Can't Connect To Internet In ONLY In My Android App. Each Method To Connect Internet Returns Null

I am using HttpURLConnection's connect method but it returns null. no other message no printstack just null. URL url = new URL('http://whatever'); URLConnection urlConnection = url

Solution 1:

Add below permissions in manifest file-

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Solution 2:

You said you are using HttpURLConnection but in the code you poste URLConnection. This is how you make a proper HttpURLConnection:

URL url = new URL("http://www.android.com/");
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
try {
  InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
  readStream(in);
 finally {
  urlConnection.disconnect();
 }
}

You also have to do this connection outside the main thread (Using AsyncTask or other method) or otherwise the app will crash.

Also add the right permissions for it:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Hope it helps! Good Luck!
