VS2015 RTM. Cannot deploy application on Windows Phone with build target Windows Phone 8.

Question

This was working on VS2015 RC.

Select target 'Windows Phone 8'. Select 'Device'.

Right Click on project -> select 'Deploy' or Click on 'Debug' in toolbar

Error: 2>------ Deploy started: Project: XXXX, Configuration: Debug Windows Phone 8 ------ 2>No Windows Phone 8 emulators installed. Please install Visual Studio 2013 with the Windows Phone 8 tools selected to install the emulators.

Build has been canceled.

I didn't select emulator ???

Thanks

Looks like you get the 8.1 emulators with 2015, which should work for you. See this post: stackoverflow.com/questions/31526579/… — Mike Jones

I want to deploy on device not on emulator. And when I select target Windows Phone 8 - I cannot choose WP8.1 emulator. — ando

With your phone connected, what happens when you use Debug > Windows Phone (Universal) > Device? — Mike Jones

Universal app is deployed and debugging starts. This is not what I want. I need target WP8. Barcode scan plugin is working for WP8 only not for target windows. — ando

It turns out, this error was a bug in the product which is fixed in the Visual Studio 2015 Tools for Apache Cordova Update 3 release.
