The code pasted below has been successfully tested on several phones
running Gingerbread, ICS, and Jelly Bean. However when testing on a
friends Samsung 4GLTE model SCH-1200 (verison) the code fails.
The post throws an exception and in the Catch, the log throws a null
Pointer exception.
I examined the contents of the myPost and it all looks valid.
What could be wrong with this phone? Could the owner have something turned
off that might cause this? The phone is not in airplane mode
This code is running in an Activity.
Thanks Gary
