Load image into android listview from url

Question

Hey guys i am building an app and i would like some images from url's into android imageview inside of a listview. I used the aquery library and i get this error

04-09 17:56:43.864: I/System.out(1580): resolveUri failed on bad bitmap uri: 
04-09 17:56:43.894: E/BitmapFactory(1580): Unable to decode stream: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /: open failed: EISDIR (Is a directory)

I dont know actually how else this could have been easier.

My code is:

public class JsonReadTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
        public JsonReadTask(){
            super();
        }
        @SuppressLint("InlinedApi")
        @Override
        protected void onPreExecute() {
            super.onPreExecute();
            pDialog = new ProgressDialog(MainActivity.this, ProgressDialog.THEME_DEVICE_DEFAULT_DARK);
            pDialog.setTitle(R.string.waiting);
            pDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_SPINNER);
            pDialog.setMessage(getString(R.string.get_stocks));
            pDialog.setIndeterminate(true);
            pDialog.setCancelable(false);
            pDialog.setInverseBackgroundForced(true);
            pDialog.show();
        }
        @Override
        protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
            HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(params[0]);
            try {
                HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
                jsonResult = inputStreamToString(
                        response.getEntity().getContent()).toString();
            }

            catch (Exception e) {
                Intent intent1 = new Intent(MainActivity.this, RefreshActivity.class);
                startActivityForResult(intent1, 0);
            } 
            return null;
        }
        private StringBuilder inputStreamToString(InputStream is) {
            String rLine = "";
            StringBuilder answer = new StringBuilder();
            BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
            try {
                while ((rLine = rd.readLine()) != null) {
                    answer.append(rLine);
                }
            }
            catch (Exception e) {
                Intent intent1 = new Intent(MainActivity.this, RefreshActivity.class);
                startActivity(intent1);
                startActivityForResult(intent1, 0);
            }
            return answer;
        }
        @Override
        protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
            ListDrawer();
            pDialog.dismiss();

        }
    }// end async task

        //stockNameNo.put("image", image);
        return stockNameNo;
    }
}

Could someone point me the way to load images properly??

Thanks in advance!!
