            try {
                HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet("your_uri/test.json");

                HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
                // Set the timeout in milliseconds until a connection is established.
                // The default value is zero, that means the timeout is not used.
                int timeoutConnection = 5000;
                HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection);
                // Set the default socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT)
                // in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data.
                int timeoutSocket = 10000;
                HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket);

                HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();

                httpGet.setParams(httpParameters);

                HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpGet);

                HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();

                BufferedReader br = null;

                if(entity != null) {
                    Log.i("read", "nube");

                    br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(entity.getContent()));

                } else {
                    Log.i("read", "local");

                    AssetManager am = getApplicationContext().getAssets();
                    InputStream is = am.open("test.json");

                    br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
                }

                String line;
                String texto = "";

                while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
                    texto += line;
                }


            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
