title: Android CookieManager setCookie doesn't set anything
body: <p>in my application, I'm getting two cookies from an HttpGet request and store them in the CookieManager like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>//Clear old cookies
  CookieManager.getInstance().removeAllCookie();
  CookieSyncManager.getInstance().sync();
  
  //Save the two cookies: auth token and session info
  List&lt;Cookie&gt; cookies = httpclient.getCookieStore().getCookies();
  if (cookies != null) {
      for (Cookie cookie : cookies) {
          String cookieString = cookie.getName() + "=" + cookie.getValue() + "; Domain=" + cookie.getDomain();
          CookieManager.getInstance().setCookie("http://alpha.mydomainname.com", cookieString);
      }
  
      System.out.println(CookieManager.getInstance().hasCookies()); //Prints false in 2.3,  true in 4.0.3
  
      CookieSyncManager.getInstance().sync();
  
      System.out.println(CookieManager.getInstance().hasCookies()); //Also prints false in 2.3 and true in 4.0.3
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm testing the same code in two different devices and the funny thing is, the cookies are set (and also transferred between launches of the application) correctly in 4.0.3 but not in 2.3.3. When I say they are not set, I mean that hasCookies() returns false and also getCookie() returns null when I provide the URL.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried every possible combination for the Cookie URL when calling setCookie: "http://alpha.mydomainname.com", "http://www.mydomainname.com", "http://mydomainname.com", "mydomainname.com", "alpha.mydomainname.com", ".mydomainname.com", "www.mydomainname.com", none of them works. Please help. </p>
