This question already has an answer here:
org.json.JSONException: Value <br of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject
From what I can gather.. I am receiving a string that is contaminated with HTML and I have no idea why!
I've spent a few hours researching this issue on the internet but have not found any responses that match.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

This is an error response, probably paired with a non 200 status code.
You require the email parameter on your server, but you send username. email is not found and the php produces an error.
You should add error handling to your server. To fix your issue either change to username on your server or email in java.
