Android - android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException

Question

NetworkOnMainThreadException: The exception that is thrown when an application attempts to perform a networking operation on its main thread.

You should call sendfeedback method on asynctask then only above code will work. As webserver is taking lot of time to response main thread becomes unresponsive. To avoid it you should call it on another thread. Hence asynctask is better.

here is link that illustrates how to use asynctask

NetworkOnMainThreadException is thrown when your app tries networking operation in main thread.

To fix that you can use a private inner class within your Activity that extends android.os.AsyncTask<Params, Progress, Result> which will do the server call stuffs.

Something as,

private class SendfeedbackJob extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {

    @Override
    protected String doInBackground(String[] params) {
        // do above Server call here
        return "some message";
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(String message) {
        //process message
    }
}

And then invoke above class from submit.setOnClickListener as below,

SendfeedbackJob job = new SendfeedbackJob();
job.execute(pass, email);

AsyncTask Android example

if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 9) {
    StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder().permitAll().build();
    StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
}

 try 
    {  
        HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("myUrl");

        // no idea what this does :)
        httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(postParameters));

        // This is the line that send the request
        HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);

        HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();            

        InputStream is = entity.getContent();
    } 
    catch (Exception e) 
    {     
        Log.e("log_tag", "Error in http connection "+e.toString());
    }        

Here is your problem. Since api 11, this exception will inform you that you are running long tasks on the ui thread (the http communication in your class), and according with the new StrictGuard policy this is not possibile. So you have two different choice

1. Use thread or aynctask in order to execut yout long term task (better way)

You made network call on main thread which is against to android rules, so you have to do your network call on separate thread like asynctask or handler etc.

You can just create Async class as below

class Retrievedata extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
@Override
    protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
         try{
                //Your code 
                }
        return null;
    }
}

You can just put your all code inside doInBackground method
