            String xml="<yourxml></yourxml>"

            DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
            httpPost.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/xml");

            StringEntity entity = new StringEntity(xml);
            httpPost.setEntity(entity);

            HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
            HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
            xml = EntityUtils.toString(httpEntity);
