Im trying to send an JSONObject over HTTPPost, however now Im receiving a 400 error.
I’ve been going through with the server coder, and making smaller and more concise calls with a less complicated JSON object, however I still receive the same 400 error.
How do I go about fixing it?

EDIT:
The switch part for setting the entity is there because I wasnt sure if the error is from the manner in which I was setting the entity, so after research, I created a switch to let me go through the different methods that the JSONObject can be encoded to the entity.
EDIT:
This came up in my logcat today:

I realized after some time the error came from the jObj variable in the doInBackground method.
I’m going to try to describe the error to the best of my abilities, and from what I have seen:
protected String doInBackground(JSONObject… jObj)
The JSONObject variable isn’t actually a JSONObject because of the ‘…’, so when I used
jObj.toString()it returned some weird sort of non-JSONObject looking string, almost like it wasn’t encoded. I would go back and past the string here, however I’ve already changed my code so much that I dont want to risk losing it.Thanks for everyone’s help!
