---------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.3.0)
> PhoneGap iOS 6 - network.connection.type issue when turning OFF airplane mode
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-1738
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1738
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 2.0.0
> Environment: i am testing on two iPhone4 one running OS5 ,and one on
> OS6
> Reporter: Jasper
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: ios, network.connection
>
> 30Oct, 2012
> Apple Bug Report: Problem ID: 12602276
> --------------------------------------------------------
> update on 26Oct, 2012
> After more investigation I think this probably is an iOS6 issue
> The PhoneGap API returns "wifi" when the wifi symbol actually shows up ( the
> radio status probably doesn't matter ) on banner
> My application will invoke an RPC , which will fail due to error "A server
> with specified hostname could not be found" Code= 1003
> So I think the problem is iOS6 lies about the status, It says wifi is ready
> while it is not entirely. From my observation error occurs within 15s after
> wifi symbol shows up. After 15s almost for sure there will be no network
> error.
> This issue cannot be reproduced on iOS5. It could be a problem within a LAN
> environment too ( I am hitting a server within company domain )
> PhoneGap probably got tricked by the iOS network status too. Maybe there is
> something else PhoneGap can check, but not sure.
> Meanwhile I will lower the bug priority and report an issue to Apple.

> 24Oct 2012
> I have an app that talks to a server. Before making an RPC I use the PG API
> to check for connectivity:
> http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.1.0/cordova_connection_connection.md.html#Connection
> code snippet:
> var networkState = navigator.network.connection.type
> if (networkState == "none" || networkState == "unknown")
> {
> //DO NOT make connection
> }
> Scenario: ( i am testing on two iPhone4 , one running OS5 ,and one on OS6)
> 1. Turn ON airplane mode from setting. wait until the radio and wifi are
> fully OFF
> 2. Turn OFF airplane, quickly switch to my app and make an RPC, make sure on
> the top left of the banner the connectivity status is showing "searching..."
> 3. Expect to see networkState as "unknown" (iOS5 behavior). but it returns
> "wifi" (iOS6)
> another minor observation - on iOS6 it takes double time to turn off the
> airplane mode.
> iOS5 it takes like around 3 seconds to have the connectivity reestablished,
> before i finish the following actions: toggle the mode button, close the
> setting app. foreground my app, click on a button.
> iOS6 it takes like 6 seconds, which makes the bug more easy to reproduce.
