Is it possible to authenticate with a server that uses Ntlm\Kerberos authentication from a Windows Phone 8 app ?
is there any workaround for this, even If I will have to send some hard coded tokens in the headers ?

While working with Windows Phone Push Notifications, I got myself stuck in the part of creating the "cloud web service" to receive the negotiated URL and retrieve updates to the mobile device.Is it possible to create this Web Service without using Windows Azure services (I don't want to pay anything, I just want to push with my services to my apps)? And how can I create this Cloud Web Service.
I haven't worked extensively with Windows Phone 8.1. Check this webpage for Windows Phone 8 -

You will get a URL for each device you want to get notification on through the app you create. Taking help from the above link, you can create a local server (Cloud Web Service) for testing push notifications for your test devices.
Created a free account on azure mobile services for testing the push notification to windows phone 8. Created a "Registrations" table and able to store the device id and uri channel name.
But unable to send the notification to device. Please guide how to send the toast notification to windows phone 8 device using the registration table.
Thanks

I noticed an app in Windows Phone Store, it can restart WP device, How does the app do it?

There is no way to do it using public API in the SDK. Maybe there is some "not so public" API ... or the app just crashes so horribly that the phone restarts.
Anyway, you should not want to do this and such app should never have passed certification.
I am trying to launch a Lync-2013 app from the Windows Phone 8 app that I am developing.
I will be passing the number that lync client will call.
Does anyone know how to do this?
You can try the lync: protocol to activate the app:
Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri("lync:<sip:user1#hotmail.com>"));
We are working on an Windows Runtime and Windows Phone 8 application which connects to a server via web services.
I am wondering how I can add client authentication with certificates to the web service call, as ClientCertificate is not available on ClientCredentials for Windows Runtime/Windows Phone 8. See API: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.description.clientcredentials.clientcertificate.aspx
Can anyone point me in the right direction how to add a client certificate to the call to our generated web service.
Regards Matoz
No Windows Phone 8 sdk does not support client certificate. Please see MSDN LINK for more details.
