QNetworkAccessManager not receiving data in Android, but works in Desktop

[kubark42]

I have a very simple GET request, which works fine in Desktop Qt, but no data is returned when I run it on Android:

QNetworkManager m_WebCtrl;
QNetworkReply reply;
QUrl url("http://www.google.com");
request.setUrl(url);
reply = m_WebCtrl.get(request);
 
// Infinite loop to watch the data come in
while (1) {
   qDebug()<< "Data! " << reply->bytesAvailable();
}

QNetworkManager m_WebCtrl;
QNetworkReply reply;
QUrl url("http://www.google.com");
request.setUrl(url);
reply = m_WebCtrl.get(request);

// Infinite loop to watch the data come in
while (1) {
   qDebug()<< "Data! " << reply->bytesAvailable();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The Android device has an IP address that is in the valid range. I don't see any errors with reply->error(). What can this be related to?

Edit: I should add that I'm using Qt 5.4 beta.
