I ve not met that particular package before  but it says it s for client-side HTTP authentication  which I ve been able to do on Android using the java net APIs  like so   Authenticator setDefault new Authenticator        protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication             return new PasswordAuthentication  myuser   mypass  toCharArray              HttpURLConnection c    HttpURLConnection  new URL url  openConnection    c setUseCaches false   c connect      Obviously your getPasswordAuthentication   should probably do something more intelligent than returning a constant   If you re trying to make a request with a body  e g  POST  with authentication  beware of Android issue 4326  I ve linked a suggested fix to the platform there  but there s a simple workaround if you only want Basic auth  don t bother with Authenticator  and instead do this   c setRequestProperty  Authorization    basic             Base64 encode  myuser mypass  getBytes    Base64 NO WRAP
