Public bug reported:
Pro 5 on 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?
