Is it possible to get the network strength for both cellular and wifi in dBm for windows phone 8 devices?
I have searched considerably everywhere but unable to find anything related to my question.
AFAIK, is not possible to do this with the current API.
Regards.

Chrome Extension Stats not updating [closed]

I followed yesterday's statistics of my chrome extension in google chrome developer dashboard but there are not any data reflected yet. I'm sure about some installation and impressions.
How long does it take to see the real results? 3 days?
Typically they lag behind only a day. But sometimes there are gaps and delays. Right now I'm not seeing any missing data.

I have a WP 7.1 app in the marketplace, but some features crash in WP 8.
I don't use VS 2010 anymore and would like to take the opportunity to create a WP8 version of the app.
Imagine that I have a user that runs my 7.1 app on his Windows Phone 8 and that he has already saved data to isolated storage. Will he see the WP 8 version of my app as an upate? Will he lose data already stored in Isolated Storage?
No, the user will not lose data in the isolated storage as long as it's an update to the existing app. Make sure you don't replace the old xap, add a new one for WP8 instead.
This is my app that have got both WP7.1 and WP8 xaps. You should see something similar in your dashboard once you uploaded your WP8 version.

Because I"m interested in developing Windows Phone apps, I'm about to switch phones. Having never developed phone apps for any platform before, what features do I need to consider?
I'm worried about some phones being locked down to the point that I cannot do native development. Is that a concern?
What other concerns that I don't have, should I have? Things I would not have known about until doing phone development?
Is there a site that covers these concerns? I could not find it with a couple casual searches.
The benefit of developing for Windows Phone is that Microsoft has standard minimum hardware requirements that all windows phone devices must meet. So for the most part you should be fine with any phone you choose. Here are a few things to consider though.
Most devices have either 512MB of RAM, or a 1GB or more of RAM. If you are planning on developing games and want any phone to be capable of playing your game you may be better off getting a 512MB device so that you can be sure the game runs well on the lower end hardware.
Almost all phones have both a front and rear facing camera, I believe the Nokia Lumia 520 is the only one that does not have a front-facing camera, but this phone is one of the most popular devices, especially in emerging markets.
If you want to make use of any Nokia APIs you may want to get a Nokia Lumia device. APIs like Nokia Mix Radio and I believe the HERE Maps APIs will be restricted to Nokia phones.

I'm wondering how this is typically done at a high level. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I understand, normally you could have some sort of validation. But if you have access to the source code, anyone could see how to send data to the server (or make your own server for that reason). Is there a viable solution for this?

It will install itself somewhere in %HOMEPATH%. Why not in %PROGRAMFILES%?
I've always assumed this is to avoid forcing the user to have administrative privileges.
I guess the most important reason is roaming. So if you logon to another computer in the same domain, you can have it there too (although roaming is not enabled in every domain).
