background-task

I need to trigger my background task when the application added the toast notification to the action center. I have tried with ToastNotificationHistoryChangedTrigger and it's not triggering the task when the application added the toast notification. Is there any solution for it?

Is there a way to schedule a function which calls a web service at a particular time on a daily basis? According to my research, I will have to use local notifications or NSTimer to schedule or call the function at a specific time.

Im having a issue with the Background Tasks in WP8.1 I have created a background task as a windows runtime component following this tutorial : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh977055.aspx The problem is, i can't get my background task to run. It runs onNetworkChange. When i can to flight mode and back it is not firing. When i go to lifecycle events in the Debug Location toolbar it says No Background tasks. I have debugged the code that registers the background task and it is getting registered. I am also getting 'This breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols
