Upgrading Nokia Lumia 1020 to Windows 10 & Project Astoria questions

Heya,

yes for XAP files you either need the Windows Phone 8.1 Application Deployment Tool (not the 8.0 one) or use the Interop Tools App. With that you can cap unlock your phone and it should be able to install the XAP file just fine (as long as it's not decrypted).

Btw after the hardreset, the Camera App should show up again.

The build you use is not compatible with WPInternals. Why do you still want to unlock it with WPInternals though?

Thanks, I'll then try to install some of the XAP files that I downloaded for Lumia Camera using that Deployment tool. So, did I understand correctly that XAP files are not possible to install directly from the phone, but Deployment tool is needed? Cause for some files I got the message that it's not acceptable file (or something like that).

I wanted to use WPInternals to make full backup image of the phone. For that I would need to unlock bootloader.

And btw, today during night after I did hard reset I signed up to Microsoft account using my own credentials (my father was already asleep so I couldn't ask him for his password), and it seems it's not possible to remove that first initial account in phone account Settings, but it's needed to make hard reset (in progress now again :-)) and start all over again. Well done Microsoft! :-)
