I have to Swipe the images in windows phone 8 apps without any Panorama or Pivot control.
I am using the Flick event for the swiping images. Images changing perfectly. But animation is not applied which means swiping animation is not coming.
Please suggest us.
There are several possible solutions, depending on the 'what' animation you want to see.
But a good solution can be found here...
The principle is easy, create a pivot control but manipulate it's content by plugging in into the pivot events.

I want to change default loading screen when i navigate between pages on WP8 app but I don't know how to do it.
Thank you
So there is many ways of doing it and you need to address what exactly is your best solution.
So the splash screen is the first place to start, here you can specify images that should be used upon start the app. It is also possible to introduce animations.
Your case (As far as I understand) is referring to navigation in-app. Again here I assume you use Silverlight, and not Win-RT?
For this you can create either popups or change the PhoneApplicationFrame. Popups can be displayed across pages during navigation. This however has the issue with memory leak and low performance, because of the popup implementation in WP.
I would therefore go with changing the PhoneApplicationFrame, you can follow this: Specify Popup location, throughout page navigation

I am building web-apps using Ratchet, replicating the look of native APPs.
Ratchet is doing a great job at replicating the look of iOS, but there is a feature which I really miss from iOS which is the ability to "move" an element to the next page by moving and zooming it.
Example: I have a list of articles. Upon clicking the thumbnail of the article, the thumbnail image gets bigger as the articles open, in a seamless transition.
The following gif. from Facebook "paper" illustrates well the effect I want to achieve:

My questions would be:
- Is this type of transition possible using only web-technologies?
- Is it possible, in general, to have one element moving in a continuous way from one page to another without any flickering effect?
- Would such effect be possible only with single-page applications? (say a single-page website built with angularJS)
- Would any framework / tool (PhoneGap?) be useful in achieving this result
Thanks so much.

What control is used in native Photos app? I need the same experience, can I achieve it with Pivot or Panorama? Maybe its just a rotated LongListSelector?
I think you're asking about how the single photo viewer feature of the Photos app is implemented, right? If so, check out the Media Viewer control that is part of this sample Lens app here: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/wpapps/Basic-Lens-sample-359fda1b
They use a Panorama control, not a Pivot or LongListSelector. At least not for the horizontal scrolling.
Telerik has a control for that... found here
Not sure how to implement that on with the basic controls though
Gallery control gives a good UI in Android os. I want to achieve the same performance in wp8. I find the panorama control in wp8 has almost similar performance but it always shows a 20 pixel on the right side. Also, the pivot control will show a black screen when slipping the UI without showing anything but the background image.
So I want to combine the ability of the two controls in wp8 to achieve the same performance of gallery control.
first, when slipping the UI, the right screen will show immediately to give user a continuous view.
second, I do not want to show the 20 pixel on the right screen.
So, can anyone tell me how to achieve it. Thanks very much.
Just a thought, don't have time to test it at the moment, but would it work in the panorama control if you gave the left side of the PanoramaItem a margin of 20, and perhaps the right side a -20?
I am still very much in the planning phase on this but here is the basic idea of what I want to do. I also have not done much/any web development in the past few years so I am a little out of the loop on what will/wont work.
I want to have a video playing essentially on a background layer with various widgets on top of it. The widgets will all be fairly simple HTML based text and maybe a few images. The widget also need to be movable (eg. I need to be able to drag and drop the widgets to move them). Finally I would really like it to work on a tablet (iPad or Android).
Am I going to need to use flash or silverlight for something like this? I would rather not because I know that makes it hard to get tablets working. I know HTML5 is supposed to be the new hotness but I don't really have a good idea of its capabilities.
Flash or Silverlight will rule out tablets (the iPad anyway), not just make them hard.
I'd start with jQueryUI it supports easily making elements moveable.
