Hi Guys,

I trust you are well.

how to sort out the following error in xamarin android( Time out break mode).

When calling HttpClient

It works fine on emulator but on real device it goes on Break mode (Unhandled Exception: System.FormatException:

My C# code:

//Calling Web API

var HttpClient = new HttpClient();

var response = await HttpClient.GetStringAsync("https://...MyUrl");

var hourlyList = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject>(response);

Know the answer? Post it — somebody with the same question will find it here.

It is the same account you read, post and publish with — and you will come straight back to this page.

Accepted answer
hi
Your code is currect .But I think the response data is not a json string format or it is mismatch with the properties of the class Forecast

I tried it but still getting the error.

var HttpClient = new HttpClient();
HttpClient.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(200);
var response = await HttpClient.GetStringAsync("myURL");

Try to provide the timeout mannually in a variable and pass it to the httpclient "Timeout" property.

HttpClient.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(_timeoutSeconds);
Mark as answer, If it helps. Else come up with your quesry.
Thank you.
