Bug: connectivity module always return undefined on android <= 4.4 #3098
Description
Which platform(s) does your issue occur on?
Android <= 4.4 (Tested on 4.2.2 and 4.4.2 with emulator)
Android >= 5.0 works as expected (at least all the versions I've tested on)
Please provide the following version numbers that your issue occurs with:
- CLI: 2.3.0
- Cross-platform modules: 2.3.0
- Runtime(s): tns-android@2.3.0
- Plugin(s):
Please tell us how to recreate the issue in as much detail as possible.
*Steps to reproduce: *
- Setup a project, enable android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE in
app/App_Resources/Android/AndroidManifest.xml - Import the connectivity module;
- Setup and
connectivity.startMonitoringor callconnectivity.getConnectionType() - On older androids (I tested on an emulator running 4.2.2 and 4.4.2, CPU: Google APIs Intel Atom x86) connectivity status is always
undefined.
Expected result:
Connection status on both older and newer android.
Is there code involved? If so, please share the minimal amount of code needed to recreate the
problem.
I've made a simple example here:
https://github.com/m-abs/ns-debugging/tree/connectivity-issue
connectivity.startMonitoring((status) => {
console.log(status);
switch (status) {
case connectivity.connectionType.mobile: {
this.networkStatus = 'MOBILE';
break;
}
case connectivity.connectionType.wifi: {
this.networkStatus = 'WIFI';
break;
}
case connectivity.connectionType.none: {
this.networkStatus = 'OFFLINE';
break;
}
default: {
this.networkStatus = 'UNKNOWN';
break;
}
}
});

Hi @m-abs,
Thank you for reporting this issue and for providing sample project.
I was able to reproduce this behavior on emulator with API level 18 and 17. Regarding to that I could not reproduce this problem on real device. We will research further this issue and will provide additional information. In the mean time could you check, whether you will reproduce this problem on real device?
Regards,
@tsonevn

I'll have to get back to you, when I've found a hardware device with older android version.

Hi @tsonevn
Sorry, I can't test on a real device with Android4.2/API17, the oldest device I've access to right now runs Android 4.4.
But if the problem only occures on an emulator it's only a minor annoyance for us.
Fix: connectivity module always returns undefined on android <= 4.4
