Answer 1

it's possible that your problem is what your url's were resolved via "https". you must convert all string urls to "http" and it will work.

EDIT:

SchemeRegistry schemeRegistry = new SchemeRegistry ();

schemeRegistry.register (new Scheme ("http",
    PlainSocketFactory.getSocketFactory (), 80));
schemeRegistry.register (new Scheme ("https",
    new CustomSSLSocketFactory (), 443));

ThreadSafeClientConnManager cm = new ThreadSafeClientConnManager (
    params, schemeRegistry);

return new DefaultHttpClient (cm, params);

CustomSSLSocketFactory:

public class CustomSSLSocketFactory extends org.apache.http.conn.ssl.SSLSocketFactory
{
    private SSLSocketFactory FACTORY = HttpsURLConnection.getDefaultSSLSocketFactory ();

    public CustomSSLSocketFactory ()
    {
        super(null);
        try
        {
            SSLContext context = SSLContext.getInstance ("TLS");
            TrustManager[] tm = new TrustManager[] { new FullX509TrustManager () };
            context.init (null, tm, new SecureRandom ());

            FACTORY = context.getSocketFactory ();
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    public Socket createSocket() throws IOException
    {
        return FACTORY.createSocket();
    }

    // TODO: add other methods like createSocket() and getDefaultCipherSuites().
    // Hint: they all just make a call to member FACTORY 
}

FullX509TrustManager is a class that implements javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager, yet none of the methods actually perform any work, get a sample [here][1].

Good Luck!
