but found nothing

Try installing MS ActiveSync. Connect the HD2 to the PC using the usb cable. Once installed, you will be able to see the HD2's files in Windows Explorer. Just copy the cab file to a folder. Disconnect the phone and launch the cab file from the phone's file manager.
Cheers

Microsoft says Active Synch will only work with XP SP2 and earlier I have XP SP3.
Is there anything else I can use?
What does everybody else do - do you not install anything via PC to the phone?

For Vista or Windows 7 the used tool is called Microsoft Mobile Device Center (MSDC). For Windows XP (even SP3) active sync has to be used. Did you try it to install? I´m sure that it will work.
To install applications at your mobile device do the following steps:
a) connect it via active sync
b) using your PC´s Explorer to copy the cab-file containing your application to your mobile device and remember the place you copied it
c) disconnect your mobile device
d) using your mobile device´s go to the directory you copied the cab-file and start it
This way your application will be installed
But I´m sure you would have found the answer without asking here. Mr. Google knows it already

XP SP3 here, ActiveSync works with no problems.
As to the installing files to device - you may run out of memory soon, so I'd suggest buying even the smallest card (although preferably min 2GB, if you intend to toy with SD Android at some time)

Run Windows XP on HTC Explorer

Hello ,
I got my HTC Explorer A310e last week and I wonder if I can run Windows XP on it .
I bought it from Amazon where :
Recommended Windows System Requirements
* Windows® 7, Windows Vista®, or Windows® XP
* HTC Sync
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I search on forum and on google but not found .
Thanks .

You mean the actual device itself? No. It's possible, but to my knowledge, no-one has created software for the HTC Explorer to do so, let alone all the other types Android devices.
You can try this, No guarantees this'll work though.
When they say "Recommended Windows System Requirements", they mean your desktop PC should have these specifications as in your desktop PC should run Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 as it's operating system.

Hey , thanks for your reply .
I wanted to replace Android with Windows XP .
I install Windows 95 with Bochs but had some graphic error that's why I tried to install as main OS .
Other Info :
I remove HTC sense this morning to speed up my phone , now I'm going to try to run XP with Bochs .

Thanks again .

Is it really working in HTC

Bochs with Windows XP ?

[Q] Windows Phone 7 on Windows 8

Hi,
I've recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 8. On Windows 7 I had Zune, Dev Tools, Xap Deployer, etc to connect to my phone (Omnia 7.5 dev/interop unlocked). How can I do the same on Windows 8. Couldn't find Zune for Windows 8.
Tried searching the forums but searching for "windows 8" just gives results for Windows 7.8.
Any help is much appreciated.

Just go to the xbox music site and download zune again. And go to the apphub site and download the windows phone tools again.
Everything you had on windows 7 will run on windows 8. I just slapped Win 8 on my laptop and just finished installing the dev kit and zune. Took me about an hour to do.

I read somewhere that Zune Software is not compatible with W8. I tried it also on W8 CP without any luck. I guess I should try on the released version now. Downloading...
Btw, what version of dev tools did you use? Can you post a link?

Naw, the Zune software is fully compatible with W8. I just finished importing my music library from my phone to my laptop.
Anyway, I downloaded this ...
https://www.dreamspark.com/Student/Windows-Phone-7-App-Development.aspx
Not really sure what version it is. 7.1 or 7.2 or something?

Zune works perfectly on Windows 8.
For the developer tools I think you should use these:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35471#overview
"The Windows Phone Software Development Kit (SDK) 8.0 provides you with the tools that you need to develop apps and games for Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 7.5."

Thanks guys. Zune worked. Installing latest dev tools from jjuki's link.

Install Windows Media Player 11 first, reboot and you should have MTP working, if not then just install SP3.
