A anantshri New Member Licensed User Longtime User May 17, 2013 #1 Hi, I am very new to Basic4Android. can anyone suggest a simpler way in which i can connect to SSL using my chosen cipher suite. also would love if someone can suggest a way by which i can access the SSL handshake messages. Need it to validate if i can communicate with server using a specific cipher and also what are the cipher suites supported by server.

I am trying to see what ciphers are supported at Server. consider it simmilar to finding all possible cipher suites supported by ciphers. I know in case of SSL connection it will be handled with maximum possible on both side. that's why i thought if i can initiate a connection using my chosen cipher i can see if that is supported (i.e. i get connection) or not.
