Android NetworkOnMainThreadException [duplicate]

Answer 1

You are not allowed to do network operations with the Main (UI) thread.

There are several ways of using background threads. I would recommend using AsyncTask since it has a nice structure which is easy to understand.

Here is an SO example also: AsyncTask Android example

Should be a lot more available on Google.
