Infinite circular carousel control for Windows Phone 8.1 - windows-phone-8.1

I am looking for infinite circular carousel control for Windows Phone 8.1. The one that can be scrolled left and right.

You may take a look at Syncfusion Carousel control:

But it looks like they still do not support infinite scrolling, although I have made such a feature request in the past

In Unity, when building for the Windows Phone 8 (UNITY_WP8), the navigation bar on the bottom is not hidden by default

Quick note that I am making this thread as I could find no similar threads or answers and felt the need to document this.
Problem:
When building with Unity 5.2, in my case, for the Windows Phone 8 (not WSA) the game did not hide the navigation bar, with the back, menu and search buttons. This is a problem if the user's device does not have the navigation bar as hardware buttons.
You can then not hide the buttons after the game launches, causing it to always block the lower part of the screen in portrait mode.
The plugins I am currently using only support WP8, and not WSA, so upgrading was not a choice until the plugins I used release a new version with support for WSA.
Solution:
Open WMAppManifest.xml from the compiled solution created by Unity.
On the <App> tag, change the Genre tag to apps.games.
Example:
<App xmlns="" ProductID="{XXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXX}" Title="My Game" RuntimeType="Silverlight" Version="1.0.0.0" Genre="apps.games" Author="Alex" Description="" Publisher="Alex" PublisherID="{XXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXX}">
This will result in the Windows Phone hiding the navigation bar and notifiying the user that they can bring up the navigation bar by swiping upwards from the bottom of the screen.

You can surely use the toolkit navigation effects. But I just want to mention you can create any animation effect you want for any silverlight control with Blend. It has a no-code designer solution for that. I'd suggest to see this page for an overview. To fade out you can simply make the opacity 0 with recording 2-3 keyframe.

Different picture format - Image Viewer - WP8

I got pictures in the isolated storage and i want to display them as well as the WINDOWS PHONE APP does.
I would like to reproduce the same effect that the Windows phone app does when you open the camera roll and you scroll through the images..
I find it particularly difficult because of the image orientation (horizontal and the vertical ones). I fit the vertical ones, but as soon as there are an horizontal picture any fit procedure fails!
Example?
thank you
Take a look at the MediaViewer class in the Silverlight Basic Lens sample. http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/wpapps/Basic-Lens-sample-359fda1b

Screen translation flicker in IPad using phonegap and MGWT

I meet a problem on mgwt development and wanna ask for help here. I am developing an application using MGWT and phonegap. And there will be some animation which will interact with user like swiping a panel with an background image. I implemented it by using Css translation. It works fine in browser(both chrome and safari) and in iphone. I use MGWT to create the home page with a scrollPanel in the middle, after clicking the items in the scrollPanel, a touchPanel will swipe to the center to cover the homePage. This swiping animation is done by Css translate3d(x,y,z).
However, when I deploy the application to iPad 4, the background color(using css) start flickering during the panel translation. the scrollPanel in the home screen keep flickering for around one seconde( I guess it is rendering), part of the items disappear and the part of the white background ground is show. The problem also appear in the touchPanel's content. I tried some suggested solution like hardware acceleration using translate3d(0,0,0) but seems it doesn't work.
Do any body know why? Please help, thank you.
