One problem you have is you are attempting to update the screen (message) from a background thread. Use AsyncTask.publishProgress(...) to let the main thread update the GUI in its onProgressUpdate() method.

This doesn't address the HTTP issue, but clear this up first to be sure you are not causing a hang by changing the screen in a background thread.
