Paypal Express Checkout Mobile Responsive with instant update - paypal

I'm using the Paypal Express Checkout NVP (Name Value Pair) API. When I add a Callback URL for instant update shipping cost the whole paypal user interface changes to an older version that isn't mobile friendly / responsive.
When I try to force the mobile UI with "_mobile-express-checkout" I'm getting an Error-Message that I'm using an outdated version. But I'm using version 204 that is the most up to date version.
Is there any chance to get the responsive layout together with instant update for shipping cost?

Collect phone number with PayPal Express checkout

I recently added a paypal express checkout to the ecommerce site I work for. So far so good. Unfortunately our courier company like to have a phone number, and this is not included in the data object the express checkout returns.
I have tried the website prefs change outlined here, it made no difference to the checkout or the returned data: How can I require a buyer's phone number with Paypal Express Checkout?
There does not seem to be any documentation on developer.paypal.com that indicates any other change is needed.
Does anybody have any further information?
Sorted it. You don't get the phone number immediately, but it is available via a request to /v1/payments/payment/PAYMENT_ID via the REST API. Payer-PayerInfo->Phone.

Woocommerce forcing checkout through PayPal Express Payments instead of PayPal Standard

I have a website built on Woocommerce, and the only payment gateway set up is PayPal Payments Standard which comes with Woocommerce. This typically allows customers to checkout using a credit card without creating a PayPal account (and I have it working on similar websites). However, on this site, WC is forcing checkout through PP Payments Express. I have spoken with PP support, and they said it appears to be the site itself vs. settings within the client's PP account.
I have:
Disabled all plugins except WC to rule out a conflict
Tested it using the default TwentySeventeen theme to rule out
something in the theme itself.
Updated to the latest version of WC to rule out some glitch in the existing plugin
Any API request is done through the site. For express Checkout, it seems that the plugin you are using is forcing this. You would need to contact the plugin developer or make sure that any other Paypal plugins are disabled.

PayPal Instant Update for Express Checkout stopped working [sandbox]

I spent like four weeks coding a plugin to work with PayPal Express Checkout instant update. It was working perfectly in the end with shipping and taxes updating as expected.
However, two days ago, the checkout layout got changed automatically from the classic one to the mobile-responsive version. Previously when I had the callback for instant update defined it automatically used to switch from the mobile-friendly version to the classic version. Now that is no longer the case and the instant update features don't seem to work at all with the mobile-friendly checkout.
Is there anything I can do about it or has PayPal stopped supporting instant update just when I finished my plugin?
I have the same problem..
UPDATE..
After emailing PayPal tech support they finally replied..
Unsupported features
In-Context Express Checkout does not support:
Parallel payments or multi-seller payments
Callback / Instant Update API operations
Billing agreements that use the deprecated SetCustomerBillingAgreement API operation
Seamless checkout for a Log in with PayPal integration
So yes, they stopped supporting instant update with Express Checkout, though they haven't removed the documentation as of yet.

Paypal Windows8 Checkout SDK is support for recurring payment?

i'm working with windows store application and i'm using PayPal Windows8 checkout SDK its working fine for normal payments but i need to make a recurring payment.Let me know PayPal Windows8 checkout SDK is supported for recurring payment?.
https://github.com/paypal/Windows8SDK
It doesn't look like the PayPal Windows 8 SDK supports recurring payments right now. If you go down into the API Reference sheet for C# you'll see there is no mention of a property or event allowing an item to reoccur.
Further, the SDK promotes the Checkout.BuyNow API. BuyNow insinuates it's simply to be bought on the spot, which goes hand in hand with the entire SDK being called PayPal Checkout.
Version 1.0.0 went live yesterday and they seem to have kept semi regular updates in developing for it. I can anticipate reoccuring payments being a heavily requested feature so I'd either check in on it from time to time or find another SDK/API that can help you.
Have fun!
