I am a wp8 developer and searching for a way to deploy my app on device "without the cable". I have searched over the web and could find nothing helpful. I know about he "Application Deployment" tool in WP8 SDK and my phone is also Developer Unlocked. I know how to simply deploy an app on windows phone. All i am looking for is to know, Is there any way I can deploy my application to my phone without using the phone cable?
Lets say i dont have my cable with me, what options do I have now?
Currently you can't debug an app on your phone without the USB cable. You can do this when developing for Windows 8.x so perhaps with the coming WP8.1 update we'll get the same feature for the phone..
There is the beta testing you could do for a test deployment through the store but the app will run through the cert. process so this is no option for testing while developing and there is no debugging.
You can only use the cable to deploy to your device. If you dont have a cable with you, just use the emulator.

How beta windows phone 8.1 app. Might sound like a newbie question but bear with me. I have written and app like quite a few others but this is the first app where I want to support wp8.1 and wp10. The app side loaded on to a wp8.1 or wp10 device works fine as expected.
If put into the Windows store as beta with the necessary emails will install on wp10 devices but refuses to install on wp8.1 devices no matter what.
If I put into the store as normal it fails testing with an ungraceful shutdown that I cannot replicate.
I can't install beta to get the crash dumps to find out what's going on. So now am completely stuck.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
If you want to publish a beta version to a specific group of people, then you'll need to select the following option :
Hide this app and make it available only to the people you specify
below, who can download this app on Windows Phone 8.x devices. A
promotional code may be used to download this app on Windows 10
devices.
Only the people whose email addresses (associated with their Microsoft accounts) that you enter in the box can download your app by using the direct link to its listing. If you want W10 beta testers, then you'll need in addition to generate promotional code and send each promoted link to your W10 beta testers. Check this link to learn more about beta publishing on Windows Store.
If you failed to install beta version on WP8.1 devices, I can see two reasons:
Email addresses defined in the publisher portal do not match with the one activated on the WP8.1 devices
You tried to install the WP8.1 app immediately after defining the list of Email addresses in the publisher portal. In fact you'll to wait couple of hours before beta version becomes available on devices
Thanks for your answers. But after a long protracted process I finally got through to Microsoft. (If you do't have paid for MSDN support is damn near impossible to talk to anyone) Turns out there was a problem with my dev account. safe to say the issue is now fixed and apps are downloading/installing again
I'm writing universal app for win 8.1 using C#, which should have capability to show available WiFi networks and manage connecting to them.
I've found libraries for that: http://managedwifi.codeplex.com/ or http://blogs.msdn.com/b/winsdk/archive/2015/01/09/wlan-programming-how-to-tips-and-tricks-including-using-it-in-c.aspx .
Unfortunately they are not build for .NETCore and I haven't find a way to include it and compile them in my project.
I've tried also Windows.Networking.Connectivity.NetworkInformation.GetConnectionProfiles but I can get names but not the exact SSID displayed to the user.
I am new in Windows phone development application. I built an app package and use Application Deployment Tool deployed it to devices for testing. But a microsoft account only allows to deploy 3 devices in maximum. I tried The Chinese tool aiyingyong_pc to jaibreak the Windows phone but it not work. Are there any ways to deploy to many devices or any tools can jailbreak the Windows phone?
As far as I know, except for Samsung devices, there is no jailbreak available for Windows Phone 8 (only for Windows Phone 7).
According to Microsoft, you can increase the device limit if you open a support ticket: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/matthiasshapiro/archive/2012/12/14/how-to-register-more-than-3-windows-phones-for-development.aspx
Honestly, I've never tried and the article is more than two years old, so I don't know if it's still true.
Otherwise, the only workaround left is publishing the app as a beta. Though not as convenient, you'll be able to install it on as many devices as you wish.
When I connect my iPhone to desktop (say windows 7), I need to identify if a specific app is installed in my iPhone or not through my own application running in desktop.
How to do this?
I tried searching in internet, but could not find. Can iTune database will be of any help for this?
I could see the similar thing is done by iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/), but not able to figure out how to do!
please help.
You can use iTunes to get the details of all the applications installed on your iphone.
I am newbie to Apple. I have read many articles and stackoverflow threads but I am very confused. I am developing with XCode and MonoTouch(Xamarin). I am doing the development with C Sharp. I have done an application and I want to install that app to my iPad. I am working on MAC by the way.
According to my readings, I need to have a Apple Developer ID, which costs 99 us dollar. Is there another way to deploy without paying?
In order to deploy the App on to your device you need development certificate (could be created using Keychain Access) and development provisioning profile (which could only be created using Apple's Developer Account) . If you want to deploy your app on to device without these file you need to Jail Break your device but keep in mind that your device will be no more in Warrantee after you Jail break it.
Unless you jailbreak your iOS Device you'll need a Developer ID from Apple.
