i dident see a area for the lumia 822 just the 820 but the anwser to my quesiten will be the same atlest it should be lol.... so here it is can you "me" download apps/games on sites like u can for androids? if so what kind of file is it like androds are apk
No, you cant! On WP8 you can only install Apps from the Store, no xaps or apks like on other OS.
If you have a Developer unlocked Device you can apply your own Apps for testing as I know.
If you developer unlock your phone than you can download and install apps just like on android...
Android has it's *.apk and Windows Phone has *.xap ...
If your a Student you can unlock your Windows phone for free...

where can find my ringtones mzart in system to get them on anther phone?
They're all in the \Windows folder. You can copy them to the PC using apps like TouchXperience + Windows Phone Device Manager, or Root Webserver (or even the older and low-priv Mango Webserver) + any web browser on your PC. They're just MP3 or WMA files.
where download theese appss in market?
You can't; they're homebrew apps that use APIs blocked from the Marketplace. You can get WPDM at TouchXplerience.com (make sure you get the one for WP7, not for WinMo). Root Webserver, and previous low-privilege versions of it, you can get from the link in my signature.
Note that these apps require that your phone be developer-unlocked before you can install them.

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 !

Hi,
I just want to register at Windows Phone App Studio and asking for a invitation code that requesting from Microsoft and after three days still haven't received.
Does anyone know where to get or how to get a invite?
Your devices will still need to be unlocked using the Windows Phone SDK. It doesn't matter if you use the WP7 or the WP8 SDK, they both have the stuff to Developer Unlock your WP7.5/7.8 devices. Your phone will need to be connected via USB for the unlock and the deployment of your apps. The app generated from the site will need to be downloaded and installed to your phone using the Application Deployment tool on yopur computer. Just make sure it says Device instead of emulator when deploying.
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.
Anyone know how to make it work?
Thanks,
Jack

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.

Various different apps. not only one, but coz they are free apps, no one would bother to crack them.
First off this is not for Pirating apps.
Would it be possible to install .xap files on the 8x HTC without unlocking it with DEV tools? If No how would i go about becoming a DEV and how would I unlocking it, and if you unlock the phone will it reduce the speed of the phone?
I really want to install Swapchat (3rd party Snapchat app that actually works well) which has been taken off of the windows store, but can still be downloaded as a .xap file.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks
