Hey I’m having a big issue with my android App. I’m currently updating it and I switched from API 8 to API 10 and the following block of code doesn’t work anymore …

URL url = new URL(PingUrl);
URLConnection Conn = url.openConnection();
Conn.setConnectTimeout(4000);
int Size = 2048;
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(Conn.getInputStream()), Size);
String line = null;
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
    JSONObject jo = new JSONObject(line);
    String timeStamp = jo.getString("timestamp");
    //Log.i("Value",timeStamp);
}
input.close();
result = true;

It crashes @ BufferedReader … anyone got an idea ?

    I never faced that problem but I think the stacktrace is telling you what is wrong: NetworkOnMainThreadException

    Seems like android OS is forbidding a synchronous HTTP request on the main thread, because this will block the UI. So it seems to prevent you from making bad decisions (good idea I think). You should use an AsyncTask for network requests anyway.
