Hey Guys,
i installed whatsapp on my lumia 920, when it was available in store. Now i bought my girlfriend a lumia 820 and the only thing she uses all the day is whatsapp, but now it's not available at store anymore. I have v2.8.2 installed on my lumia and tried to install the xap downloaded from the store on her 820, but the phone shows the app as "not compatible".
Is there anyone out there who have whatsapp on a 820 and is able to post the xap-file?
Big thanks!

You have to Jailbreak the phone, from that moment you can deploy xap files to your phone. I don't thonk there is another way yet, because you have to gain root acces to manual install.

That's not the full truth. Since few days you're able to download the "free" xap-Files from the windows-phone-store and place them on your sd-card to install them. With this you're able to install some apps "offline". I installed WhatsApp on my Lumia 920 from store and it works. So there must be a 'valid' xap-file for windows phone 8 that is "installable".

Would you mind elaborating this procedure a bit further? My N920 is developer unlocked and I've copied a XAP file to my phone. I placed it in Documents, because I haven't seen any suitable folder.
The phone itself has apparently no SD-Card, hence the store is not showing any "install from SD-Card option"
The app I' d like to install is "keep-alive" which isn't available anymore.
Kind regards,
azel

How does it work with Lumia 920 since it doesn't have a place for an external SD-card? I have downloaded Whatsapp on my computer and placed it on my L920's internal SD-card. When I open the store, my SD-card isn't listed as an option. What am I doing wrong? My phone isn't developer unlocked and I won't pay $99 just to get Whatsapp installed
if your phone is developer unlocked you can just use the xap tool provided by Microsoft with the SDK to deploy xap-files on your phone...

can you upload the xap to any server or contact me via pm?
Who needs a title anyway?
I have a developer unlocked HTC 8X, and I would really appreciate having the XAP file as well

Same problem in here. The funny thing is on my HTC 8x which i get in November Whatsapp is still installed because it wasn't blocked in the store at this point...
Now i have a Lumia 920 and can't install it anymore. If you download the xap from the microsoft store and deploy it with the WP8 SDK the error "XAP file is invalid." appears, so this won't work eighter.
Would be nice if anyone would provide a workaround.

What a bummer, I found a bunch of XAPs from various Chinese websites. They don't work either. ****kkkk.
I'll PM you. I'm not able to post links. Too bad it doesn't seem to work. Hope the app comes available in the store soon.
i have a 2.8.0.0 and a 2.8.2 and deployed both,both run but everytime i try to verify my number it says that i need to update my whatsapp to the newest...
we need a 2.8.8.
i have the 2.8.8 but it says invalid xap,the xap could be broken...i search for another one
Does anybody know a way to install .xap's on L920 without developer unlock? Too bad if it only works when using an external SD-card.
Give this xap file a try. Your phone will need to be developer unlocked and pushed to the phone with the Windows Phone SDK application deployment tool. It is version 2.8.2 but works fine on my HTC 8X after removing DRM info and repacking it.

That's what I'd like to know too... It can be done if your phone is developer unlocked but it costs $99 which is way too much. It's weird if .xap's can be installed on WP8 devices with external SD-slot but can't be installed on those that don't have a slot. Please share if you know something! I really need the app.
I did send the WP8 XAP of Whatsapp (http://www.windowsphone.com/de-de/store/app/whatsapp/218a0ebb-1585-4c7e-a9ec-054cf4569a79) to myself per email (I'm on a Lumia 920) but couldn't get it installed due to some error. But then, I already have Whatsapp installed when it was still possible to do so.
Hey guys,
I know there's another XAP Thread here going around, but I have a different question.
So, btt, since 2 weeks I have my sexy N920 and I'm pretty satisfied with it.
Yesterday I've registered a WP8 Dev Account and tried to push .xap files on my device (with the official tool and the device is already registered), but it keep saying 'Unable to deploy .xap file'.
Somebody have a reason for that?
Thanks & BR.

It should given you some error code so we could look into what might be the reason the phone rejects your XAP files.
What XAPs are you trying to deploy?
Hey Guys,
Been searching through the forums and haven't found a clear answer on this.
I currently have an unlocked Samsung Focus v1.3 , flashed with Dynamics 2.0 WP 7.8 rom from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016769
I've already tried the straighttalk.xml email solution with WP7 Root Tools and the provxml folder with no success. And on post #3 in the link above there is the nokia driver cabs and the nokia oem network setup app which I've loaded via the instructions provided.
I however cannot find where the app is located or if the load worked. Any and all help is appreciated.
Rom is working great but I'm trying to get the Nokia Network Setup app on it so that I can change APN settings for Straight Talk with a bit more ease.
Can't u not just save the XAP file and install it via wp7 root tools?

I have found a solution since my first post to get nokia network setup app working. Thanks for the reply. I cant remember where the thread was located on XDA but there is an OEM change app that I was able to load and change my OEM from Samsung to Nokia and get access to the Nokia portion of the marketplace and download the Network Setup App.
Thanks
Hi, all
I am a android noob and also new on this forum.
I would like to self-host my synchronizable agendas.
I managed to auto-sync my "calendar.db" file from my android phone to my PC, using BTsync.
This "calendar.db" then I can open using an SQLite viewer.
My question : Is there a WIN7 calendar-application that can directly work with this .db file?
Or do I need to have it converted to ical every time when I auto-sync, to open it for example in Chandler?
Can I write / is there a small script to do so?
Tia for any answers ..
I want to know, is it possible to change a .Xap file into .Appx file? May be quiet a foolish qus. Bt i wanna know.
My Device is Nokia Lumia 920
Currently Running Windows 10 Mobile 10586.545
I had a backup of an app.. It named Camera360.xap [it's one of my fav app & isn't available in store] [Camera360 Sight is available bt i don't like it much]
Bt this app doesn't install on Windows 10
So i want to change the file format.
Renaming it doesn't work.
I'm asking this question cz when i upgraded from windows 8.1 to windows 10 mobile it was working as it was installed in windows 8.1 & after update it qas working fine..bt as we know we have to reset phone after a huge upgrade...i lost the app & can't use it afterwards.
It's may not a big issue for anyone bt still if anyone has any idea regard this pls help me by some information.
Thanks.
