Is there any option to open word file in Windows Phone with web view ?
I get byte array data from specified API, and I want to show it on web view in my application.
No
You are out of luck
There are two way you can handle the DOCX files. You create a file and use Launcher.LaunchFileAsync to let the system open it in the default app (MS Office installed on Windows Phone). Or you can try to find a third party library that can display DOCX files.

I'm developing a windows phone application built with Titanium SDK 5.2.2.
I'm not able to save a file in directories directly accessible by the device (like Downloads directory).
I tried to use the only supported functionalities of Titanium API Titanium.Filesystem.getFile and Titanium.Filesystem.File.write, but the only way to save the file is to use Ti.FileSystem.applicationDataDirectory or Ti.File.resourcesDirectory to decide the path where store it.
It seems that, using these API, I cannot store file in one of the directories visible by the device(Documents, Downloads, Photos, Music), and then make them available inside the device.
Can I perform this download in the path visible to the device such as Downloads folder?
You might be able to use the externalStorageDirectory location:

We've had a similar request to expose the Downloads/Documents folder for iOS. I'd suggest to add a comment to request parity for Windows or create a new ticket:

I opened an issue on Appcelerator JIRA for this question:

You can't show those files in a WebView inside your application. The regular way to show those files by storing them in a file and invoking LaunchFileAsync() to hand displaying off to the system. If only one App supports the file type it will launch directly - otherwise the user will be prompted which App he wants to use to see them.
See MSDN for more information
I am playing alittle with windows phone 8.1 app creating. Using C# and phone emulator in VS2013. I have read on microsoft's page that i should be able to see OneDrive in standard file picker (msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/en-en/library/windows/apps/dn263258.aspx):
Use the built-in Windows features.
Whenever possible, use the Windows features and UI to host or interact
with OneDrive. For instance, use the file picker provided by the
Windows.Storage.Pickers namespace for opening and saving files. As
another example, have your app use the Windows application data APIs
to save smaller pieces of data across a user's devices.
I am using standard code from tutorial like:
openPicker.FileTypeFilter.Add("*");
StorageFile file = await openPicker.PickSingleFileAsync();
and it works but there is no OneDrive to choose. I have internet connection on emulated device and i am logged in to OneDrive.
Have you integrated your file picker with the OneDrive contract?: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh465192.aspx
You can also use the Live SDK single sign-on feature for Windows Phone here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn631823.aspx This way, your app should work for your testing purposes because you are already signed in.
I hope this helps!
I am building a Windows Phone 8.1 app, and I need to open PDF files from local storage in the app. I have no clue how to do it.
Just able to extract the text from the PDF would also work.
Windows.Data.Pdf API is only limited to Windows 8.1 You can check out 3rd party SDKs
ComponentOne PDF Viewer
You can use itextsharp library for silverlight/windows phone apps.
