Answer 1

Way 1:

You need to use in build.gradle

android{
   useLibrary  'org.apache.http.legacy'
}

If you use latest version of android SDK.

Way 2:

Use HttpURLConnection class instead of HTTPClient. HttpURLConnection is more efficient than HTTPClient.

Answer 2

If you are using target sdk as 23

then inside the build.gradle add:

    android
    {
         useLibrary  'org.apache.http.legacy'
    }

as Apache Http is deprecated with the arrival of Marshmallow.

And according to this question, do not use any of these gradle files as it seems broken,

compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpcore:4.4.1'
compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient:4.5'
compile 'org.apache.httpcomponents:httpclient-android:4.3.5.1'

Hope it helps!
