Hi everyone,
I'd like to use Nokia Xpress 1.7.0.1043 browser on an old WP8.1 Lumia but it's not available from the store anymore. I found a direct download link for the store app but it won't sideload because it's no longer supported (why do companies remove apps they don't support rather than just leave them there with a message saying "no longer supported, no more updates"?!)
So, first question, does anyone know how to sideload store apps that are no longer supported? Do I have to interop-unlock the phone or something like that?
Alternatively, if anyone has the unencrypted files in a XAP then please can they share it? I found Opera Mini here on the forums and deployed it successfully.
All help much appreciated.
Cheers
Change rar to xap, copy to phone, click on it.
Disable data restriction, surf on web
Thanks for the file. I did as you suggested, but it wouldn't sideload. I also tried deploying it with the VS2015 WP8.1 SDK app deployment tool but got error 0x810301B. I'm a bit stuck but will try a few other things, any suggestions much appreciated.
Cheers
Dont sideload, y already tell. Copy to phone and click on it. Im mad....
I thought that copying to the phone was sideloading. Anyway, I did that and it tells me that there is a problem with my company app and it can't be installed, same the Opera Mini XAP I got from here did. So I tried to deploy it, which worked for Opera Mini, but didn't work for Nokia Xpress.
Unfortunately the phone froze a short time later, wouldn't recover after soft reset and is now bricked and only shows as QHSUSB_DLOAD in device manager. I guess I need to use Thor2 to recover it (since WDRT no longer supports older Lumias!).
How old? My lumia 530 is suported.
Ok, here is the app to sideload from PC. Delete rar extension.

The 530 is supported. I've got a 925 which is unfortunately (and bizarrely) not supported. There's no published list but if you load the tool, say your device cannot be detected then you get the list to select from. It supports the 1520 and later, excluding the 2520 or 525. Basically, the 525, 2520 and anything earlier than the 1520 are NOT supported, which unfortunately includes the 925.
So the app you put up is to copy from the PC to the phone then open with "install local apps" in the store, or to deploy with the SDK application deployment tool?
Thanks.
Deploy .

Than what we can do with RM-801|Nokia Lumia 800 devices shown in Windows Device Manager...?
And I saw that the app says "this regisry..." so the app should have registry write access...only if someone could dump out the rom and this app...
That is a great find. I'll take look into that later! Thanks
maybe able to track thru the serial data what happens if you change the reg value back to zune? and what serial drivers can be installed.. hmm
I came across this a few weeks ago and played around. It does not seem to work, when pressing the Settings and then the USB mode it does not seem to do anything. It would be amazing to be able to use this device as a external HDD. I tried a number of variables from the other menu but to no avail. Any help on this would be awesome.
Thank-you,
Will

I have used WebServer XAP to get the app out from device (it is Oddt_Retail.xap) and look inside. There is a COM interop code which can be used for writing registry. I look further and does not find anything else which can be used for interop unlock...maybe i am not looking deep enough.
@nant15,
Did you ask heathcliff74 on xda ? Maybe he can do something...
Sent from my Lumia 800 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Could you post this WebServer XAP?! (or thread to it)
thanks,

In winxp you can load a driver for a system device! maybe later at driver level the connection data can be verified?
connect in serial mode. it will have detected a nokia rm801 or so and ask for a driver. it finds 4 devices.
for the first, the xp system will itself suggest
1) USB Composite Device
2) will not find anything, and show the dialog to go onto internet, search etc.
Don't search and choose the driver to install yourself, with the downmost radiobutton and click next, in the categories go to System Devices, the driver assist will suggest a Compaq Deskpro Thermal Sensor, install this. Will install without error
3) see 2.
4) see 2.
Because it installs a temperature sensor driver, it must be possible to monitor or probe somehow. help?
Hi,
I updated my Lumia 800 to WP7.8 using Nokia Caresuite. Now I tried to unlock it with the phone registration tool coming with WP8 SDK. I am using Windows 8. The problem is, that the phone cannot be connected. Further in Zune I can't see how much space I'm using on my phone. Is there a new Zune for WP7.8?

update:
Windows 7 and WP 7.1 SDK worked.

No, just go ahead to control panel and uninstall everything whose manufacturer is Nokia (no need to uninstall ncs, and, of course, don't touch zune), and, of course, reboot. I had the same problem and it helped me and couple of other people.
I had a similar problem on my bro's Win 8 PC (as I am an osx user). We couldn't deploy the xaps so we just uninstalled zune and downloaded it from microsoft's site again and it worked fine after that.
I managed to unlock my phone and deploy the apps through the WP7 SDK. Did it on Windows 7, though. Worked like a charm.

I had the same problems, I had to uninstall the drivers after use of the update software. For some reasons the drivers of the updating software did not seem the same as the Zune standard drivers. *using 64xWindows8
After uninstalling everything, worked fine again

All you need to do is uninstall the WinUSB drivers so the Zune drivers will be used again.
hey guys. i'm here because i too have a lumia 800 wp7.8 and it has been unlocked using the windows phone developer registration app.
the problem is, i can't deploy any application onto my phone. i've tried countless of .xap files to deploy (using Application Deployment) but the status keeps saying:
"XAP file is invalid".
My phone is registered. it connects to the zune software (which i have uninstalled and installed according to the posts above).
I tried it with Tom XAP Installer and it said "Make sure device is unlock" and "make sure it is connected to zune & pc".
I also tried it with MultiXap installer and it said "nullable object must have value".
Please help me!
Is there any way around this? greatly appreciate your help.

What kind of XAP's are you deploying? Pirated apps, your own, or copies from the Marketplace?
Do you have any error codes? Are you using WP7 or WP8 sdk, which OS?

My XAP files are downloaded from the Marketplace. I chose "Download and install manually" and that's how I got them.
No error codes. When I click on "Deploy", the App Deployment program just wrote "Status: XAP file is invalid".
I'm using the WP7.1 SDK with the SDK WP7,8 update.
My laptop is running Windows 7. My phone WP7.8.
Thanks for the quick reply
Hope I provided enough information!

No, you cannot install xaps from marketplace this way, why would you need that? All this apps can be installed via marketplace on the phone. The point of developer unlock is to install homebrew apps and those that cannot be submitted to the marketplace.

How did you unlock your Lumia 800 ? I cant unlock it ...
i dont even know if it is unlocked or nlocked
I have a Lumia 710, did downgrade to Dload (asks to format drive when plugged into computer in OSBL mode), installed latest Rainbowmod, sim-unlocked, etc.. In the end however, I decided to stick with the stock 7.5 rom since it seems to be faster, so I downloaded the rom via Navifirm+, and installed it using Downloader.
Now, things are fine, except Zune is having problems connecting with the phone. It recognizes the phone, can do sync and file transfers and such, but it can't read the storage properly.
Total storage and Available storage both show 0M.
Due to this, the App Deployment tool from Microsoft does not work, because it cannot connect to the phone (It worked before the issue came up). Windows mobile center also can't connect to the phone, etc.
What is the cause to this and is there a fix?
I've recall reading somewhere about Rom/Baseband mismatch and such..
Sorry if this issue was brought up already by others, but doing forum searches didn't give back much.
Edit:
Problem fixed.
Went through the support pages on the Microsoft site, ended up downloading a program called Microsoft Fixit (MicrosoftFixit50577.msi), which basically just deletes Zune for you, then opens a webpage with the download link for Zune. Not so much of a "fix" I'd say. Anyways, it's Zune 4.8, and the package is 170mb, which is actually different compared to the one found on the XBox section, http://www.xbox.com/en-CA/Live/Partners/Zune. This one is only around 100mb in size.
However, I didn't want to download the 170mb package due to slow internet, so I just ran the old 100mb Zune package, installed it, plugged in the phone, and noticed that drivers were installed.
Everything perfect now. I guess it's still the drivers that are messed up.
I'm pretty sure I've tried re-installing Zune before and not fixing the problem. Maybe the Fixit program is a cleaner uninstall which gets rid of the drivers as well.
Note: The Fixit program complained under Windows 8 about unsupported platform, and does not do it's job. Booted up Windows 7 (dual boot is the way to go..), and it works fine.
Note2: Running the program in compatibility mode under Windows 8, the programs works OK.
Edit 2:
On my Windows8, I deleted the driver called "Nokia Phone USB" (I think), and Zune detects the storage properly now.
I had this issue.
I just went into HELP in zune software(upper right corner next to Sign In etc..)
From there i just looked for : "Computer doesn’t recognize your device on the Zune Software" - it's the 8th thing from top to bottom.
from there I just followed their steps and if that wouldn't resolve my problem,i would just hit the NO button,and they would tell you something else to try.I ended up downloading a software from them,that finally resolved my problem.
Best of luck !
If you have trouble into following that I've just said,just PM me.
You need to uninstall the drivers that came with navifirm. They prevent zune from properly interacting with your phone.

Thanks! This fixed the problem on my Windows 8. I deleted the driver called "Nokia Phone USB", and Zune detects the storage properly now. Can't recall if the driver came from Navifirm though, can't remember.
Had the same problem on Windows 8 after upgrading my Lumia to 7.8 with Navifirm and Nokia Care Center. I uninstalled the drivers that came with Navifirm and it worked fine again
So first of all I just want to say "it has nothing to do with preview for developers". That's first.
Back then when I was using Lumia black (8), things seem to be fine.
After updating to 8.1 using preview for developers, yeah I live it very much. But I don't know what happened to my device. I was able to sideload stuff like, you know, install paid app for free. But that was for a while. Now I'm not able to do that anymore. Whenever I connect my device to PC, it keeps on showing device decriptor request failed.
DONT SAY "TRY USING DIFFERENT CABLE OR USB SLOT". I did ask those IT guys about it, but they seem stupid (no offend). All they told me was this line I mention in DONT SAY.
I have 5cables in my house, 2laptops and 1desktop, all with Nokia sdk, with total of 15 USB slots. I tried it all and it's not working.
I wish someone in here can help me since google couldn't. Sorry for my English.
to sideload XAP files you need WP SDK 8, developer account (pay $19/year to Microsoft) and dev unlocked phone with WP SDK... work fine on my Lumia 920 with preview for developers...
Didn't I say I was able to do that? Yeah I can. But pc won't recognize my device.

I swear to god, I have windows 8.1 64 bit, all on 2laptop and 1 desktop. All have Nokia Software Update and Nokia care suite thing. Maybe last month, or 20 days, I did side load amazing spider man 2 just fine. But today, it's not reading my phone. Again, I swear, I did not install or uninstall anything on both laptops and desktop. It just suddenly stops working. Or maybe it uninstalled itself from all 2 laptops and 1 desktop?
or maybe is hardware problem with USB connector on phone
Or an issue with the update. I was having all kinds of issues connecting to blue tooth devices after the update. A couple of hard resets and a fresh profile later and most of the kinks are worked out.
If all your computers and cords work, the only thing left is the device. It's either hardware or software, and the easiest thing to test is to put it into recovery mode and see if it detects it / can write to it.
I have the same problem but in a different scenario. I have bought a new Nokia 215. Its user manual says it can connect to a PC as a removable drive when it has a memory card in it. That's one of the reasons why I bought it in the first place.
To my utter disappointment, the same error (device descriptor failed) showed up. I tried to use google but couldn't find any useful solution. Tried other thing, eg changing cable, PC, USB slot etc but nothing worked out.
Then I connected it to a computer with linux and it worked in the first try. The memory card was accessible as a removable drive and I could easily read and write files.
I am amazed how poorly the programmers at Microsoft have been working lately that a phone made by Microsoft can't connect to a PC OS written by Microsoft.

Hi, I need to download a mobile app (x86 compatible) to be sideloaded on W10 pc.
The app is released for mobile only so I cannot install it from microsoft store, but I need it and I want to try to sideload it on pc.
The question is:
how to download appx bundle of mobile only apps?
will it work on pc?
Thanks!
You can download appx via this site: https://store.rg-adguard.net/
how i know you can`t install mobile appx on pc.
My reply
Gone are the days when Windows Store users were allowed to download XAP or APPX files manually for offline installations. With the introduction of Microsoft Store, Microsoft discontinued the option. Now, users are only allowed to install applications from the Store itself. This does not mean that you cannot install APPX files on your Windows 10 machine. But the main thing is getting an APPX file. For this, you can use a tool called Fiddler.
If you want to work with the source code of the program for a mobile phone, you can ask the developers or try to open it through the program.
It seems to me if you search you can find some kind of emulator that will display on the computer, but this is not accurate
EdbMails Office 365 migration tool is one of the most effective ways to migrate Office 365 tenants. I've used this software before, and it can easily move a huge number of mailboxes. I was able to contact their excellent 24/7 personal support at one point, and they were able to walk me through the procedure and requirements. If you're having trouble migrating to Office 365, I highly recommend EdbMails Office 365 migration tool.

Your IP or your compunter name or browser ID has been blocked or whatever they use to identify your computer has been blocked by microsoft server. It's also maybe limited to the number of time you can download a specific package that way.
I try to understand the way they decide to allow or forbid to download a package. I succeded to download 2 paid packaged app, one of them running just fine once unzipped (but could not install it as a UWP package because lack of certificate), the second one, still unzipped, missing shared dll to start, so downloaded successfully VCLibs.140 package but it refuse to install because to other insalled package has to be stopped first before that.
As the pace of the world picked up, professional workers began working remotely on a daily basis. This is because multiple companies have adopted new guidelines for working remotely with Microsoft Teams, making it important for companies to ensure their virtual teams have access to tools and technology to work on the go. I'm here. Because Microsoft 365 is completely cloud-based, users can work effectively anywhere, anytime, as long as they have an internet connection. Which makes many users and enterprises to adopt Office 365 Migration Services.
