If you're using Apache HttpClient you can turn on logging, see "How to enable logging for apache commons HttpClient on Android". The options for logging are very flexible.

But Google's energy is going into HttpURLConnection (see "Android Developer's Blog: Android's HTTP Clients"), perhaps somebody else can suggestion good ways to turn on logging there. There's one idea at "HTTP Get Using Android HttpURLConnection" though that particular example would disrupt your service.

Then there's always WireShark.
