Public Methods

public static NetworkInfo getNetworkInfoFromBroadcast (ConnectivityManager cm, Intent intent)

Return the NetworkInfo that caused the given CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcast. This obtains the current state from ConnectivityManager instead of using the potentially-stale value from EXTRA_NETWORK_INFO.

public static boolean isActiveNetworkMetered (ConnectivityManager cm)

Returns if the currently active data network is metered. A network is classified as metered when the user is sensitive to heavy data usage on that connection. You should check this before doing large data transfers, and warn the user or delay the operation until another network is available.
