[Q] Getting Apps on the PC

Hey!
I want to make my own Icons for some apps that I've got on my phone and I wanted to know if and how I can get those Apps from my phone to my PC. Because when I don't have the .XAP's on my PC, I can't change the Icons. And second: How can I open XAP's with Visual Studio 2010 for Windows Phone (because I need to change the Icon it's using)?
Thanks for your answers!
use a xap downloader, such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894502
then rename the .xap to .zip, modify the icon, and rename it to .xap. Then deploy it to your phone.
And if I want to change the Icon of an App that costs sth. and that is on my phone?

I tried this..but I could never get the app to deploy once I change the icon.
I tested this with Registry Editor. I renamed the .xap file to .zip and extracted it. I changed the images in applicationIcon.png and background.png and then saved them with the same names. I then zipped and renamed back to .xap but it won't deploy. Toms Xap installer says "make sure the phone is unlocked and zune launched". But i can deploy the original .xap even after that error message but never the one I changed.
I tired winzip, winrar and freearc.

Sensation's Email Client

Hello all,
I have a problem with the sensation's email client. For example I cannot download(save) any attachment. I can open it but cannot save it. Is there any option or should I have to wait for an update
Dont tell me to open the file and then save it please
There's no direct way, but the attachments are automatically saved to the folder downloads on your SD card. Yuu can use a file manager to move them from there, or simply access them from there. I don't know your goal.
ok let me tell you that way...
Today I recieved an email from my boss (excel attachment zipped by rar)
The rar cannot be opened by any software. You can open it unless its saved.
I downloaded the file from the browser and I could open it but its a long process...
Any advice ?

Install app from zip file

We know how to install or deploy xap files..but can someone tell me how to deploy .zip file to windows phone devices?
What do you mean, "deploy zip file"? XAP files are ZIP archives; if it's a WP7 app with the wrong extension, just rename the file. If it's a ZIP archive containing a XAP file, extraft the XAP and deploy as normal. If it's something else... I can't help you unless you tell me more.
by deploying i meant the way we deploy .xap files with windows phone dev tools.I tried as you said,to rename the extension of the .zip to .xap.But then application deployment tool is showing error message cant deploy .xap file.
when i extract the contents are..a content folder..couple of language folder,a AppManifest.xaml file,WMAppManifest.xml and couple of .dlls.What should i do now?
btw thank you for quick response :laugh:
The files you name indicate that it is indeed a regular XAP file which you have there. You don't need to extract the contents.
What error does the tool give you? You can't deploy all XAPs on all unlock levels - for instance deploying a XAP with InterOp services capabilities would result in an error (more info here).
P.S.: Downloading a XAP file with IE will somehow result in the file being renamed to ZIP. I suspect a MIME issue or similar. Renaming these downloaded ZIP's extensions back to XAP makes them deploy fine.
Is it a homebrew app downloaded from XDA-Devs or a similar site, or is it a Marketplace app? The latter cannot be sideloaded with standard tools, by design.

It can't be an encrypted XAP; if it was, he couldn't extract the contents since PlayReady encrypts the entire ZIP archive and the XAP doesn't contain a valid ZIP hence.
I doubt he got an older marketplace XAP renamed with a ZIP extension though, especially due to the fact that IE downloads attached XAPs from here exactly in that manner.
Sometimes people post Marketplace XAPs for download from other sites, including here; that was just a guess.

Hey Guys,I'm exporting attendance report from Chinese fingerprint machine in XLS format
I can't find an app that will open that file,microfoft office says can't open file,I tried many other excel apps ,it says bad file ,can't open,other say file is corrupted.
However I can open the file on my laptop in Microsoft excel ,but there is a warning message that I must accept ,before the file will open,something about that file came from unauthorized device.
Can you suggest me what app I can use on my Android phone to view the file ?so I don't have to carry my laptop with me?
Use AndroXLS app - it's free of charge.
AndroXLS can open the file, but all data messed up
