SDK: Android Dev Preview L.

Android build: LPV79.

Device : Nexus 5.

Problem: KITKAT(4.4.4) and below API's

1)startUsingNetworkFeature(int networkType, String feature) This method is deprecated. Deprecated in favor of the cleaner requestNetwork(NetworkRequest, ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback).

2)requestRouteToHost(int networkType, int hostAddress) This method is deprecated. Deprecated in favor of the requestNetwork(NetworkRequest, ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback), setProcessDefaultNetwork(Network) and getSocketFactory().

were used to send request over Mobile Data Network when WIFI and mobile data were on.

Starting Android L the API's is deprecated and no longer work.

New API's/Classes NetworkRequest.Builder,NetworkRequest,ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback,requestNetwork,registerNetworkCallback were used.

Code: ConnectivityManager connectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);

NetworkRequest.Builder builder = new NetworkRequest.Builder();

builder.addCapability(NetworkCapabilities.NET_CAPABILITY_NOT_RESTRICTED); builder.addTransportType(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_CELLULAR);

NetworkRequest networkRequest = builder.build(); connectivityManager.requestNetwork(networkRequest, networkCallback); connectivityManager.registerNetworkCallback(networkRequest, networkCallback);

Working Scenario:

Only mobile data on onAvailable callback is received.

Not working Scenario: Both Mobile and Wifi is on and connected,onAvailable callback is not received from system.Hence not able to set setProcessDefaultNetwork ConnectivityManager.setProcessDefaultNetwork(preferedNetwork);

Frequently: Always

Expected output: Get mobile network avaliabe callback when wifi is on.

Am i missing something here or the firmware has some issues here?

ADB attached.
