I am currently working on my project for Windows Phone 8.1 Face Detection in C#. I have already finished face detection but now I have a serious problem with Face Tracking and extraction of face signs from image. I would like to use for this LBP method, but LBP method in library OpenCV and EmguCV is still not supported for windows phone 8.1 . I also tried to use Face SDK Beta from Microsoft, but it is supported only for windows phone 7. Has anybody have some experience with some libraries or methods in windows phone 8.1 in C# .
Thanks for help.
I finally found a solution. Microsoft released support for Windows Phone OpenCV library : here and

How I can use OpenCV on Windows Phone 8.1 Universal in C#? I saw EmguCV but he has only commercial license for Windows Phone. Is possible other way to use OpenCV in C# on Windows Phone 8.1?
Visual Studio's Windows store apps creation libraries allow you to design a UI out of pure XAML, for Windows phone 8.1RT and above, OpenCV binaries are availale, that let you mix code from XAML and OpenCV's...

I am pretty new to the IOT and UWP for windows 10.
Is it possible to read QR Code using windows 10 IOT? Thank you very much.
You can try
ZXing.NET library.
ZXing.Net has a Windows Runtime Component that works in Windows 8.1 apps. It loads in a Windows 10 app too using the WinRT .dll.
Also, You can get it from nuget: http://www.nuget.org/packages/ZXing.Net
I'm adding a blog post that demos a simple Windows Phone 8 app for performing QR code scanning using ZXing.Net.Mobile

I hope that supports your question.
I've got a small app that was built and shipped for Windows Phone 8.0. I need to publish a small update and I'm encountering all sorts of IDE bugs & missing classes/types when upgrading to VS2015/WP8.1 platform.
So, I'd like simply to keep the app at WP 8.0 but:
Question 1: Will this app run on WP 8.1 and Windows 10 phones?
Question 2: Will Microsoft's app store let me publish this update despite target platform being 8.0?
Firstly, Microsoft provides awesome backward compatibility when it comes to running your old OS apps on new devices. As per your question,
Yes, all your apps that were built to target windowsphone 8.0 OS will run successfully with no issues on all latest windows supported MOBILE devices.
I have tested my old Windowsphone 8.0 OS apps on latest windows 10 preview without any issues.
You can easily support your app with new updates based on windowsphone 8.0 OS. You will have no problem submitting your ( .xap ) packages on the new Windows 10 dashboard.
A large portion of windowsphone mobile devices ,the old lumias still don't have windows 10 yet so there is still a market for your apps. You don't have to consider your apps dead just because you belong to an older OS version.
You're encountering these missing types because Windows Phone 8.0 apps are written in Silverlight and Windows Phone 8.1 (on VS 2015) and Windows 10 are Windows Runtime apps. This is a different API, so some types are moved to other namespaces (most likely for small apps) or completely missing.
Your app should still run on WP 8.1/10 devices, although they might not scale perfectly to the newest screen ratios and will miss access to the newest features of these platforms.
For extra help on getting your app packaged and published, check this reply on another SO question.

Can a Android Hybrid App with some plugins written in Java and others imported from Cordova, be made windows phone complaint using Xamarin ?
Is there any such feature in VS 2015 from which conversion of android app to windows be made possible without much rework. Please help.
No. Xamarin will not allow you to automatically convert an app from one platform to another.
Microsoft has announced Project Astoria as part of Windows 10. This will enable Android apps to run as Windows Universal apps.

No you cannot.
There are two ways to port Java code to C#.
The first way is to port the code manually.
The second porting methodology is to try and automate the process by using a code converter.
