JSON from restful web service

Question

I created a restful web service in php using the slim framework. One of the functions returns a dynamically created multidimensional array and encodes it as a JSON array like this

[{  
    "hid":100001,
    "SubTable":"grpsubs",
    "StatTable":"grpstats",
    "uid":2,
    "Status":"G"
},
{  
    "hid":100002,
    "SubTable":"gtmsubs",
    "StatTable":"gtmstats",
    "uid":2,
    "Status":"R"
}]

In my android app I use the loopj framework to get the restful output like this

AsyncHttpClient client = new AsyncHttpClient();
client.addHeader("Authorization", key);
client.post("https://mythic-beanbag-106723.appspot.com/v1/mine", params, new AsyncHttpResponseHandler() {
    // When the response returned by REST has Http response code '200'
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(String response) {
        // Hide Progress Dialog
        hospDialog.hide();
        Log.e("Response", response);
        try {

            JSONArray array = new JSONArray(response);
            Log.e("array", String.valueOf(array.length()));

        } catch (JSONException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Error Occurred [Server's JSON response might be invalid]!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            e.printStackTrace();

        }
    }

Using the Advanced REST Client in chrome I can see the JSON however in my app when I try outputting the JSON in the console Log.e("Response", response); it shows up as an empty array []. This code works for my Login function and in php if instead of using a dynamically created array I use a static array like array("abc"=>array("def"=>"ghi"), "jkl"=>array("mno"=>"pqr")) the above code does output the JSON array.

UPDATE:

params

RequestParams params = new RequestParams();
params.put("uid", prefs.getInt("uid", 0));
