I have same opinion with Nickolai.

Work around:

if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 9) {
    StrictMode.ThreadPolicypolicy=newStrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder().permitAll().build();
    StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);

I use this myself:

ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
response.getEntity().writeTo(out);
out.close();
