Setting your phone for development for Windows Phone 8

It’s important to test your apps on a real phone. Before you can deploy apps to your Windows Phone, you have to register the phone for development. After you register your Windows Phone 8 phone, you can install, run, and debug apps that target Windows Phone 8 or Windows Phone OS 7.1 on the phone.


To register a phone, use the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool. This is a stand-alone tool that’s installed as part of the Windows Phone SDK.

To register your phone by using the Windows Phone Developer Registration Tool

  1. Turn on your phone and unlock the phone screen.
  2. On your phone, ensure that the date and time are correct.
  3. Connect your phone to your computer by using the USB cable that came with your phone.
  4. On your computer’s Start screen, switch to All apps view.
  5. Under Windows Phone SDK 8.0, click Windows Phone Developer Registration. The app starts, as shown in the following image.

  6. Verify that the Status message displays Identified Windows Phone 8 device. Click the Register button to unlock the phone.
    If your phone is already registered, the Status message indicates this and you see an Unregister button.
  7. Click Register.
  8. In the Sign In dialog box for your Microsoft account (formerly known as a Windows Live ID), enter the email address and password for your Microsoft account. Click Sign In.
    If you’re a registered developer, be sure to use the Microsoft account associated with your developer account.
  9. After your phone is successfully registered, the Status message displays Congratulations! You have successfully unlocked your Windows Phone.
Your phone is now registered. You can now deploy apps to the phone.

If you have trouble registering your phone, check the following requirements.
  • Is the phone connected to the computer with the USB cable and recognized by the computer?
    • If you’ve connected a Windows Phone 8 phone, make sure it’s listed as a drive in File Explorer.
    • If you’ve connected a Windows Phone OS 7.1 phone, make sure it’s recognized by the Zune software.
  • Is the phone turned on and the screen unlocked? If you have to retry registration, be sure to turn the phone on again and unlock the screen.
  • Are the date and time set correctly on the phone? In SETTINGS | date + time, turn off the Set automatically setting and then retry registration. After registration succeeds, turn this setting on again.
  • Are both the computer and the phone connected to the Internet? On your computer, make sure that your web browser does not have Work offline enabled. Also, you cannot connect through a proxy server that redirects to a login page; for example, in a hotel or an airport.
  • Is your Microsoft account information correct and valid? If you use more than one Microsoft account, make sure that you have signed out of the other accounts and then retry registration.
  • Is your Windows Phone Dev Center account active and valid? To check your account status, in your web browser, browse to the Account page.
  • Is the IpOverUsb service (Windows Phone IP over USB Transport) running on the computer? If you still have a problem, consider restarting the service.

Insert an SD card that contains one or more .XAP files into your phone.

In the App list, tap Store Store Tile.

Tap More More icon, then tap Install local apps. (If you're running an earlier version of Windows Phone, look for the SD card option instead.) Note

If you've just inserted the SD card or added the .XAP files, you might need to wait a few minutes before you can access your SD card from the Store.

Select the apps you want, then tap Install.

Installed apps appear in the App list. Depending on the specific app or game, you'll be able to use them as follows:

Free apps and games can be used immediately.

Paid apps and games that have a trial will be available as a trial version that you can purchase later.

Paid apps and games without a trial must be purchased before you can use them.
