Updating live tiles for windows phone 8 periodically

问题

I need to update my application's tile periodically with the count the amount of inbox items. Anyone can give me a reference or relevant link to a example or tutorial? I get my data from a webservice. I went on google, and all the examples is on button click. I need one that does this automatically every few minutes/hours? This is for the windows phone 8 start screen of the phone.

thanks in advance!

There are a couple of different ways you can do this. You can use Azure Mobile Services OR you can use a background process for your app to update the tile. You can find information here :
