android urlconnection forces ssl - android

I am trying to connect to a server on port 8080 but AndroidHttpClient is forcing everything not on 8080 to use SSL. The offending code
URL url = new URL("http", "google.com", 8080, "");
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "*/*");
urlConnection.connect();
and this from Charles log.
note the URL field is using "https://"
now when I change the port to 80:
URL url = new URL("http", "google.com", 80, "");
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "*/*");
urlConnection.connect();
everything works fine:
I have no idea why it forces it to SSL when not on port 80. I had a similar issue with AndroidHttClient as well as DefaultHttpClient. Seems to be an issue with Android.

HttpURLConnection not allowing me to post when I have https:// in the URL

How can I get POST request to work with an "https:" url?
In the following example when I set the URL to "https" instead of "http" the HttpURLConnection automatically makes my request a "GET" ?! while when it was a regular http request it was a POST...
URL url = new URL("*https:*//www.google.com");
// URL url = new URL("*http:*//www.google.com");
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
try {
urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
urlConnection.setChunkedStreamingMode(0);
OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(urlConnection.getOutputStream());
//writeStream(out);
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
// readStream(in);
}finally {
urlConnection.disconnect();
}

Error with facebook connections in android

I have a problem with facebook.
In connection i have:
URL url = new URL("https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo?access_token="+ token);
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
int sc = con.getResponseCode();
and I get:
java.net.UnknownHostException: Unable to resolve host "www.googleapis.com": No address associated with hostname
I have all permissions in manifest like:access_network and Internet.

I resolve my problem:
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
con.setReadTimeout(10000 /* milliseconds */);
con.setConnectTimeout(15000 /* milliseconds */);
con.setRequestMethod("GET");
con.setDoInput(true);
// Starts the query
con.connect();
int sc = con.getResponseCode();

url.openConnection() does not open the connection to the server

I'm going to use HttpUrlConnection for calling a WebAPI. I simply call url.OpenConnectionMethod() to open the connection, but it doesn't work. Both allowUserInteraction and client.connected values of HtpUrlConnection instance are false.
URL url = new URL("http://myserver/service/api/ads/getads");
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
any help would be appreciated.

Try this:
URL url = new URL("http://yourserver/x/y/z");
URLConnection urlConnection = url.openConnection();
if this doesn't work can I see any exceptions?
