This problem affects me every day on my Pro 5 running the latest rc- proposed. The network is not updated at all or with a very looooong delay. Most of the times when I leave my home wifi and go out, I can still notice the "no network" icon after 15 minutes or more even though the mobile data shows as 4G (see attached screenshot). The problem is more apparent when moving from wifi to mobile data then going from mobile data to wifi, but the problems occur quite often both ways.
In some form or another, this has been an issue on every UT phone I have owned (Nexus 4 several years back, Bq Aquaris E4.5 and Meizu Pro 5). The problem is that apps on the phone seems to ask the network indicator about the connection status, not checking if the device is actually connected or not, and therefore throwing me the dreadful "Network error" in any app that needs an internet connection. Wouldn't it be better if the actual connection status determined the state for the apps trying to connect? ** Attachment added: "Network settings and indicator disagreeing" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-network/+bug/1560373/+attachment/4727424/+files/screenshot20160806_164525707.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-network in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1560373 Title: network indicator shows no connection but browser works Status in Canonical System Image: Incomplete Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using nexus 4, wifi is disabled /bearer# system-image-cli -i current build number: 391 device name: mako channel: ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/ubuntu last update: 2016-03-16 13:49:10 version version: 391 version ubuntu: 20160316 version device: 20160315 version custom: 20160316 The network indicator shows no connection. route -n says rmnet_usb1 is default. nmcli c says ril_0 context2 is connected, and browser works ~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 10.65.67.101 0.0.0.0 UG 600 0 0 rmnet_usb1 10.65.67.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 600 0 0 rmnet_usb1 ~# nmcli c NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE /505025500612657/context2 e1a9ae5f-e7f7-cc00-54ed-cb6806086620 gsm ril_0 /505025500612657/context1 c56a0ac7-b8b6-8d66-7e7f-6da831c64ea8 gsm -- llkcr2 bc7eb95d-1ff0-4f64-b6ea-f63084914945 802-11-wireless -- BIGPOND1DE4 bfcaf5ac-262e-4c7d-9998-d421022aef18 802-11-wireless -- TV 1 ea55c5bd-9156-4283-aade-2b615a352f1a 802-11-wireless -- TV 824802a9-9492-44dd-bc8c-01e0b34f8abc 802-11-wireless -- llkcr 96382cce-f023-434f-97ee-b1b6c4103b20 802-11-wireless -- OPTUSDN1E578A 69e23365-40a4-4c7b-a999-7d568fb5d9f5 802-11-wireless -- Telstra1708 f6d10847-fa02-4a49-9644-89f9f9d3e935 802-11-wireless -- ~# nmcli d DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION ril_0 gsm connected /505025500612657/context2 wlan0 wifi unavailable -- dummy0 dummy unmanaged -- rev_rmnet0 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet1 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet2 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet3 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet4 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet5 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet6 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet7 ethernet unmanaged -- rev_rmnet8 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet0 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet1 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet2 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet3 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet4 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet5 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet6 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet7 ethernet unmanaged -- rmnet_smux0 ethernet unmanaged -- lo loopback unmanaged -- sit0 unknown unmanaged -- To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1560373/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
