I have an application that display what notes that user's have pinned to display today, and all my data saved to a server, parse.com

I tried to use ShellTileSchedule, but it does not let me update with custom code (eg: cannot use connection to server).

Later I found ScheduledTaskAgent, it was great for running at background. But for some reason, when I debug it, it crashed. When i remove parse.com package and remove all code and insert testing code, it doesn't crash. I think it might due to parse.com package, ScheduledTaskAgent doesn't support it.

I wanted to update my application tile with network connection. parse.com has REST API, is there anyway to do it?

I'm Running Express Visual Studio 2013 for Windows, developing Windows Phone 8 Application

There could be a problem the way you download data using ScheduledTaskAgent.

ScheduledTaskAgent works on a background thread.
So if you are using WebClient to download data on this thread, there will be errors.
You have to use HttpWebRequest.

I don't know if they use WebClient or HttpWebRequest on the package, do I have to create my own GetData Class for it?
