WHAT I NEED: get JSON results through HTTPS connection
WHAT I HAVE: shared server with valid SSL certificate
WHAT I WANT: be able to establish that HTTPS connection, which I can't because when I chaneg my code with the online examples I found, it never works...
DETAILS:
I have been searching for days a solution, but I find many different things and already tried a lot of different combinations in my code and nothing worked. :(
I'm used to develop in PHP, MySQL, CSS, HTML but only recently I started with Android (java) and I had never developed anything at all (not even a "Hello world!").
I wanted a simple APP and I hired someone in freelancer (excelent Indian guy, actually... I consider myself lucky on this one).
So, I recently bought an SSL/TLS certificate for my website, which is on a shared server, and I want to change my code on my APP to be able to connect through HTTPS and make that a safe connection to the webservice I have developed in PHP.
Everything is working perfectly with HTTP requests but when I try some different HTTPS recommendations that I found online, nothing worked. :(
Could never reach a conclusion about this. lol
Here is my code of one in some 30 different screens:
