Answer 1

Download and paste the 'org.apache.http.legacy.jar file' into the project / application / libs

and add the dependencies to 'build.gradle'

if in your dependencies below gradle below line than not add another line to add jar file to project.

compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])

testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'

no need to import commons-logging-1.2.jar file
