You need to implement it by yourself from scratch. This may help you Google plus API for WP7 using C#, .NET

I have an application built with the Titanium SDK that runs fine on iOS and Android. Now that Windows Phone can be targeted using Appcelerator Studio, I tried to publish the app to this platform. It published and ran but the app looks horrible and behaves unexpected and clearly needs some work.
When I search through Appcelerator's documentation for the Titanium SDK, the properties and methods for say "Ti.UI.View" do not have the Windows supported logo next to them? How do I know what properties and methods of the various classes are supported / I can use? I will post an example link below. It is for Ti.UI.View
http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/api/Titanium.UI.View-property-touchEnabled
Is there another source of documentation I am missing? Does anyone know if Appcelerator plan on updating their docs?
If the property does not clarify anything supports all e.g: BackgroundColor, but if the property supported only some are shown as follows: e.g BackgroundDisabledColor (Windows and Android)
I'm not sure if the documentation is up-to 100%

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!
I'm developing an application for Windows Phone 8 and I'm using the Nokia HERE APIs. However I don't know how to use the "app_id" number generated for me by the HERE Developer website. Even this website seems not to be of much help. Could anyone help me please?
Here is an example from Nokia Developer Center
showing how to use the app_id (ApplicationID) to call Here services.
You also need an AuthenticationToken, which you should have received with the ApplicationID.
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.
I'd like to start work on a Windows Store App client for Spotify, using LibSpotify. However, it seems that I'm unable to use the libspotify dll from inside a Metro app, presumably because it uses parts of the win32 api that are off-limits to the Metro Sandbox.
Loading in my own simple test dll using LoadPackagedLibrary works ok, but loading in libspotify gives error 1114 - ERROR_DLL_INIT_FAILED.
Is there any hope for me?
Thanks

If you are trying to create a Metro-Style-App - you have no hope until Spotify releases an updated library or someone reverse engineers their library to make it work in WinRT.
If you want to create a Metro style app that is not WinRT - based - there are WPF libraries that let you theme your application to look Metro, but you won't be able to sell it in Windows Store unless you work for Spotify and get into a deal with Microsoft.
You can only use the WinRT library in Windows 8 Metro Apps, not Win32.
