I want to obtain the Passcode protection feature in my app as it is in Wallet App which is already exist in Windows Phone emulator. After setting the pin and exit from the app. Then again start the app it ask for the Wallet pin. How to obtain that view in my app. My Question is whether it is default library in Windows Phone 8 or we have to built itself? if it is default then what we called it how to do access such thing? Thanks in advance.
This would have to be built by you or from a 3rd party - there is nothing in the SDK that implements the behaviour you are after.

I have a unity app built for Windows desktop. Client wants this to be distributed through Windows 10 Store. This is just a desktop app and has no support to tabs or phones.
But looks like with Windows 10 there is no desktop only option.
Is there any documentation on what are the steps I need to follow to submit the unity built app to Windows store?
I did some reading and looks like this is what I will have to do.

But want to get a confirmation from some one who has already done that. As I don't have a Windows developer account right now to try that out.

The steps of publishing a unity app is similar to UWP app. You can refer to App Submissions for more details.
After your packages have been successfully uploaded, you will find the Device family availability section that indicates which packages will be offered to specific Windows 10 device families.
For your requirement, you could check Windows 10 Desktop device option, as the follow picture shows:
For more info, you could refer to Device family availability official document.
I developed an app for Windows phone. Now I want to deploy it on Windows app store and wants to put restriction.I want only specific people will able to install it. How can I do that. Any suggestion will be appropriated.
Thanks,
Well that depends on who these specific people are. You can set age restrictions and region restrictions, and that's about it.
If you mean you want to hand-pick users that can use your app, then provide a login screen where you manually authorize your registered users.
If you mean that only users you choose can download the app, then you can't use the Store; you'll need to use sideloading.
You can control distribution in the Distribution and Visibility section of your app submission on the developer dashboard.
There are three basic options (for Windows 10 - two for Windows Phone 8.x):
Hide this app and prevent acquisition. Customers with a promotional code can still download it on Windows 10 devices
Give codes to the people you want to be able to use the app. This is Windows 10 only.
Hide this app in the Store. Customers with a direct link to the app’s listing can still download it, except on Windows 8 and Windows
8.1
Send links to the people you want to use the app. This will work on Windows Phone 8.1 as well as Windows 10. Anybody with a link can download it though, so it won't truly limit to just the people you want to use the app.
Hide this app and make it available only to the people you specify below, who can download this app on Windows Phone 8.x devices. A
promotional code may be used to download this app on Windows 10
devices
This is the classic beta-mode for Windows Phone 8.x. You can specify which Microsoft Accounts have access to the app.
I am trying to verify a user's phone (landline) by calling them and allowing them to enter a 4 digit code when prompted , thus verifying their phone. Is it possible via sinch ? As per their docs they only support a flash call and that too within an android app.
Or verification SDK does not have that right now (we are working on it) and will launch it soon. If you mail me I can give you some pre access if you want. christian#sinch.com
Is there any api to access the alarm settings of a windows phone 7 device. I am not looking for creating new alarms, but access settings of the default alarm app.
Thanks in advance
Nope, there is not. If you know 7.0 well, you can check out new functionality that was added in 7.1 to see if what you want has been added:

Does anyone know what code to use specifically to jump from within a Windows Phone 7 application to the application's listing in the Marketplace?
Refer to the sample code for MarketplaceDetailTask here.
