    My purpose is to call web service synchronous, without using asycn and await method.

    You’re not supposed to do that. WP8/Win8 are supposed to be asynchronous. async and await make asynchronous programming easy.

    I have a blog post that explains the Result deadlock situation in detail (though I’m a bit surprised it happens in this scenario). In short, the async method is attempting to resume on the UI thread but the UI thread is blocked waiting for the async method to complete.

    Why do you want it synchronous?
