Answer 1

Ran into something similar and had a fix I'm trying that I added to another question

---

I ran into a similar issue today and just started using HttpClient for Android

1. Added dependency compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient-android:4.3.5.1' to build.gradle.
2. Replace new DefaultHttpClient() with HttpClientBuilder.create().build()

There are probably some other minor refactors you might need to make in other portions of the code, but that should be pretty straight forward.

Answer 2

Give something like this a go, i had similar problem on MotoX running 6.0.1 but this seem to work for me.

 protected static final int HTTP_JSON_TIMEOUT_CONNECTION = 20000;
 protected static final int HTTP_JSON_TIMEOUT_SOCKET = 20000;

 CloseableHttpResponse response = null;
   try {
        UserPrefs.clearCacheFolder(mContext.getCacheDir());
        CloseableHttpClient httpClient = getApacheHttpClient();
        HttpPost httpPost = getHttpPost( invocation);

       response = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
    }catch (Exception e){
        e.printStackTrace();
    }


    protected CloseableHttpClient getApacheHttpClient(){
    try {
        // Socket config
        SocketConfig socketConfig = SocketConfig.custom()
                .setSoTimeout(HTTP_JSON_TIMEOUT_SOCKET)
                .build();
        // Auth
        CredentialsProvider credentialsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
        credentialsProvider.setCredentials(new AuthScope(URL, PORT, null, "Digest"),
                new UsernamePasswordCredentials(USERNAME,DIGEST_PASSWORD));
        // Build HttpClient
        return HttpClients.custom()
                .setDefaultSocketConfig(socketConfig)
                .setDefaultCredentialsProvider(credentialsProvider)
                .build();
    }catch (Exception e) {
        Log.i("ApacheHttpClientHelper", "ERROR >> "+e.getMessage());
        return null;
    }
}

Also stick this into the gradle under dependencies

  compile group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents' , name: 'httpclient-android' , version: '4.3.5.1'
