[Q]Dropbox Windows version Trojan infected? - General Questions and Answers

Hello!
I installed Dropbox on my Android phone and also installed Dropbox for Windows. After some time I got a warning from Microsoft Security Essentials which linked to the following website:
microsoft.com/security/portal/Threat/Encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?name=Trojan%3aWin32%2fJpgiframe.A&threatid=2147626408[/url]
It says there is a Win32/Jpgiframe.A trojan in the appcache folder of Dropbox.
Does anyone has problems with this?

[Q] Windows Phone Device Manager Fails to Show

I have installed .NET Framework 4 full version, then installed Windows Phone Device Manager on Windows 7 64bit using Standard User Account, however it fails to show in Program Files, it only shows in "Uninstall a Program". What am I missing?
Cheers
Writing to Program Files requires admin privileges (unless you changed the permissions on that folder). Therefore, it may have installed to a user-writable location instead.
Alternatively, WPDM is not a 64-bit app. Did you check in "Program Files (x86)"? That's probably where it would install by default.
I installed with Admin Privileges, and checked the x86 folder, nothing there.
Cheers
EDIT: I found where it is hiding: C:\Windows\WPDeviceManager
So now it errors when starting: "Windows phone SDK 7.1 is required."
I have a HTC HD7 with the latest Windows installed: 7.10.8107.79
The phone is plugged in via a USB cable.
Suggestions please
EDIT: Found it through Google.

The Solution my friend is to buy them from the market place
This is the only solution, firstly because this is XDA developers and piracy isn't tolerated
Secondly, MS encrypted the marketplace which stopped the use of these programs for any legitimate or illegitimate reasons. So, Buy them.
If you have brought them an you are wanting a backup of the XAP then this is still possible, XAPs can be made from installed apps.
decrypted official programs from marketplace

yup, this should let you backup installed apps as XAPs allowing you to install them In one go later, it also seems to backup the data sections of these apps too.
Ive yet to play with this but it seems like a good idea, I was helping a chap months ago with something like this but was PC based. Its very handy but you have to wonder if it wouldn't be better just to make a complete zune backup...
Thanks for your reply, Program Manager, all backups save score games ? ^^
If yes you are the best !

[Q] Can somebody download the latest Whatsapp XAP?

Hello everyone,
I'm currently documenting Whatsapp, it's protocols, how it works etc.. Looking at the source code helps a lot
I currently have the latest Android APK (from Whatsapp.com) and Whatsapp version 2.8.2 XAP (Windows Phone).
I'd like to decompile the latest the XAP's since the protocol and registration methods changed in version 2.8.7. I know the Java source code from the APK is very similar, however I'd rather have the XAP, since that's C#.
I do not have a Windows Phone so I can't download the latest version from the Windows Phone Market place. Would somebody with a Windows Phone please be so kind to download the latest Whatsapp XAP from the Windows Phone market place and share it?
Of course I'll share the documentation I write up on XDA
Thanks in advance,

Error 0xFFFFFE70 While logging into Microsoft Account

Hi. I bought HTC One M8 for Windows mobile (T-Mobile US version) running WP 8.1 OS few days ago. Whenever I try to log into Microsoft account I get error code 0xFFFFFE70 saying 'We weren't able to activate your phone' with an advice to contact Microsoft support regarding error.
I have searched on-line for this error and have tried everything advised including correcting system date/time settings, soft/hard reset of phone, even reformatting the stock firmware with WDRT (Windows Device Recovery Tool) and also HTC custom tool. Nothing seems to resolve this error so far. Due to this I am unable to use windows store to download apps or log into my one drive on phone etc as each one of these requires Microsoft account login.
I was thinking maybe anyone can help me by providing me with latest windows 10 preview RUU for HTC M8 for windows (T-Mobile). If you installed it on your M8 via WDRT (Windows Device Recovery Tool) then you can copy it from C:\ProgramData\HTC\Packages\Products (default directory for WDRT). Maybe Windows 10 preview would solve my problem.

I have finally managed to resolve the issue via manually pushing update cabs (first 14203-14219 and then 14219-10586.11) via 'iutool' as described here.
In this case as I was unable to install and run Windows Insider app via MS Store or Sideload it (as it required MS account login) I went straight to pushing cabs via iutool without any prior modification via Windows Insider app as mentioned in thread and it worked. After that mobile got updated to 10585.164 build and now its working perfectly.
Hi Surgeon. I am having the same issue with the same variant of this phone. I'm pretty sure I get the jist of how to use the uitool, but I think I'm missing the step about using the Insider app to start the process as it's not installed on this phone. I have a few questions about how you did this:
1 - How did you sideload/install the Microsoft Insider app without being able to log into a Microsoft account?
2 - Coming from 8.10.14203.306, would I just install the 2 files ( 14203-14219 and then 14219-10586.11)?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

No need to install Insider app. Just run following commands (Modify depending on your system locations) via Command Prompt in Admin mode (Windows key + X > Command Prompt (Admin) )
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Phone Kits\8.1\Tools\bin\i386\
to check whether device connected or not
iutool -l
to transfer cabs (located in c:\cabs)
iutool -v -p c:\cabs
(Install cabs in 2 steps. First from 14203-14219 and let phone update complete. Then delete these cabs from c:\cabs and paste 14219-10586.11 cabs in c:\cabs and repeat same steps and let the phone update.)
Thanks a ton! I just got home from work and I'll try this in a bit.
Thanks for taking the time to reply!
I am able to transfer the files and the phone attempts to install, but then throws out an error saying it is unable to open the update.

When I downloaded the file from the link on the iutool page you referenced, it downloads as a .txt file. Does it matter if I'm sending that file as a .txt to the phone or does it have to be converted to a .cab?

Brother these text files contain download links for cab files. Open these links one by one or simply copy and download all together via free download manager (portable edition here)
Cab files downloaded from both text file links are about cumulatively 788mb (51 cab files of about 52.8 mb for 14203 to 14219 and then 47 cab files of about 735mb for 14219 to 10586.11 update.)
Thanks again for the help and clarification. I do though have another question about installing the .cabs. After the first 8 or so cabs I installed, the OS is updated to 14219.341. Am I able to skip the rest of the cabs in link 1 and start installing cabs from link 2? I ask because when I install the 13th cab from link 1, the phone reboots but instead of the white HTC Not For Resale screen, I get a black backlit screen and unable to even shut the phone down with the power button. I've had to reset it using RUU and start over from scratch.
Edit 5/7/2016: No need for reply. I was making this harder than it actually was. Once I stopped being dumb about it, I managed to get the phone fully updated and it's running perfectly now in Windows 10. Thanks for all your help in pointing me towards the solution.
