How to execute many RxJava2 flux in a row

I'm introducing myself about RxJava2, but i feel like i'm doing something wrong. In my case, i want to do some following asynchronous actions.

In this example, the first action is to check if the device is connected (wifi or data, let's admit it take time), then i want to connect to an api and then i want to do a http call for get a list (observable) and then work with it. If one of those operation fail, an onError or exception should be raised and handled in the subscribe.

I have this code who works:

Single.create((SingleEmitter<Boolean> e) -> e.onSuccess(Connectivity.isDeviceConnected(MainActivity.this)) )
    .subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
    .flatMap(isDeviceConnected -> {
        Log.i("LOG", "isDeviceConnected : "+ isDeviceConnected);
        if(!isDeviceConnected)
            throw new Exception("whatever"); // TODO : Chercher vrai erreur

        return awRepository.getFluxAuthenticate(host, port, user, password); // Single<DisfeApiAirWatch>
    })
    .toObservable()
    .flatMap(awRepository::getFluxManagedApps)  // List of apps : Observable<AirwatchApp>

    .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
    .doFinally(this::hideProgressDialog)
    .subscribe(
            app -> Log.i("LOG", "OnNext : "+ app),
            error -> Log.i("LOG", "Error : " + error),
            () -> Log.i("LOG", "Complete : ")
);

But do a single who emmit a boolean for a simple "if" sounds wrong. A Completable seems more logical (work or not, continue or stop). I tried with the following code but it's not working.

Completable.create((CompletableEmitter e) -> {
    if(Connectivity.isDeviceConnected(MainActivity.this))
        e.onComplete(); // Guess not good, should call the complete of subscribe ?
    else
        e.onError(new Exception("whatever"));
} ).toObservable()
    .subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
    .flatMap(awRepository.getFluxAuthenticate(host, port, user, password)) //Single<DisfeApiAirWatch>
    .toObservable()
    .flatMap(awRepository::getFluxManagedApps) // List of apps : Observable<AirwatchApp>

    .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
    .doFinally(this::hideProgressDialog)
    .subscribe(
            app -> Log.i("LOG", "OnNext : "+ app),
            error -> Log.i("LOG", "Error : " + error),
            () -> Log.i("LOG", "Complete : ")
);

How to make this code work ?

I know i can do a first subscribe on the complatable and in the "onSuccess" of this one write another flux / the rest of the code. But i don't think stack flows inside each other is a good solution.

Best regards

Completable has no value so flatMap will never be invoked. You have to use andThen and make the authentication success value the input for the subsequent flatMap:

Completable.create((CompletableEmitter e) -> {
    if(Connectivity.isDeviceConnected(MainActivity.this))
        e.onComplete();
    else
       e.onError(new Exception("whatever"));
})
.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
.andThen(awRepository.getFluxAuthenticate(host, port, user, password)) // <-----------
.flatMapObservable(awRepository::getFluxManagedApps)
.observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
.doFinally(this::hideProgressDialog)
.subscribe(
        app -> Log.i("LOG", "OnNext : "+ app),
        error -> Log.i("LOG", "Error : " + error),
        () -> Log.i("LOG", "Complete : ")

);
