Dan if you're out there, or anyone else if you know the answer... did you ever figure out why new accounts don't persist? I'm having this same issue. I've created an account authenticator with its enclosing service and a sync adaptor with its enclosing service. Also, I've created created raw_contacts that are assigned to the account type created, and a new mimetype for data rows in the contacts2.db which contain custom data I want to add about those contacts. Everything seems to be working while my apps are running. But as soon as I reinstall one of the apps or reboot the device, the account type goes away and any raw_contacts with that account type are deleted out of the contacts2.db. I don't hear anyone talking about it hear, so I'm pretty sure its something I'm doing wrong, but I haven't isolated it yet. If there's been a thread I missed, please point me to it. I've downloaded Dan's project and I don't see anything different in the Manifest file that gives me a clue.
