How to increment application badge number for recurring local notification (iPhone)

Question

I've setup a local notification that repeats every minute, however I need the application badge number to increment each time. When I run it at the moment it doesn't seem to increase, it just stays a 1. Please can someone help me out?

Here is how I create the notifications:

// Create the UILocalNotification
UILocalNotification *myNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init];
myNotification.alertBody = @"Blah blah blah...";
myNotification.alertAction = @"Blah";
myNotification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName;
myNotification.applicationIconBadgeNumber++;
myNotification.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
myNotification.repeatInterval = NSMinuteCalendarUnit;
myNotification.fireDate = [[NSDate date] dateByAddingTimeInterval:30];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] scheduleLocalNotification:myNotification];

After doing lot's of research I figured out the solution is that there is no solution:

It is not possible to update dynamically the badge number with local notifications while your app is in the background. You have to use push notifications.
