I am writing an APP using Telerik App Builder. I want to have phone APP call functionality among users on APP.
Any idea/hint on how it can be achieved? do we have any API for this? The App will behave like Skype and the users can call each other? Any API/hint on this will be appreciated?
Thanks,
Vivek
Try using:
call me
This will bring up the device's native phone/dialing features (where "xxx" is the number you are calling).

I am building some software that requires me to display the icons of different apps, and possible save them on a database so I can look it up on demand?
I know you can get the url scheme but is that all you can do with it ? Or is there a way to get the app icons ?
For instance is there a way to get the icon of angry birds via an API call to the IOS system ?
In a non-jailbroken iPhone, you cannot get it from the OS.
You need to query the iTunes service from Apple to get this info ex:
http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=284882215

Is there a way to programmatically activate a Facebook Like on the iTunes App Store for an app using objective-c?
I am afraid but I think you may have to use it as web view from the generated code of facebook developer: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/
I'm building a spotify app that does some work in the background and should then alert the user if it finds a match. I can't find a way to notify the user on the main plane when I have found something of interest.
I'd like to have something like a counter on my app name or some form of notification in order to alert the user that something has changed in my app and that they should come to the app.
Does anyone know if this is possible ?
thanks,

You would need to notify them via Facebook, Spotify doesn't allow you to identify the individual users on the Spotify platform through the api.
Also there is the issue of that your App unloads after 60seconds of the user not being on the App Pane (off in a playlist etc).
So whilst a counter icon that you suggest would be wonderful.
The App Unload-er needs to go away first.

The Facebook API on iOS is meant to redirect the user on the Facebook app (or website when the app is missing) in order to grant access for the like itself. This needs to be done at least once.
In order to gather information about who is liking what you can set up whatever log or backend functionality to the Facebook app that you have to create to activate the like functionality on your iOS app.
