Universal apps are apps that run on windows phone 8.1 and windows 8.1. To 
support them a lib has to support windows phone 8.1. The target of the portable 
lib must be changed to support windows phone 8.1. This can simply be done with 
visual studio 2013 update 2. I tested the lib with a universal app and 
everything works fine, but because the source code for the specific APIs is not 
available, I wasn't able to use the lib in the way I wanted to.
Universal apps are going to be important when windows phone 8.1 rolls out in 
summer and as a developer I want to get my app ready till then.
I also added a pull request for newtonsoft.json regarding universal apps which 
required me to change only one line of code: 
https://github.com/JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json/pull/261

Will this change is compatible with older versions as well?

Regarding the source of the specific API, you can download it from - 
https://google-api-client-libraries.appspot.com/download/library/analytics/v2.4/
csharp?lv=1.8.1

where analytics will be replaced by your API name
and v2.4 will be replaced by your API version

Thanks for the source. This will fix my specific problem. And regarding the 
backwards compatibility: If only the WinRT files get changed I don't see any 
problems but I can test if the .csproj files still works with vs 2012.

I was able to open the modified project in vs2012 on windows 8, so the modified 
target seems not to influence backwards compatibility.

There is a problem with universal apps because 
WebAuthenticationBroker.AuthenticateAsync(...) is not working on windows phone. 
The solution is to create a #if WINDOWS_PHONE_APP and use 
WebAuthenticationBroker.AuthenticateAndContinue(...).

It seems to be more complex than I thought. I'm currently working on a solution 
and I will contribute it when I'm finished.

Is there any way to start a private conversation? I'd like to ask some 
questions and don't want to spam the issue.

I think that you should write it in this issue, it will help in the future
to see all the history.

Go ahead :-)

As far as I understand, the windows phone 8 client lib revives the callback of 
the Google server directly in the WebBrowser control. This is replaced by 
WebView in universal apps. But the callback from the Google server seems not to 
start a navigation to the localhost. Also the navigation always has a 
WebErrorStatus.Unknown. To solve this problem I would consider to use the page 
title. But this would require some workarounds. So I'd like to ask if it's okay 
to change the callback or if you can help me to solve my problem.

Maybe this can help aswell... The nuget dependency Zlib.Portable (for e.g 
AdSense API) does'nt support Windows Phone 8.1 but has a pull request at 
https://github.com/advancedrei/Zlib.Portable/pull/4 which supposedly fixed this.

WebAuthenticationBroker does not work in the new windows phone 8.1 as it uses 
the old Silverlight usercontrol. You need to create another version of it for 
windows phone 8.1 that uses the new WP 8.1 UI and controls.

Do you have the code that does that?
If so you can create a request to contribute and create a change request, 
otherwise you can just share your code here.

Currently we don't upgrade the library to support 8.1, since JSon.NET currently 
doesn't support profile 328. When it will be fixed we will create a new client 
library.

THANKS,
Eyal

I made some adjustments but there's still some work to be done. I did port the 
existing WP 8.0 lib and it is possible to log in to the google account but I 
can't quite handle the result yet. I started with implementing websockets but I 
had more important things to do so this is not finished. I don't have access to 
my computer right now but I can try to get the code uploaded to visualstudio 
online.

OK.. feel free to do so.
After JSON.NET will upgrade their package to profile 328 I'll continue in
that effort.
I'm still going to support WP 8.0, so I'll have another project targeting
universal apps (8.1)

Because this is an open source project, if you would like to I can add you
as a reviewer for the future code. Just share with me your mail.

Thanks!
Eyal
