📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe Android client now tracks network availability, propagates no-network callbacks, updates UI and foreground notification states, replaces network-change restart handling, and adds localized status strings. ChangesNetwork state flow
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR changes network-loss and network-switch handling without restarting the engine, but the current implementation can misreport connectivity, fail during retry when network state is absent, and leave some status UI stale.

Track whether any network claims internet connectivity and feed the result to the Go core, which suspends its reconnection loops instead of retrying into a dead radio. NetworkChangeDetector now keeps the set of available networks and reports only the transitions in and out of "nothing available", seeding its state at registration so the engine learns the truth even when it starts offline. Surface the suspension: the engine reports a NoNetwork state over the new OnStateChanged callback, and the home screen paints "No network available" rather than a "Connecting…" that is not happening. The per-state callbacks stay for compatibility. Two listener defects show up once callbacks are logged. getConnectionListener handed out the ObservingConnectionListener wrapper, which EngineRestarter then wrapped again, so every callback was delivered twice and stacked a further layer on each failed restart; it now returns the raw listener. And the restart filter released on the first non-disconnect state, which the old engine also emits while its management and signal links drop during teardown — the Disconnected flash it exists to hide went straight through. It now releases only after onStopped, where the old engine's run has provably returned.
The engine restart that handled network type changes tore down the TUN device and the peer state to fix what is really a socket-level problem: connections bound to the old network. The Go core now exposes NotifyNetworkChange, which cuts exactly those connections so the reconnect loops redial on the new network — measured recovery is 1.6s against the restart's 3.2s, with no Disconnected flash and no leak window while the TUN is gone. EngineRestarter is replaced by NetworkSwitchNotifier: same trigger and debounce, and the cancel-when-reconnected guard stays because a cut after the core already reconnected on its own would sever fresh, working connections. The debounce drops from 2s to 1s — a cut is cheap and idempotent, so it does not need the headroom a restart did. The restart-only machinery goes with it: the filtering listener that hid teardown callbacks from the UI, and EngineRunner's suppression and listener-snapshot support, none of which have a purpose when nothing is torn down.
The NoNetwork state shipped with only the default English string, so localized devices fell back to English on the home screen.
Picks up the netsweep dial handoff, the relay transport read ordering, the sweep test fix, and the reconnection resume when the network comes back.

changed the title
Replace the single status-bar icon with per-state glyphs derived from the desktop's macOS template tray icons, which are the only variant an Android small icon can carry (the system tints it and reads only the alpha channel). The states mirror the desktop tray's iconForState(): connecting, connected, disconnected, no-network, needs-login and error, with needs-login and no-network sharing the error and disconnected glyphs because the desktop distinguishes them by color alone. The notification text now names the state instead of the generic service line, reusing the home screen's wording in all ten locales, with the desktop tray translations filling the gaps. Driving the icon exposed three staleness holes, all fixed here: - Detaching the UI listener dropped the Go-side subscription entirely, freezing the icon while the app was backgrounded - exactly when the notification is the only visible status. The service now keeps its own observers subscribed through a no-op delegate. - Re-entering the foreground assumed CONNECTING, which stuck because the Go core only re-emits state on an actual change (visible after a session extend). The state is now derived from the run-loop status. - The engine stop that follows a session expiry overwrote the login prompt with a plain disconnected icon; the stop path now keeps NEEDS_LOGIN, which the Go side latches until a login clears it. The session expiry notification moves to the error glyph, retiring the old notification_icon asset.
The Go core now debounces network change notifications itself and its sweep spares connections that reconnected on their own, so the Java side no longer needs the debounce, the reconnect observer or the cancelPendingAction plumbing.

Refresh the exit-node row for NO_NETWORK.
onEngineState(EngineState.NO_NETWORK) sets isConnected to false. This callback does not call updateExitNodeRow(). A previously enabled exit-node row can therefore remain enabled until another route or peer event arrives.
Call updateExitNodeRow() after onEngineState(EngineState.NO_NETWORK).

Fan out onAddressChanged and onPeersListChanged to the observers as well.
connectionObservers holds full ConnectionListener instances. These two callbacks only reach delegate, so a service-owned observer never receives them. That is an inconsistent contract for the observer type and it breaks silently when a future observer relies on either callback.
♻️ Proposed fix for the fan-out gap
- `@Override` public void onAddressChanged(String f, String i) { delegate.onAddressChanged(f, i); }
- `@Override` public void onPeersListChanged(long n) { delegate.onPeersListChanged(n); }

Seed the availability state from non-VPN internet networks, not getActiveNetwork().
getActiveNetwork() returns the network that serves this app, and the NetBird VPN interface itself becomes that network once the tunnel is up. The registered request at Line 160 tracks non-VPN internet networks only, so the app's own VPN network never appears in availableNetworks and never produces onLost.
If the service restarts while the VPN interface is up and the device has no underlying network, the seed sets internetAvailable = true, no callback ever corrects it, and hasInternetConnectivity() stays wrong. VPNService.onCreate pushes that value straight into engineRunner.setNetworkAvailable(...), so the Go reconnect loops never suspend.
Seed from the networks that match the same criteria as the callback instead.

Preserve NO_NETWORK during foreground re-entry.
connectionObserver sets NO_NETWORK from onStateChanged(). Line 162 later replaces that state with currentState(). currentState() has no NO_NETWORK mapping and returns DISCONNECTED for unrecognized states.
Store the latest connection phase, including NO_NETWORK, and use it when repainting the notification. Otherwise, the notification stays disconnected until another connection callback occurs.

On network changes the client restarted the whole engine. That is heavy-handed and slow: it tears down working state to recover from a transition the engine could handle itself. This replaces the restart with proper network event handling.
Suspend the retry loops while no network is available. Instead of burning through backoff intervals against an unreachable network, the reconnection loops park until the OS reports a usable network again.
Reconnect immediately on a network switch. When the OS hands us a new network, connections bound to the old one are swept and re-dialed right away, rather than waiting for a timeout to notice they are dead.
