Windows Store app 8.1 - Layout cycle detected. Layout could not complete.

Question

Anyone know a good way to get around the "Layout cycle detected. Layout could not complete."(Found this after my app crashes and leads to App.g.i.cs Page and pointing at some debugger code which I havent touched)

I Googled and found lots of responses to silver-light projects and its because they had more than 250 textblocks(Which make it think its in a infinite loop). 
The number of textblocks should be about 630 (Each ListItem has 5 and theres about 126 listItems), This excludes other title and info blocks I have. 

Should I be making separate list for every X amount? 
or
Change my Template to something else?
Or 
Something Else?
All ideas are welcome. Thanks

Hi,

Layout cycle errors occur generally when Layout of a control is updated in an infinite loop.

You Listview control contains so many items in it. I recommend you can use virtualization in your control. And implement incremental loading in Listview.

Also, you can refer to the similar thread to get more information:

Hope this can help you!

Best Wishes!
