I'm trying to get and then send IP address from android application.

WifiManager wm = (WifiManager) getSystemService(WIFI_SERVICE);
String ip = Formatter.formatIpAddress(wm.getConnectionInfo().getIpAddress());

this works if mobile is online from wifi connection. But if I'll turn on mobile data then this returns 0.0.0.0 as IP. How can I solve that?

@VivekMishra application won't work anyway if it's offline – gsiradze Mar 10 '16 at 06:48
It will only return ip in case you are connected to wifi – Vivek Mishra Mar 10 '16 at 06:49
@VivekMishra there's not nothing similar for mobile data? – gsiradze Mar 10 '16 at 06:50
