Attributes

Remarks

Allows to defer syncing until all accounts are properly set up.

Called when a account / authority pair <ul> <li>that can be handled by this adapter</li> <li>ContentResolver#requestSync(SyncRequest) is synced</li> <li>and the account/provider ContentResolver#getIsSyncable(Account, String) has unknown state (<0).</li> </ul>

This might be called on a different service connection as #onPerformSync.

The system expects this method to immediately return. If the call stalls the system behaves as if this method returned true. If it is required to perform a longer task (such as interacting with the user), return false and proceed in a difference context, such as an android.app.Activity, or foreground service. The sync can then be rescheduled once the account becomes syncable.
