Answer 1

I coded a web services in .NET an then used ksoap2 in my android application to send data to my server.

Look at ksoap2-android:

I suggest to add this library:

https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/ksoap2-android-releases/com/google/code/ksoap2-android/ksoap2-android-assembly/3.0.0/ksoap2-android-assembly-3.0.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar

that carries also all dependencies.

            HttpResponse response = client.execute(httpGet);  
            HttpEntity resEntity = response.getEntity();  
            if (resEntity != null) {  
                        //parse response.
                        Log.e("Response",EntityUtils.toString(resEntity));

try this:

HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://floating-wildwood-1154.herokuapp.com/posts/create_a_post");

// Add Headers
httppost.addHeader("key1", "value1");
httppost.addHeader("key2", "value2");

try {
    // Add your data
    List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
    nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("content", valueIWantToSend));
    httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
    // Execute HTTP Post Request
    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
