I ported to Volley and I realized that it doesn't manage cookies. I then looked for an answer on how to do so, and the best so far is it of setting the default CookieHandler in the static method setDefault() of the class CookieHandler.
I created then a new CookieManager as suggested in many questions with my custom CookieStore, but when I tried queuing a request I get this stacktrace:

I'm using a Moto G with Android 4.4.2 to debug, and I set the CookieManager in the Application object (in the onCreate()).
I guess I'm not missing anything. I'd really appreciate some ideas to solve this problem, or some workaround.
It may be related to that bug of Android Kitkat not working correctly when the default CookieManager is changed (Android 4.4 KitKat not receiving cookies)
