When you say "device resolution" do you mean the resolution of the camera or the screen resolution of the phone? If you want the screen resolution, then you can always use the xaml page's "height" and "width" properties to get it. Hope this helps!

See MSDN article on multi-resolution on Windows Phone 8. Basically you'll have to get the base resolution used in XAML and apply the scale factor that the phone is using.

For example:

WVGA 480 × 800 = 1x(480 × 800)

WXGA 768 × 1280 = 1.6x(480 × 800)

720p 720 × 1280 = 1.5x(480 × 853)
