Android Authentication FAILS in AsyncHttpClient but ok with browser

I am trying to authenticate from Android (Samsung device GT-i9300 Android 4.3 (API18)) to my platform using the loopj library for AsyncHttppClient. Browser authentication is fine, after the user + navigates, I will be redirected to my welcome page.

Here's my kind of logarithm:

15760-15760/Jac.example.com.my_login I/System.out﹕ Entity content encoding:    null
15760-15760/Jac.example.com.my_login I/System.out﹕ Entity content type: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
15760-15760/Jac.example.com.my_login I/System.out﹕ Entity content: java.io.ByteArrayInputStream@427a66b8
15760-15760/Jac.example.com.my_login I/System.out﹕http://mysite.example.net:8145/
15760-16179/Jac.example.com.my_login D/AsyncHttpClient﹕ Headers were overwritten! (Content-Type | application/json) overwrites (Content-Type | text/plain; charset=ISO-  8859-1)

I will try to explain something:

15760-16179 / Jac.example.com.my_login D / AsyncHttpClient: Headers have been rewritten! (Content-Type | application / json) overwrites (Content-Type | text / plain; charset = ISO-8859-1)

I don't understand if this is a good message or a bad one. I get this because if I don't configure the Header manually it gave me: W / AsyncHttpClient: The passed contentType will be ignored as HttpEntity is setting the content type so I decided to set client.setHeader ("Content-Type", "application / json "),

15760-15760 / Jac.example.com.my_login W / JsonHttpResponseHandler: onFailure (int, Header [], String, Throwable) was not overridden, but org.apache.http.client.HttpResponseException: Unauthorized callback was called

I guess there is something wrong in Base64.encode, so I tried with Base64.DEFAULT and NO_WRAP but nothing changed.

if (user != null && password != null)
{
String orig = user + ":" + password;

//byte[] encoded = Base64.encode(orig.getBytes(), Base64.DEFAULT);
byte[] encoded = Base64.encode(orig.getBytes(), Base64.NO_WRAP);
String credentials = new String(encoded);

// set header 
// HEADER_CONTENT_TYPE = "Content-Type";
// HEADER_APPL_JSON = "application/json";
client.setHeader(HEADER_AUTHORIZATION, HEADER_BASIC + " " +credentials);
client.setHeader(HEADER_CONTENT_TYPE, HEADER_APPL_JSON);
}

This is mylogin:

public static void login(Context context, String user, String password) throws JSONException,   UnsupportedEncodingException {

    JSONObject jsonParams = new JSONObject();
    jsonParams.put("username", user);
    jsonParams.put("password", password);
    StringEntity entity = new StringEntity(jsonParams.toString());

    if (user != null && password != null){
        String orig = user + ":" + password;
        //byte[] encoded = Base64.encode(orig.getBytes(), Base64.DEFAULT);
        byte[] encoded = Base64.encode(orig.getBytes(), Base64.NO_WRAP);
        String credentials = new String(encoded);

        // set header
        // HEADER_CONTENT_TYPE = "Content-Type";
        // HEADER_APPL_JSON = "application/json";
        client.setHeader(HEADER_AUTHORIZATION, HEADER_BASIC + " " +credentials);
        client.setHeader(HEADER_CONTENT_TYPE, HEADER_APPL_JSON);
    }

    client.post(context, "oauth2/auth-token", entity, null, new JsonHttpResponseHandler()
    {
        /*
        @Override
        public void onStart(){
            // called before request is started
        }*/

        @Override
        public void onSuccess(int statusCode, Header[] headers, JSONObject response){
            // called when response HTTP status is "200 OK"
            try {
                System.out.println("Status code: "+statusCode);
            } catch (JSONException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        @Override
        public void onFailure(int statusCode, Header[] headers, Throwable throwable, JSONObject errorResponse) {
            // called when response HTTP status is "4XX" (eg. 401, 403, 404)
            System.out.println("Status code: "+statusCode);
            System.out.println("Failure - JSONObj");
        }
        /*
        @Override
        public void onRetry(int retryNo) {
            // called when request is retried
            System.out.println("Retry No: "+retryNo);
        }*/
    });
}
