I am new to iphone. I am developing a simple application in iphone 3.1.2. Now I need to test it on a real device. But I am not in a position to pay $99. Is there any alternate way to test my application on a real device.
Please advice any other way.
You have to jailbreak your device so that you can by-pass the code signatures, this is how apps are developed for and deployed on Cydia.

I've been sent an iPhone app package (.zip file) that I would like to test. The app is not yet available in the app store and I don't own an iPhone. What are my options for testing this app? I can probably get my hands on a Mac (with some difficulty), but ideally I'm looking for a way of running the app under windows/Linux.
I was hoping to find a website that would allow me to upload the package, and I could then test the app in a browser, but haven't found anything like this so far.
You try what you want, the app code will not run on any other platform then an iOS device.
The best option is the get the source code so you can run the app on a Mac with Xcode and the iOS simulator.
But this is no real replacement for device testing.
Also be aware that iOS ad-hoc app arre linked to device and can there not be installed on device which are not in the profile with which the app is build. The devices are identified by there UDID.
The app you linked is indeed an ARM only binnary and can only be installed on devices that are in the profile used to build the app.
Festivals.ie: Mach-O executable arm
I also took a look at the app bundle and it seems that the app is native, there for you can not simply extract any thing an present it as a webpage. There is no known app to HTML tool available.
In order to test an iOS app the developer of the app must add your UDID to his Member Center under devices. Without that limit everyone could share apps around the globe with no real use for the appstore.
There's no way for you to test it, even if you'll get a Mac and an iPhone.
If not an iPhone, you can test it on an iPad or an IOS simulator... NO other way possible at all...
I had developed an iOS Application using PhoneGap Framework. It's working good and well in simulator. Now I would like to test it in real device i.e iPhone 5 with iOS 6.0. I Googled thoroughly. I have two ways: jailbreak the device (not acceptable to me) or bidding the account in Apple portal.
Is there any other way to test my device my application in real device? Is there anybody here to solve my issue?
The official way is to enter the iOS Developer Program (99$), so that you will get the possibility to create certificates and provisioning profiles required. You will also get the chance to distribute your apps through the App Store.
If you are not willing to do it, the other way is jailbreaking your device, which is basically a way to circumvent the need to use certificates for your apps. Your app would then be distributed through an alternative app store like Cydia (i.e, no Apple App Store).
A third option could be getting in touch with an iOS developer friend of yours, and ask him/her to build the app for your device, so you can install it through iTunes.
There are no other options.
You have to register for a developer certificate in Apple.Developer.Then create provisioning profiles and install it. Otherwise you cant install your app in a real device.

It is possible to develop native applications and load application onto iphone/ipod devices before paying a Apple Developer Connection membership fee?If anybody knows please give me some idea about that.
No, not unless you have a jailbroken phone. You can download the SKD and test in the simulator for free, but to test on a device, you need to pay.
I've just made a basic Hello World app for the iPhone. Compiling and running works fine for iPhone Simulator. But now I'd like to put it on my real physical iPhone, to test it. Is there any way to do this, or do I have to pay $100, put it in the app store and download it (with the chance Apple doesn't like it and just deletes it (what happened to Google Latitude too))?
Thanks in advance.
Nope, I'll not jailbreak it.
Once you have an iPhone developer's account, you can install a provisioning profile on your iPhone which allows to deploy your own applications to it. You'll have to pay the fee to Apple, though.
No. Transfering it to any iPhone for beta testing requires access to the online iPhone Developers Portal. You'll only get in there and get to generate the certificates with a developers licence.
AFAIK you can not transfer your self-developed tool to your own iPhone. At least, that's what I've read...
I have some iphone application that I created. I want to test my application in ipod touch. How can I test my application in ipod touch? Now I have no Apple id my own. If I open an id then how many applications can be tested with that id?
If you have an available solution then please give me the answer and help me.
If you want to test iPhone applications on a device, you'll need to be apply for the iPhone Developer Program. It costs $99 and will also let you submit applications to the App Store.
Once you are accepted, you can develop an unlimited number of applications (and submit them to the App Store) with your one identity.
Get an apple id and download the dev kit. It has all you need, including an emulator and a method for installing on local devices.
