Well, but will the read of InputStream blocked when there is no
incoming data?
I mean... for example:

I run the sock in specific thread, because those methods' call will
blocked. The code might like this:

/// This is the socket thread for checking data
while not stop:
    data = read(); // if no incoming data, we will blocked here

The client program needs to check the data from sever, so it run a
loop to read data. And how about outgoing data? Can I send out going
data from another thread? like this.

// this is called from UI thread
void onClick() {
    outputStream.write("hello baby!");
}
