Disable slider value change on tap Windows Phone 8 8.1

I'm working on a windows phone 8.1 application with some sliders for various settings.
I would like to know if it is possible to only allow a user to drag the slider to change it's value. I do not want
the value of the slider to change when the user taps an area away from the slider thumb (eg jump to the tapped point).
I have tried to set IsTapEnabled to false, and I have poured through the slider xaml documentation.
I still cant seem to disable 'tap change value' of the slider. Any insight is greatly appreciated!

How to bind the value of slider from C# code in windows phone 8.1..?

Hi, I want to bind a custom seek bar to the position of media element.
I think from XAML we can achieve it by
Value="{Binding ElementName=mediaElement, Path=Position, Mode=TwoWay, Converter={StaticResource FormatConverter}}"
where FormatConverter is a converter class written to convert mediaElement object to slider value during binding.
But I am creating the media element from code, so I want to write C# code to achieve the above. How to do it..?

You can create the same binding in C# by instantiating a
Binding class and setting its Path, Source, etc. properties. See the remarks in the Binding class docs and
Creating bindings in code in the
Data binding with XAML docs.
That said, the Position updates significantly more frequently than you want to update the seek bar, so you may want to use polling rather than binding for this specific use (especially since you're already in the code behind rather than in the Xaml).

Hi,
Please refer to following article and check if help you to turn off Narrator.
Use
Narrator on my phone
However, this issue seems to be more related to Windows Phone. I suggest that you should post the question
in Windows Phone forum. I believe we will get a better assistance there.
Hope this helps.

IMessage disable after contact changed to non-Apple phone

My friend decided to get rid of their iPhone and my texting always tries to be sent as an iMessage and I have to wait for it to fail before the text message goes out. The contact has the number as a mobile phone and whatever I do, the iPhone always tries to send it as an iMessage. Any clue how to get this contact who previously had an iPhone to just get text message and eliminate the iPhone from trying to send an iMessage?
I am running 6.0.1

How to make backward compatibility of windows phone 8.1 app for windows phone 7?

I developed windows phone 8.1 app which is in windows phone store. Now, i want to make this app compatible for windows 7 also. Is it possible, if yes then how?

It may be that you are using non-backward compatible capabilities in your Windows Phone 8.1 app(s).
Developers that want to develop for different OS's usually have platforms with the different OS's on them for developing applications so they work on each platform.
I suppose you developed for Windows phone 8.1 rather than Windows phone 7. Therefore your app runs on a different framework than a Windows phone 7 has as well as probably newer hardware with greater capabilities.
So you will probably need to purchase an older phone that came with Windows phone 7 in order to develop for. I couldn't find documentation like the last link below (App capabilities and hardware requirements for Windows Phone 8) for Windows phone 7
from Microsoft but maybe you can.
Windows Phone OS 7.1 - Developing a Windows Phone Application from Start to Finish
Types of Applications
The Windows Phone application platform provides two frameworks for developing applications:
Silverlight
The Silverlight framework supports event-driven, XAML-based application development.
XNA
The XNA Framework supports loop-based games.
Silverlight and XNA can also be combined in a single application.
The following table lists some of the criteria that you can use to determine whether you should use Silverlight or the XNA Framework for your Windows Phone application. With Windows Phone OS 7.1, you can combine Silverlight and XNA into one application.
For more information about Silverlight and XNA, see
The Silverlight and XNA Frameworks for Windows Phone. For more information about the application platform, see
Application Platform Overview for Windows Phone.
What's New in Windows Phone 8.1
Platform convergence with Windows Store apps
Windows Phone 8.1 introduces an important change in the Windows Phone developer ecosystem. In this release, Windows Phone converges with the Windows Store apps platform into a single developer platform that runs the same types of apps—Windows Runtime apps.
Platform convergence began in Windows Phone 8, which supports a small subset of Windows Runtime APIs, but which differs from Windows in many core areas. In Windows Phone 8.1, there’s so much more in common—a much larger API set, a similar app model
and life cycle, a shared toolset, a common UI framework—Windows Phone and Windows Store app developer platforms truly have become one, single development platform.
Of course there are still some small differences in behavior and supported features between Windows Phone and Windows Store apps. Some of these are the result of timing of the different product cycles, and they may not appear in future releases. Some differences
are the result of the different natures of phones and computers, their sizes, and the way people use them. We encourage developers to think in terms of Windows app development—developing for a single Windows Runtime, but targeting two different platforms on
phones and computers.

How to change a Windows Phone start page programmatically?

FYI, I know the title is similar to many posts in this forum, but they don't address this specific problem.
I have the following line in the App.xaml.cs file:
if (!rootFrame.Navigate(typeof(Page1), e.Arguments))
When I change MainPage to Page1, it changes the page you see on startup. So far so good. The problem is:
On Page1 I have checkbox so a user can check "do not show this page again". When a user clicks continue, on the button click event if the box is checked every time the program starts going forward it should load MainPage.
I am working with the following I have found:
To fix this you need to do the following in your tutorial page's button click
// Inside the Button click event of TutorialPage.xaml
// Change the mapping so that MainPage points to itself
((UriMapper)App.RootFrame.UriMapper).UriMappings[0].MappedUri =
new Uri("/MainPage.xaml", UriKind.Relative);
// Since RootFrame.CurrentSource is still set to MainPage, you need to pass
// some dummy query string to force the navigation
App.RootFrame.Navigate(new Uri("/MainPage.xaml?dummy=1", UriKind.Relative));
// Remove back entry so that if user taps the back button
// you won't get back to tutorial
App.RootFrame.RemoveBackEntry();
This seems like what I want, but I get two errors I can't solve. Error 1 The type or namespace name 'UriMapper' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) and Error 2 'My.App' does not
contain a definition for 'RootFrame'
I can't find a using statement or anything that will remove the URI error. as far as RootFrame, that is used in App.xaml.cs with no errors. It's spelled rootFrame but when I change it in Page1 it doesn't make a difference. I still get the same error. Using
statements are the same for both pages.
I would appreciate any help or a point in the right direction. I'm using Visual Studio 2013 with the blank Windows Phone template.

I hope I'm not missing something because this is a very obvious solution...
Store a user setting and test it when the app launches.
if(usersetting == true)
if (!rootFrame.Navigate(typeof(Page1), e.Arguments))
else
if (!rootFrame.Navigate(typeof(MainPage), e.Arguments))
That user setting would have to be stored in the local user settings (consider the first line of my code to be pseudo-code).
This works perfectly for a scenario where you have a page that should only launch the first time an app is run or an optional landing page.
I'm a self-taught noob amateur. Please take this into account when responding to my posts or when taking advice from me.

Hello:
We have Avaria 7 sp4 installed, and we have a client that has 95% of the fleet of mobile enterprise with windows phone 8 and requires among other things, disable roaming. is this possible?
I do not see many options available for WP8 compared to Android, is a limitation of windows?
Thank you.

Intensive slider control use may lead to LabVIEW hang and system instability when coupled to event loop "Value Change"

Occasionally, over the past year or two, I have noticed on different machines and versions of LabVIEW (8.0 and 8.5) that intensive operation of the LabVIEW slider control (holding down the left mouse button and shaking the mouse quickly back and forth to move the slider for several seconds) may cause LabVIEW to hang with high CPU usage (50% on my current test machine, which has a Pentium IV "hyperthreaded" processor, so 50% is the max that a single thread can take up). In some instances, after the LabVIEW process is forced to quit, the system itself becomes unstable (more high CPU usage) or hangs, up to and including the need for a hard restart. I have seen this behavior both when handling slider change events the "old fashioned" way with a while loop and a case structure; and also when using a while loop with an event structure handling the "Value Change" event for the slider.
Attached is an .rtf file dump of the front panel and block diagram of a simple test VI that replicates this problem in my hands (using an event structure). The loop count runs to at least several hundred iterations before the crash occurs.
At least for the "old fashioned" loop handling method, adding a forced wait of a few dozen msec per loop didn't seem to be a workaround. I haven't tried this idea with the event structure, but don't expect joy to follow. The possibility of a system hang discourages aggressive experimentation.
Is this a known issue? Can anyone else replicate it (carefully)? In any case, I'd welcome other suggestions for workarounds.
Thanks,
Darin Nelson

Hang Slider.rtf ‏683 KB

Thanks for all your responses, and especially to those who are waggling their mice around trying to reproduce this. I'll respond to (most aspects of) the last several posts in one message.
LabViewGuruWannabe:
I'll see if I can get the original code to post in a separate message, I posted the .rtf originally because I thought there might be filtering on forum posts (I'm sort of new here). But I doubt you re-created it wrong.
The "more modern" test hardware was an Intel Core2 , 2.4 GHz, 2Gb RAM, on an Intel 965 family motherboard. As I said, it took me two tries to trigger the error on this hardware; in the case where it triggered, I was at almost 12000 iterations before things went south. 10000 iterations, therefore, might not be enough--or you might never get it, for all I know. My Pentium 4 Hyperthreaded machine (3.2 GHz, 2 Gb RAM) triggers the hang much more easily (always within 2500 iterations, usually within 1000), so there seems to be some hardware dependence here. Maybe the workaround is just to use hardware recent enough that no one not under the influence of strange compulsions will accidentally trigger the hang.
TonP:
After reading your suggestion, I tried something even more radical -- getting rid of the handling code altogether. I took the slider node out of the while loop, and removed all code inside the "Slide" case of the event structure.
On my Pentium 4 machine, the hang triggered after 677 iterations.
Brian Beal:

Huh, I never even noticed that checkbox existed. Anyway, yes, I
kept the default to lock out the front panel while the event process. If I
disable it… I still get the hang.

How to disable webview cache for Windows Phone 8.1 Runtime universal app?

Is it possible to disable cache for the Webview control for a Windows Phone 8.1 runtime universal app? My App seems to be remembering the information it received the first time. My app logs me into a service and when I go back to rerun app in the emulator
(without completing shutting down the emulator) it logs me in automatically rather than giving me the prompt. This behavior is in the NavigationCompleted handler if that helps explain a bit more on where I am hitting this issue.
If I were to shut off the emulator completely and then restart it then I am prompted for the login name and password again. I have gotten over this cache issue, when I was using the HttpClient in other part of my app, by sending the no-cache in the header
as:
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
Can I do something similar for the webview control?
thanks
mujno

Hi mujno,
As I know currently there is no programmatically way to clean cache for WebView, see Matt's blog:How to clear the WebView cache
However if you are developing an enterprise app, you should be able to invoke some scripts to clean for you, see this for more information:Brokered

I have the new iOS 7 and am getting texts from another family members phone and they are getting mine how do I disable this without changing accounts

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You could simply set each device to only use a single telephone number (settings > messages > send & receive, but this isn't really an ideal solution since the other person can always change their settings and see your messages and send messages that appear as if they are from you. There is only one real solution and that's to have your own accounts.

How to disable elasticity property of list view in Windows Phone 8.1..?

Hi,
I am using the ListView control of Windows Phone 8.1. I am using data binding to populate the list items. It works fine. But I am able to pull the list down from the top( ie..When we pull down the list, fist item comes down and the background color
can be seen, and when released it goes back to normal view). As of I understand this is the default behavior of ListView.
How can I change this behavior..?
It should not be rigid but scroll should end where the list item ends, not more than that...
In shot I don't require any elasticity property for the List

Use a custom control.

Verizon mades changes in the coding and now Windows Phone 7 is having data issues!!!

Starting about 3 weeks ago, I stopped receiving text messages and even worse stopped receiving calls yet alone my voicemails. I have changed not one thing to my phone, everything is exactly the way it was before the issues arised. Now I have to trick my phone to receive my data by dialing into my voicemail... And then what do you know, 30 text mesages, 12 voicemails!!!
The voicemails wont even tell you the date or time stamp (the time the voicemail was received). After numerous *228 and talking with level 2 over the holidays, I see a huge article on multiple news sites stating Verizon is having data issues... Dropped calls, loss of data, no signal while all our phone keep showing full bars and 3g. Verizon stated its only happening on there 4gLTE system and not 3G but thats a load of crap.
All one has to do is a google search of loss of text messages or voicemails on Verizon and you will see 100's up to 1000's of users like you and me all experiencing the same issues. And not just with Windows Phone 7, but with there baby Driod and iPhone as well.
What really ****** me off is that Verizon loves to play the blame game or pass the buck game. Hard Reset your phone and that will solve the problem... Yeah Right. If this was our OS and we updated a driver that changed the OS in the background I can see that being the solution. But for the 100's or 1000's of users that go to work daily, check there emails and text daily, and haven't changed one thing on the phone... THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!
Now I read an articile for someone extermely close to Microsoft stating that Verizon turned down Nokia's new 4GLTE phone because they have no faith in the operating system and I have to think that maybe behind the scenes Verizon is trying to force us off Windows Phone 7 platform with data issue behind the scene and try to get us all into the Droid Platform which they make 50% of the cash off the phone just like the iPhone...
This is a joke, and I am really starting to think about going to ATT and getting the HTC Titan or the new Nokia 900. I have already research a 3 party app that will allow you to backup and restore your phone. And just read that Microsoft just put out an ad for backup, restore and cloud backup programmers for this latest feature.
Verizon the games need to stop, Verizon you need to stand behind this Platform, Verizon you need to provide better service for all us 3G users!!!

How to change the Button content as CamelCasing in Windows phone 8.1 Message dialog

This was already raised in
Stack over flow, While showing the native Message dialog in Windows phone, i cant change the captions as camel case of command buttons. Is this a bug with windows phone 8.1(WinRT) are is there any workaround to fix this issue?
Sankar

This isn't recommended and violates the system style.
If you want a custom dialog you need to use a different control. The MessageDialog always lower cases the buttons to match the system style and is not generally customizable.
If you use a ContentDialog you can customize it fairly extensively, and it doesn't try to fix the case of its buttons. You'll probably want to create your own ContentDialog class (there's a template under Add.New Item...) with your desired contents, but here's
a quick content-free example:
ContentDialog cd = new ContentDialog();
cd.Title = "My Title";
cd.PrimaryButtonText = "CoNtInUe";
cd.SecondaryButtonText = "sToP";
await cd.ShowAsync();
Also note that the guidelines
for message dialogs suggest using clear and specific verbs rather than generic OK/Cancel.

Disable the Copy and Paste option in keyboard [Textbox control] Windows phone App

In Windows phone 8.1 WRT app, I want to disable the copy and paste option in the keyboard for the textbox control
Please let me know if any possibilities and if you have the code snippets Please share it .

Hi Ruthradevi,
As I know we have no way to disable the copy and paste option in the keyboard.
Why do you want to disable it, can you explain more about your scenario? Let's see if we can make a similar function like you required.
