[Bug 1588349] Re: Checking for updates never finishes on 3G when no updates available

[Jonas G. Drange]

Marked this bug as incomplete for System Settings as it's not clear to
me that System Image tells System Settings that it has finished checking
(i.e. timed out if that's the case). We need some sort of signal in
these cases.

Title:
  Checking for updates never finishes on 3G when no updates available

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in system-image package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  If I'm using wi-fi and go to settings and then select updates, "Checking for updates..." screen appears with a spinner for a few seconds; if there is any update available it shows, otherwise informs about the unavailability of updates.
  But while using mobile data (3G/H) *if there is no update available*, it gets stuck on the "Checking for updates..." screen and the spinner keeps spinning. I waited as long as 10-15 minutes.
  Note: If there is an update available then the behaviour is normal, i.e. shows the available update(s) after a few seconds.
  I'm seeing this behaviour from the very beginning (OTA-6 days).
