For httpclient, the easiest way is to initialize this SocketFactory
with your keystore, and use it create the HttpClient instance.
You need to have your keystore as a raw resource in the apk.
Search the list for more details, there are some examples, IIRC.

For HttpsUrlConnection, the procedure is similar, initialize
a socket factory and set it to your connection instance.
