The error says that the dns server the device is talking to can't resolve the name. It may also mean we can't talk to the dns server. Can you resolve other names (google.com, cnn.com, etc)? Are you on wifi or mobile data? Are you talking to a public dns server? Is your server world accessible and has its dns record been published?
If this is on a private network you should probably use wifi to give access to your private dns server and the server itself.

I tried it with emulator again and emulator still is able to connect
to host, but the device keeps producing the above error.
What changed an hour ago?You don't give a lot of information here. I'm guessing that the device is not connected to the private LAN that hasthe DNS server that resolves the hostname. The emulator shares the network connectivity of its host; not so thereal device.You might have to (reverse) tether the device to get it to access the LAN.--Lew--
