can any one please help me.?

Answer 1

Generally speaking, in mobile applications, it is normal to loose the connection with the server frequently, as the connectivity is not stable. Your code should check the connectivity with the server in regular intervals (every 30 or 60 seconds, for example) and reestablish the connection with the server in case of failure. I don't think that there is something special about kitkat v4.4.2. Maybe it is the device you are using that has a problem.
