            //pdf code work
        }
    }
}

The Exception here, it return null, so any help to get the item when I am holding from the listbox?

A:

When you tap and hold, the ListViewItem doesn't get selected, so SelectedItem will always be null. Instead, you should get the value of the DataContext from the MenuFlyoutItem, like this:
private async void EditButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        WritePadFileContent listitem = (e.OriginalSource as MenuFlyoutItem).DataContext as WritePadFileContent;
        MessageDialog messageDialog = new MessageDialog(listitem.Name.ToString());
        await messageDialog.ShowAsync();

        //code for export to pdf, it works
    }
