javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Handshake failed on Android 5.0.0 when SSLv2 and SSlv3 are disabled (TLS only) (and greater)

Question

This is my first post and I\'m going to try to do my best to be as clear as possible (sorry for my english).

Here is my trouble, I\'m using retrofit:1.9.0 and okhttp

Answer 1

I found the solution here in this link.

You just have to place below code in your Android application class. And that is enough. Don't need to do any changes in your Retrofit settings. It saved my day.

public class MyApplication extends Application {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();
    try {
      // Google Play will install latest OpenSSL 
      ProviderInstaller.installIfNeeded(getApplicationContext());
      SSLContext sslContext;
      sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("TLSv1.2");
      sslContext.init(null, null, null);
      sslContext.createSSLEngine();
    } catch (GooglePlayServicesRepairableException | GooglePlayServicesNotAvailableException
        | NoSuchAlgorithmException | KeyManagementException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Hope this will be of help. Thank you.
