How to Update Windows Phone Device via Computer

Hello everybody,
I got a notification that there is an update for Windows phone 8. And my device needs to connect to a wi-fi. But you know, Windows phone can't connect to wifi with a static ip(which is a shame). Anyway, so I can't connect to my wifi and I need to update
my device. Is it possible for me to update it via my computer? I tried Zune but it didn't work as it's for WP7. I am using HTC 8x.
Thank you all for your attention and for your help.
Have a great day!

Hi Rob,
I am a developer too and I know what this forum is about. And this question interesets both devs and users. I've also asked here because I wanted to learn what you guys are doing to update your devices as we have problems on connecting to wi-fis with static
ips. But thank you for your attention and for your caring anyway.
Have a great day!

How to update this phone ?

If your on IOS 5 you can update thru your phone via wifi and plugged into a wall charger.
If your not on IOS 5 then plug your phone to your computer open iTunes and then update that way, itunes should automatically see that an update is needed. Suggest you backup your phone first then update.

I need to update my phone, but my computer broke, and do not have a new one. I have an Itunes account, can I use someone else computer to go through with the update? Is there a chance of loosing all my data, ie: music/photos?

How to get Windows phone 7.8 update??

I've a Nokia Lumia 800. I realise there is a new update for the Nokia Lumia , Windows Phone 7.8. Yet I still have the old 7.5 version. My phone tells me that it's up to date but obviously it's not, my computer also says it's up to date. Please help, how do I get the new 7.8 update?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Once available for your device you will get a notice on the phone. Next time you connect to your PC with Zune running you will be able to update.
At this time Microsoft has halted the update process due to a found issue which needs to be fixed. No information on when the update will resume or restart is currently available but is expected to be shared as soon as Microsoft is ready with the issue.

How to run windows mobile device center via remote desktop

I am developing mobile application in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. I connect to my computer via remote desktop and my operating system is Windows Server 2012 R2. In order to test the application, I use mobile device emulator. I can run device emulator but
there occurs a problem when I try to cradle the device. I found out that this is because wmdc cannot run via remote desktop. Is there any way to run wmdc via remote desktop? I searched other topics but there is no solution to this.
Note : WMDC works when I directly use the computer not with remote desktop.

Hi Omer,
Please check this thread to see if there is one solution may solve your problem.

Is it possible for someone who updated my phone on their computer to read my messages without me knowing? If so how can I stop that?

Is it possible for someone who updated my phone on their Mac to read all my current messages? And if so how can I stop it?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I really doubt it. To do that, that person must have stolen your Apple ID email and password, and then, log in Messages in his/her iPhone with your Apple ID to read your messages. The Apple ID of an iPhone doesn't change when you connect it to your Mac, so don't worry

How to uninstall Windows Phone 8.1 Emulator from Visual Studio

Hello, I recently installed the Windows Phone 8.1 Emulator for Visual Studio. However, I found out that you need to be running Windows 8/8.1 Pro to deploy the emulator, but my computer is the regular edition of Windows 8.1.
How would I uninstall the emulator?
Thanks for your help.

I recently installed the Windows Phone 8.1 Emulator for Visual Studio
What exactly did you install? Visual Studio 2013 (Update 2 and above) already includes 8.1 phone emulators, although there is a separate installer available for updated emulator versions. Open Control Panel >> Programs >> Programs and Features,
and search for "Windows Phone". If the emulator is listed, right-click to uninstall.

How to stop Windows phone 8.1 app from crashing?

Hi All,
I have developed an app in Windows Phone 8.1 environment (WinRT). When i tested the app in my local testing device, it worked fine but when i hosted the app on app store, it sometimes crashes. Please help me, how do i stop my app from crashing?

Sometimes crashes or always crashes when deployed through the store?
If you want to rely on data instead of magic then check the crash reports as Abdul suggests. If you want magic then my crystal ball says that if it always crashes the app is trying to write to its install directory.
The install directory is writable for test deployed apps but not for apps deployed from the store.

VS2013 - I cannot deploy and debug windows phone 8.1 store app to windows phone device

Hello, I create a project from C#-> Store Apps -> Windows Phone Apps, but I cannot deploy my apps to my blue device. There was a error message show "Element not found". I can run the app from Blend, and found Blend package the app to Appx
file. Is any method that we can deploy store app into windows phone blue device directly and how to debug it on VS 2013?

Hi,
Welcome to MSDN.
I am afraid that this is not the proper forum for this issue, since this forum is to discuss and ask questions about the Visual Studio Debugging tools, Visual Studio Profiler tools, and Visual Studio Ultimate IntelliTrace.
Since your issue needs professional windows phone knowledge, and there is dedicated forums for windows phone development issues
Windows Phone Development forums, you could choose one of its sub forums depends on your issue like Tools
for Windows Phone development or
Developing for Windows Phone .
In addition, I did a research, you could check whether the following links help.

Palm Pre Tethering to Windows Mobile Device via Dialup Network or USB

I've got a Windows Mobile device that I tethered to the Internet via Dialup Network on my old Verizon phone, and would like to use the Palm Pre for that same purpose. The Windows device does not have wi-fi, so that's not an option, but maybe tethering through USB might work.
Does anyone have any experience with this and can give me some direction on setting it up? Thanks!

there is a way to connect via usb,
refer to precentral.net and do a search.
