I'm new in developing windows phone apps. I've tried using Ms Visual 2013 (WP 8.1) and in the toolbox we can use All Xaml Control, but when i want use Ms Visual 2012 (WP 8) i can't use all xaml control. So, is it possible to use all xaml control in Ms Visual 2012? because i want use Grid view etc. Thanks

Don't think you can use GridView on WP8.

GridView is strictly a WIN8 (Store App) / WP8.1 runtime thing. See minimum requirements here:

MSDN GridView

What you get in the tool box for 2012 is the available controls for WP 8.0 Silverlight. If you want something like a GridView on WP8.0 then you either have to roll your own or install Windows Phone Toolkit using NuGet or get it here: Windows Phone Toolkit Homepage.

With some modification the <LongListSelector> and <WrapPanel> can emulate the GridView pretty well.
