I can run it on local machine successfully but not in the real device (I use window phone and run on it)

You can connect to WCF service in your local PC machine, that's because your local WCF service application default hosed by IIS Express and have a default service address like http://localhost:.... So your client in local machine off course can invoke the WCF service deployed in local machine correctly by add the default address. But when you run your client on the real windows phone device,your WCF service doesn' deploy on your device , how your client connect to the WCF service by a localhost address?

If you want to invoke the WCF service correctly on your real device, you can publish the WCF service and set the right endpoint address of the client in the app and please make sure that your firewall does not block the service port
