The host name may not be null, including HTTP in Android

I have this code in asynctask:

try 
        {
            Log.d("API", "URL: "+URL.trim());   
            StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
            HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();        
            HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(new URI(URL));
            httpGet.setHeader("Accept","application/json");
            httpGet.setHeader("Content-Type","application/json");


            Log.d("API", "URL Host: "+httpGet.getURI().getHost());
            Log.d("API", "URL Path: "+httpGet.getURI().getPath());

            Log.d("API", "URL: "+URL.trim());       

                HttpResponse response = client.execute(httpGet);
                StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
                int statusCode = statusLine.getStatusCode();
                if (statusCode == 200) 
                {
                    httpentity entity = response.getEntity();
                    InputStream content = entity.getContent();
                    BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(content));
                    String line;
                    while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) 
                    {
                        builder.append(line);
                    }
                    ArrayList<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
                    nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id","2"));       
                    if ( builder.toString().length()>0)
                    {                               
                        Log.v("API", builder.toString());   
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        Log.e("API", "Respuesta vacia");    
                    }
                } 
                else 
                {
                    Log.e("API", "Status code != 200");
                } 

        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
            Log.e("API", "Error >> "+e.getMessage());           
        }

Thank you. Common causes of this error do not include "http: / /", but I'm doing it!

I also tried httpget httpget = new httpget (URL); And the same URL, but with post and put

resolvent:

Not entirely sure why, but if you replace

new HttpGet(new URI(URL));

adopt

new HttpGet(URL);

You shouldn't have this problem

edit

It's not a problem. Obviously you don't support '', As you suggested in your comments:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-911

Obviously, you really shouldn't underline the host name
