Android Question Network Socket and IPv6?

I use the Network library and Socket1 as Socket to make connections across the internet to my Verizon M2M devices from my apps.

Everything works perfectly fine, HOWEVER we got notification from Verizon that after June they will be switching to IPv6 only for static IPs, and IPv4 will only be available for private/NAT which of course wont work at at all if a server sits behind an M2M module (which all my devices are servers).

So, I cant find any information how to handle IPv6 with Socket? Any thoughts?

Is there a tutorial or how-to to connect to an IPv6 server socket?

I know IPv6 is in hexadecimal and I am unsure of the formatting for Socket1.connect(IP) for IPv6
