Android/Java SSL, keystore, certificate reference request

I am running into myriad problems with my attempt to connect to a secure server via https in Android (Eclipse is my ide). My lack of understanding re. Java, Android, ssl and certificates is too much for google searches/stackoverflow to yield useful answers. Can anyone point me to a reference (book or otherwise) that spells out connecting to a secure sever, and all that's involved (keystore, certificate, etc), in detail? An Android reference is preferred, but a Java reference is fine. I need to understand the basics of how Java uses https classes, keystores, certificates, etc.

I would suggest reading through the Java EE SSL guide, found here: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/5/tutorial/doc/bnbxw.html

This should give you about all you can handle for connecting to SSL using Java.
