[FIXED] Possible to observe network status?

Issue

I'm wondering if there's a way to somehow register as an observer for network access (and have some callback function run when the internet is avaliable), or if polling is the only way. Thanks!

Solution

You can register receiver:

//Callback  
private final BroadcastReceiver mNetworkStateReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
    @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
           //network state changes, you can process it, inforamtion in intent
        }
    };

//registering recievr in actibity or in service
IntentFilter mNetworkStateFilter = new IntentFilter(ConnectivityManager.CONNECTIVITY_ACTION);
registerReceiver(mNetworkStateReceiver , mNetworkStateFilter);
