Socket Problem

I'm trying to get my android client to connect to my server.

The connection seems to be okay, but the client doesn't seem to be reading anything correctly.

Once connected, the server sends a HELLO message. The client doesn't seem to acknowledge it until the server disconnects the client (or server is closed). After which it seems to arrive immediately, followed by disconnection.

I don't think its a problem with the server (which isn't android) because I have made a VB program that connects and works with it fine.

As far as I know, the code should work fine (I've done it before in desktop Java) and it's the same as any examples I can find on the internet...

If anyone could shed some light, I'd very much appreciate it

Seem to have solved this, it's a bit dirty and I don't think it's the right way but, changing to this seemed to work.
