D/AvailableShippingMethods﹕ shoppingCartShippingMethodEntityArray{item=shoppingCartShippingMethodEntity{code=flatrate_error; carrier=flatrate; carrier_title=Flat Rate; price=0; }; }

below is the code which sets Shipping method to the CartId

 SoapObject shippingmethod = new SoapObject(MAGENTO_NAMESPACE, "shoppingCartShippingMethod");
 shippingmethod.addProperty("sessionId", sessionId);
 shippingmethod.addProperty("quoteId", quoteId);
 shippingmethod.addProperty("shippingMethod", "flatrate_error");//Code for Flatrate shipping method and it is enabled in magento site
 env.setOutputSoapObject(shippingmethod);
 androidHttpTransport.call("", env);
 Log.d("shippingMethod", shippingmethod.toString());

I know it is too late to answer... but it may help someone in future...

The problem is in the documentation of magento soap v2... When I have gone through the wsdl link, I have noticed somthing as below...

<message name="shoppingCartShippingMethodRequest">
<part name="sessionId" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="quoteId" type="xsd:int"/>
<part name="method" type="xsd:string"/>
<part name="storeId" type="xsd:string"/>
</message>

As u can see, there's property method. Actually, there we have to add the shipping method... So u have to change ur code as below...

SoapObject shippingmethod = new SoapObject(MAGENTO_NAMESPACE,"shoppingCartShippingMethod");
shippingmethod.addProperty("sessionId", sessionId);
shippingmethod.addProperty("quoteId", quoteId);
shippingmethod.addProperty("method", "flatrate_error");
env.setOutputSoapObject(shippingmethod);
androidHttpTransport.call("", env);
Log.d("shippingMethod", shippingmethod.toString());
Object resultforShippingMethod = env.getResponse();
Log.d("ShippingMethod", resultforShippingMethod.toString());
