Android Question Internet Connection Check error

[gerredtor]

Hello,
i would like to proove if there is an Internet Connection. I am doing that at the Moment with a code that prooves the ping to 8.8.8.8. But i noticed that there are Smartphones like the Samsung S3 which doesn`t allow that test. Are there any other possibilities except the attempt to download a file? with HTTPJob

My code:

    Dim ph As Phone
    Dim Response, Error As StringBuilder
    Response.Initialize
    Error.Initialize

    ph.Shell("ping -c 1 8.8.8.8",Null,Response,Error)
       
    If Error.ToString="" Then
        Return True
    Else
        Return False
    End If

And i have try This code

#If JAVA

public boolean isInternetAvailable() {
        try {
            java.net.InetAddress ipAddr = java.net.InetAddress.getByName("google.com");

            if (ipAddr.equals("")) {
                return false;
            } else {
                return true;
            }

        } catch (Exception e) {
            return false;
        }

    }
#End If

Sub pruefeInternet As Boolean

Return jo.RunMethod("isInternetAvailable",Null)

End Sub

But this error comes:

Sub_main_pruefeinternet....
java.lang.RuntimeException: Method: isInternetAvailable not found in: android.widget.TextView

Did you add this before trying to run the method jo.InitializeContext?

 

[gerredtor]

If FirstTime Then
    jo.InitializeContext
....
.

yes

Are there any other possibilities except the attempt to download a file? with HTTPJob

I tried many times with Ping without success, then I think the answer should be: no

It is working on my device but returns false
