Http Client returning null after signing the APK

Question

I am developing an android application which uses web services that has https protocol in its url.

And I'm doing a GET request to that service.

The strange part is when I compile my android apk with debug keystore the webservice is returning expected results and when I sign my apk with release keystore the webservice is always returning me error with null message.

Please help me on this.

More Info:

The url parameter contains Korean words
UTF-8 Encoding is followed
I'm using keytool for signing process
I didn't zipalign it

What are you using to sign it? The wizard from inside eclipse? Have you tried to create a different key?

I am using Keytool to sign it – Sivakumar S Sep 26 '12 at 05:57
I created Keystore from command prompt. Yes i Tried with another key and it doesn't work – Sivakumar S Sep 26 '12 at 05:58
you could try to do it with the eclipse wizard. what do you mean also that the url parameter contains korean words? korean characters? urls always contain out of latin characters only. – SunnySonic Sep 26 '12 at 06:00
The GET request param contains Korean Characters – Sivakumar S Sep 26 '12 at 06:02
most probably it is an encoding issue. you will have to define something else than UTF-8. Check out this post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9430982/read-non-english-characters-from-http-get-request – SunnySonic Sep 26 '12 at 06:07
