Upgrading wp8 to wp8.1 silverlight, debugger cannot be launched

I have now had an error with VS2013 and WP8.1 silverlight for a couple of days.

I get a couple of different errors, ..Ensure unlocked screen.., AgHost.exe could not be launched, port is in use by another program and ensure the device is unlocked.

These errors came suddenly after I retarged the solution. I have no compiling errors. Solution Attempts

  1. Restart PC
  2. Restart program
  3. unregister and reregister the phone
  4. reinstall Update 3
  5. reinstall VS2013
  6. Windows Phone 8 Application crash once its launched AgHost.exe' has exited with code -532265403
  7. Install VS2015 with no luck.
  8. reinstall VS2013 Update 4

Nothing worked. The error is also the same for emulator as well as different devices. I can however get the release mode installed. Break points can be used when using release mode, but I have to Clean, Rebuild and then deploy for every time I want to deploy the application. Further the deploy time has gone up exponentially. Before upgrading I used a maximum of 10 seconds. Now it is above a minute in wait time. :/

Anyone has a solution for this ?

Extra

If I run the solution before upgrade on device or Emulator It spins up with debugger. If then go to the updated WP81, I get a popup with info Something is taking longer then normal and then it crashes with ..Ensure unlocked screen.. :/

Could it be an issue with the differen SDKS? enter image description here During a repair of all the SDKs, I found an issue with the event log, which I cleared based on The Event Log File is full

Still no success.

Extra

I cannot spin up the emulator from VS2013, when using the WP8.1 solution, but the wp8.0 solution in the same VS works :S

I found an error in a log file, from:

The errors are:

Anybody knows what to do with this? The error is coming when I repair Windows Phone SDK 8.0

Solution

  • I have no Idea of what is the issue, but creating a new solution and importing the existing projects into a new solution has solved all the issues regarding emulator and debugger an AgHost.

    Seems like the upgrade function integrated in the solution did not work properly.
