If you are seeing "java.net.SocketException : unknown error" when trying to use the network in Android it is probably the permissions. I know you have read this thread and you say you have the permission there, but I would triple check it and make sure it's correct.
I was getting this error message in a bunch of apps that were written pre 0.9/1.0 and as soon as I added the permission to them they started working again (the networking that is, I also had to make the other non network related API changes of course - but that stuff is unrelated to this message/issue). I was confounded by this error message for a while too, checking over my code that I knew worked from before, debugging, etc - really vague, unhelpful, that should be improved, but the network DOES work as expected once you have the proper permission.
