N nicolas irigoyen Member Licensed User Mar 26, 2020 #1 Hi this is a technical cuestion more than a specific cuestion of the language.. Í need to implement an application for android with connection to a server made in visual basic that it will also be implemented by me. The interechange of data between andoid app and server will be in xml format. I would like to know if it would be better to do it using http protocol or just tcp/ip connection, and what would be the adventages or disadventages of each other. Anything you could say would be usefull! Thanks in advance..

The various options are listed here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-the-networkers-guide-to-the-galaxy.68974/#content Using raw sockets is usually a mistake as there are simpler and more robust options such as: http server, WebSocket server and MQTT.
