Description
On Android, when syncing a project, the app needs to be in foreground.
If it goes background or the phone screen is off, it will most probably fail randomly leaving the project locked server-side.
Users need to wait 5-10 minutes for the locks being cleared to make another attempt to sync the project.

Research direction
Start by reproducing a project sync on Android while backgrounding the app or turning off the screen, then read related tickets #585, #586, #1684, and #2470. Done means syncing completes without requiring the app to remain in the foreground and does not leave the project locked server-side.
