Answer 1

The Header is a new feature for Windows 8.1 . It is not available for Windows 8 apps.

If you want to display a header on Windows 8 you will need to implement it yourself: place the header information in a TextBlock next to your ComboBox

On Windows 8 you will need to put a TextBlock next to your ComboBox with your header. The ComboBox control does not have header support built in until Windows 8.1

        <StackPanel>
            <TextBlock Text="Select Image"/>
            <ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding}" />
        </StackPanel>
