I know how to use the various tasks/launchers in Windows Phone to share a link or status on twitter, etc. However, is there anything built into the Windows Phone 8.x API to create a sharing screen like the one shown in the image below?
I've seen this same screen in both native Windows Phone apps (e.g. when tap-n-hold to share an app in the app list) as well as 3rd party apps (e.g. IMDB). Seeing this, I'd like to think this is available to be used by custom apps
Can anyone tell me if this exists as a shared component/API? If not, does anyone have some sample code for creating the page dynamically?
Ok, it turns out there is an API (via the Share Contract) in Windows Phone for this. It is called DataTransferManager.ShowShareUI and you can find out more information about it here.
Unfortunately, there is not others shared component/API (I also try to find it).
But by using Launchers you help provide a consistent user experience throughout the Windows Phone platform, so users already know "how to share".
Is it possible to get the unique ID of an NFCTag with Windows Phone 8.1? The documentation is very confusing and i can't find any information about it.
No. There's no way of getting this.
Windows Phone doesn't expose low level enough APIs.
I'm trying to get information from a HID supporting device in a windows 8.1 app. My app is capable of finding the device, when I do a DeviceInformation.FindAllAsync(deviceSelector) the device is in the list.
But when I try to get a handle to the device using HidDevice.FromIdAsync, it returns null
How do I debug this issue to hopefully find the reason for getting a null reference back and not a HidDevice instance?
I've validated the following things already
The device supports HID as I'm capable of connecting and reading from
it using a winforms application and a generic hid driver
VendorId, ProductId, UsageId and UsagePage are correct otherwise it
could not be listed in the find all I assume
The same values have also been specified in the app manifest
capabilities
The device is using built in drivers (I'm aware that 8.1 can't do
supplier provided drivers)
There are no warning or error entries in the operational logs
I get the same behavior when using the devicewatcher, it finds the
device but I can't get a reference to it
Any thoughts?
Just by sheer luck we found the issue.. apparantly usagepage and usage were inverted in the app manifest.
I'm debugging some windows phone 8 location tracking application and I want to purchase gps-receiver and connect it to my notebook for reality test of application with real location data. Will it work? Can the application running in the emulator get these real data?
Thank you.
I'm not sure if the emulator can communicate with the GPS receiver. You can, however, use the emulator location data to simulator it. Take a look at the MSDN guide to learn more.
I am working on windows phone 8. I am new to it. My concern is i want to load data in a list from database.(for example contacts). But i want to dynamically load data when users tap up the screen as for performance. First i need to display of 10 contacts(for example) and when user taps down i need to load it dynamically.. can we do this in windows phone 8.. can we fire an event in windows or do we have any thing in the telerik controls...Or there was any other method to improve the performance.
Can any one please help me to find the solution..
