I had same problem, so i change to HTTPClient from Apache, follow a example:

HttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();

HttpPost request = new HttpPost("www.myurl-to-read");

RequestConfig requestConfig = RequestConfig.custom()
                              .setSocketTimeout(8000)
                              .setConnectTimeout(10000)
                              .setConnectionRequestTimeout(1000)
                              .build();

request.setConfig(requestConfig);

request.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");

HttpResponse  response = httpClient.execute(request);

HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
String result = EntityUtils.toString(entity, "UTF-8");
