From https://github.com/CUTR-at-USF/OpenTripPlanner-for-Android/issues/396#issuecomment-169505686:

Mapquest has activated a developer key requirement for Nominatim,etc use during the 4th quarter of last year. But it's limited to 15,000 transactions per month. https://developer.mapquest.com/plan_purchase/steps/business_edition/business_edition_free

We need to grab an API key for OTP Android and add this to the request.
