        SoapSerializationEnvelope env = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);

        env.dotNet = true;
        env.xsd = SoapSerializationEnvelope.XSD;
        env.enc = SoapSerializationEnvelope.ENC;

        env.setOutputSoapObject(request);

        androidHttpTransport.debug=true;
        androidHttpTransport.call("", env);

        Object res = env.getResponse();

Don't use AndroidHttpTransport its deprecated. instead of this use

HttpTransportSE httpTransportSE=new HttpTransportSE(URL)
