How to listen in a BroadcastReceiver (onReceive) ether Auto-sync data is turning on/off ?

[Hasnain Ahmad]

How to monitor the state of Auto-sync data is turning on/off in BroadcastReceiver.
How to get status of Auto-sync data in onReceive method via intent/context?
What will be action name in the manifest to monitor the status of Auto-sync data ?

Here is my AutoSyncReceiver code.

import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.ContentResolver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
public class AutoSyncReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        int autoSyncSatus = intent.getIntExtra(ContentResolver.SYNC_OBSERVER_TYPE_ACTIVE, -1);
    }
}

Here is my manifest code.

<receiver android:name=".receivers.AutoSyncReceiver">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="" />
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

I want to check if the user change the state of Auto-sync data, I want to listen it, bound the state until pattern is true.
Like

int extraWifiState = intent.getIntExtra(WifiManager.EXTRA_WIFI_STATE, WifiManager.WIFI_STATE_UNKNOWN); WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) mContext.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
if (extraWifiState == WifiManager.WIFI_STATE_DISABLED) {
     currentWifiState = "enabled";
     wifiManager.setWifiEnabled(true);
     showPatternDialog();
     
} else if (extraWifiState == WifiManager.WIFI_STATE_ENABLED) {
     currentWifiState = "disabled";
     wifiManager.setWifiEnabled(false);
     showPatternDialog();
}

Assume that firstly Auto-sync data is enable
In showPatternDialog I have dialog with that shows pattern if pattern is valid then,
I will disable it using this code.

ContentResolver.setMasterSyncAutomatically(false);

I cannot help you, I would use a Sync Adapter to manage that.
