NetConnection httpIdleTimeout on Android not working

Hi all,

I connect to web services using a NetConnection.  This works very well, except on Android when there is no network connection.

Even though httpIdleTimeout is set to 5000ms, making a call with NetConnection will not respond for about 7-8 minutes, until finally an error event is received.

NetStatusEvent, HTTP: failed

I'm using AIR 15 on a Nexus 7, but same result on a Galaxy Nexus (and others).

Cheers,

Peter
