Need more info - i have the same problem but with app for changing the locker screen. It also needed to be loaded and be working in the background. My solution was an application allowing( info box) that the program will work in background ( need to think about beacuse if you want to get this app to the windows phone marketplace , users need to know about that the is some program running in the background ) - For more info - PM me.

Ok. I have used this in my app :

C#

#region private members 
        bool runsUnderLock; 
        bool isRunningUnderLock;
        bool hasUserAgreedToRunUnderLock;
        bool isRestartRequired; 

#endregion 

#region public properties 
        public bool RunsUnderLock
        {
            get
            {
                return runsUnderLock; 
            } 
            set 
            {                
                if ( value != runsUnderLock ) 
                { 
                    runsUnderLock = value ; 


                    if ( runsUnderLock ) 
                    { 
                        PhoneApplicationService.Current.ApplicationIdleDetectionMode = IdleDetectionMode.Disabled;
                        PhoneApplicationFrame rootframe = App.Current.RootVisual as PhoneApplicationFrame ;

                        System.Diagnostics.Debug.Assert(rootframe != null, "This sample assumes RootVisual has been set"); 
                        if (rootframe != null)
                        {
                            rootframe.Obscured += new EventHandler<obscuredeventargs>(rootframe_Obscured);
                            rootframe.Unobscured += new EventHandler(rootframe_Unobscured);
                        }
                         
                    } 
                    else 
                    {
                        IsRestartRequired = true;
                        // we can not set it; we have to restart app ...
                      //  PhoneApplicationService.Current.ApplicationIdleDetectionMode = IdleDetectionMode.Enabled ; 
                        EventHandler eh = RestartRequired;
                        if (eh != null)
                            eh(this, new EventArgs()); 
                    }

                    SaveSetting("RunsUnderLock", runsUnderLock); 
                    OnPropertyChanged("RunsUnderLock"); 
                } 
            } 
        }</obscuredeventargs>
