Edit Question
Title
Body
I am making an app where a user is uploading information and files to my server on a somewhat frequent basis. This is done in new threads through a dedicated uploader service. I know from this thread Detect whether there is an Internet connection available on Android that you can check if there is an internet connection relatively easily. You can also get socketTimeoutExceptions to detect internet connectivity issues. All that is well and good, and lets me cache my uploads easily enough when the connection didn't work for whatever reason. My question though is how do I know when to reattempt the upload? Is there an event triggered when the connection is restored? Or am I stuck making a new thread that sleeps and then checks internet connectivity every 30 seconds or something? Any ideas would be appreciated!
