Twitter Integration in android using twitter4j-4.0.1

Question

I am try to integrate twitter in android I have followed tutorial from following link http://www.androidhive.info/2012/09/android-twitter-oauth-connect-tutorial/

But I am facing an exception in loginwithTwitter function at these lines

ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
        builder.setOAuthConsumerKey(TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY);
        builder.setOAuthConsumerSecret(TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET);
        Configuration configuration = builder.build();
        TwitterFactory factory = new TwitterFactory(configuration);
        twitter = factory.getInstance();
        try {
            requestToken = twitter.getOAuthRequestToken(TWITTER_CALLBACK_URL);
            this.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
            Uri.parse(requestToken.getAuthenticationURL())));

        } catch (TwitterException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), e.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }

I got e.getMessage() as null and exception occures at this line

requestToken = twitter.getOAuthRequestToken(TWITTER_CALLBACK_URL);

Please help me solve this problem. I have also searched on internet and others queries like this on stackoverflow like Android twitter login not working and Twitter Login Authentication in Android? So kindly help me I am using twitter4j-4.0.1
