Remarks

When you start the account watcher, it first enumerates all Mobile Broadband Accounts and raises an AccountAdded event for each account found. When the enumeration operation is completed, the account watcher raises the EnumerationCompleted event. After the EnumerationCompleted event is raised, the account watcher continues to raise account-related events (AccountAdded, AccountUpdated, and AccountRemoved) until you call the Stop method.

Note that you do not need to explicitly stop and start the account watcher on App Suspend/Resume events. Instead, starting and starting the watcher is handled by the API itself.
