Consume NAV 2015 web service in universal app

Hi, i hope someone can help me with a very frustrating problem i am having 
I am trying to create an universal app. That consumes a soap web service, in my case it is just the customer page, however it seems like all the documentation i can find on msdn uses Web reference, the only problem is that VS 2015 / universal apps dose not support web reference anymore but uses WCF.
I have tried searching on google where i found this:

However unfortunately this approach seems to be outdated, so i am hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction :-)

As far as I can tell that should be possible in WCF:

Yeah I have looked into using oData instead of soap, and as you mentioned it might be the way to go. However as far as i know that means that i can only connect to NAV 2015+ which would be find. Even though we all know that sooner or later someone will come with a NAV 2013, and ask for support...
The funny thing is however that VS 2015 has no problem consuming a NAV soap service, but for the life of me, I just cant get the auto generated classes to fit together with each other...
