How to enable TLS 1.2 support in an Android application (running on Android 4.1 JB)

As per the docs in Android for SSLSocket and SSLContext, TLS v1.1 and v1.2 protocols are supported in API level 16+, but are not enabled by default.http://developer.android.com/reference/javax/net/ssl/SSLSocket.htmlhttp://developer.android.com/reference/javax/net/ssl/SSLContext.html

How do I enable it on a device running Android 4.1 or later (but below 5.0)?

I have tried creating a custom SSLSocketFactory which enables all the supported protocols when Socket's are created and later use my custom implementation as:

HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(new MySSLSocketFactory());

public class MySSLSocketFactory extends SSLSocketFactory {        private SSLContext sc;        private SSLSocketFactory ssf;          public MySSLSocketFactory() {            try {                sc = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");                sc.init(null, null, null);                ssf = sc.getSocketFactory();            } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {                e.printStackTrace();            } catch (KeyManagementException e) {                e.printStackTrace();            }          }        @Override        public Socket createSocket(Socket s, String host, int port, boolean autoClose)                throws IOException {            SSLSocket ss = (SSLSocket) ssf.createSocket(s, host, port, autoClose);            ss.setEnabledProtocols(ss.getSupportedProtocols());            ss.setEnabledCipherSuites(ss.getSupportedCipherSuites());            return ss;        }        @Override        public String[] getDefaultCipherSuites() {            return ssf.getDefaultCipherSuites();        }        @Override        public String[] getSupportedCipherSuites() {            return ssf.getSupportedCipherSuites();        }        @Override        public Socket createSocket(String host, int port) throws IOException, UnknownHostException {            SSLSocket ss = (SSLSocket) ssf.createSocket(host, port);            ss.setEnabledProtocols(ss.getSupportedProtocols());            ss.setEnabledCipherSuites(ss.getSupportedCipherSuites());            return ss;        }        @Override        public Socket createSocket(InetAddress host, int port) throws IOException {            SSLSocket ss = (SSLSocket) ssf.createSocket(host, port);            ss.setEnabledProtocols(ss.getSupportedProtocols());            ss.setEnabledCipherSuites(ss.getSupportedCipherSuites());            return ss;        }        @Override        public Socket createSocket(String host, int port, InetAddress localHost, int localPort)                throws IOException, UnknownHostException {            SSLSocket ss = (SSLSocket) ssf.createSocket(host, port, localHost, localPort);            ss.setEnabledProtocols(ss.getSupportedProtocols());            ss.setEnabledCipherSuites(ss.getSupportedCipherSuites());            return ss;        }        @Override        public Socket createSocket(InetAddress address, int port, InetAddress localAddress,                int localPort) throws IOException {            SSLSocket ss = (SSLSocket) ssf.createSocket(address, port, localAddress, localPort);            ss.setEnabledProtocols(ss.getSupportedProtocols());            ss.setEnabledCipherSuites(ss.getSupportedCipherSuites());            return ss;        }    }

But it still gives an exception while trying to establish a connection with a server on which Only TLS 1.2 is enabled.

Here is the exception I get:
