How can i establish a socket connection to an .onion url using SilverTunnel-NG on Android Studio? Is there any alternative?

I am trying to use silvertunnel-ng in order to connect to a hidden service which i created with tor. If i use the code bellow from netbeans i can connect to the socket using the .onion url.

final String HOST = "xw7pdude7qmfqiqim67f.onion";
final TcpipNetAddress proxyTcpipNetAddress = new TcpipNetAddress(HOST, 1444);
System.out.println("Connecting ");
socket = NetFactory.getInstance().getNetLayerById(NetLayerIDs.TOR_OVER_TLS_OVER_TCPIP).createNetSocket(null, null, proxyTcpipNetAddress);
System.out.println("Connected");

the libraries that i use are:

when i transfer the project to android studio it works only if i use

but the connection fails with a timeout error like that

I/ControlNetSocketThread﹕ send timeout to ControlNetSocket(LoggingNetSocket(Socket2NetSocket(Socket[address=/82.94.251.203,port=80,localPort=43309]))): overall timeout reached

Has anyone managed to connect to an .onion url using silvertunnel-ng on android studio? Which libraries should i use? Is there an alternative to silvertunnel-ng?

Well, a new snapshot of silvertunnel-ng released a few days ago and the problem is solved. i confirm that connecting to tor from android using silvertunnel-ng is possible.
