@hitko honestly didn't even know that was a thing, was trying to make an httprequest using volley, ended up using retrofit which worked fine for whatever reason

@gaurdianaq I didn't know that was a thing either until I saw your rant. But that's just how it is, nobody knows everything - what's important is that one doesn't just jump in and try to solve a problem with their existing knowledge. Sure it may eventually work, so does hammering a screw until you try to take it apart...
I just spent like 4 hours trying to figure out how to make a simple httprequest to the google directions api in android... nothing worked :( running it in a seperate thread, tweaking the address...
I'm sure there is something simple I'm missing... but I'm feeling broken and defeated right now...
They make it look so easy on the android
