reading JSON data from php file in android application

i am just a beginner in developing android applications, i wanted to connect my application to a server so i could get data from MySQL. so i tried to make login part first but i have some problems. my code doesn't work for reading JSON.
my codes are as below:
LoginActivity(MainActivity) :
package ir.naserpour.sportclub;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Typeface;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;
import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import uk.co.chrisjenx.calligraphy.CalligraphyContextWrapper;
public class LoginActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
String link;
String response;
//get values
String username,password;
#Override
protected void attachBaseContext (Context newBase){
super.attachBaseContext(CalligraphyContextWrapper.wrap(newBase));
}
#Override
protected void onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);
//define things
TextView menu = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.menu);
final EditText login_username = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.login_username);
final EditText login_password = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.login_password);
Button login_login = (Button) findViewById(R.id.login_login);
Button login_register = (Button)findViewById(R.id.login_register);
CheckBox rememberme = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.login_remeberme);
//set icon type face
Typeface fonticon = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/icon.ttf");
menu.setTypeface(fonticon);
login_login.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
username = login_username.getText().toString();
password = login_password.getText().toString();
//check values
if (username.length() <1 || password.length() < 1) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "fields cannot be empty", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
//generate link
link = "http://localhost:8080/login.php?username="+username+"&password="+password;
login();
if(response=="true"){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "true", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else if(response=="false"){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "false", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "response", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
});
}

// Getting JSON from URL
JSONObject json = jParser.getJSONFromUrl(link);
return json;
}
#Override
public void onPostExecute(JSONObject json) {
try {
JSONArray result = json.getJSONArray("result");
JSONObject c = result.getJSONObject(0);
try {
String res = new String(c.getString("response").getBytes("ISO-8859-1"), "UTF-8");
response = res;
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} catch (JSONException e) {

}
}
}

try {

} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
}
// return JSON String
return jObj;
}
}
and also my login.php script:
<?php
define("HOST","localhost");
define("USERNAME","root");
define("PASSWORD","");
define("NAME","users");
$con = mysqli_connect(HOST,USERNAME,PASSWORD,NAME);
$username = $_GET["username"];
$password = $_GET["password"];
$sql = "SELECT * FROM userinfo WHERE username ='$username' AND password='$password'";
$check = mysqli_fetch_array(mysqli_query($con,$sql));
if(isset($check)){
echo '{"result":[{"response":"true"}]}';
}else{
echo '{"result":[{"response":"false"}]}';
}
mysqli_close($con);
?>
i would be so happy if i find out the problem. thank you.

see this tutorial :
its a full tutorial about login process using google volley

First : On device side, Use volley, its simple and easy to use
Second : On server, what is {"result":[{"response":"true"}]}
any problem with {"result":true} ??
Last but not the least : Did you use JSON before or this code is trial and error copy paste from some tutorials?

I need an universal method that works in own thread and that I can call from anywhere. This method must be able to change objects on the activity that call it and show toasts.
How I can solve my problem? ASyncTask?

Julia Hexen, your solution has not results, application also crash.
I had solved my problem. Before create a new thread I was created Handler:
final Handler handler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(android.os.Message msg) {
// здесь все обращения к интерфейсу
Toast.makeText(context, res, 3).show();
}
};
Finally, in the end of the code of a new thread I call method:
handler.sendEmptyMessage(0);

Consuming Restful WCF Service in Android

I am not sure what causing the request not to execute. I was trying to call a WCF Restful service in android, and I receive the error message "Request Error". Looking at the example, I don't see any reason why this example should not work. See below:
Here is the .Net Service:
[ServiceContract]
public interface ISampleService
{
[OperationContract]
[WebInvoke(
Method="POST", UriTemplate="/Login", BodyStyle= WebMessageBodyStyle.WrappedRequest, ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
string Login(string value);
}
public class SampleService : ISampleService
{
public string Login(string value)
{
string t = "";
try
{
//foreach (string s in value)
//{
// t = s;
//}
return t;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
return e.ToString();
}
}

I finally got it to work they way that I want it to. The issue was that I was building the Array this way (see below section 1) and pass it to the JSONObject or JSONArray. I switched and build the Array using JSONArray and pass it to the JSONObject (see section 2). It works like a charm.
Section1: Wrong way to do it - (It may work this way if you were to look through the array and put them in a JSONArray. It's will be too much work when it can be done directly.)
String[][] Array = {
new String[]{"Example", "Test"},
new String[]{"Example", "Test"},
};
JSONArray jar1 = new JSONArray();
jar1.put(0, Array);
// Did not work
Section 2: The way I did it after long hours of trying and some very helpful tips and hints from #vorrtex.
**JSONArray jar1 = new JSONArray();
jar1.put(0, "ABC");
jar1.put(1, "Son");
jar1.put(2, "Niece");**
**JSONArray jarr = new JSONArray();
jarr.put(0, jar1);**
JSONArray j = new JSONArray();
j.put(0,"session");
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject();
obj.put("value", jarr);
obj.put("test", j);
obj.put("name","myName");
Log.d("Obj.ToString message: ",obj.toString());
StringEntity entity = new StringEntity(obj.toString());
Looking at the web service, and it has exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks for you help!!!!

Android php+mysql+json error implementing AsyncTask

Im new to Android and I need a little help. I have a class witch values from one table located on remote mysql and its working fine on 2.3 but on 4.x Im getting errors when I start it. I have read somewhere its because I`m not using AsyncTask.

HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(

httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(
(List<? extends NameValuePair>) nameValuePairs));
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
is = entity.getContent();
} catch (Exception e) {

try {

r.add(json_data.getString("names"));
}
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.names_row, r));

And then I tried to add AsyncTask, according to some tutorials found online, and it`s looking like this:
package com.stole.fetchtest;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.ArrayList;

import org.json.JSONObject;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.net.ParseException;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class FetchData extends ListActivity {
String result = null;
InputStream is = null;
StringBuilder sb = null;
ArrayList<?> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<Object>();
List<String> r = new ArrayList<String>();
#Override

new task().execute();
}
public class task extends AsyncTask<String, String, Void> {
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(String... params) {
try {
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://www.url.com/fetch.php");
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(
(List<? extends NameValuePair>) nameValuePairs));
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
is = entity.getContent();
} catch (Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), e.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(is, "iso-8859-1"));
sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
is.close();
result = sb.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), e.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Void v) {
try {
JSONArray jArray = new JSONArray(result);
JSONObject json_data = null;
for (int i = 0; i < jArray.length(); i++) {
json_data = jArray.getJSONObject(i);
r.add(json_data.getString("naziv"));
}
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.names_row, r));
} catch (JSONException e1) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), e1.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (ParseException e1) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), e1.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
}
The error I`m getting is at
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.names_row, r));
and it says "The constructor ArrayAdapter(FetchData.task, int, List) is undefined"
Thanks!

it should use the activity context not the task context..
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(FetchData.this, R.layout.names_row, r));
