Answer 1

You need to convert your post data into Json format (you can use google library gson or by using org.json).

And then add your json string to the post data nameValuePair.add(new BasicNameValuePair("login", "A@asd.ru"))

Answer 2

I think you are missunderstanding the piece of code you've posted. This just sends a POST request to the server, but currently doesn't process the response from it. To do so, you might use a piece of code like this:

InputStream ips;
ips = response.getEntity().getContent();
final BufferedReader buf = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(ips, "UTF-8"));

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String s;
while (true) {
  s = buf.readLine();
  if ((s == null) || (s.length() == 0))
    break;
  sb.append(s);
}

buf.close();
ips.close();
Log.i("Response", "My response is: " + sb.toString());
