How do you handle bug duplicates in tfs with scrum template? Do you use the state "delete" or do you first set the bug to "in progress"?

I got some duplicates in the list of user stories too.
I simply use the state "Closed" with the description "Out of Scope", and I add a comment stating that the user story was closed because it was a duplicate.
Sounds good to add a reference to the original item.
I guess something like this can be done for bugs as well.

That entirely depends on what you would try to achieve. I would suggest that you could simply set the duplicate to 'delete' possibly creating a link to the other bug.

You should have an option to set it to a state of "duplicate" from its initial state. I agree with #mfloryan that you should link to the original bug.
If you let mek now which template you are using I may be able to revice this to be more specific.

I need to have more control on backlog....
Years ago, we have created a project using a SCRUM Process... Not all developers pay attenction to use correctly TFS... There are many problems I'd like to solve step by step...
First one... I would like to prevent to close a PBI until subtasks opened exist. Can be possible? I have looked for on google... I have looked for settings everywhere on tfs but it seems it is not possible... I remember that on Jira could be possible... is it possible that Microsoft haven't implemented this option?
Do you have any idea to avoid that subtask remain opened when parents are closed?
Thank you
There's no way to do that. The state of work items are totally independent of all other work items, including linked work items.
The best way to manage it at the moment that I've seen is to either:
Handle it via process: Be diligent about reviewing the sprint board and don't close user stories with open tasks
Write a work item query that shows you this information. Something like this will do the trick:

I wondered if displaying a disabled option in a UIActionSheet was a mistake ?
According to Apple guidelines:
Use an action sheet to: Provide alternative ways to complete a task. An action sheet lets you to provide a range of choices that
make sense in the context of the current task, without giving these
choices a permanent place in the UI.
So I understand it is better to add buttons in some context and remove it when the context changes. Here I'm looking for some experienced developer answers or feedback about it.
An action sheet provides contextually relevant actions. If an action is unavailable in some context, then it should not be shown. So as you ponder, add and remove actions as appropriate rather than try to disable some actions.

I am currently working on a project where - while coding - there are some wishes about the layout (changing font color, changing the texts etc.)
What would be the best category in tfs?
bug, feature, issue or task?
I've read that: What are the differences among bugs, issues and tasks in TFS
But this did not help me on that question
To me, this would be either a Bug or a Feature.
It is a bug if it was supposed to be that way, and was not done.
It is a feature if it is a new idea/change.
After you create the bug/feature, you will add tasks to it as children. Those tasks should be the low level things needed for the overall feature to be done.
(By the way, if you are doing scrum, "features" are usually called Product Backlog Items. But both Bugs and Product Backlog Items go on the Product Backlog.)

I recently started learning to develop plugins for jira. Now I need to create custom fields. I don't know how to name this object.
I want to do something like this:
or this:
How do I do this?
I read the FAQ on the Atlassian website, but did not find this implementation. I don't know if it is possible to do so.
Sounds like a custom field to me. The buttons and text area come from the Velocity template file for the view and edit actions on a field. You'll also need to decide what you want to store in the backend database. My O'Reilly book "Practical JIRA Plugins" has more detail on this, or work through the example at https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/How+to+create+a+new+Custom+Field+Type

I'm looking for a good solution for getting a list of states in a country.
I dnt think there is an easy way to retrieve this.. you need to target set of countries that your product will cater and build up the states list for those countries (google should be able to help you with that) and for others make the state field an user input field.
I am not sure if anybody would be interested in sharing data that they already have with them.
I believe it's good idea to check these questions:
How to get the state,country list in ios
iOS - is a user in the United States?
this one ins't for iOS but can be useful too:
Where can I get a list of Countries, States and Cities?
