My cineworld app for Windows 8 is now in Store and thanks to many of my dev friends, I am getting bug reports and feature requests.
Anthony Wieser just found another bug for me. The app is running and you have two cinemas in pinned state: Enfield and Cambridge. Hit Start and open one of the pinned cinema, the app shows the view you left it at. No navigation to desired cinema.
To resolve this issue, I set the app to debug and then opened App.xaml.cs and as I was putting a break point in OnActivatedMethod, I saw this
// Do not repeat app initialization when already running, just ensure that
// the window is active
if (args.PreviousExecutionState == ApplicationExecutionState.Running)
{
Window.Current.Activate();
return;
}
var rootFrame = new Frame();
SuspensionManager.RegisterFrame(rootFrame, "AppFrame");
if (rootFrame.Content == null)
{
... // so on and so forth
}
this is the culprit. What I should be doing is checking params passed and then showing the correct xaml page. time to fix it now.
Update: Fixed. here’s what I have done 
if (args.PreviousExecutionState == ApplicationExecutionState.Running)
{
if (iCin == int.MinValue)
{
Window.Current.Activate();
return;
}
else
rootFrame = (Frame)Window.Current.Content;
}
else
{
// Create a Frame to act as the navigation context and associate it with
// a SuspensionManager key
rootFrame = new Frame();
SuspensionManager.RegisterFrame(rootFrame, "AppFrame");
}
if (rootFrame.Content == null || iCin != int.MinValue) // the iCin contain value passed in activation param
{
... // so on and so forth
}
once you do this, you can handle navigation params and navigate to correct xaml page.
