Due to insufficient Android documentation the current UserManager only utilizes a part of Android's AccountManager functionality. We never managed to get everything working as intended, hence this solution.
The AbstractAccountAuthenticator has not been implemented since we never got the functionality working, even though we exactly followed all existing documentation. Also, the AccountManager never retrieves any tokens from the backend. All API operations are executed by the UserManager.
