You misunderstand me. I had 7.5 before and changed target to 8.0. After that on 8.0 CheckBox's and RadioButton's are invisible but on 8.1 everything is OK. – Dawid Hyży
I encountered similar problem. Checkboxes were invisible (but functional) on WP 8.0. Didn't find solution. – Ziem
Did you try adding a custom style to the CheckBox and RadioButton. It may be that the Default styling of the elements on WP7.5 might not be visible in WP8 – Kasun Kodagoda

Does the problem occur when you add new Check Boxes or Radio Buttons to your pages? Microsoft did some changes to those controls in WP 8.0 mainly in the terms of colors (brushes)

Try to set some colors to brushes shown here - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/jj709910.aspx

Fox example:

((SolidColorBrush)App.Current.Resources["CheckBoxBackgroundThemeBrush"]).Color = Colors.Magenta;
