I am trying to run my app on my windows phone but keep getting the following error.
Unexpected error creating debug information file 'c:\Users\Admin\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\PhoneApp1\PhoneApp1\obj\Debug\PhoneApp1.PDB' -- 'c:\Users\Admin\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\PhoneApp1\PhoneApp1\obj\Debug\PhoneApp1.pdb: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

Try restarting Visual Studio again, or building your app first using Release configuration and then again using Debug configuration. It will solve your problem.
This is happening because Visual Studio has created a sort of "lock", it can happen sometimes.
Change the debug in the above picture to Release.
