Okay. So logs revealed an error message sent by horde to the client:

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Call to a member function before() on a non-object
in <b>/var/www/horde5/nag/lib/Application.php</b> on line
<b>574</b><br />

Message is extracted from android caldav sync adapter debug logs. I can
provide full logs if desired, but I think the above message is the
relevant part.


Also, according to Marten Gajda, the author of caldav sync, since the
server crashes with that message, it should have returned code 500, but
currently it does not. So the clients assume update went ok and you
don't get an error message.
