Contact Microsoft Support for Known Vault Access Issue
Since this is a documented bug affecting multiple OneDrive clients, Microsoft Support can manually intervene to restore your Personal Vault access.

Prepare your Microsoft account email address, a clear description of the 'no internet connection' error, and any documentation regarding your Microsoft 365 subscription.
Open a web browser and navigate to the official Microsoft Support website or use the 'Help and Feedback' section within the OneDrive app settings.
Provide your gathered details to the support agent, specifying that your Samsung Galaxy S22 is affected by the known Personal Vault access bug.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Personal Vault say 'no internet connection' when I have Wi-Fi?
This is a known authentication bug within the OneDrive app where it fails to properly detect the active network connection when verifying your identity for the Personal Vault.
Will clearing the OneDrive app data delete the files inside my Personal Vault?
No, clearing the app cache or data only removes temporary local files. Your actual documents remain safely encrypted on Microsoft's cloud servers.
Can I bypass the Android app error by using a computer?
Yes, often this bug is isolated to the mobile client. Logging into your OneDrive account through a web browser on a PC may allow you to access the Personal Vault normally.

Response times can vary, but support agents can typically investigate and restore Vault access within 24 to 48 hours after receiving your account and subscription details.
