WinJS 3.0 Apps on LG and Samsung Smart TVs - winjs

Today i've tried the WinJS 3.0 (Javascript Library from Microsoft) on my LG SmartTV with WebOS and works perfect. But i've a problem:
I' want to use my TV Remote to control de UI. I need to do this from WinJS app? or this is an implementation of the LG HTML/JS SDK?
I' want to do same with Samsung Smart TV.
Please advice
Thanks!

WinJS itself doesn't have any functionality particular to hardware devices. It's a general library that contains UI controls and things like promises and data binding, so anything you'd do specific to SmartTVs would have to come from those manufacturer's SDKs. I would imagine those SDKs would have the ability to raise events in the app that you can then handle to manage the WinJS controls used in the app's UI.

Tizen send data from wearable to android phone and also from phone to wearable

I need to send some binary files via bluetooth from tizen g2 watch to android phone and then from phone to watch, as I've searched it I can't implement bluetooth in js files as said here so what is the most straightforward way to do it? can we use tizen wearable debug over bluetooth instead? is it applicable in this case?
I'm new to tizen so I feel confused and I really appreciate any advice about this problem.
You can develop companion app using Samsung Accessory Protocol(SAP) in this scenario. Please go through this link to know more. If you are trying to develop the tizen part in web, then have a look in the File Transfer sample of web section. There're separate applications for sending and receiving files from tizen to android and vice versa. You can combine those to implement the bidirectional communication.

Building Liblinphone for iOS

I am planning to develop an iOS application where I need to use VOIP services. I found Liblinphone which is one such open source API for VOIP.
My requirements:
Making voice call & receiving
Making video calls & receiving
Making voice call conferences.
Are these all possible with Liblinphone? Are there any other opensource VOIP libraries for achieving this better than Liblinphone?
Any help and tutorial links are a big helpfor me.
You may take a look at siphon (http://code.google.com/p/siphon/).
From their homepage:
Home of the World's first free SIP/VoIP application for iPhone and iPod Touch 1 and 2.
Siphon SIP/VoIP project is the first in his category that works on iPhone and iPod Touch 2 with headset for all SIP providers. It is a native application approved running on 2.X using internal micro/speaker and headset.
The Application supports the SIP standard, preserving compatibility with hundreds of SIP providers and offers a GUI which preserves the apple design of native iPhone applications.

Apportable: is using windows azure mobile services possible?

I am trying to build my ios application for android. Is there any chance to use windows azure mobile services framework in native objective-c code? Or should I use java and call my azure mobile services table items from it ? Thank you in advance.
If there's an Android version of azure, you could use BridgeKit to bridge the android library to objective c APIs.
http://docs.apportable.com/using-java
There are native Azure Mobile Services SDKs for all major mobile platforms (iOS / Objective-C, Android / Java, Windows Phone, etc). There are excellent tutorials available on the Azure website:
iOS: http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/mobile-services-ios-get-started/
Android: http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/mobile-services-android-get-started/
If you are looking for cross-platform development you could leverage Xamarin (C#), Sencha or PhoneGap which all have samples at the above site as well.
If you want to serve multiple platforms a better approach would be to create a service layer which works against your Mobile Service (f.e. build with ASP.NET Web API). This service layer would be called from your clients. The big advantage is that you don't have to write code multiple times and changes can be done at a central point. If you concentrate on RESTful services nearly every platform can call it.
Currently that seems to be a lot of overhead with an already finished iOS implementation, but imagine the situation when you want to support other platforms, such as Windows 8 or Windows Phone 8. At this point you have the same problems again.

Is it possible to run an Appcelerator Titanium applicatin in web browser like Flex?

Is it possible to share code between mobile and web versions of an application created with Appcelerator Titanium? I want to create a mobile application but I also want my users accessing the app using desktop Internet browser, like Flex application can be run in Flash Player or AIR. Is it possible to share code between mobile and web versions of the app?
Thanks,
Michal
There is a beta or pre release version of a web sdk that will support that functionality. Will try and track down the link, certain it can be found on the Appcelerator developer blog

iPhone SDK 4.0 Phone locked tool

Is there going to be a way with the 4.0 SDK to create a tool similar to Pandora(which was demoed today), so when the phone is locked, I can manipulate my app? So basically if my app was running, and my phone locks I don't have to unlock the phone to toggle something for the app?
As kubi said, it's still under NDA. I would look into those API's that were publicly announced though. (The multitasking stuff.) I'm sure it's possible. Pandora did it in the demo, right?
