Answer 1

When i run this app on emulator i am using internet and behind proxy and thats why it is throwing exception, when i use direct connection it works fine, some thing bad with proxy i guess.

Answer 2

You can use the below mentioned code to access network behind proxy using Emulator.

client = getHttpClient();
client.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(
      new AuthScope(null, -1, null), 
      new UsernamePasswordCredentials("Username", "Password"));
HttpHost httpproxy = new HttpHost("hostname", "portname", "http");
client.getParams().setParameter(ConnRoutePNames.DEFAULT_PROXY, httpproxy);
