String.equals() won't work

My problem is that this won't work:

if (result.equals("success")) {
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.myContext, "Hausaufgabe eingetragen!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    startSync(lv);
}
else if (result.equals("already exists")) {
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.myContext, "Hausaufgabe wurde bereits eingetragen!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
else if (result.equals("user not exists")){
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.myContext, "Das eingespeicherte Benutzerkonto ist ungültig oder gelöscht worden!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
else if (result.equals("server problem")){
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.myContext, "Ein Server Problem ist aufgetreten!\n" + "Bitte melden!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
else {
    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.myContext, "Unbekannte Rückmeldung des Servers:\n" + result, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}

Log.d("API",result);

LogCat says API:success, but feedback in the app is "Unbekannte Rückmeldung des Servers: success"

Use the trim() method, because your variable result probably contains an space, like " success":

if (result.trim().equals("success")) {
...
...

you could complement with toLowerCase() method, to prevent the handle of capitalized letters like " Success":

 if (result.trim().toLowerCase().equals("success")) {
    ...
    ...

or try using indexOf() method

for example:

if (result.indexOf("success") > 0) {
...
...
