does anyone know what exactly ContentResolver.SYNC_EXTRAS_EXPEDITED does? the api documentation for that constant is essentially blank.
it sounds like what i want (sync the supplied account first, before the others), but it's always good to know for sure...
You can find a definition in Google's guide to Running a Sync Adapter. It's as follows:
SYNC_EXTRAS_EXPEDITED
Forces the sync to start immediately. If you don't set this, the system may wait several seconds before running the sync request, because it tries to optimize battery use by scheduling many requests in a short period of time.
