I implemented a Windows Phone client which receives push notifications.
What is the max size of the text that I can receive?
I cannot find it on google neither msdn
Microsoft Push Notification Service limits the Nonfiction payload to 5KB.

I want to send a toast notification (from a server to a windows phone), the notification have to be something like "Katie bought you 3 items", but it have to run in different languages, so I can't writte that directly on the server.
The text comes from the server and you can't catch a notification if the app is not running.
There is a way to do globalization writting "ms-resource:label" but it is a fixed text, or at least in the website of Microsoft I can't see anyway to write something more, so with that the max I can get is something like "Someone bought you N items", without Katie and the number 3.
Can I put parameters in a resource? Something like ms-resource:label#Katie#3
where label is %1 bought you %2 items.
Or maybe there is another way.. How can I send this kind of messages in a toast notification?
Thank you.
After getting back the channel URI from WNS, when you are sending it to your server (from device), you can also pass device region and language information along with it. While sending notifications to WNS (from server), check these values against every channel URI to create customized text for that respective user.
I have a question about Push Notifications. As far as I know, when the App starts, it checks if exists a push channel and, if not, it creates a new channel. Also there is an event which starts when the uri is changed. And this Uri gets expired after 30 days.
But what I would like to know is: I want to send these notifications even if the user does not have the app running (let's suppose for a long time, more than 30 days).
Is posible to detect the Uri changed if the App is not running?
Could I force somehow device uri update?
EDIT:
I have read this information:
Each time your app starts, you should pass the URI from your push
channel to the cloud service that sends out the push notifications. It
is also recommended that you pass the device ID to your cloud service
so that the cloud service can track to which devices the URIs are
assigned. If a URI changes, then the cloud service can replace the old
URI for that device ID. Windows Phone does not provide a framework to
do this, since in most scenarios apps and cloud services already have
their own protocols that they use to communicate with each other.
From here
According to the text, my cloud service could send the new URI to the device, instead of updating the uri from the client? If so, do you know how could I do this?
My windows phone 8 App requires the end user to get notified or alerted when a destination has reached.
I found some links on how to use service API's, but most of them have only searching the destination. Can we extend the functionality of notifying the user on reaching the destination.
Any suggestive links or API's or code snippets available for the same?.
Thanks In Advance!!..
Subscribe to the position changed event from the GeoLocator. Once the position you get from this API is within a small distance of the destination, handle accordingly.

Nokia has a nice article about all your options here.

I would like to know if it is possible to automatically dial a phone number (911) within an app in Windows Phone 8. Using href I can bring up the dialer with the number but the user still has to manually press dial (inconvenient when in need for immediate assistance).
Call me at +1 (555) 555-5555
Thanks!
No, actions such as making a phone call or sending a text (via the phone's SIM card and not a web service) requires user interaction with the current SDK. This seems to be a security design as it prevents malicious apps from secretly sending texts or dialling premium rate numbers without the user's knowledge.
Can you route me to API's capable of intercepting incoming and outgoing phone calls in Windows Phone 8 and record the call conversation ?
Once Recording is in progress, is there a way to simultaneously packetize these data and send it over to a remote server ?
Finally can I set this call recording application to be auto invoked whenever there is an incoming & outgoing Call ?
Since SIP is not exposed in Windows Phone 8 do we have an alternate approach to serve the purpose (say a 3rd party Library) ?
Can you route me to API's capable of intercepting incoming and outgoing phone calls in Windows Phone 8 and record the call conversation ?
No, there is no way to intercept anything on Windows Phone. (And this makes the rest of your questions invalid).
There is a way to interact which can identify the incoming call,
Example : New Version of TrueCaller application, it will integrate its app with Network+ app of system and then it will possible but its special api that Microsoft (not Nokia) provided to them I try to contact them since last 2 months i will I have good news/ bad news in very short period of time.
Thanks.
