Creating custom graphs for Windows Phone - windows-phone-7

I am trying to develop a grapher app for Windows Phone, and I am referring to the app in the link below to create graphs of mathematical functions:
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-in/store/app/grapher-calculator/fd1e8989-f094-4b3d-ba87-d76758b8a023
Can anyone please let me know how graphs are created in this app? Does the Windows Phone 8 toolkit support realtime graphing of cartesian and polar equations? If so, how? How are the graphs being created in the app given in the above URL?

Multilevel expander View in windows phone 8

I am developing windows phone application and got stuck in a problem where I need use ExpanderView (using Telerik or phonetoolkit) but at Multiple levels (0-5), much like TreeView.
Please share any tutorial if anybody got one.
I just spent many hours in playing with this control but no luck.

Have you checked the Telerik Examples app in the store? I belive there is an example like the scenario you want.
You can download sample code provided by Codplex for windows phone-8 and see Expanderview it's very clear and easy to use.

Live tile inside windows phone 7 application

Is it possible to create a live tile inside our windows phone 7 application? I am asking the similar functionality as in AppHub app "...i'm a WP7!".
Please provide me input, how i can achieve this functionality?
Check out the HubTile control from the Silverlight Toolkit for Windows Phone over at codeplex.
Just be careful that it looks good and makes sense in your app - it's a very dynamic control and you can't see the Title of the control all the time.

Windows Phone 7, get apps list + screenshots

is there any chance, that (after mango is released) the third-party WP7 application can retrieve list of already installed applications ?
Is there possibility to create an application which will take screenshot on background. For example screenshot of mobile main applications list every XY seconds/minutes. I´d like to parse installed applications from that screenshot if point 1 is not possible.
Thanks for your answers...
No, there is not
No, the only way to create WP7 screenshots is from the emulator or with special engineering devices that only MS has

Loading Xbox Live Avatar Model in Windows Phone 7 using XNA

Does anybody know how to access the Xbox Live Avatar from within an XNA based Windows Phone 7 application?
Examples I have found seem to use a SignedInGamer.Avatar property, but this is not accessible from Windows Phone 7.
Is there another way or is this not possible in the first place?
as a side note, I'm using the recent Mango beta 7.1 SDK
Thanks!
It's not available in code unless you have the elevated privileges of access to XBox live.
You can, however get an image of your avatar from the web. try:
http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/XXXXXXX/avatar-body.png
where xxxxx is the XBox account name. e.g. http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/kris/avatar-body.png
My understanding is they are only available to partners. See this post for more information:

However, it looks like you can demo them, here's a quick tutorial on using them:

Does windows phone 7 have a similar component likes UITableview in iPhone?

Does windows phone 7 have a similar component likes UITableview in iPhone?
I am trying to find an api mapping published by Microsoft, but to no avail.
I welcome any comments.
Your best bet would be to bind the data to a ListBox.
Here is an example.
You may be interrested in http://windowsphone.interoperabilitybridges.com/
It includes details on getting up to speed on Windows Phone 7 development for people familliar with developing for other platforms. (Including iOS.)
Tim is correct that you will most likely end up using a ListBox, but here is a bit of a longer answer:
I believe you are referring to the iOS to Windows Phone API mapping tool, which helps map common iOS APIs to their Windows Phone equivalents. Unfortunately in this case it will not provide a direct answer to your question, as iOS and Windows Phone take different approaches to the UI layer:
Apple enforces a strict MVC pattern on each of its views. In fact, they provide a set of base view controller classes which already support much of the behaviors you see in typical iPhone applications. The most common of these include UITableViewController, UINavigationViewController, UITabBarController and the standard UIViewController.
Windows phone 7 does not require you to use an MVC pattern, and therefore does not include the standard views that are available in iOS. Instead it is left up to you to choose and implement whatever UI pattern that you choose. Many choose the MVVM Pattern, but even then there are multiple toolkits you can use (This one seems pretty popular).
To start, with most users will just use the graphical designer built into Visual Studio to drag and drop controls onto each page of their application. If you want to learn more I recommend watching the Windows Phone 7 Development for Absolute Beginners series or 31 days of Windows Phone 7 series. Most Silverlight XAML layout and APIs techniques are available in Windows Phone, so 31 days of Silverlight may also help.
