If you need a code sample:

String response = null;

    httppost = new HttpPost(URL_STRING);
    httppost.setParams(httpParams);

    String s = your_XML_Data_As_String_Or_JSON_Or_Whatever;

    try {

        StringEntity entity = new StringEntity(s);
        httppost.setEntity(entity);
        httppost.addHeader("Content-Type", "SomeMIMEType");

        response = httpclient.execute(httppost, handler);
        } catch (Exception e){
            e.printStackTrace }
