HttpClient was deprecated in API Level 22 and removed in API Level 23. You can still use it in API Level 23 and onwards if you must, however it is best to move to supported methods to handle HTTP. So, if you're compiling with 23, add this in your build.gradle: android { useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy' }

and

HttpClient is not supported any more in sdk 23. You have to use URLConnection or downgrade to sdk 22 (compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.0')

If you need sdk 23, add this to your gradle:

android { useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy' } You also may try to download and include HttpClient jar directly into your project or use OkHttp instead

... which indeed works!
