Answer 1

You can not access any UI elements in th DoInBackground() method, as it runs on its own thread, not on the UI thread. You should use

txtFar.setText(result.getProperty(0).toString());

and

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "No Response",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

call in the onPostExecute, or in onProgressChanged() methods.
