This is an example of a Texture Pack running on MCPE: Windows Phone Edition. Currently the installation process is quite inconvenient. To do this I opened up the appx, replaced the textures inside, resigned the appx using Windows Phone developer tools, and installed it onto my device (which must be registered as a development device). The result looks like this:
Unfortunately I can't post a link since this is a modified appx of the original app, but here are some instructions:
NOTE THAT DOING THIS WILL ERASE YOUR WORLDS FOR MCPE WINDOWS PHONE EDITION!!!!!!
First, use this direct download of the game's appx (directly from the appstore, not pirated and not hosted by me. Windows Phone requires that you have bought the app to install it) Open this appx in 7zip, and move all the files inside to a folder called MCPE TP. Modify the things is the data/ folder (this includes textures, etc). Now to proceed, make sure you are on Windows 8.0, 8.1, or 10 (Tech preview), and make sure you have Microsoft Visual Studio Express for Windows installed (this should come with the Windows Phone SDKs). Now if you have this done, go to a command line and run this command:
Now make sure your device is registered to be a development device (meaning it should be "unlocked"). Google can help you with this. If you have this accomplished, plug in your device into your computer, open a command line and type these commands:
I was able to edit the appx but was unable to find the texture file. I got in data\images\ but everytime I replace something there the app won't even start. May I ask what file did you edit?
edit: I was able to install a texture pack called soartex but its a bit buggy and can cause mcpe to crash sometimes

Looks nice, managed to pack it into the appx and deploy
but only the SUN changed to a nice round sun no more blocky ...
nothing else seems to have changed...
where exactly must each folder be copied to once extracted?
I see the items are all individual png files, howerver the pocket edition has one items opaque .png with all tiny images on one file...?
