Windows Phone Login Navigation

February 19, 2012June 19, 2017 Geoff Hudik

A common desire for a mobile application is showing a welcome / login type screen initially when an account is required and the user first runs the app. My past two Windows Phone apps have not needed this but my current one does. I thought it would be very simple and straightforward; just check some…

Windows Phone: App Config Settings – Thinking Outside the Box

January 26, 2012June 19, 2017 Geoff Hudik

File this post under the OCD, late night, crazy category. I just started a new Windows Phone application and have been working on a client for a service my app depends on. I wanted to test out the service interactions but with unit tests of my WP7 class library, not via building out a user…

Upgrading to Windows Phone Mango Beta 2 – Is that All?

June 30, 2011June 17, 2017 Geoff Hudik

<Rant> The development experience may be pleasant for Windows Phone but the setup and upgrade process could sure use some smoothing out. On iOS I hate having to download and install a new version of XCode for each new SDK release (even minor updates) but at least it is pretty straightforward. I am sure that…

WP7 In-app Searching, Filtering Part II

February 13, 2011June 17, 2017 Geoff Hudik

In my first post on WP7 in-app searching / filtering I presented a quick, first pass solution to this task. Justin Angel left some good suggestions in his comments and I wanted to enhance this feature a bit now that I’ve finally had a little bit of time to return to Windows Phone development. This…

WP7 In-App Searching, Filtering

October 14, 2010June 18, 2017 Geoff Hudik
Update: Part II builds on the below. A first pass attempt Yesterday I was searching for some examples of searching and filtering data in Windows Phone 7. I was a bit surprised I did not find anything really; when I asked on the WP7 Forum, the result was the same. So last night I spent…

Another WP7 Navigation Approach with MVVM

October 10, 2010June 19, 2017 Geoff Hudik
There are various ways to navigate between views in a Windows Phone 7 application. The first example you typically see is an event wired into a View’s code-behind that calls NavigationService.Navigate(uri). How do we navigate using an MVVM pattern though?

WP7 Orientation Based Scrolling

October 9, 2010June 18, 2017 Geoff Hudik
The main home view for my WP7 app has 7 main menu items in a ListBox and scrolling is not needed when the phone is in Portrait orientation. However I noticed that although a scrollbar does not appear, the ListBox was still scrollable in Portrait mode anyway. At first I set the ListBox’s VerticalScrollBarVisiblity to…

Basic Windows Phone 7 Diagnostics

October 9, 2010June 19, 2017 Geoff Hudik
In preparing an error handling solution for my Windows Phone 7 application, I wanted to collect some basic diagnostic data including basic memory use, phone, and app details. Also for WP7 Marketplace certification, an app cannot consume more than 90 MB of memory, unless the phone has more than 256 MB of memory. See section…
