To use the HttpClient in Windows phone we need theMicrosoft HTTP Client Libraries which we can get fron the nuget easily. following is the code by which we can use the HttpClient

private async Task PerformGet() { HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync(myUrlGet); if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode) { // if the response content is a byte array byte[] contentBytes = await response.Content.ReadAsByteArrayAsync(); // if the response content is a stream Stream contentStream = await response.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync(); // if the response content is a string (JSON or XML) string json = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); // your stuff.. } }

Hi Folks, Refer this code for identifying your 2G network enabled or not.

int enabled = Settings.Secure.getInt(getContentResolver(), “preferred_network_mode”, -1); Log.d(“MYAPP”, “2G only enabled: ” + enabled); Where the “use only 2G networks” setting is specified as: 0 indicates the setting is disabled 1 indicates the setting is enabled -1 indicates the setting is not set (some devices?) How I discovered this? I gathered all the key/value pairs from Settings.Secure using the following: ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver(); Cursor cursor = cr.query(Settings.Secure.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null); if (cursor.moveToFirst()) { while (!cursor.isAfterLast()) { Log.d(“MYAPP”, “cursor: ” + cursor.getString(0) + “, ” + cursor.getString(1) + “, ” + cursor.getString(2)); cursor.moveToNext(); } }
