I have created a new project called Graphics and I coded it and submitted the app to windows market place. But it seems that the term Graphics term is very generic and for that reason my app got failed. They have mentioned it to change the XAP name.
Are there any ways to do it?
Double click on properties in your solution explorer and click on Application tab on the left. Change the required details. Xap file name, Title and other options which you want to change.
Find your app's WMAppManifest.xml file.
and change the Title Node in App.
You can change your app's display name in the WMAppManifest.xml, which is under the Properties of the project.

I created a windows form app in Visual Basic, the name of the app is "Example_1".
The name of the solution is "Example_1"
The name of the project is "Example_1"
The Text on the form is "Example_1"
The assembly name is "Example_1"
What is the problem?, well at my first try to do this app, I created it as the name of "Example_0" which I have been changing through all the properties to show the new name "Example_1".
Somehow, when I run the app, in the taskbar appears the correct name or if I put my mouse above it, it says "Example_1", in the correct way.
BUT, if I Right-clicked over the icon in the taskbar, it says "Example_0", WHY!
I have already checked all the app properties and nowhere it says "Example_0"
What I am missing?
I think you can find the old name into the "Assembly Info".
Expand your project in solution exporer, then double click "My Project".
In the Application tab you will have the "Application info" button.
My app is currently called a silly name. Does anyone know how to change it using xcode7?. By app name i mean when you see the little app icon on the home screen with the apps name below it.
i have looked at other answers but they are only explained using Xcode 4-6.
xcode7 only!
Well, if you want to simply change your app's name in Springboard (aka Home screen), without renaming your project, targets and etc (which is always a lot of pain), you can just change "display name" in your app's Info.plist.
More info here: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/qa/qa1823/_index.html
As far as I know, it applies to all versions of Xcode.
This did not change at all for quite a long time, so any older Xcode version answer does still apply:
In Project Navigator select your project > select your build target >
go to Build settings > Product name
Just change product name for your target.
I am new to using PhoneGap for windows phone 7.
I'm not entirely sure what the problem is - when I try to add an existing image, it's not added to the CordovaSourceDictionary.xml file, but if I manually add the image to CordovaSourceDictionary.xml, it is deleted when I build. How should I fix this problem?
Here is a tutorial by Daniel Egan. Also I have some other links for you
Tutorial: how to create HTML5 applications on Windows Phone thanks to PhoneGap.
Getting Started with Windows Phone.
Getting Started with Windows 8.
Apache Cordova Documentation.
Hope this will help you.
Check image Build Action property (Solution explorer, item Properties view). It must be set to Content, (when you add image, by default this property value is Resource)
CordovaSourceDictionary.xml is updated by the build process which relies on the way Visual Studio works. You need to trigger a file update, you know, like Right click on the Solution > Add > Add new folder / Existing item etc.
What I do is drag the file from Windows Explorer into the Visual Studio project and drop it in the images folder. NOW Visual Studio knows you have add a new file and when you run the project CordovaSourceDictionary.xml gets automagically updated with your changes.
Keep up the good fight!
This probably isn't what is breaking your system, but the JS framework I use adds a url query to each image when in a debugging mode (in order to force browsers to reload image, instead of using cached). So, my image "image/background.jpg" would be accessed as "image/background.jpg?d=34342233". But, when running on phoneGAP for Windows Phone, it won't recognize the image, and thus it shows up as broken. So, I had to turn off debugging for the framework I use, and suddenly the images showed up. Don't forget to set the Build Action to "Content" as mentioned earlier.
So I am writing an app for Windows Phone 7.
Today, I didn't know what got into me, but I naively thought that by changing the Assembly Name, the Xap File name, the deployment Title, and the regular Title I would change my application name. I keep getting a NullReferenceException and I think my program will never work again. I was really stupid in changing the names and I'm wondering if there's anyway to fix this. Thanks so much!
Apart from checking for any errors in the WMAppManifest.xml file - you also need to update the startup object in your main phone application project if you've renamed it or its namespace.
To do this, right-click on your main project in Visual Studio and select Properties. In the "Application" tab, update the "Startup object" drop down to point to your new object, in the correct namespace. You probably want to check everything else on this setttings page is correct too.
Same problem here, solution:
1. change the namespace of 'App.xaml' & 'App.xaml.cs' to the target startup object name
2. clean and rebuild the solution
4. open the property window and choose the new 'startup object'
I have a Windows Phone 7 app that has a space in the name. VS replaced the space with an underscore throughout the app, which is Ok for namespaces and such, but I cannot figure out how to remove it from the app name as it appars on the device start menu.
Check the properties of your phone project and look for the Title property under Deployment Options.
Double click on project properties and in the field xap file name remove underscore. It worked perfectly for me.
