Android check internet connection
<p>I want to create an app that uses the internet and I'm trying to create a function that checks if a connection is available and if it isn't, go to an activity that has a retry button and an explanation. </p>

<p>Attached is my code so far, but I'm getting the error <code>Syntax error, insert "}" to complete MethodBody.</code></p>

<p>Now I have been placing these in trying to get it to work, but so far no luck... Any help would be appreciated.</p>

<pre><code>public class TheEvoStikLeagueActivity extends Activity {
    private final int SPLASH_DISPLAY_LENGHT = 3000;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
        super.onCreate(icicle);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        private boolean checkInternetConnection() {
            ConnectivityManager conMgr = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService (Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
            // ARE WE CONNECTED TO THE NET
            if (conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo() != null
                    &amp;&amp; conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo().isAvailable()
                    &amp;&amp; conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo().isConnected()) {

                return true;

                /* New Handler to start the Menu-Activity
                 * and close this Splash-Screen after some seconds.*/
                new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {
                        /* Create an Intent that will start the Menu-Activity. */
                        Intent mainIntent = new Intent(TheEvoStikLeagueActivity.this, IntroActivity.class);
                        TheEvoStikLeagueActivity.this.startActivity(mainIntent);
                        TheEvoStikLeagueActivity.this.finish();
                    }
                }, SPLASH_DISPLAY_LENGHT);
            } else {
                return false;

                Intent connectionIntent = new Intent(TheEvoStikLeagueActivity.this, HomeActivity.class);
                TheEvoStikLeagueActivity.this.startActivity(connectionIntent);
                TheEvoStikLeagueActivity.this.finish();
            }
        }
    }
