VS2015 - How to Test Universal App on Lumia 950?
I am wondering how to test a universal app on my Luma 950. Before Windows 10, there was a way to register a Windows 8 phone for development. In Windows 10, there's an "UPDATE & SECURITY/FOR DEVELOPERS setting. I've tried both the "Sideload Apps" and the "Developer Mode" options, but the UA in VS2015 still won't recognize my Lumia for testing when I choose "Device".
How do I get my VS2015 to recognize the Lumia 950 for app testing?
Devenv.exe Uses High CPU with UI Glitches
I've been using ASP.net with C# for website creation with VS2015.
Eventually, after twenty or so minutes or more, visual studio will start using much more cpu then it were prior even though I'm still doing the same thing which is just making changes to my code and testing it via the web browser. After this has started you can observe user interface problems within visual studio. Such as the properties box not showing the current properties for a selected control. Instead it simply freezes on whatever it was showing, still allowing you to change those properties, but if I click on another control, it continues showing the previous controls properties.
At this point you may select another control and press f6 to build the ASP website again and in which case the properties window will correctly show the properties for the current selected control. But if you select another thereafter you have to repeat the process of pressing f6 to update the properties window again.
After closing VS2015 the devenv, VsHub and VsHub server processes continue to run and have to be closed via task manager. I've found deleting the configuration folder in AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio and termination the aforementioned processes restores VS for a briefer time before the problem arises again.
I'll run devenv with the /log option and come back with the file once the problem occurs.
Searching Solution Explorer with Roslyn Source causes VS to restart
Load Roslyn source in Visual Studio Update 1, after load completes type DefaultMarshallingCharSet into Search Solution Explorer box. Wait a while and you will see some results and then VS will restart with no message.
It also happens with other strings but DefaultMarshallingCharSet causes it to happen 100% of the time.

Problem with Starting Mobile Emulators in VS 2015
I'm still having a problem with starting phone emulators in VS2015. They were seemingly working fine at one point, but after several days of not using emulators, I went back to trying to use one and now get the following errors when attempting to run several of the universal window examples from Microsoft:
Severity Code Description Project File Line
Error Error : DEP6100 : The following unexpected error occurred during bootstrapping stage 'Connecting to the device 'A6BAF594-9315-40C3-AD16-F5B8A425A7AB'.':
SystemException - A method was called on an uninitialized object. DataReaderWriter.WindowsPhone
Severity Code Description Project File Line
Error Error : DEP6200 : Bootstrapping 'Emulator 8.1 WVGA 4 inch 512MB' failed. Device cannot be found. DataReaderWriter.WindowsPhone
I also get an "Attempting to modify switch settings" warning message before the emulator fails to load.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on here?
Thanks.

Error installing Visual Studio Express for Windows Phone 8 SDK (Newbie)
Hi there,
First up sorry if this is in the wrong place.
I am trying to install Windows Phone 8 SDK from an ISO file I downloaded from Microsoft. During installation, firstly I got an error about some certificates not being valid which I easily fixed. Now I'm getting the error that " Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Shell( Minimum). Fatal error during installation."
Here's the log file, I can't really seem to find any errors except for that there are a hell lot of registry keys missing in the start of the log.
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=EEABAA7CDCB08F75!28460&authkey=!AGQXZIeRTXERvPo&ithint=file%2clog
I tried looking up for a fix but couldn't come up with something. I'm new to app development at the moment so I can't really do stuff on my own. I'll be really glad if anyone could help.
Thanks
"Create App Service" locks up
I'm using Visual Studio Pro 2015 running Windows 10. Everything is a new fresh install done 12/24/2015. I'm trying to create a new Web Forms project that will be hosted in the cloud on Azure and I have chosen "No Authentication". When the"Create App Service" window displays it has created a name for my web app and set my subscription to "BizSpark" which is correct. The "Resource Group" is blank and there is an "X" next to the dropdown. However I cannot chose anything nor make any changes to any of the other fields. In fact Visual Studio is locked up. Click on anything within the "Create App Service" window will sometimes show a notification saying that Visual Studio is completing an internal process. Even after waiting more than 10 minutes it is still locked up.
I suspect that there is some configuration issue but I'm not sure where to look. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Why online installer packages are bullshit (Like vs2015 installer)?
Because there is no value added IT and no manageability and/or USER XP.
What we need is a simple FTP server and a download manager because:
1- you can schedule downloads (On High traffic or slow links or ...)
2- you can pause download or change a downloads' priorities (maybe something more important has come up)
3- you can save files where ever you want (not just installer cache, maybe different products have same prerequisites)
4- you can see actual download progress and the total size of files in bytes (and an estimation of how long it takes)
and ...
Alternative solution that is complementary to "ftp server and download manager" combination is like this (If you will):
1- Windows power shell download scripts that add downloads to a standard download manager
2- What is a standard download manager? it is a download manager that is scriptable through COM, .Net, CMD (Command Line), or other technology
that can be used by windows power shell
SO WE NEED STANDARDS HERE TO ENCOURAGE "Download Manager Developer Companies" follow it TO IMPROVE USER EXPERIENCE OF INSTALLERS NOT JUST DUMB Downloader Packages
So please stop giving away online installer packages any more. If you want to compete with linux and android beer in mind that
ANDROID INSTALLER Packages ARE DUMB TOO and
linux apt-get install scripts or yum scripts have many flexibillties that these online installer packages do not.
Correct Approach is what people have done. One example is power shell script for Sharepoint server 2013 to download and install prerequisites
(these scripts had their own annoyances but the approach in general is correct; I personally copied files from scripts to download manager :-)) )
Any way I hope Microsoft stop creating online installer packages and do more in cooperating to create a standard interface in download managing business (Something like Microsoft Download Management Interface API or whatever names they like) !!!!
PS: I know, I know, some 3rd parties can only be downloaded but many tools are provided by MS Co. and I Expect them in the ISO not to download them.
AND My Question is can I Expect to get a better Install Experience any time soon?

Annoying Dynamic Font Color Change
In VS2015 in a C# project, when I add a class the using statements change color after the file is created and the code text is displayed.
The dynamic color changing is not specific to VC#, but VC++. Its as if (guessing) VS uses a database to get color values and the latency from querying SQL causes delay. A default color code is used to display text and then when the SQL query returns with the correct text color, the text changes to a different color.
1) Why does this color change happen?
2) How can I prevent the color change?
