IN Emulator go to setting->click on Network and Internet ->then select Internet->select available network and then re-run your project and check it will work
Please try http://10.0.2.2:8080 instead of localhost:8080.
If you are referring your localhost on your system from the Android emulator then you have to use http://10.0.2.2:8080/ Because Android emulator runs in a Virtual Machine therefore here 127.0.0.1 or localhost will be emulator’s own loopback address.
