App Certification Fails While uploading into Windows Phone Store..

Hi Everyone,
I am facing an issue from last few days and stuck badly .
Whenever i am uploading my app in windows phone store getting the below error for everytime..
Your app submission does not include a privacy policy. Apps that use, collect, or share personal information must include a privacy policy that informs users how
this information is used, stored, secured, and disclosed. See policy 10.5.1 for details about the requirements for a privacy policy.
Please let me know what i need to do to resolve the above issue. What step i need to take..

As part of the submission process (Upload and describe your package) there is a section where you can add a privacy policy. It is a step you need to do

How to publish Windows Phone 8.1 Silverlight app to Windows Phone store?

I created Windows Phone 8.1 Silverlight app, and I can't to upload it into WP store. I want to use Create
App Packages tool in Visual Studio 2013 Professional, but it's impossible for Silverlight apps. I read many guides
on dev.windows.com. It's necessary to upload only .appx, .appxbundleor .appxupload files,
but I have .xap file
only in Bin\ARM\Release folder.
May anyone help me?

Appx packages are only for Windows Runtime apps. Windows Phone Silverlight apps use xap files. The Windows Phone Store will accept either xap (for Silverlight) or appx (for Runtime) apps.
I discussed this in more detail in my blog entry: Why can’t I create an app package? Windows Phone Xap vs. Appx

App not appearing in search result in Windows Phone Store

Hi everyone,
Our app has been published to Windows Phone Store. We can find the app by following the direct link to the app (http://bit.ly/Te6itF), but cannot find it by searching on Windows Phone Store. The app is published to Public
Store and is not hidden.
What can we do to solve this?
Thanks.

Same for me. I released my application almost 10 days ago. It was normal. It was appearing in search result. But
4 days ago I've uploaded a new update for it. Now this is not appearing in search result. I also tried it by
its name and my publisher name. But not. I've not hide it from store, its visible and published. However I'm only able to find this by direct link (http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=63530408-d242-485a-b0da-7d4872f8d4c6)
only. I also can't find it through my another application (by opening application in store and click on more application by this developer). Please help me.

App successfully passed certification to be included in the Windows Phone Store., still not showing in the store .

I have received notification that my app has successfully passed certification to be included in the Windows Phone Store. But I don't find
it in store with public link . Can you tell me why it is not found on the market ? . How do I fix it ?

Whether or not there is a problem at the moment is beside the point. Whether there is a problem or not, the usual publication time varies from ~1 hour to several days. If an app is not on the store within a couple of hours it's still within the normal
timeframe; if it's not in the store after 3 or 4 days there may be an issue.
I don't know why there are so many posts from people expecting their app to be live in the store the minute they get an email. Microsoft need to do a better job of advising developers of the publication process.
Your problem is not the same as OP's, and neither is the updating issue you linked to.
I'm a self-taught noob amateur. Please take this into account when responding to my posts or when taking advice from me.

Level of local SQLCE/other DB support in windows phone 8.1/using linq to sql from dll?

I have had a mixed opinion for SQLCE support in windows phone 8/8.1. Is their still support for a local SQLCE or other database in windows phone 8.1? (A lot of different blog articles created their own handlers it appears and one used
an visual studio app called SQLmetal) I am hoping to at least figure out the libraries to use for Linq to SQL in windows phone 8.1 in order to access a local Database. I only need to retrieve data from a simple Database with one -
two tables and one of the tables has three fields.
I wish to access the local DB from a dll file even if I have to use Linq to SQL. The reason for this is to store data for a simple game while the app is running. However, I may need to send data to the database and would like to separate that
from the main application if possible. The only other question is: how do I add local database support to a dll file in windows phone 8.1? (This is my main objective but I need to know my database options first)

Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 apps can still use LINQ to SQL (System.Data.Linq) see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh202860(v=vs.105).aspx
For Windows Phone 8.1 [runtime] app you would need to use an external library like
SQLite
There is a jumpstart training talk on using SQLite in Windows Phone 8.1 apps here:
http://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Building-Apps-for-Windows-Phone-8-1/19
I'm not sure what you mean by: "...access the local DB from a dll file..." Do you mean you want the library used to access the database to be portable across
platforms?

I saw the first link and I think I have already been through some of that tutorial on channel 9 already.
I'm not sure what you mean by: "...access the local DB from a dll file..." Do you mean you want the library used to access the database to be portable across platforms?
This would be a yes. I need use it to submit an application to the store (I wish to have the data and business logic in the dll file while having the GUI separate). I am currently using the portable dll but if you think using another dll type would help
I will try that. I am a VB.NET programmer and so I can see where some programmers get their worries about SQLCE (It seems a lot of VB and VB.NET programmers like it from my time helping on the VB.NET forums second to SQL Server only).

Nevermind, I changed the dll type to "Silverlight" and I can use the System.Data.Linq reference at least.

I am converting existing wpf application to Windows phone 8 app using visual studio 2013

i want to replace the xmltextreader for windows phone 8 project ????
as we dont have xmltextreader.whitespacehandling...... how to replace this for windows phone project.....
and i am getting some more error like 'system.net.sockets.socket' doesnot contain a defination for 'beginconnect' and no extension method 'beginconnect' accepting a first argument........

Hi sagaradi,
>> So now i want to target that application to windows 8.1 store and Windows phone 8.1
For the exception about "System.net.sockets.socket doesnot contain a defination for 'BeginAccept' and no extension mehod 'BeginAccept' accepting a first argument of type 'system.sockets'cuold not be found",
it is because that System.Net.Sockets is not available in Windows Phone Runtime app, we have to use the
Windows.Networking.Sockets for instead, for more information, please try to refer to:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23477961/cannot-find-system-net-sockets-assembly-for-wp-8-1 .
For others exceptions, since I do not have your code, it will be hard to tell. But although WPF/Windows Phone/Windows Store are all XAML-based platforms, they still have a lot of difference among them. Some API which are available in the WPF
may be not available in the Windows Store and Windows Phone. So please pay attention on it, for more information, please try to refer to the following article:

Visual studio 2013 update 2 windows 8 windows phone 8 app

hi
i am using
Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64 bit os
Visual studio 2013 Update 2
I want know how to create Windows 8 app and Windows phone 8 app how to create , its showing only 8.1 templates
please Help Me someone

Hello,
Welcome to MSDN forum.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses
the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
As far as I know, in order to develop windows phone 8 app, you need to install Windows Phone 8.0 SDK. If no help, I suggest you conuslt your issue on windows phone development forum for better support like this thread:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/96f5d84c-d6af-4de9-bfb6-d86b516ab9af/how-to-target-wp-80-from-visual-studio-2013-with-update-2-rc?forum=wpdevelop

Windows Phone Store positioning

So, I've made a slots game
http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=3f90739d-6e32-4b5f-8d9a-216104dbc304 , but because it's positioned so far down in the app store, hardly anyone has played it. Page two if you search the windows phone store and it doesn't show up at all if you search
for 'slots' on the phone itself.
I was hoping that, if customers liked my game, then they would give it good reviews and it would climb higher in the charts. But this is not going happen if the game doesn't even show up in search. Even worse, games which aren't actually slots
games rank higher in a search for 'slots', eg 2 Trucks, Jump Car for WP, Bingo Star and 4 in a Row. I'm sure they're all worthy titles, but why are they showing up in a search for slots?
Anyway, any tips for improving my positioning would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I don't think it's possible to have a name for two different apps. When you try to associate your app with the name you have reserved it'll not let you have a name which is being already reserved.
Happy Coding!

Racial discrimination exists in the Windows Phone store

Racial discrimination issues in the Windows Phone store kill my game.
My game suddenly disappeared in New + Rising list (Windows Phone Store)
Just a few hours before my game (250k - Chef's Burger). Was listed around 2th place in New and rising, now I can not even find it in the list, it seems that the app has dropped out of the list completly What happend ?
In fact, the problem is only in the US/UK Store, or other English-speaking countries Store. In Asia market, such as Taiwan, China, the problem does not exist, our games are still in New + Rising list.
I have reason to suspect microsoft for developers in different regions have different rules. If this is true, Windows Developer team should be ashamed, this is a racial discrimination, is shameful and unfair.
Our team is so disappointed. Even if we are not registered in the US, we still try our best to develop high quality apps and games for Microsoft Windows Phone Platform. If Windows Store want to become successful in the future, please treat every developer
with equality.
Microsoft killed my growing children.

Thanks for pvdg42's help.
Hi Dhiraj Sakariya,
Like the link provided by pvdg42, if you create a Windows Phone Silverlight project, you would get the option to select the Windows Phone OS version like this screen shot.

How to write and check log for windows phone enterprise app

We have developed a windows phone enterprise app for our customer, this app will be deployed thorough MDM solution, that is , being installed automatically after the device sucessfully enrolled into the MDM server.
Our customer required that if this app failed, there should be some log file they could send to us for identify the cause.
So we catch exception in the app and write the exception message into IsolatedStorage as log file , as following:
var appStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
using (writer = new StreamWriter(appStorage.CreateFile("errlog.log")))
writer.WriteLine(format, arg);
writer.Close();
There seemed no problem to write the log with above code. but the problem is , how can the user get the errlog.log to send to us? I tried both Windows phone power tool and IsoStoreSpy tool, they both seemed
not able to read the isolatedstorage for the application to get errlog.log due to this application not installed by themselves.
Any suggestions?
Many Thanks
Jennifer

The easiest way I see to achieve this goal is to provide a feedback page, search on app local storage to find the log file, ask the end user to click button to submit any feedback and post the log file. You can set up a server to receive that file.

How to get the CanGoBack property and GoBack() method for windows 8 store app

Hi Everybody,
I m working windows 8 store app with webview. Here I have two buttons for go back and go forward. But i didn't have default property for goback and goforward. How can i achieve this?

Thanks Rob Caplan
Actually I want solution for XAML.
I achieve this by using list and maintaining the the current item position of current URL.
See the Sample code:
In webview loadingcomplete event track the url navigations
private int _bacListPositionElevate = -1;
webView.LoadCompleted += (object s, NavigationEventArgs e) =>
_currentUri = e.Uri;
if (_currentUri != null)
if (_currentUri != elevateNavigationStack[_bacListPositionElevate])
elevateNavigationStack.Add(_currentUri);
_bacListPositionElevate++;
Now in the back button decrease the position like this:
_bacListPositionElevate--;
webView.Navigate(elevateNavigationStack[_bacListPositionElevate]);
BackButton.IsTapEnabled = (_backStackPositionElevate != 0);
FrwdButton.IsTapEnabled = (_backStackPositionElevate < elevateNavigationStack.Count - 1);
Now in the forward button increase the position like this:
_bacListPositionElevate++;
wvElevate.Navigate(elevateNavigationStack[_bacListPositionElevate]);
imgElevateBack.IsTapEnabled = (_backStackPositionElevate != 0);
imgElevateFwrd.IsTapEnabled = (_backStackPositionElevate < elevateNavigationStack.Count - 1);
