Sorry folks, just turned out that the error was on the Rest service. I had change it and now it receives a String instead of the Reader object and it works as expected, the REST endpoint code on the server side now is:

@POST
@Path("/cadastrar/{userEmail}")
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public String cadastraPeso(@PathParam("userEmail") String email, String jsonString)
{
        String json = jsonString;
        if(json != null)
        {
            log.debug("String json received from device ==>> " + json);
        }   
        return "OK - processed email ==>> " + email;
}

And the JSON string is correctly received on server side.

So de Android code above is working as expected.
