[Q] Deployment issue

Hi i have been trying to deploy a xap that is 80mb size lately, but no matter what i do i kept getting the
"Error 0x8007274c" - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
If i deploy smaller sized xap (10mb 20mb) it works perfectly, but cant seem to deploy larger ones. And i have tried the official deployment tool, Tom XAP deployer, and XAP deploy X. All the same result
BTW, i have updated to NoDo, im guessing it has something to do with that....
Thank you all for helping!!~

Is there no solution?

In my trophy i had the same problem when i was in 7390 (nodo) verison of the rom...
After the 7392 update the problem is gone and i can deploy big xap files

colossus if you do further testing I'm sure you'll find out that this depends on the xap itself. 7392 was just security updates as far as I understand so there's no reason that this update should have magically fixed this problem. Test other xaps and report back if you can.

Hi m8..
I did make those test so far no big xap that i cant install....
I had the same problem with 7390 rom and i was under the impression that the problem was there after the 7392 update.
And i had a long discussion about this in another forum ..
After that i try to install 2-3 big games +100mb and the installed just fine ...
If there is a specific xap you want me to try please let me know ...(i send you a PM)

I have a XAP that installed fine before Nodo. It won't install now. It failed on 7.0.7390.0 and it also fail now that I have 7.0.7392.0. When the files are being installed they are written in this location:
\Application Data\Phone Tools\10.0\Install\{AppID Guid}\
The XAP I try to install is way over 100 mb. But when I look in that folder I see that after the failed install the XAP is always between 66 and 68 MB. I use my own WP7 Root Tools to look there. And in the new version I'm working on I can also copy and delete files and folders (this version will probably ready for release in a couple of days). So when I delete the complete folder with defective install and try it again it always has the same result. I tried all the appdeployers I know (MS App deployer, Tom's installer, WPDM, XAPDeployX), no difference. I also tried to copy the XAP to the phone first and place it in the Install folder. That works and the complete file is present. But when I try to deploy, it just gets overwritten and it fails again.
I also tried to disable Firewall and Antivirus temporary, but it didn't make any difference.
I'm on Omnia7 with JK1 firmware. OS 7.0.7392.0. I have the RTM version of Windows Phone Developer Tools. Would it possibly help if I upgrade to a newer version of the Windows Phone Developer Tools? With the release of NoDo there was also a new release of the Windows Phone Developer Tools. And there is a new beta version for Mango now. I think I'm going to try to install the Nodo version of the Windows Phone Developer Tools and see if that helps.

Windows Phone Device Manager for WP7
first move some content out of the xap
deploy
now use wp7devicemanager to copy the "moved content" into installation folder.
does currently not work with mango beta tools

SOLVED!!
Finally got it fixed. You need to install the January update of the Windows Phone Developer Tools (that's version 1.0.1, which is meant to go with the NoDo update on the phone).
You can download the updates HERE.
After I installed the updates I could immediately deploy large XAP's.

M8 this is not the dev tools ..ist an update/patch and the file name is VS10-KB2486994-x86.exe.
Try to install this once again., and then reboot your pc before you try

There's actually 2 updates on that page:
1. VS10-KB2486994-x86.exe = update for the VS-plugin. The page actually states that this is a fix for deploying packages over 64 MB.
2. Window Phone Developer Tools v1.0.1 (January update including Deployment Tool, Connection Tool, Emulator, etc).
I tried to install only the small Visual Studio fix first. But it didn't fix the deployment apps. I guess this only fixes the 64 MB package limit for when you deploy from within Visual Studio. After I installed the big update for Windows Phone Developer Tools v1.0.1 I could deploy big XAP's. In my case no reboot was necessary (I did close all deployments apps and Zune etc before I started the setup). Windows Phone Developer Tools 1.0 RTW must be installed first if you had not already.
Hope this helps!

Sorry I wrote dev tools, but I mean the patch.
I used the german dev tools and the german patch.
At this time, I uninstall the german dev tools complete try with the english version.

Ok. So you're saying you have the Mango beta tools installed and you're experiencing the deployment problem? That's weird. That probably means that the Nodo fixes in version 1.0.1 are in a branch. Or the mango tools are branched from the 1.0.0 version. Either way. The fix is not in the same branch as the Mango tools. That means that if you have Nodo on your phone, you should use the 1.0.0 version (RTW) of the tools and then apply the 1.0.1 fixes. But you shouldn't use the mango tools, or else you will still suffer from the deployment issue.
Ciao,
Heathcliff74

yes exactly
currently there is no public deployer working on mango beta tools exept the one that comes with the tools, but i cant deploy large xap's with it.

Ok, I give up.
I tried everything. It will not work.

Help with sync configuration

i just buy wp7 yesterday, i was no idea how to sync it to the pc.
i heard that you need zune to sync with it like itunes. i'm installed it once, but it cannot update and say 'connection error, restart software'.
so i reinstalled again, but stuck at 100%.
a lot in the internet say that their os was XP of vista, and no windows 7 (and i'm using w7).
please, share with me how things are working here. thanks

i was able to sync and I have windows 7.
-make sure ZUNE is up to date
-you may get better results using the USB cable that came with the phone
-if you have more than one, try them all.
-you may get better results using the USB ports on the back of the PC

Have ya configured your phone already, a Live account and all that jazz ?
I have Windows 7, so that is not your problem... make sure your Zune is workling properly and if needed download a new version and reinstall it. Syncing Zune and WP7 is a pretty straight forward thing.

i'm already did that, it's just now i am trying to "reinstall" zune because it cannot update my windows phone 7 (version with no copy-cut-paste)
my zune installer is "downloading update at 100%" and stuck, no solution on the internet. some say to go back to xp (LOL)
for sync-ing my wp is no problem because it is straight forward

Like I said, I have Windows 7 x64 and the system runs great and no problems with Zune.
In you Windows try and create a new use with admin rights and try and install Zune in that user area, or use System Restore to roll back to a few days back... telling you to format and reinstall Windows 7 should be a last resort.

What "update" are you trying to install?

nothing, i'm trying to install, but the installer say updating, maybe i got old version package.
new problem here: i'm already download new package for installation, and i stuck at this point "preparing you computer, installing the zune sofware", so i think i have to contact zune for this problem
update: i just got the solution form help forum, apparently he say "just hit spacebar", and it work, feel like slap the software to wake up.
but now the software doesn't installed properly, no shortcut in the desktop

How long have you had that current installation of you Windows 7 ?
It might be a problem with your OS and not Zune... like I said, create a new user with admin right and install from there, Restore System to an older date.
If all fails, might be time for a fresh Windows 7 install.

Accessories, System Tools and you should have System Restore there. Try and restore to an older point in time, see if that helps.
When all else fails... format c:

system restore didn't have any effect at all. format is the only option left, i give up on this software.
i just don't want to waste anymore time, i'll use wp7 connector for mac instead.
thank you very much for everyone here for spending time to answer me. operator may closed this post in peace.

can't install XAPs

hi..
i used to use MultiXapInstall to install XAPs but from two week ago.. i'm unable to install XAPs through MultiXapInstall (and the others xap installers )..
when i try to install a xap i get this error :
Code:
Connect() :: Class not registered
at first i get :" parameter is incorrect " error so i use some Registery Cleaner programs and after that i got this class not registered error..
What should i do?!
sry for my weak EN

any help?!

Reinstall the official SDK. One of the required components was probably removed or corrupted. I also tend to recommend against running any of those "registry cleaner"-type programs...
Just for the record, I assume the official XAP deploying tool isn't working right now either?

thank you for reply.. i reinstalled WPSDK but nothing changed. i still "get class not registered" error..
what should i do next?

There's apparently a leap day bug affecting Zune; it might be related? Try again tomorrow. If that doesn't work, the only thing I can think of is to either try a different PC, or to completley remove WPSDK and Zune, reboot, then re-install them.

i reinstall both WPSK and zune several times. and now when i try install an app or a game with Multi Xap Install the application Stops Working and making me close it..
this bug is killing me!!

Try using the official XAP deployment tool, and see what error it gives.

excuse me.. what is Official XAP Deployment Tools? i searched but nothing found
if you mean installing via Zune.. it's ok with no problem.
P.S: when i try with WPV XAP Deployer i got this error :
Specified Cast is not valid

Something like this happened to me a while back. Are you sure your installing the right developer tools. I'm assuming you have mango. Dev tools should be 7.1
Sent from my HD7 T9292 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

thank you for answering.. yes i have mango and also WPSK 7.1 is installed..

I mean the "Application Deployment" tool (xapdeploy.exe) that comes with the SDK. I don't think you can get much more official than that. It's relatively feature-poor, but it's also both less buggy and gives better error messages than most of the third-party deployers.

You should try using the official XAP deployment tool installed with the SDK. It's on your start menu Also make sure that Zune is launched.

found the solution xap deployer parameter error (fixed)

hi..
I changed my devices name to lumia and tried deplying a game and it worked so i guess
changing the name is the solution. I got suspicious about the name because usually my phone's name appears as windows phone but this time it was windows phone 09832 or something i dont remember the exact numbers but it works for me.
To fix parameter error in deploying tool Just rename your device to lumie or anything else

[Q] How install XAP on LG E900?

Hey,
My LG E900 is the OS version: 7.10.8107.79. And I want to unlock it take to install applications and games XAP. I used the method by MFG, I put XAP in a Tom XAP Installer to install, and gives me this error when installing:
-Please Make sure your phone was unlocked !
-Please Make sure you connected device to PC and Zune launched
Try again?
What happening? This method does not it? You can get the original ROM and remain the ChevronWP7 up to this latest version? I have another way?
Thanks in advance and sorry my english!
PS: I can put original Rom, install ChevronWP7 and remain to Last Version (7.10.7740/7.10.8107, or other)?

Use the official Xap installer tool "Application Deployment" that comes with the SDK. The third-party installers are plagued with bugs and bad error messages. Many of them also require at least a few components from the SDK, even if they say otherwise.
If you want to make sure that the phone is ready to receive apps, try synching a file to it from Zune - Zune must be running and synched with the phone for XAP deployment.

[Q] How to open or Deploy original XAP into WP7

Hi All,
I have been using my 2nd gen Samsung Win Phone for a while (Omnia W - GT-I8350 to be more specific). I have recently interop unlock it.
The main account on the phone is a US Live account. So the app store tied to the US version. I however now living in the UK and wanted to install O2 Priority Moments. The app is only on UK store and when I tab the link on O2 website from my phone, it doesn't allow me to install it due to country restrictions.
I managed to found the app page on my PC, and downloaded the XAP for installing via SD card. But my phone doesn't have a card slot. I tried to sideload the XAP using Deploy software. But it cannot be read by the application.
Also, I thought normal XAP should have no difference to a ZIP file. But those I downloaded from Windows Phone website just cannot be open with 7zip or RAR software. The same happens to another free app that I wanted to install, but only available in the Hong Kong store.
Can anyone shed me some light on sorting it out?
Many thanks,
Jack

As far as I know, XAP files cannot be opened and edited like, for example, apk files in Android, because Windows Phone isn't open source. Therefore, all the apps are protected from editing (you actually CAN open them in WinRAR!).
If you have a proper XAP file of the app, you should be able to sideload it with Tom XAP Installer for example. But I'm fairly new to the world of Windows Phone, so you might wanne wait for someone else's answer. In the meantime, take a look here, it seems to be possible to change your region and therefore download the app the official way: http://windowsphone.uservoice.com/f...-allow-changing-your-windows-id-live-location

I have no problem in deploying other homebrew apps and/or "modified" apps in to my phone. Only those XAP downloaded from the windows phone website, those supposed to be installed via SD card, does work for me.

I think it's because now apps from Marketplace are encrypted, so maybe only Marketplace app can decrypt and install them.
If you're phone is unlocked, you can make an archive file for each installed app and then save it into your pc (if you search in this forum you should find some threads about this item).
Winrar or similar software "don't know" they need to decrypt the xap file.
