WP7: How to show a toast?

I trying to use ShellToast as analog of the Android toast notification (without redirect). In one of examples:
new ShellToast(){
Content = "HerContent",
Title = "MyTitle",
NavigationUri = new Uri("/Tits.xaml?size=" + 4, UriKind.Relative)
}.Show();
Looks good.
But the toast will not be showed in my emulator. My code is wrong, or it's problem of emulation? The emulator runs in a restricted mode: my graphics card is old

You can show ShellToast only from Background Agent. If you trying to show it from foreground app, use Coding4Fun ToastPrompt control for this

U need to have DirectX 10 capable graphics card with a WDDM 1.1 driver
then emulator will work fine..

Blocking a CALL or SMS in WP7

I am .NET developer and currently working on App to develop on Windows Phone 7. I am looking for something in Windows Phone 7 using which the user can block the calls or sms from a specific number.
Is there any way one can achieve the Call Blocking and SMS blocking in Windows Phone 7, If it is there then please help me.
Thanks

There is no way to do this with Windows Phone 7.
If you must have this functionality then WP7 is not the right platform for you.

Marketplace in Windows Phone 7 Emulator

I'm just wondering if there is a way to download some apps for the emulator. The thing is that we're about to start our own application and we want to make sure we're doing everything 'Windows Phone 7 Compliant'. I want to go through some apps and see what / how they do stuff; like going to the settings, animations, navigations, etc.

Chris is correct, there's no marketplace access in the emulator.
The best thing you could do to check compliance of your app is to review the UI Design Guidelines and App Certification Requirements.

Please note that, you will not able to donwload app there, but this code will help to see MarketPlace on the Emulator.
Create a Sample Console App, Add Reference to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common
Files\microsoft shared\Phone Tools\CoreCon\10.0\Bin\Microsoft.Smartdevice.Connectivity.dll 
In the main method paste following code.
DatastoreManager datastoreManager = new DatastoreManager(1033);
Platform platform = datastoreManager.GetPlatforms().Single(p => p.Name == "Windows Phone 7");
Device device = platform.GetDevices().Single(d => d.Name == "Windows Phone Emulator");
device.Connect();
Guid appID = new Guid("{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5630}");
if (device.IsApplicationInstalled(appID))
{
RemoteApplication app = device.GetApplication(appID);
app.Launch();
}
Console.ReadLine();
I got the appid by using ILSPy for Windows Phone Library.
Links which helped me.

No, you can't today. You can check out design guidelines at developer.windowsphone.com.

Windows Phone 7 devices have started appearing in the market. You should plan to get hold of one. I have done most of my Windows Phone 7 app development using the emulator. When I got my hands on a device few weeks ago, I started testing testing the apps and found a number of issues related to performance, network connectivity, etc. Therefore, it is really beneficial to test applications on a real device before submitting to the Marketplace.

Though the question was initially targeting Windows Phone 7, it might be interesting to other visitors to know that the WP8 emulator does have marketplace access.
