Answer 1

you're in luck as I just finished cracking this problem on the app I'm developing.

AccountManager.get(getApplicationContext()).getAuthTokenByFeatures("com.google", "oauth2:https://gdata.youtube.com", null, this,
    null, null, new AccountManagerCallback() {

        @Override
        public void run(AccountManagerFuture future) {
        try {
            Bundle bundle = future.getResult();
            String acc_name = bundle.getString(AccountManager.KEY_ACCOUNT_NAME);
            String auth_token = bundle.getString(AccountManager.KEY_AUTHTOKEN);

            Log.d(DEBUG_TAG, "name: " + acc_name + "; token: " + auth_token);

        } catch (Exception e) {
            Log.e(DEBUG_TAG, e.getClass().getSimpleName() + ": " + e.getMessage());
        }
        }
    }, null);
