I do not have Windows Phone tools SDK 8.0. Also, I don't want to create an app in XAML.
What I want to do is show one url page on windows phone 8 and publish on marketplace account.
My android code looks like this:
String uri = "http://websitename.nl/index.php?device_id=" + deviceId + "&nocache=" + Integer.toString(random);
myWebView.loadUrl( uri, noCacheHeaders);
No.
App policies for Windows Phone, ยง2.10:
Your app and metadata must have distinct, substantial and legitimate
content and purpose.
Your app must be fully functional when acquired from the Windows Phone
Store and it must provide functionality other than launching a
webpage.
Your app must not be unreasonably priced in relation to the
functionality of the app.

Is possible to create a payment via Windows Store when purchased content is a HTML content downloaded from cloud in Windows Universal Apps? I was only able to find, that Window Store provides:
Time trial
In-app purchases (this is close, but with in-app purchases all content must be part of application and I'm using downloadable HTML content from cloud, which isn't part of application)
Ads
So, I'm basically talking about situation, when Windows Store works like Payment system (like PayPal)... Or can you give me any advice how to handle this type of purchases across platforms (iOS, Android, Kindle, ...)?
I'm developing a Windows Store app. In the app I'm using the Groove SDK to query the Microsoft Store for movie titles. I can get the movie I'm looking for along with all of it's meta data. How can I launch the Windows Store app to show the user the same movie as available from Microsoft?
This has been very confusing. I have a Surface with Windows 8.1. It comes with the Windows Store app, a Music app and a Video app. The Video app says "xbox video." I've read that it has now changed to "Groove." I've look for documentation on how to link content but have found nothing.
the Groove SDK APIs will return deep links to content. Launch this deep link using Windows API
Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri(myGrooveDeepLink));
Notice that you will have to add a "target=app" parameter to your uri to launch the app instead of the web site.

I have an application named MyApplication. What I am trying to do is to do deep linking.
I would like to associate a link that when click on my Windows Phone 8.1 XAML, the application will be launched with the elements passed.
For example: MyApplication://item/1234 -> will open my application.
I am trying to do this from outside of an application is this possible? for example if I clicked on this link that was in an email, could it be redirected to my application?
Edit:
Here is part of the solution but i am not finding what i really wanted to do:
Uri Activation(XAML)

You sure can. Create the protocol (something like test:) in your app and deploy it to your machine. Then, in Start>Run type "test:" and your app will load just fine. A link in email? Sure. A link in a web page? Sure. It all works.

Best of luck!
I would like my app to link to other installed apps on the users phone, such as facebook. Once they click the icon/button it should switch from my app to the selected app, the code should check that app is on their phone. If it is open the app, if it is not open the store page, for that app so they can download it.
Is there a way to link or to navigate to the app? or store? (c# and XAML).
Thank you in advance for your help :)
All you need is URI for the app. It will open the app for you and if the app is not available. It will automatically take the user to the store so that he can download it. This will only work if that app has a Uri available.
Here and Here is a list of apps that support Uri scheme
For example, You can open Facebook App by this code
Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri("fb:"));
We are working on a C# Xaml-based Windows Store app.
We have integrated bing maps within the app, but we were wondering if it were possible to launch the "Maps" app to a certain address?
We don't want to implement full directions, so it would be nice to just provide a button to launch maps so they can do it from there.
Take a look at the URI Scheme for maps application in conjunction with LaunchUriAsync, I think it should do the trick.
