To install the App on the Lumia 625, those should be the steps: 1 - Download the application with extension .xap 2 - Copy the file into the phone SD card 3 - Go to the Windows Phone Store 4 - Click the 3 dots on the bottom-right corner 5 - Click on 'Install local apps'At that point my application should be listed there and I should be able to install it.
My current problem is that after step 4, the option 'Install local apps' is not visible...I have download WhatsApp.xap from internet and when it is added to the SD Card that option shows up and I am able to install the application.
Windows Phone Apps Download Xap Files
Download Zip: https://byltly.com/2vAnLB
Over the years there have been various attempts to archive Windows Phone games (each of which typically exists as a single '.xap' archive), some more successful than others, but thanks to a reader here I was pointed to this archive, which is the one I'll use below. (Small print time: as you'd expect, AAWP takes no responsibility for the status or contents of files found at such external URLs, it's the reader's/downloader's risk!)
There's another caveat too - in order to play the games then you need to leave your phone in 'developer' mode. Not a huge issue, I suspect, since if you're clued up enough to be tackling this then you'll also know to avoid any malicious apps you might encounter. But worth noting. If you take your phone out of 'developer' mode then you'll get an error message when launching such side-loaded titles.
In case you want to install the XAP manually, you can do that by using the Application Deployment tool or a SD Card. To install apps and games from your phone's SD card, Insert an SD card that contains one or more .XAP files into your phone. Now go to Start button, tap Store tile, then tap SD card. Select the apps you want to install, then tap Install. This will install the apps in the app list of your Windows Phone.
In the other hand, it may expose the XAP contents to any user who downloads it from the phone store manually. There is a possibility of reverse engineering too. But I am sure that those XAP files are well protected by the Windows Phone Store. To test it out, I downloaded one of my Phone application in XAP format and renamed it to .ZIP extension. Then I tried to open the new ZIP file in popular ZIP applications like WinZIP and WinRar, but those process went in vain as it popped up with the below message in the screen saying a corrupted file format:
Windows Phone store allows the users to directly download the app packages from the store. This is made possible as unlike Android where apps can be side-loaded without using Play Store, the apps on Windows Phone are still required to be installed by logging into a Microsoft Account. Follow the steps below to download the app XAP (or the newer APPX) files to your PC.
1. Create a Windows Phone Store AccountIn order to acquire an enterprise-signing certificate, you first need a Windows Phone Store account. Sign up for a new account at dev.windows.com/join, or access your account at dev.windowsphone.com/dashboard. Be aware of a catch here: Your account needs to be a company account, not an individual -- make sure you select the right box, as it's extremely difficult to change it at a later stage.
