I started learn android last week, I don't know much

Answer 1

The JsonObjectRequest is extended JsonRequest which override getBody() method directly, so your getParam() would never invoke, I recommend you extend StringRequest instead of JsonObjectRequest.

your can check this answer for more details.

by the way, you've another choice : Netroid, that based Volley, offered more features at all.

Answer 2

If you want to send your Map as a Json object (you are using the class JsonObjectRequest), you should put it in the JsonobjectRequest constructor :

HashMap<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
params.put("email", "rm@test.com.br");
params.put("senha", "test");
params.put("X-API-TOKEN", "99KI9Gj68CgCf70deM22Ka64chef2C40Gm2lFJ2J0G9JkD0afd19MfacGf3FFm8CM1hG0eDiIk8");

JsonObjectRequest jsonObjReq = new JsonObjectRequest(url, new JSONObject(params), ..., ...);

See this tuto

Answer 3

this one worked for me (seen on Volley JsonObjectRequest Post parameters no longer work)

String url = "https://www.youraddress.com/";

Map<String, String> params = new HashMap();
params.put("first_param", 1);
params.put("second_param", 2);

JSONObject parameters = new JSONObject(params);

JsonObjectRequest jsonRequest = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.GET, url, parameters, new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
    @Override
    public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
        //TODO: handle success
    }
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
    @Override
    public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
        error.printStackTrace();
        //TODO: handle failure
    }
});

Volley.newRequestQueue(this).add(jsonRequest);
