tl:dr - workaround on the bottom of this post , its a workaround - not a fix though..

For the specimen who think every complain from a low-post-count user must be a troll attempt from an apple infiltrator:
fact: Low post count is natural for people who dont wh0re the forums needlessly.
Need arises, when a user encounters a problem and seeks help - since a real tech-support doesnt exist anywhere in the mobile phone realm.
A forum is the only target to come with worries. Naturally every such post is negative of nature, since no one seeks help with a positive experience..
(I worked in tech support for >10 yrs, i know what i talk about)
This is also the explanation for low post count - ordinary phone users dont sit in the forums and make countless posts for the sake of it, they have jobs and families and other things to do - so many people coming here with genuine issues will be first timers, especially when lumia920 and wp8 is (fortunately) creating a whole bunch of new users bound to hit problems sooner or later.
Now, i am a first time poster here... i use my windows live account, which i generated just for the lumia 920.. i never owned an iphone, and i hope i never will.
(I am brand loyal to NOKIA, not to windows. I love my meegoo and symbian phones who are still operational and receive updates - just as well.)
Now to the problem at hand:
I do have a genuine issue - taht is the livetiles dont update (mail does, but any type of calendar, batterylife or weather apps - they dont..) and because it happenes with many different apps - and many different variation of any of those apps - i blame the OS.
In my case, the "live"-tiles dont even refresh when i touch the screen .. i have to enter the application and initiate refresh from within, and sometimes
that does the trick. Sometimes not even that helps. Since it has worked earlier for a while... i have a few theories along the line of memory leaks, backround process handling, saturated spooling folders ... in any case, smells like a typical bug. Problem is - there is no way to get microsoft personnel
informed about the bug. I have no reason to believe they read my post here..
Now, is it that unnatural that i come here and seek for people who encountered the same and perhaps overcame it somehow? I dont think so.
This isnt trolling, itis often just plain frustration. So how about some help?
LUMIA 920
latest os update available today
i gather from the age of this thread, that the problem is around since many many months..
maybe this helps some of the victims until MS brings out a patch addressing it:
