You do realize that services run on the main UI thread by default? You're not gaining anything by having this code in a service because it can block the activity which is running on the same thread, and you can't pass the results back directly to the calling activity. You might as well run your HTTP request in an AsyncTask, ask the user to please wait, and report the results when it's done. Unless, of course, you really do need a service for some reason.
