Reload your grid after every specific minute and Run the code in background in Thread.

but if I have to change instantly after it is disconnected,is there any other way??

instantly means within 1 sec right? Then run your code in the background after every 500 milli seconds.

You can display a popup in the notification bar or on the screen itself.
