Answer 1

I try your code, but the LongListSelector control display a list of selectable items with a mechanism for users to jump to a specific section of the list. This is the sample code.

But if you want achieved the effect like ListBox, you can set the template

<Setter Property="Template">
                <Setter.Value>
                    <ControlTemplate TargetType="phone:LongListSelector">
                        <Grid Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" d:DesignWidth="480" d:DesignHeight="800">
                            <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
                                <VisualStateGroup x:Name="ScrollStates">
                                    <VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
                                        <VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="00:00:00.5"/>
                                    </VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
                                    <VisualState x:Name="Scrolling">
                                        <Storyboard>
                                            <DoubleAnimation Duration="0" To="1" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" Storyboard.TargetName="VerticalScrollBar"/>
                                        </Storyboard>
                                    </VisualState>
                                    <VisualState x:Name="NotScrolling"/>
                                </VisualStateGroup>
                                <VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">

                                                <DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Green"/>

                            </VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
                            <Grid Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}">
