This client library is not particularly compatible with android.  What is the 
error
message you are getting? (stack trace).

Thanks for your feedback Khalid.  Since you are developing an Android 
application, please use 
the version 2.1 alpha client.  If you are still seeing the same problem on the 
version 2 
client, then please try to provide any stack trace you might be seeing in the 
"logcat".
