Use the KSoap library, this is a codesnippet from my project:

SoapObject soapObject = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE_NIST_IMPORT,
                METHOD_NAME_NIST_IMPORT);

        ImportNistFileReq nistReq = new ImportNistFileReq(nistFile);

        PropertyInfo pi = new PropertyInfo();
        pi.setName("req");
        pi.setValue(nistReq);
        pi.setType(nistReq.getClass());
        soapObject.addProperty(pi);


        SoapSerializationEnvelope soapSerializationEnvelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);

        new MarshalBase64().register(soapSerializationEnvelope);

        soapSerializationEnvelope.setOutputSoapObject(soapObject);

        soapSerializationEnvelope.addMapping(NAMESPACE_NIST_IMPORT, "ImportNistFileReq", new ImportNistFileReq().getClass());


        soapSerializationEnvelope.dotNet = true;
        Object objectResult = null;

        try {
            HttpTransportSE httpTransportSE = new HttpTransportSE(
                    URL_NIST_IMPORT);

            httpTransportSE.debug = true;
            httpTransportSE.call(SOAP_ACTION_NIST_IMPORT, soapSerializationEnvelope);

            String host = httpTransportSE.getPath();
            Log.i("HOST: ", host);

            objectResult = (Object) soapSerializationEnvelope.getResponse();


        } catch (IOException e) {
            Log.e("IO: ", e.getMessage());
        } catch (XmlPullParserException e) {
            Log.e("XML: ", e.getMessage());
        }

This piece of code sends a NIST File represented as a byte array encoded as Byte64 to a Webservice. Request like this one should be called in a separated thread like an AsyncTask..

The constants:

NAMEPSPACE_NIST_IMPORT
METHOD_NAME_NIST_IMPORT
URL_NIST_IMPORT
SOAP_ACTION_NIST_IMPORT

Refers to the wsdl file provided by my .NET service. A great tutorial is this one. If something is unclear, just ask. Good luck.

sorry I'm a newbie in java and android. How can I know if I can post request the data in soap service and response it in my application? If I use your suggestion. — JAL, Oct 17 '12 at 10:36
If you are a newbie, this is pretty hard way to start your programming career..I started out with the example on the link I provided in my post, just to check if I could post some data to the webservice. You should try that aswell. **How can I know if I can post request the data in soap service and response it in my application?** This is defined by the `wsdl` file. Look in this file : http://www.w3schools.com/webservices/tempconvert.asmx?WSDL which is the wsdl file for the example.. — Tobias Moe Thorstensen, Oct 17 '12 at 11:16
