After some time , all android apps with internet loses connectivity. Restarting dalivk doesn't help. Only rebooting network is helping.

Yep, same problem here. Seems to only affect 4g

So using 3G mode data connections work?

IMHO 4G is tricky at best. At least here in Finland, none of the 4G networks carry phone calls, so whenever you get or make a call, 3G (or 2G) connection is established first, and that may very well result in data disconnection and/or other (connectivity) issues. Bigger is not always better - as long as 4G doesn't carry phone calls, I'm sticking to 3G. Mobile phone networks should never have started to carry data. Convenient, yes, but as phone calls and data transfer compete and exhaust the available bandwith...well, problems arise.

I haven't checked current 4G networks' capabilities since spring '15, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

4g is not to blame, it works fine on other phone OSs and fine on Sailfish native. This is a bug in Android emulator .

on 3G is the same issue. i think android emulator is to blame.

Confirming. Same behaviour with two Jollas. Tested with Saunalahti, Sonera and DNA. While Android apps stop tranfering data, native apps keep going, so it's not in the network, but the aliendalvik, or routing.

Jolla, have you confirm this?
