Android Sync Adapter Resources [closed]

Question

Does anyone know of any books or online resources (except the dev docs) that cover the Sync Adapter and its usage? Struggling to find any good material myself.

Or.. does anyone know of any alternative libraries for conducting remote sync services?

Thanks

I haven't done this on my own yet. But here are 2 links about this: a guide with code (not accepted but might help) #1859741 – Genovevagenre

There really isn't any good resources at this point. If I had to guess at why, it is because the actual implementation of a sync is going to be very specific to each app. I am writing one right now, and it is very trial and error.

We could definitely benefit from a good tutorial on some of the more well known api's out there (an implementation of a twitter account sync for example). Maybe they will finally release the official twitter app code like they have been promising.
