private boolean checkConnection()        {                      ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);                   NetworkInfo netInfo = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();            if (netInfo != null && netInfo.isConnectedOrConnecting()) {            return true;            }            return false;        }
