I found older xap but it's not possible to deploy it on phone with locked capabilities. But for install gdr2 it's enough to use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...xap-custompfd-registry-editor-tweaks-t2981057

Howdy!

First off, thanks for your apps! They've worked for me several times before and helped much.

Strangely enough, the app stopped working for me all of a sudden.

I noticed it first when it started crashing on my attempts to deploy CustomPFD version 0.3 and patch PFD's files with files from CustomPFD_003.xap.

It seems that CustomWPSystem now fails to properly set permissions on the file system of SD card.

Indeed, here's what I have done:
1. I started CustomWPSystem, tapped SD Card permissions and made sure it turned green.
2. Then I tapped to unhide the WPSystem folder on the SD card.
3. After that I opened Metro Commander and navigated to D:\WPSystem\ and made an attempt to rename the Apps subfolder within.

Bummer!

I've got 0x05 Error code.

Quite clear why CustomWPSystem was failing to deploy CustomPFD.

Any clues on fixing this?

Thank you!

lumia 1020

is it working on Lumia 1020..? because 1020 don't have memory card slot

 

[Velrix]

I have installed the 006 version of the app on a AtivSE however when I click SD Card permissions nothing happens. I am on 8.1, I have tried v5 as well. Not sure what else to do at this point.

 

[Pasquiindustry]

Version 0.7 available! Every detail is available within the first post

 

[augustinionut]

How about to let us choose witch app to use? Example: extras info cant be mooved to SDCARD, mixradio retired from store, the only to use is preview for developers. I mean, can we use any store app with id cap interop ?

 

[Pasquiindustry]

Every app has his way to be patched and I think that it's better to manage which apps is elegible to be patched.

 

[augustinionut]

Yes , are those from settings extras and the others. Put a way to let us try different apps installed on sdcard. Who know, maybe we can find new eligible apps.

Not working

Hi, following XDA user djamol tutorial, I've created an helper that allows in less click to patch system app to use OEM APIs
This app is based on This tutorial from this topic (ok... seems that there's no more tutorial there)
Remember that you need an SD card into your phone!

NOTE | I've updated this app to 0.7 and some of the functionalities are changed, so some of the tutorials created for 0.6 or less may be obsolete!

how does this work?
Detailed instructions are available within the app. Just swipe to go to the next section.

FAQ
Q: I'm getting ACCESS DENIED error
A: When you get this error, an error message will appear, make sure that "SD Card permissions" is GREEN and not RED

Q: the app crashed immediately after patch
A: ehm... I don't know, please advice me within this topic. Try to deploy again the app.

Q: Preview For Developers (or other apps) vanished from app list and I can't reinstall or unistall
A: Use Storage Sense to unistall the app

Q: Can I restore original apps?
A: Sure! Unistall and reinstall the target app

OTHER TROUBLESHOOTING
> Remove/unistall the app from the app list within your phone
> Be sure that in Storage Sense default location for app storage is INTERNAL MEMORY
> Deploy the app with "Windows Phone Application Deployment 8.1" (the 8.1 is relly important, the name may change, don't use 8.2, 8.0 or without numbers). Some Visual Studio versions have multiple deployers included, use the 8.1 version.

Thanks to everyone that is related with this project
Sorry for bad english and enjoy!

It does not work in lumia 530, and also your apps inside customwpsystem are very limited.
The Preview for developers when used in lumia 530 it is not working it just open then closes,
extras+info can't be anymore move to scard
mixradio is already dead app

Please... Please...Can any body give me the source code of how to get sd card permission... I'm getting an access denied error in my app while it transfers appdata folder to appdatax ....

Access Denied error caused because you didn't decelerated the SD Card capability .
If you are on a Universal or a Windows Runtime project for 8.1 and 10 go to the Package.AppxManifest and then in the Capabilities tab check the Removable Storage capability and save it .
On Silverlight projects you have to expand the Properties in the Solution Explorer and the go to Manifest . then check removable storage and save .
I can't remember the exact path of silverlight projects but it's something like that I said

 

[Pasquiindustry]

Ops... sorry for double post :S
However, I'm going to update my apps to give them the same "key" features and unified UI and CustomWPSystem will get a small update too.
This unified UI will be similar to my "Tracker Player" app and CustomWpSystem need some little "tweaking" too.
I'm available for any advice about features
