How to detect limited internet connectivity in android

Question

I am working on an app that is basically dependent on services. Issue is when internet is limited then app crash because of jason response is {} so if we try to get object or array at 0 index it crashes and try catch block is not catching the exception so i want to check limited connectivity. I'm checking it while sending post request to server but in that case HttpResponce object take almost 1 to 2 min so i want to improve user experience what should i do any suggestion please .

HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
int timeoutConnection = 1000;
int timeoutSocket = 1000;
HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection);
HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket);

this time out is not working i guess conection is not establish that is the reason. Any one can please help me to sort out this issue

ping google from your android app to check network reachability first then try your code — Illegal Argument, Jun 11 '14 at 10:45

Why not make your http call asynchrounous. In that way you execute anything until your http call finishes. Or simply check null value or empty of your json.

Things is that Httpresponce take almost 1 to 2 sec its a big delay. – Hafiz.M.Usman Jun 11 '14 at 14:07
