Description
This is a helper app to resolve a known bug in Android 4 devices affecting apps and associated user account data, leading to account credential deletion on restart of the device. See Android issue 34880 (href=http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34880) for details.
This workaround app requires ownCloud 1.3.19 or higher, it will not work without the ownCloud app installed. Be sure that you have upgraded your ownCloud app or installed version 1.3.19 or higher before installing this workaround app.
The bug causes accounts of paid apps to be removed when Android boots. To work around this issue, this app pretends to provide the same account type that ownCloud provides so that Jelly Bean does not delete the account. That is all the app does.
Note that this bug is in Android 4.1.x, not in ownCloud. If you are not using ownCloud on Android 4.1.x you do not need this app.
** Users of Android 4.2.x probably do not need this workaround app. If you did not lost your ownCloud accounts in a reboot, do not install it **

4 ★ Easy to use.
1 ★ This fixes the jelly bean bug with pay apps loosing their account informations on reboot... but on the other hand, with this installed syncing the device with an owncloud account does not work anymore. So on android 4.3, you can either have an owncloud app that does not work, or an owncloud app that does not work for a different reason. Not all that useful. Edit: even on android 4.4.2 this is still needed, but do wait with installing it until after the first sync or owncloud wont work at all.
