Sqlite on both Windows Phone 7.1 and Windows Phone 8 - sqlite

Question

I'm developing an app for Windows Phone 7.1(7.5) - 8 (Must work for both) , in which database connectivity is required.
This Application is already realized for Iphone and Android, so I have to use there Database file to the database structure was the same for all applications. Sqlite is used as the database .
All Sqlite Clients for Windows Phone are out of date and not supported any more.

Official client is only for windows phone 8
http://www.sqlite.org/download.html
and is not working with windows phone 7.1
Will be really helpfull if someone can give me any suggestions what i can do with this situation.
develop only for Windows Phone 8 and use official Sqlite Client
use old libriaries for sqlite and try to work with them on windows phone 8
use SQL CE as the database
(PS. : The situation is further complicated by the fact that Windows RT is not support SQL CE and only Sqlite and it makes me crazy.)

Answer 1

I have used sqlite in my app for windows phone 7 as described in the dotnetslackers link and its working fine in WP 8 ( I tested in WP8 emulator).
I don't see any point for saying "All Sqlite Clients for Windows Phone are out of date and not supported any more". Did you try yourself ?
Also this link says "SQLite is now supported on Windows RT, Windows 8 Metro Apps and will be supported on Windows Phone 8 for local application storage."
And here is one more link, which I didn't test.
I suggest you to try the dotnetslackers link and post here if you face any problem. Good luck !!

Note that SQL Server Compact 4.0 does not have a release for Windows Mobile, Windows Phone or for Windows CE devices. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg592946.aspx
You can use SQL Server Compact 3.5 on WP 7.5, but I'm not sure if this version works on WP8.
