Help Understanding Debug Tokens

So I know debug tokens are supposed to be for developers who want to test their applications, but hey many people use them to sideload apps. I have a few questions I'm hoping someone can help me with:
Why when I create a debug token and sideload an android bar that someone else has signed, it doesn't work?

If I create a debug token, to get a sideloaded app to work on a locked Android Runtime, do I need to sign that android bar using the debug token I created? When you use xsacha's method, you can convert apks to bars and sign them (I'm supposing with a debug token), and everything works fine.

However with JMDxRIM's method how do you sign a bar file with a debug token created using this method?

Thanks

When you convert an Android app (apk file) using a debug token, it remains unsigned. The debug token itself, and the newly converted app (now a bar file) are now bound to the pin of your device, and can only be used by you.

You must convert directly from the apk file yourself using the xsasha/debug token method.

Ok. Are there any methods for converting apks to bars and signing without using xsacha's method. The reason I ask is that, sometimes I want to convert and sign without installing to my device immediately but xsacha's method installs the bars immediately.

Rename the InstallAndroidApp.bat file (or whatever it was called) to something else.
