Some OpenTok Developer documentation indicates the Windows SDK v2.16 will support OpenTok communication via web proxy, and that this is currently in Beta. Has anyone on the Beta program seen this work, and is there any indication of when the 2.16 SDK for Windows may be released?
Michael here from the OpenTok team.
We are planning on releasing this feature (IP Proxy) to GA later this month. And we just released SDK 2.17.

I am developing an Android app with "Xamarin.Android" to intercept incoming SMS messages. When I deployed the app using the Visual Studio built-in emulator (Android 9 image), the SMS is not intercepted when the app is closed. But when I deployed the same app on Galaxy Note 8 (Android 9), it worked perfectly.
I dug up more details about the updates and changes in recent Android versions and how it handled background services and the limitations on implicit broadcast receivers. I found out that the SMS_RECEIVE is already exempted from any restrictions, so the broadcast should be delivered to my app, even when it is closed.
I rewrote the SMS Broadcast receiver part using Java to test it in Android Studio; it worked on the Android Studio emulator and device.
Is this a common issue in the Visual Studio emulator? Is there a configuration that I need to change?
It turned out the solution was only to update the built-in Android Emulator that was included with Visual Studio.
I was using an older version (28.0.25) that was released last March, while the new available version (29.2.1) released in September solved the issue with this simple update, although this issue was not highlighted in any of the release notes of the stable versions since march.
The current official Xamarin website only supports iOS and Android:
https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/transport-layer-security/
The same goes for ModernHttpClient PCL (iOS/Android only)
So is there anyway we can support TLS 1.2 for Windows 8.1 and UWP platforms? If Yes, please share and provided tutorial with source code
I am using Profile 111 for my PCL
Many thanks!
Xamarin is meant to cover iOS, Android and Mac. As long as you are working on a Windows based platform, you're working with Microsoft .Net. This means, there is no need for any additional tooling and no Xamarin/Mono involved here. As of .Net 4.6 (or was it 4.5 - I don't remember 100% sure) you'll get TLS 1.2 support.
The above is also true if you are using Xamarin.Forms to run your apps on Windows (Phone) 8.x or UWP.
I just signed up for an Evernote API key and downloaded the Evernote SDK for Windows in Visual Studio 2015 (suing NuGet) only to be told "Evernote.SDK 1.25.0 is not compatible with uap10.0".... so it seems it only supports .Net v4.0 which is very disappointing. I had a great idea for a UWP app that I wanted to synch to Evernote but I guess now I can't do it.
In case you're not aware UWP (Universal Windows Platform) is now the standard for developing current and future Windows 10 apps that run across all W10 devices. Can anyone at Evernote tell me if the SDK will support this and if so when? More people already use Windows 10 than use iOS (on PC's and tablets at least) so I really hope this platform will be supported in the very near future.
From the 1.25 version number you mention, it sounds like you're trying to grab the older C# SDK. You can try the newer SDK for Windows and see if that works.
If that NuGet package also doesn't work in your UWP environment, you should be able to grab the source from Github and put that in your VS solution.
I'm starting to develop a player for windows phone 8. I have a login on appHub and can access docs and tools for WP7 development. It seems that there are some differences between WP8 and WP7, e.g., WinRT APIs are used instead of Silverlight for player development. I wonder whether the development documents and sdks for WP8 are available now. Where can I get them?
Right now you only have SDK for Microsoft Surface.. The SDK for WP8 is still not available
the sdk for wp8 is still not available hence you won't be able to get any material for those now.
you just have to wait.
you could still continue to develop for wp7 in the meantime and port it over to wp8 later on when the sdk is release.
You can now download the WP8 SDK and documentation here:

I did a soft reset of my WP7 phone, unlocked it for development and updated it with Zune, but I got the version 7.0.739, not 7.1! This means that I cannot deploy my Mango testing apps into the phone :(
Where can I find the latest update for developers?
You will not Find the update as you have not been given an Invitation to the Microsofts Connect website, you should seek out another Developer's Mango Beta 2 files and install those on your machine, register your phone and unlock the device using the Windows Phone Tools you get with the installer, the Zune software that is in Beta points to another Location for Updates specifically to developers registered before Mid June if I am not mistaken, those all got an invite to download using the Microsoft Connect website,
This is the only way you will be able to get Mango I am afraid, go and look on the XDA Forums as the RTM Version they have is Carrier Exempt it just flashes straight on to your phone,
Please note that the RTM of mango will not be released to developers. The RTM will only be available through your carrier.
The beta version (7712) is available through the apphub/connect.
You need to be a registered developer on the App Hub (create.msdn.com) to get access to a Mango phone update. You can of course use the emulator for development of Mango apps however.
