Answer 1

based on documentation:

Have you tried using the method getIssuedBy().getDName() of class SslCertificate. This method returns a String representing "The entity that issued this certificate".

Take a look here: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/http/SslCertificate.html#getIssuedBy()

Then you just need to know wich string is returned when it is self signed.

EDIT: I think that if it is selfsigned, that should return empty string, and if not, it would return the entity
