using the <Popup>-XAML-Tag with a <TextBox> inside is working fine. (same XAML Code on Windows and Windows Phone)

I think you should use Content Dialog dedicated for Windows Phone 8.1 Universal.

Just right click on your Windows Phone 8.1 project in Visual Studio and select add new item -> Content Dialog.

Hope I helped.

In a Windows Phone Runtime app (but not on Windows) you can use a ContentDialog to create a full-screen message box with whatever content you need. This can include input controls.

If you add a new content dialog from the Add New Item... menu it will generate a sample template to input an email address and password. Modify that to fit your input, new one up, then await its ShowAsync like you would a MessageDialog.
