For those facing this issue, I have had similar issue and identified the fix.

Internet connectivity check on Android devices is determined by constantly pinging Google's captive portal.

Trick is to bypass this check by running the following command in ADB shell of the your Android device which is either not connected to the internet or Google's DNS is blocked at firewall level:

settings put global captive_portal_mode 0

Restart the device and ABS Android app will not no longer complain about "No Internet".
Verified it myself on Android 9 and 11 device running todays v0.9.62-beta release.
