Answer 1

I assume you are trying to access web service available on your PC from either an android simulator or a real device.

For an android emulator, you must NOT just use "localhost", because "localhost" means android emulator itself, NOT the host PC.

you need modify the /etc/hosts file or the simulator or real device. add a line like "192.168.0.100 service.local".

Answer 2

if you are using your phone instead of emulator and running services on localhost then in url instead of '10.0.2.2' use IP address of your PC.

Answer 3

Just Install the "conveyor by Keyoti" the extension in Visual studio and it will generate a url according to your ip address automatically. here's the link:

so far so good....!
