installing WP SDK7.1 - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

HTC SYnc Windows 2003 Drivers

Greets all,
Mod, Sorry if this is in the wrong place, please move if need be, I did a search cause I was having trouble installed the drivers for the HTC Sync for the android, and since I was able to manage to get it installed, I thought if anyone else wasnt able to or if it wasnt found yet, I got it working for the HD2 "Motoman234 EVO Carbon Remix" Android.
Now it shouldnt matter and should work on all Androids but had to throw that in there just in case.
This is for Windows 2003 server (Instructions), but should work on other OS's:
1) Download the newest HTC Sync: 3.0.5481.
2) Run the installer, it will load many things as a requirement.
3) 2 Installer will fail: Windows Media Runtime 11 & USB Drivers. On both it will ask you if you want to continue to install, say yes.
4)Once installed, connect your phone, Windows will locate it and say new hardware found "ADB" Do not allow windows to search for the driverss, it wont find them, instead download the file from my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9719661&postcount=2
5)Unzip the folder, and make windows look in that folder, it might ask you if you should install it, say yes, once installed, your HTC Sync is fully functional to sync whatever you want.
Hope this helps anyone having trouble with Windows 2003, or any other version. And if this was solved already, my apologies, just trying to help.
I've been looking for 2003 drivers ever since I got my HTC Desire back in March. Will give this a go later and see how I get on.
I can confirm that the above procedure works fine. Many thanks
thanks you very much
good, I try and success!
good! I try and success. thanks a lot!
My pleasure, glad to be of help
You are amaizing,,,,, thank you very much... You saved me from installing new o/s
thank you once again

[Q] sdk tools for xp

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!

[Root Question] Windows 8

So, A few months ago I downloaded and installed the developers preview of windows 8. I liked it a lot and backed up my windows 7 hd, wiped and fully installed windows 8.
Well, I bought the HTC One S yesterday. Amazing phone.
My problem, I can't root my phone because while installing the htc drivers it comes up with "~ doesn't recognize this OS" or something like that. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom
Maybe you should revert back to windows 7 then if the drivers wont install, Its pretty much impossible to anything without drivers

I figured that was the easiest solution HOWEVER I really dont want to spend 3 hours of work (Backup windows 8, delete, repart, load and install windows 7, root phone, delete, repart, load and install windows 8) for something that takes less than half an hour to do.
If anyone has any nice work arounds i'd really, really appreciate it!
What about installing some kind of virtual machine and Win7 or even XP on it?
can't you find any kind of driver that will install on WIN8?

I would try installing the Windows XP mode (virtual machine) if Windows 8 lets you, as mentioned above.. or perhaps download TinyXP and install as dual boot. maybe even a live install to a bootable usb drive.. although I've never been able to get that method to work well.
Or! I'll sell you my HP TC1100 already set up for HTC & Samsung phone modding!

[Q] Can't install Kies.

Hello!
I have a problem with Kies, I've searched around the site but couldn't an answer.
The thing is, I download Kies from the samsung site, and when I open the .exe, I see a green bar and after that it disappears and the installer never opens.
I have Windows XP x64 bit.
Thanks!
do you have a download manager?
It's possibly the download didn't complete properly or is corrupt in some way. I would download again using a download manager (downthemall) is a popular firefox add-on
Failing that try obtaining the installer from a different site, and/or possibly try a different version
Edit: windows XP x64 is a pretty bad version of windows to be on (its not really 64bit) I would suggest upgrading your operating system at some stage

I just installed downthemall and downloaded Kies again, but the same thing happened. The installer won't open.
I've already tried downloading the installer from a different site but the same thing happened.
I have no idea what's the issue here.
Yeah I was planning to update it to windows 7 but I don't know when, I don't like much the way it looks
There are a lot of program compatibility issues with windows xp 64, I would say install on any other machine and it will work
just because its 63 1/2 bit doesnt mean you needs another computer, as i have win xp (almost) (64BiT) as well and ,win 7 on my laptop and regular win xp 32.5 bit and none WORK WITH KIES! ITS SAMSUNG JUST FACE THE TRUTH AND DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A NEW OS JUST TO BE VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED, if their are any compatibility issues they are due to programs not being "MADE" compatible with it. besides i would rather be the one compatible with my computer then my apps

I also have the same problem. Windows 7, x64.
Has anyone found a solution?
Sorry for bringing this thread back to life, but I have a similar problem with KIES, only mine says that my pc is not connected to the internet!!!! OF course it doesn't take into account that I'm posting this as we speak.... Of all the problems an installation could face, internet connection is the one that messes with it?!
Does anyone have a solution?
i tried some months ago to install kies drivers and in my win7 64bit i don't have any problems
but i tried kies programs only first time, then i deleted it.
some days ago i get cyanogenmod to delete jellymod that have a lot of problems, also via usb ( i can't get files to my computer that appear a pop up of windows that says my devices is going off... too strange
anyway i nned to try now with cyano, if i have the same pop up, i guess is a usb cable, or another problem that i need to find and resolve...

Hey, and you checked the kies is compatible with windows xp 64 bit? With Windows 7 is definitely the xp but it is better to check.

[Q] Cyanogenmod Windows Installer don't work fine

I installed the Cyanogenmod Windows tool under Win7 and Win8.1. Installation will proceed and there comes a message that the program can now be used. But I find nowhere in the system a bit to start it.
In CCleaner, it is listed, also in the Control Panel under Programs and Features. The Start menu is not available and also in the installation directories, I find nothing. I also get no result when searching for 'cm installer'.
I have tried this on two different computers. Once with Win7 b4bit VS, and once Win8.1 64bit VS .. In both cases the same result.
Can anyone help me?
Tanks in advance,
Dag
