I am having problems debugging a Windows Phone XNA game application. I can build it, but when emulator shows up I get the error:
The current display adapter does not meet the emulator requirements to run XNA Framework applications.
I've read many topics on the same issue and in most cases the reason was not good enough graphics card. I don't think that's why I get this error. I would also like to mention that I can run Silverlight applications for WP7. Here are some screenshots:
DxDiag window
DxDiag display window
I also downloaded latest ATI Catalyst package today but it didn't help. Any ideas?
Thanks!
EDIT:
This is what I have just found out:
Is this maybe causing a problem. I am not sure because the error says the issue with display adapter.
you could try to override the requirements check, however make sure you backup your registry and you are on your own if something goes wrong:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\XDE XNAEnableGPU = 1 (REG_DWORD)

I have been developing a Windows phone app on my lunch breaks at work and spare time at home. The project is stored in my Dropbox so it's the same on both pcs. At work when I debug/deploy to the device everything is fine and dandy. At home however I get the following.
Error : DEP6100 : The following unexpected error occurred during boostrapping stage 'Connecting to the device':
SmartDeviceException - Deployment failed because no Windows Phone was detected. Make sure a phone is connected and powered on.
Error : DEP6200 : Boostrapping 'Device' failed. Device cannot be found. Deployment failed because no Windows Phone was detected. Make sure a phone is connected and powered on.
Now in both cases I'm using the same version of the SDK and of VS on the same Microsoft account on the same phone on the same project. But it doesn't work.
I have reinstall the SDK twice now to no avail.
When I run the device registration I get the following message.
Unable to connect to a phone. Make sure the Windows Phone IP over USB transport service is running
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here, has anyone run into this before? Any ideas of a fix for the issue?
Update:
I have uninstalled 2013 r4 and installed 2015. I have done a hard reset on my phone. I have run Windows Update and I'm up to date. I have tried making brand new projects as some of the posts suggest, to no avail. Same issue occurs, except now my emulators get:
The following unexpected error occurred during bootstrapping stage 'Connecting to the device '184901A8-DC44-4CED-869E-DC7733D048D6'
I'm guessing the next step is reinstalling Windows, I think I'll just wait till Windows 10 comes out.
Possible Fixes:
1.Try reconnecting your phone.
2. try re registering your phone as developer device
3. try this fix

Testing apps on windows phones can be frustrating. One common problem I get is the need to reinstall drivers for the phone. I think this may be your problem.
The other problem similar to this I've encountered, was when registering for windows phone not using the correct version on that pc for 8.0 or 8.1.
Aside from this, there is a list with links provided that may help you. Let us know how you get on.
This link Problems and fixes when registering a Windows Phone 8 device to deploy/debug applications covers the major issues, some mentioned by Akash.
The following is a summary of the points discussed in the above link:
Windows Phone IP Over USB Transport(IpOverUsbSvc) service is running
Phone name is already in use by this account
Too many phones have already been registered with your account
Device lockscreen has to be unlocked (and it is unlocked)
Can’t find any devices
Point 5 is also addressed in this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/30303946/3956566.
Update after comment
The other thing that you may need to do is:
1. make sure you have all your updates in Windows.
2. Make sure you have all VS updates.
3. reinstall VS.
4. Reinstall any .net framework packages for VS.
The first two are the most likely things.
If worse comes to worse, to reinstall windows.
I have needed to do all of the above at one time or another to fix various issues. Painful, yes.
And don't forget to reboot your machine.
Let me know if this works. There MUST be a solution.
I know what you mean about the phone appearing in explorer, update anyway, won't hurt to reinstall them.
i am new to windows phone app development , i wanted to know
if is there any other alternative way to test a windows phone app apart from testing in a windows phone device and testing vs2012 built in emulator ???
1) The reason i have asked like these that i wanted to know if i can download a windows phone emulator separately and test my app in it.
2)Am i missing any other alternative provided ?
Please let me know.
Thanks in Advance.
No these are your options. You can start the emulator without VS, and you can deploy apps to it via a command line tool, but you don't get any of these without installing the WP SDK for VS2012. But since this is all free, is that a big deal?
You could submit your app to the store as a beta, and have invited users test your app on their phones.
This article may be of use, although it still requires .NET framework and some other dependencies (but I don't think you'll ever get away without using them):

I have a question about an application I developed for radio. It allows you to listen todifferent radio stations.
I installed on my Omnia 7 without problems, it works. Microsoft refuses, explaining that the application does not work.
Is it logical that the application works on my phone, not on their (Windows TestedPhones: HTC 7 Trophy, Samsung Focus / SGH-i91)?
And how to debug a problem like this? I do not know where does the fault and the emulator will be very useful to me.
Thanks for help

If your app failed at certification, you should have been provided a failure report document that indicates the reason why and how to reproduce the problem.

I'm using Windows 7 (all latest updates installed), and currently have DirectX 11 installed (according to dxdiag).
I'm trying to follow this tutorial: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff472340(VS.92).aspx and I can successfully compile the code (Build Solution produces no errors). The emulator starts successfully showing on IE icon on the main screen.
When I try to "Start Debugging" I get an error "The current display adapter does not meet the emulator requirements to run XNA Framework applications."
I've read The current display adapter does not meet the emulator requirements to run XNA Framework applications but it seems that all discussion in the links provided in that thread are for Windows Vista.
Please suggest what I can do. I'll be glad to provide more information if needed. Thanks!
Your display driver also needs to be WDDM1.1 compliant per the system requirements.
Search for WDDM in the text output of DXDiag.
Display driver update may be an option, if not replace adapter with compliant card.
I have the tools installed for windows phone 7 development.
But, when I run the any of the sample apps I have to manually refresh my emulator's app window to see any changes.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Or maybe a setting is wrong?
Thanks
I've got it on every machine I've tried- but they all have various Nvidia cards (desktop and mobile).
When I posted about this on the wp7 forums, they talked about wdm 1.1 (which I've got) and so far I have no fix.
My machines are all 64bit, so I'm wondering if this isn't some issue with them or the nvidia drivers- but I don't experience any other problems with the drivers outside of the emulator.
I think we're stuck for a while anyway...
