Hey I am looking to make a windows 8 phone app that has a tile look and feel. I am not interested in making it pined to the start screen. I want an app that has it's own functionality in the tiles. Does anyone know how to make that layout - could someone point me in the right direction?
microsoft.phone.controls.toolkit dll supports a control named hubtile.
"The latest version of Silverlight for Windows Phone Toolkit provides Windows Phone HubTile control. This control can make your application stylish by adding animated tiles in it. HubTile can consist of an image, title, message or a notification. In this example we will represent HubTile in two different ways, Static HubTile and Dynamic HubTile".

I want to capture the rotate gesture of an object in my Windows Phone app and animate the object to show that it has roatated.
I saw that WP7 doesn't give this gesture by default and i dint get the same in Toolkit as well. Can anyone help me get started.
You could try using the Multitouch behavior for the Windows Phone.
The tool kit is available here:

Is it possible to change Application Icon, Splash screen etc through code, My requirement is i need to change these items after reaching a specific date say (jan-21-2012). Is there any provision present change these contents through code?
No, you cannot change these through code. These components of your application are specified via the manifest file. Regarding the Application Icon, you can have a 'live tile' for your application which is dynamic and can be changed. See MSDN:
How to: Create, Delete, and Update Tiles for Windows Phone
Maybe this blogpost about the dynamic splashscreen can help you?
http://windowsphonegeek.com/articles/All-about-Splash-Screens-in-WP7-ndash-Creating-animated-Splash-Screen
I don't think you can change the application icon this way. Do you have to change the icons multiple times through the year? Or is it one rebranding action? In that case i would suggest submit it with the new icons/splashscreen to the marketplace when you want it to change.
Here there are couple of articles about changing Splash screen:
Creating Animated Splash screen in Windows Phone7
Windows Phone 7 better Splash screen
You can extend techincs from articles above and implement your functionality.
Regarding to "Icon" use well known WP feature - Live Tiles (nice links in answers above).
I want to create my custom pin Start Button to win phone 7.
For example in windows phone 7 i have the button of Marketplace pinned. When i receive update the pin button shows the number of updates i received.
Another example is the calendar, when i create some appointment, these appears in pin button.
I want create something similar. I want a big pin button with some information. Any direction?
The answer to this will probably depend on whether you are targeting Mango or not.
If you are targeting v 7, you will need to look into Notifications. This MSDN article will give you some good information as a starting point.
In Mango (7.1) you can accomplish a lot more manipulation of tiles from inside your app. This MSDN article is a great start point for that.
Please note, however, that your user will need to have the application tile pinned in order to get the behaviour you are describing.
Is there a way to display a browser control over the top of an XNA game on Windows Phone 7?
Basically I need to display some HTML, and then allow the user to return to the game.
So it can be full-screen if need be. It could even involve switching to Internet Explorer, if there's a way to return to the game from IE?
Is this possible?
It was announced that XNA and Silverlight would be available together in the same app starting with Mango update.
That might allow you to get what you're after.
I am not certain It would be nice if we could pop an html screen like we do on the iPhone. I know if you embed an url you can open ie. but as far as I know you can only get back to your game via the hardware back button.
You are not able to directly display HTML content in your XNA application due to the differences in the UI core. You are able, however, to invoke the WebBrowserTask. All you need to do is add a reference to Microsoft.Phone and then add a using statement for Microsoft.Phone.Tasks.
