Configuring your Windows Phone Application after updating to Windows Phone Developer Tools CTP April Refresh update
Well, this is another small piece of advice, something I ran into when I was about to start working on my Windows Phone application after I performed an update to the Windows Phone Developer Tools CTP April Refresh. When I opened my project I was prompted to update my WMAppManifest.xml file with the following:
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_NETWORKING” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_LOCATION” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_SENSORS” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_MICROPHONE” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_MEDIALIB” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_GAMERSERVICES” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_PHONEDIALER” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_PUSH_NOTIFICATION” />
<Capability Name=”ID_CAP_WEBBROWSERCOMPONENT” />

This was pretty simple to update. This is what my WMappManifest.xml file looked like after I did the update.

Not too shabby thus far. When I compiled my application the only thing that stopped me was having the Visible property enabled to true on the shell:ApplicationBar tag.

Just remove this property and you should be up and running smoothly after performing the Windows Phone Developer Tools CTP April Refresh update. Hope this helps.
