[Q] sdk tools for xp - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there a way to install the sdk phone tools on xp? I have the 6.1v and visual studios 2010. But when i try to install it says i have to have win7 or vista, and i cant put win7 on machine cause it only has 128m ram. I have a patch file that is suppose to let ya install but haven figured out how to yet.

There are ways to get it installed but the emulator requires Directx 10 so that's not going to work. Without the emulator all you can do is write and compile code but not test to see if it works or not. Not very useful.
XP barely runs on 128mb of RAM so I imagine Visual Studio would be absolutely miserable to use if usable at all.

If you wanna develop for WP7 I guess its safe to say it time for an upgrade.

i would say so as well. even a netbook has more capabilities than that

Im not much of a developer in some ways so as for now all im wanting to do is use the toms installer or the reg sdk deployment tool witch i have but when i try to launch program i get this error:
Could not load file 'Microsoft Smart Device.Connectivity,10.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its
dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Then when i try to install the Microsoft XNA Game Studio 4.0 windows phone from the WPDT_RTM_en_iso
i get this error: Microsoft xna game studio4.0 phone ex require visual 2010 or WPDT. install the required app and then relaunch setup. " witch i have the visual studio 2010 installed"
and i have a win7 netbook but have managed to have a kid that spilled tea on it so am trying to figure out the way to do this untill
i can afford to get another netbook.
Thanks for the help and replies guys, very appriciated!!

Ok so I got the xna game studio 4 to install but still getting the phone device connectivity error, is there something I can download to get by this and use the deployment

guess no solution huh

i don't believe so. the way i did it was to use a virtual machine so i could get the phone emulator working on an xp machine (virtual machine has windows 7 on it). but you don't have enough ram for that. you need at least 1.5gb dedicated to the virtual machine alone.

You can try this solution here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9618980&postcount=81. I just couldn't get it to install still as I kept getting an error saying could not install the following component .NET Framework 4 Multi-Targeting Pack.

i finally found a iso file and downloaded it then opened up the baseline.dat file and edited it according to the patch settings and everything works just like it does on win7 netbook, just wanted to see if it was possible and it is!
Thanks for the replies.

Could you share that info? Ive been dying to get SDK tools on my XP... Thanks

Can you please share that? I have 4 XP computers at home and neither of them can run it. It would be great as I need the SDK to run Chevron unlocker! Thanks!

Link pleaseee
I so desperately need this also

for those that want the tools on windows xp, here you go: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2010/05/02/10005980.aspx

I finally got it to install on XP!
Here's what I did,
Download the .iso file (it's at the bottom of the page) :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=04704acf-a63a-4f97-952c-8b51b34b00ce
After, make a new folder on your desktop and extract the ".iso" file into the folder.
Next, I grabbed the ".zip" file from here, : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9618980&postcount=81
Take the baseline.dat from the .zip file and replace it in the one with the extracted .iso files. Then just run setup.exe from the file. It should work! But make sure you have about 3 gb free from your hard drive. And emulator doesn't work, but I'm sure its fine if your not a developer.
Remember to hit the thanks button if it worked for you!

SDK Tools

okay its my fault for accidentally deleting it but I need the sdk tools. i redownloaded it but instead of a sdk folder there is just a sdk doc file. i read it and downloaded everything through the sdk manager and the tools are still not there. im lost and i looked through the guides and didnt see anything there. so what do I do now?
http://http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Then run the Setup exe
im on a mac...guess i should have said that first but i found it...its just not in the sdk directory anymore...and thats wut i was looking for specifically...the sdk tools now ~/Android/tools
duh...simple answer...just overlooked it trying to get ready for work...lol

Android Kitchen thread CLOSED

I just went to the android kitchen thread to see if there have been any updates to accommodate java 7 and the dev has closed the thread
Any one know how to get the kitchen to recognize java 7, it still is looking for java in the jre6 folder and that isn't there anymore. I have even done a fresh install of cygwin after installing java 7 and it still didn't automatically recognize the new version.
Hopefully dsixda doesn't take too long a break but I am sure it is well deserved, it is a priceless tool.
You can have more than one version of java installed on your system you know. Java 7 isn't going to just magically improve anything for you really unless you're a developer.
True but didn't know if it was an fairly easy change to a script or something to get it to check/recognize the new location. Before it would let me get to the "building a rom from working folder" portion before it would give me a message about java, now it won't even start the kitchen saying it can't find java version.
I wouldn't consider myself a dev by any means but I build roms for my own use and to just try different things out to see how things work/change things, basically to learn what does what.
Between this issue and fact that I can't get pc to recognize my phone as a storage device anymore...I am lost.
Symlink java7 to the old location for java6.

Just to add to what adrynalyne said (since it's the easiest way), that would be using the "ln" command on linux/unix/cygwin or mklink on windows.
Thanks for idea, tried mklink but in process realized I had x86 version of java6 and x64 of java7. So I tried just installing x86 version of java7 and opened up kitchen and was able to create output .zip from my current working folder
Now if I could just get pc to recognize phone properly... then maybe I think I will avoid updates of software for awhile.

installing WP SDK7.1

hi! i always fail to install SDK7.1 on my laptop..what could be wrong? i have Win7 ultimate 32 bit, ram and disk space are more than sufficient, i did not install visual studio 2010. but when i install WP SDK7.1, i always get an error... please help.. what are the real requirements of WP SDK7.1?
iamwin, i never had problem, but here is the official link from microsoft:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=27570
but what i guess is that you should install first Windows Phone Developer Tools:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=13890
and then SDK.
hope it helps.
Best regards.
thanks!! i'll try to install the WPDT.
EDIT: i've successfully installed WPDT, now im able to deploy xap files without uploading them in the internet. currently im installing my freshly downloaded WPSDK7.1 iso. I hope this will work flawlessly too
i have managed to install SDK7.1! thanks for the help

vitrualBox in Ubuntu 12.04

hey guys im trying to use virtualBox on my Ubuntu machine. Im trying to run windows 7. Got it all set up and loaded with no problems. Heres where I cant get passed.
Im trying to get VB to utilize the entire screen space. Ive read through all the articles about installing the additions iso. I cant seem to find a good copy. Also I cant get Odin to recognize my phone either. I have USB set up in VB and can access the files on phone but cant get Odin to recognize it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can install guest additions from within VirtualBox. It shows up as a mounted CD drive. Open it, & run the appropriate script.
If your ultimate goal is to use Odin, though, I don't think it will work through VirtualBox. Maybe it's possible, but I think it needs direct access to the USB. You could just dual-boot Windows & do it directly.
Thanks for the info

thanx for the info dude. I guess i just assumed i could get it to work in a virtual machine. Could have swore Ive seen Adam doing it...mind u he is MUCH MUCH more educated than me. That is my goal. I have a linux machine and wanna use odin to flash Adams Odin root file for the Note 2. No problem running his CASUAL program, but need to root it first and as far as I can tell it needs to be done in Windows. I guess I can always turn a spare computer back into a windows machine...just didnt wanna have to go through the headache,.
Well, you can boot off a Ubuntu install disk (or make a GParted Live USB), then use gparted to resize your Ubuntu. Set a few GB aside for a new partition, then install Windows there, instead of installing Windows in the VM. It ends up being the same thing, just a few more steps to get it running.
Just make sure you back up your grub config and mbr. I don't think Windows would make your Ubuntu install vanish, but ya never know...

Oh, yeah. The default command to switch to fullscreen mode is Host+F, where the default Host key is Right Ctrl (so, RightCtrl+F).

Win86emu 0.6 for Windows RT 8.1 working

Hi,
I have uploaded a working version of Win86emu 0.6 ready for working in Windows RT 8.1 with jailbreak: http://www45.zippyshare.com/v/iMffGf8P/file.html
Instructions:
1. Extract all files to c:\ (it will create a x86node folder)
2. Execute c:\x86node\install\x86node.reg
3. Run c:\x86node\windows\postinstall.exe
4. For Windows 8.1, copy c:\x86node\Install\Windows 8.1\x86node\Windows\SystemNT\ntdll.nt.dll to c:\x86node\Windows\SystemNT\ntdll.nt.dll and override the current dll.
After this, you can run c:\x86node\windows\launcher.exe and choose a x86 exe to run (e.g. c:\x86node\windows\regedit.86.exe)
Edit: I forgot step 4
Attempting to run anything results with this error
The procedure entry point RtlConvertUiListToApiList could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\x86node\Windows\SystemNT\ntdll.nt.dll
This error comes up a few times after clicking through the application may actually run but wont function as intended.
Winamp 2.95 Installs, runs and plays Mp3's
CPU usage is around 13% idle 260MB ram usage​
VLC 0.7.2 installed, runs in a command line only, wont play anything.

Then, win86emu should be working ok. Not every app is supported. Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2259449 for compat suggestions
I know, but it would be nice if you could include msu.dll that's the main problem (if it's possible to include)
Is this still being based off of ReactOS?
Edit: yes it is, too bad we couldn't get mamaich back on board to continue their development of this.
[Removed]
The game.com emulator works perfectly on win86emu I don't know if I'm allowed to post it, but you can find the emulator on google with all of the roms and the instructions to use it have fun!

Thank you for this, it works surprisignly well.
Hello, I've downloaded the files and tried moving them around and have encountered a couple of issues that stop me from going forward.
1. I wasn't able to move all the System32 dll files. It said I didn't have permission.
2. After running the after install file I was told that the file ""Windows cannot verify he digital signature for this file" .
My boss wants to get Google Chrome on the Windows RT. I think I've seen in a video that a guy was able to get Chrome on his RT, but he didn't elaborate on the process.
Any and all replies are appreciated. Thank you
