Answer 1

It seems out that Retrofit's use of Gson by default makes it easy to add a custom deserialize to handle the portion of the JSON document that was the problem.

Sample code

@FormUrlEncoded
    @POST(GlobalVariables.LOGIN_URL)
    void Login(@Field("email") String key, @Field("password") String value, Callback callback);

getService().Login(email, password, new MyCallback(context, true, null)
{
    @Override
    public void failure(RetrofitError arg0)
     {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        UtilitySingleton.dismissDialog((BaseActivity) context);
        System.out.println(arg0.getResponse());
      }

    @Override
    public void success(Response arg0, Response arg1)
    {
         String result = null;
         StringBuilder sb = null;
         InputStream is = null;
         try
         {
                is = arg1.getBody().in();
                BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
                sb = new StringBuilder();
                String line = null;
                while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
                {
                    sb.append(line + "\n");
                    result = sb.toString();
                    System.out.println("Result :: " + result);
                }
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    });
