"State.CONNECTED": CONNECTED cannot be resolved or is not a field

I want to check if my Android app is connected to the Internet. I copied the code I read in a book, here it is:
ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo networkInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
int networkType = networkInfo.getType();
android.net.NetworkInfo.State networkState = networkInfo.getState();
if (networkState.compareTo(State.CONNECTED)==0)
{
//We are connected!!!
}
I've also given my app the permission to access network state, but Eclipse says this next to State.CONNECTED:
CONNECTED cannot be resolved or is not a field.
Even books are wrong, now? x(
Thanks in advance.

you have imported the wrong state
change
if (networkState.compareTo(State.CONNECTED)==0)
to
if (networkState.compareTo(android.net.NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED)==0)

android tablet has no phone and code gives error when checking

I have an app that works fine on a android phone , but when I try to run it on the Nexus7 which has no phone the code fails with a force stop at the location indicated. What is the solution? How do I check to see if the feature is there and what should I do to solve this?
ConnectivityManager connMgr = (ConnectivityManager)getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo networkInfo = connMgr.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI);
boolean isWifiConn = networkInfo.isConnected();
printi("oopsA",6);
networkInfo = connMgr.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE);
printi("oopsB",6);
boolean isMobileConn = networkInfo.isConnected(); //<<<<FAILS HERE ON NEXUS 7

Your networkInfo is probably null. You have to test that before. This means you can't access to this type of connectivityManager.
Try this:
networkInfo = connMgr.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE);
boolean isMobileConn = false;
if(networkInfo != null)
isMobileConn = networkInfo.isConnected();

I have faced same problem with Motorola Xoom, because it does not have connectivity support for ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE.
Following code is working fine for me :
ConnectivityManager connMngr = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
try {
return connMngr.getActiveNetworkInfo().isConnected();
}
catch (NullPointerException npe) {
return false;
}

Check permissions in AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<user-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />

Corrected Code as follows:
IsAPhone=0;
try{
boolean isMobileConn = false;
if(networkInfo != null){ isMobileConn = networkInfo.isConnected();IsAPhone=1;}
}
catch (Exception e) {}

How to check if mobile network is enabled/disabled

I would like to know if the mobile network is enabled or disabled.
My application is designed to help the user when he receives a phone call, and to do this I need Internet access. Thus, I would like to display an information box when the user access the application for the first time if Wi-Fi has a sleep policy and Mobile network is disabled. (I need Internet within milliseconds after the phone start ringing).
I found Settings.System.WIFI_SLEEP_POLICY, but I can't find any information on how to check if mobile network is disabled (when Wi-Fi is on and working).
Any help would be appreciated!
Edit:
The problem is that I want to know if mobile network is turned of by the user (while the phone could have WiFi access at the time).

I finally found a solution. Apparently not all phones have this option:
Home > Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile network (checkbox)
However, for those who do, this method will work:
/**
* #return null if unconfirmed
*/
public Boolean isMobileDataEnabled(){
Object connectivityService = getSystemService(CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) connectivityService;
try {
Class<?> c = Class.forName(cm.getClass().getName());
Method m = c.getDeclaredMethod("getMobileDataEnabled");
m.setAccessible(true);
return (Boolean)m.invoke(cm);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}

apparently there is an alternative, more clean solution then the Reflection approach:
final ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
final NetworkInfo networkInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
int type = networkInfo.getType();
String typeName = networkInfo.getTypeName();
boolean connected = networkInfo.isConnected()
networkInfo.getType() will return '0' when connected to mobile network
or '1' when connected trough WIFI. networkInfo.getTypeName() will return
the strings "mobile" or "WIFI". and networkInfo.isConnected() will tell you whether or not you have an active connection.

UPDATE FOR ANDROID 5.0+ (API 21+)
Calling getMobileDataEnabled via the reflection leads to NoSuchMethodException on Android 5.0+ on some devices. So in addition to accepted answer you may wanna do second check if NoSuchMethodException is thrown.
...
catch(NoSuchMethodException e)
{
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP)
{
isDataEnabled = Settings.Global.getInt(context.getContentResolver(), "mobile_data", 0) == 1;
}
}

you can use below code this is working for all API versions:
ConnectivityManager cm =
(ConnectivityManager)mContext.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo activeNetwork = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
boolean isConnected = activeNetwork != null &&
activeNetwork.isConnectedOrConnecting();
if(isConnected)
{
if(activeNetwork.getType()==ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE)
return true;
else
return false;
}
else
return false;

PackageManager pm = context.getPackageManager();
boolean hasTelephony = pm.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_TELEPHONY);

Android - To check if the phone has a network provider

I have an android app, in that there is a particular requirement where in I need to check if the Android device has a network provider or its just WiFi enabled.
Thank You.

This should do the trick.
ConnectivityManager connectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo networkInfo = connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
if(networkInfo != null && networkInfo.isConnected()){
//Your code here
}

final ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
final NetworkInfo networkInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
int type = networkInfo.getType();
String typeName = networkInfo.getTypeName();
boolean connected = networkInfo.isConnected()
networkInfo.getType() will return 0 when connected to Mobile
network or 1 when connected trough WIFI.
networkInfo.getTypeName()
will return the strings mobile or WIFI.
networkInfo.isConnected()
will tell you whether or not you have an active connection.

You should take a look at the documentation.
isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER) is what you need

Check the Internet Connectivity in Android

I am trying to pull as well as push some data to and from the server via webservice. The mandatory thing that should i have to do is connectivity check. What i have done right now is , i have written a connectivity check code in each activity before it pushes/ pulls the result set from the server. I know its not a best way that i should have to code. Instead this connectivity check should be running some thing like a background , (behind the screens) and alerts the user, when the WIFI / 3G becomes low / goes down.
What is the best way to do so ?
Please let me know know your thoughts.
Thank you.

You can register a BroadcastReceiver to listen for connectivity changes. A detailed post can be found here.

Hi i do these way maybe there better
private boolean checkInternetConnection() {
ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
// test for connection
if (cm.getActiveNetworkInfo() != null
&& cm.getActiveNetworkInfo().isAvailable()
&& cm.getActiveNetworkInfo().isConnected()) {
return true;
} else {
//no conection
return false;
}
}

public static boolean isInternetAvailable(Context context){
ConnectivityManager connec = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
android.net.NetworkInfo wifi = connec.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI);
android.net.NetworkInfo mobile = connec.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE);
if(wifi.isConnected() || mobile.isConnected()){
// Check for web site
try{
// Create a URL for the desired page
URL url = new URL("http://www.google.com");
// Read all the text returned by the server
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream()));
in.close();
return true;
} catch (Exception e) {
return false;
}
}
return false;
}
The method also checks whether a certain website in this case the www.google.com is available. This might be useful as the device might be connected to a WLAN router which has no internet access. In this case wifi.isConnected() would also return true although no internet is available.

for check internet connection in android..
public static boolean isOnline(Activity act)
{
ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager)act.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo netInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
if (netInfo != null && netInfo.isConnectedOrConnecting())
{
return true;
}
return false;
}
