Can't Navigate to next Frame

Question

I've got a problem with navigate to next page in section:

    protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
    {
            Debug.WriteLine("Test1");
            Frame.Navigate(typeof(LoginView));
            Debug.WriteLine("Test2");            
    }

The method Frame.Navigate didn't work at all if only it's call in OnNavigatedTo. On debug I see "Test1" and "Test2" but nothing else happens. Any idea? The project: Windows Phone Store App 8.1

Does the LoginView inherit from a Page class? – Lukáš Neoproud May 19 '15 at 21:55 — Lukáš Neoproud, May 19 '15 at 21:55
Yes, it works! Thanks. I put it into RunAsync method :) – Criss May 19 '15 at 22:22 — Criss, May 19 '15 at 22:22

Add async keyword to OnNavigatedTo method and add await Task.Delay(10); before Frame.Navigate() call. Alternatively, you can execute Frame.Navigate() in Dispatcher.

1) using delay

protected override async void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    await Task.Delay(10);
    Frame.Navigate(typeof (LoginView));
}

2) using Dispatcher

protected override async void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    Dispatcher.RunAsync(CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal, () =>
    {
        Frame.Navigate(typeof(LoginView));
    });
}

I also faced the very same issue and it was caused because I had some Xaml not being resolved properly on second page. Check for Xaml being proper and all resource and references being right.
