Yes permissions on older platforms will be ignored. Since older platforms
don't know about sync adapters, they just won't do anything with them.
Do be sure of course to test your code on an older platform to be sure all
is well, though.

Hi,
I'm looking at the sample sync adapter here:
http://developer.android.com/resources/samples/SampleSyncAdapter/index.html
I'd like to still support sdk level 3 and 4 devices. Will including
the following lines in my app's manifest be problematic?:
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNTS /
uses-permission
android:name=android.permission.READ_SYNC_STATS /
are these specific to sdk level 5?
Ideally, we could include these for level 3 and 4 users, and they just
won't be shown the contact sync option at all. Is this how it's meant
to work?
Thanks
