Method which warn before the connection breaks

[TanjaGeray]

Our problem is: when the connection breaks at the same time as a servercall, all informations are lost. Is there any method who inform us if the connection is very bad, so the probability that the connection breaks is very high. I know allready the connectionType but this returns only Wifi or Cellular.

Currently there is no such feature. Since you would need to receive that information on the server side, we would need to send it over in the first place. What kind of scenario do you have in mind here?

with our application you can take a photo and write a text. our customers are always connect via mobile internet (cellular). The problem is now, when they save a text to the photo or they take a photo and the connection to the server breaks every thing is deleted. We want an option to save these data before the connection breaks. Is this possible with the client store?

Since you would have to invoke some code locally to take care of the image the local store would not suffice for you.

Did you take a look at http://tabrisjs.com ? It allows you to write your app in javascript which is directly executed on the device.

We've finished our app already in Java. That's just a bugfix. So it's not possible to create a new app in javascript.

Currently we have no explicit solution for your scenario. We are evaluating to execute JavaScript in parallel to the Java run-time so that some code could be run locally but that will take some time until it will be available.

Hello again,
if the connection to the internet breaks there appears an error message. But this message is different on iOS and Android (see pictures) . The dialog is not programmed by us.
is there a possibility to change the text of the dialog?

Hello,

As of Tabris 1.4.8, the cryptic dialog on Android has been replaced with something more user-friendly : "Could not reach the server.".

However, currently there's no support implemented for changing the text of the dialog with something custom.
