I'm using the Twitter oAuth system for an app of mine, specifically folllowing this tutorial: http://www.markhneedham.com/blog/2012/01/02/learning-android-authenticating-with-twitter-using-oauth/. I seem to be getting an error based on my callback URL and I just cannot find a solution or proper information anywhere on how to do this properly. My app's name is chirpee, ill post the code and errors, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Note: alot of tutorials have random twitter urls for the CALLBACKURL like "app://twitter" when i try to set them on my app page through twitter developers they are "invalid URL's". For the time being i have the CALLBACKURL set to http://crownseal.ca (random site) on both the developers page for my app and in the code.
package me.chirpee.tom;
import oauth.signpost.OAuthProvider;
import oauth.signpost.basic.DefaultOAuthProvider;
import oauth.signpost.commonshttp.CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;

import android.provider.SyncStateContract.Constants;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;

import android.widget.Toast;
public class Chirpee extends Activity
{
//variables
private String CALLBACKURL = "http://crownseal.ca";
private String consumerKey = "----";
private String consumerSecret = "----";
private OAuthProvider httpOauthprovider = new DefaultOAuthProvider("https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token", "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token", "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize");
private CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer httpOauthConsumer = new CommonsHttpOAuthConsumer(consumerKey, consumerSecret);
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Button oauth = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
oauth.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
public void onClick(View v)
{
try
{
String authUrl = httpOauthprovider.retrieveRequestToken(httpOauthConsumer, CALLBACKURL);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(authUrl));
v.getContext().startActivity(intent);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Log.w("oauth fail", e);
Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), e.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});//end onClickListener()
}//end onCreate()
@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
super.onNewIntent(intent);
Log.w("redirect-to-app", "going to save the key and secret");
Uri uri = intent.getData();
if (uri != null && uri.toString().startsWith(CALLBACKURL)) {
String verifier = uri.getQueryParameter(oauth.signpost.OAuth.OAUTH_VERIFIER);
try {
// this will populate token and token_secret in consumer
httpOauthprovider.retrieveAccessToken(httpOauthConsumer, verifier);
String userKey = httpOauthConsumer.getToken();
String userSecret = httpOauthConsumer.getTokenSecret();
// Save user_key and user_secret in user preferences and return
SharedPreferences settings = getBaseContext().getSharedPreferences("your_app_prefs", 0);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
editor.putString("user_key", userKey);
editor.putString("user_secret", userSecret);
editor.commit();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
} else {
// Do something if the callback comes from elsewhere
}
}
}
and in my manifest file, i have the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Solution
I think that this may be related but I didn't see the Internet Permission in the manifest file
