Cyclic tile template Windows Phone 8.1

I am trying to create cyclic tile template using this code

TileUpdateManager.CreateTileUpdaterForApplication().EnableNotificationQueue(true);

var tileXml = TileUpdateManager.GetTemplateContent(TileTemplateType.TileSquare150x150Image);

var tileImage = tileXml.GetElementsByTagName(“image”)[0] as XmlElement;
tileImage.SetAttribute(“src”, “ms-appx:///Assets/image1.jpg”);
var tileNotification = new TileNotification(tileXml);
TileUpdateManager.CreateTileUpdaterForApplication().Update(tileNotification);

tileImage.SetAttribute(“src”, “ms-appx:///Assets/image2.jpg”);
tileNotification = new TileNotification(tileXml);
tileNotification.Tag = “myTag”;
TileUpdateManager.CreateTileUpdaterForApplication().Update(tileNotification);

But the tiles are not cyclic they are only flipping. How to make the above code to act as cyclic tile??

Cycle Tile template is old - for Windows Phone 8 or Windows Phone 8.1 Silverlight. You can read about them here. For Windows Phone 8.1 RT you can only use the new templates like TileSquare150x150Image that are all listed here. The new ones unfortunately don't have the nice 'Ken Burns' effect like the Cycle Tile template.
