Details

I played a bit with the new customization possibilities of the Awesomescreen and created a small add-on based on https://github.com/leibovic/hub-boilerplate to show the latest news of my website on my home screen. For testing purposes I set HomeProvider.addPeriodicSync() to only 60 seconds (because I don't want to wait a full hour to test the add-on), but the list does not refresh after 60 seconds. The pull-to-refresh functionality works, so I don't think the data source is the problem, but the periodic sync. Tested with the latest Nighty
Blocks: lists
This is working as intended, we should update the document to make it clear that we limit you to syncing once per hour. Were you seeing this message in the log? http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/modules/HomeProvider.jsm#169

Hi, yes, I can see the message in the console. Thank you.
