Fleeting

clk android adb shell dumpsys account |gi davdroid|gi name

Account {name=sam, type=bitfire.at.davdroid}
Account {name=contacts (sam Kw), type=at.bitfire.davdroid.address_book}

clk android adb shell am broadcast -a android.content.sync.SYNC_NOW -p at.bitfire.davdroid

Broadcasting: Intent { act=android.content.sync.SYNC_NOW flg=0x400000 pkg=at.bitfire.davdroid }
Broadcast completed: result=0

But does nothing

clk android adb shell am startservice -n at.bitfire.davdroid/.sync.SyncAdapterService 2>&1

Starting service: Intent { cmp=at.bitfire.davdroid/.sync.SyncAdapterService }
Error: Not found; no service started.

clk android adb shell "sync"

still does nothing

clk android adb shell "am startservice -n at.bitfire.davdroid/.sync.SyncAdapterService --es accountName sam" 2>&1

Starting service: Intent { cmp=at.bitfire.davdroid/.sync.SyncAdapterService (has extras) }
Error: Not found; no service started.

There’s a dynamic shortcut of the AccountsActivity that delivers an “sync all” Intent. You can do the same with

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.SYNC at.bitfire.davdroid/.ui.AccountsActivity But this will bring DAVx5 to the foreground and there’s no guarantee that this will work forever.
