The current implementation of WebView already allows you to add headers using the following syntax:

Map<String, String> headers = new HashMap<String, String>();
headers.put("Accept-Language", "fr_fr");
mWebView.loadUrl("http://developer.android.com", headers);

See WebView.loadUrl() for more information.

[`Override`](http://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_overriding.htm) is the wrong keyword in this context. Instead you are adding additional headers. – Graeme Oct 17 '12 at 14:49
Thanks, replaced by overload :) – Jaffa Oct 18 '12 at 10:21
