@ficusk Is there a way to handle gzip responses using volley? If I make a string request, the response appears to be scrambled and it loses its gzip encoding.

Nevermind, I figured it out https://gist.github.com/testtubebaby/8526542

@steindekker i get the same problem with you
this code is fail:
return Response.success(gson.fromJson(json, typeOfT), HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));

@ficusk Hi, We can do like this inside Response?
Type listType = new TypeToken(){}.getType(); // compiler error

@steindekker You can parse Json Array like this:

Type type = new TypeToken<ArrayList<Example>>(){}.getType();
ArrayList<Example> list = gson.fromJson(jsonString, type);

 ListExample listEx = new ListExample ();
 listEx.setList(list);

 // T  t = Primitives.wrap(clazz).cast(listEx);    cast your list into corresponding Class type
                
 return Response.success(Primitives.wrap(clazz).cast(listEx),
                        HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));

Where T relate to 'ListExample.java' class mentioned below :

public class ListExample {

    List<Example> list;

    public List<Example> getList() {
        return list;
    }

    public void setList(List<Example> list) {
        this.list = list;
    }
}

You can send request like this:

GsonRequest<ListExample> jsonObjReq = new GsonRequest<ListExample>("Your Request Url",
                    ListExample.class, null, new Response.Listener<ListExample>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(ListExample response) {	 
		      List<Example> list = response.getList();
                     // Do your stuff here
                }
            },
                    new Response.ErrorListener() {
                        @Override
                        public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                           // Do your stuff here
                        }
                    });

@zicjin try this, it's worked for me
