Emulators Providing Different Results

Question

I am developing an application on windows phone with version 7.1 set as my target build. The problem i am having is that one of the listviews in on of my pages refus to display.

I have debugged to ensure the list gets parsed with contents inside of it . Also the application runs fine when i use a windows 8 emulator. But the same technique used in populating other listviews in other pages of the application work fine on all emulators aprt from this single page that does not display.

I even tried to set the colour of the binding stack panel to see if it will show up and it does but without any content. I am really confused and my code is very perfect. I wonder if any one has seem this issue before with windows phone emulators?

        if (e.Error != null)
        {
            //MessageBox.Show(e.Error.InnerException.Message + "\n Ensure You Have A Working Internet Connection");                
            return;
        }
        doc.LoadHtml(e.Result);
        String noCountdown = "<div><span>Sorry no buses are expected within 30 minutes of this stop.  Please try again later or go to www.tfl.gov.uk</span></div>";

Answer 1

Try setting your class access specifier which you use to bind to public and give it a try. Let me know if it works.

For ex:

public class Bindingclass
{
public string Name{get;set;}
}

Answer 2

1. Try using Expression Blend and also delete your previous solution file and build a new solution.
2. Also set the build action property properly for all pages.
3. Update your SDK to 7.8 version. You will get multiple choices for Emulators - Emulator 7.1 (256 MB), Emulator 7.1 (512 MB), Emulator 7.8 (256 MB), Emulator 7.8 (512 MB). Test it on all these versions and check output on each Emulator type.

I hope at least one of these helps you get things get working. Let us know.
