This is a tutorial I made to make communicate your Android with a Node.js server:

(without any additional library)

https://causeyourestuck.io/2016/04/27/node-js-android-tcpip/

This is a foretaste of how it looks like at the end:

Client socket = new Client("192.168.0.8", 1234);
socket.setOnEventOccurred(new Client.OnEventOccurred() {
    @Override
    public void onMessage(String message) {
    }

    @Override
    public void onConnected(Socket socket) {
        socket.send("Hello World!");
        socket.disconnect();
    }

    @Override
    public void onDisconnected(Socket socket, String message) {
    }
});

socket.connect();

One of the best solutions is to use socket.io-java-client which is fully android supported.

EDIT: If you're using socket.io 1 or later then use nkzawa socket.io-client.java
