Looping Selector for windows Universal apps - windows-store-apps

I am trying to implement the LoopingSelector for Windows Universal app based on this source.
When I try to convert the app to a Universal app, it seems there is no LoopingSelector control for Universal Apps.
Is there a LoopingSelector control or equivalent for usage in a Universal app?

Windows 8.1 Facebook App Events

I'm writing a Windows 8.1 universal App (WinRT).
I need to integrate with Facebook to track App Events.
I made the same thing in an Android App using the AppEventsLogger.
I added the "Facebook SDK for .NET" to my project using NuGet, but I cannot find any way to track the App Events (like activateApp, deactivateApp, logEvent)
Are these functionalities I need included in the SDK I'm using?
Can I track these events in any other way in a WinRT Application?
Thank you all.

App targeting only Windows Phone

I am developing an app using Visual Studio Express 2013. I selected a blank application(Universal) template and there is no blank template available specific to phone.
Doing so has created an app with 2 c# classes targeting to both phone and desktop.
How can I create an app which I want to target only for windows phone. Will deleting one of the class from the project solve the purpose?
I think You should select windows phone Apps Template if you are going for only windows phone app.
If you're targeting only WindowsPhone, then you should be going with the Silverlight app for WP or the normal WinRT apps for WP.
Universal app is where it targets both the WP and the Store apps.
Hope it helps!

Windows Store WinJS App and LESS

Is it possible to use LESS files in a WinJS application for the Windows Store?
I like how the Web Essentials extension works with web apps and would like to have this functionality in my WinJS app.
Yes, as long as you've got it setup to compile and you add the output CSS files to your project, it works fine. I'm using it in a WinJS project.

Can we use Microsoft.Phone.DeviceManufacturers namespace in official Windows Phone 8 sdk?

Who knows if we can reference Microsoft.Phone.DeviceManufacturers component within official windows phone 8 sdk? I want to develop a background service using ServiceAgent class.
From MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj208461(v=vs.105).aspx)
"This API is not intended to be used directly from your code."
So, no you can't use this for a normal SDK app which you distribute via the Store - this is a restricted API. You may be able to use this in an app which you load on a dev-unlocked phone.
