Solution

Since the call to ids.setAccountInfo is done from a client side (presuming android SDK is used) while the profile schema for these fields write access is 'serverOnly' or 'clientCreate'. In order for this to work these fields needs to have the 'clientModify' write access.

Get the schema with ids.getSchema and look in fields write access.

It is possible to change that with a call to ids.setSchema, look in link for further details.

writeAccess - Specifies whether to allow unsigned requests to write into this field. This property applies when using the ids.getAccountInfo method, or when setting fields through the usage of a Screen-Set. The supported values are:

"serverOnly" (default) - Only signed requests coming from the server are allowed.

"clientCreate" - Unsigned requests coming from the client are allowed to write into this field, only if it wasn't set before.

"clientModify" - Unsigned requests coming from the client are allowed to write into this field and modify existing values.
