Description

When trying to deploy with cordova CLI on WP7 device (should be similar on WP8 but I haven't tested) and if the maximum number of developer applications on the phone has been reached, it fails silently (it says the device hasn't been found) and tries to deploy on the emulator.

If I try to deploy with Visual Studio, an error message "The maximum number of developer applications on this phone has been reached" is displayed.

The cordova CLI should display this message to inform the user why it can't deploy on the device (instead of pretending the device is not connected).
