Disable SSL certificate check in retrofit library

Use this class to get unsafe Retrofit instance. I have included imports to avoid confusion.

import java.security.cert.CertificateException;

import javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLContext;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLSession;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory;
import javax.net.ssl.TrustManager;
import javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager;

import okhttp3.OkHttpClient;
import retrofit2.Retrofit;
import retrofit2.converter.gson.GsonConverterFactory;
import view.utils.AppConstants;

public class NetworkHandler {

    public static Retrofit getRetrofit() {

        return new Retrofit.Builder()
                .baseUrl(AppConstants.BASE_URL)
                .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
                .client(getUnsafeOkHttpClient())
                .build();
    }


    private static OkHttpClient getUnsafeOkHttpClient() {
        try {
            // Create a trust manager that does not validate certificate chains
            final TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[] {
                    new X509TrustManager() {
                        @Override
                        public void checkClientTrusted(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] chain, String authType) throws CertificateException {
                        }

                        @Override
                        public void checkServerTrusted(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] chain, String authType) throws CertificateException {
                        }

                        @Override
                        public java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {
                            return new java.security.cert.X509Certificate[]{};
                        }
                    }
            };

            // Install the all-trusting trust manager
            final SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
            sslContext.init(null, trustAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom());
            // Create an ssl socket factory with our all-trusting manager
            final SSLSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = sslContext.getSocketFactory();

            OkHttpClient.Builder builder = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
            builder.sslSocketFactory(sslSocketFactory);
            builder.hostnameVerifier(new HostnameVerifier() {
                @Override
                public boolean verify(String hostname, SSLSession session) {
                    return true;
                }
            });

            OkHttpClient okHttpClient = builder.build();
            return okHttpClient;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }
}

And then simply use retrofit without ssl check like this

    private void postFeedbackOnServer() {

        MyApiEndpointInterface apiService =
                NetworkHandler.getRetrofit().create(MyApiEndpointInterface.class);

        Call<ResponseBE> call = apiService.submitFeedbackToServer(requestObject);

        Log.e(TAG ,  "Request is" + new Gson().toJson(requestObject).toString() );

        call.enqueue(new Callback<ResponseBE>() {
            @Override
            public void onResponse(Call<ResponseBE> call, Response<ResponseBE> response) {
                int statusCode = response.code();

                if (statusCode == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {

              ......

                } else {
                    Toast.makeText(FeedbackActivity.this, "Failed to submit Data" + statusCode, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                }
            }

            @Override
            public void onFailure(Call<ResponseBE> call, Throwable t) {

                // Log error here since request failed
                Toast.makeText(FeedbackActivity.this, "Failure" + t.getLocalizedMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            }
        });
    }
