You can use HttpPost， there are methods to add Header to the Request.

DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); String url = "http://localhost"; HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);  httpPost.addHeader("header-name" , "header-value");  HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpPost);
