I think your code is right. but try this to access string from HttpEntity: String response_str =EntityUtils.toString(responseEntity, HTTP.UTF_8);

like i used in my method:

    public String SetObjectSecurity(String username, String password,
        String clientName,String docRid,String ObjectRidsForCheckSum) throws JSONException, ClientProtocolException, IOException
{
    String SetObjectSecurityURL = "url";
    StringEntity str_request_entity = null;
    HttpResponse http_response = null;

    HttpGet getrequest = new HttpGet(SetObjectSecurityURL);
    postrequest.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
    postrequest.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
//set param here


    HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();

    http_response = httpClient.execute(getrequest);

    //Log.e("Status code ",http_response);
    HttpEntity responseEntity = http_response.getEntity();

    String response_str =EntityUtils.toString(responseEntity, HTTP.UTF_8);
    Log.e("output",response_str);
    int i = http_response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
    Log.e("status","code "+i);


if(i==this){

do this}
else
{
this
}       
        return response_str;
        }
