I get the error message with all xaps. If they install, besides getting the message, the are slow and buggy. I can't remember right now which don't install, but some don't install at all. Actually I can see the icon on my phone, they just don't start, I get a blank screen and then back to the app catalogue.

you can't name one xap that has given you a problem? What app is loading to black and then crashing back? It sounds like you are trying to install paid apps as xap and the DRM is causing fail.

well, some of us have to work too, so they cannot remember all the apps they tried to installed and crashed. especially when they are not on their phones at that moment.

For example, touchxplorer crashes 99%. Kindle and SHCamera are slow like hell. And I am sorry, but I am not going to try all my apps right now to see which one crashes. kindle and SHCamera are the main I use, and touchxplorer is the one I would like to use.

Was that helpful for you?

I am using HD2 roms on an iphone 4 and I am trying to install apks, this is the blackberry forum right?

I am sorry for being sarcastic, couldn't help it...

Anyway, I deleted Tom Xap Installer and I tried to install xaps using WPDM and everything went just fine. Now I just have to figure out how to make the rest WPDM functions to work.

Thanks for your answers.

WPDM? Windows Phone Development Manager?!

I am wanting to install the HTC Hidden WIFI app but the marketplace has locked it so I can't be downloaded.

I've been reading and it seems Tom's XAP installer, fantastic as it is, requires the phone to be unlocked (using Chevron or something similiar). My phone is only unbranded, is there anyway to install this app without having to purchase/register as a developer?

I do always get the following error

-Please make sure your phone was unlocked
-Please make sure you connected device to PC and Zune lauched
Try again?

Zune is running, HTC Mozart is connected and my phone is Developer unlocked.
Installing app to the Emulator works.

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

Anyone a hint for me?

I get the same error on my Trophy that is ChevronWP7 unlocked:
-Please make sure your phone was unlocked
-Please make sure you connected device to PC and Zune lauched
Try again?

Zune is connected and it is unlocked, how do I get around this?

    Hi all !

    For all devices unlocked with ChevronWP7 Unlocker , we're can easy install custom ringtones or applications .XAP format via Application Deployment , but everytimes need open start menu --> Application Deployment then browser .xap to tool for install take too much times and almost make some in us crazy :)

    That why i decided to write Tom XAP installer , basicly Tom XAP installer and Application Deployment are the same ( Alow install custom .xap to device and emulator windows phone 7 ) But Tom XAP installer a lot convenience , it's alow you install .xap with double click to file or simple just right click --> install xap

    How to :

    Download exe and put it somewhere in PC, run it , it will automatic add registry path of application and add menu , icon to .XAP files

    Capture.PNG

    Then just close it and now double click to custom ringtones , or any .xap format files , the Tom XAP installer will automatic open and give you some details ( App name , Version , Author , Size , Description of XAP ) then select where you will install xap ( device or emulator )

    Press Install and wait it finish.

    Notices :

    1. Tom XAP installer Requires .NET 4.0 Framework and Windows Phone 7 SDK

    2. If you install xap to device
    - Please make sure your device was unlocked with ChevronWP7 Unlocker ( Here is guide how to unlock )
    - Make sure your device was connected with PC and Zune lauched
    - Make sure your device not in sleep mode

    3. If you move Tom XAP installer.exe to other location in PC , you should run it again one time for registry again location of application

    4. If you don't like this software , just run Tom XAP installer.exe and uncheck " Enable Tom XAP installer" it will uninstall all registry of Tom XAP installer in your PC

    -Updated v1.2 2/7/2011 :

    -Update support multiple xaps install
    -Make right admin access

    It's only a matter of time before we figure out a registry setting or a tweak that will allow more.
