The following worked for me: from here

Download the Microsoft WCF examples. Add the following files to your project from WF_WCF_Samples\WCF\Extensibility\Interop\RouteByBody\CS\service

DispatchByBodyOperationSelector.cs
DispatchByBodyBehaviorAttribute.cs

Add the following attributes to your interface (next to your ServiceContract)

XmlSerializerFormat
DispatchByBodyBehavior

Add the following to your service interface

[OperationContract(Action = "")]
public void DoNothing()
{
}

For my service, the WrapperName and Wrappernamespace are null for all messages. I had to go into DispatchByBodyBehaviorAttribute and edit ApplyDispatchBehavior() to add the following lines to check for this:

if (qname.IsEmpty) {
    qname = new XmlQualifiedName(operationDescription.Messages[0].Body.Parts[0].Name, operationDescription.Messages[0].Body.Parts[0].Namespace);
}
