KSoap and HttpsTransportSE returning URISyntaxException (Malformed IPV6 address)?

Question

I'm trying to use HttpsTransportSE in Ksoap, but I get a URISyntaxException, saying I've got a Malformed IPV6 address- which I guess makes sense as I'm passing a URL... but how do I fix it?

I found a similar query here but this relates to the Http as opposed to Https class and I don't have the overloaded method described.

I'm new to SOAP but my code so far is along the lines of:

    String SOAP_ACTION = "http://url.to.thingy";
String METHOD_NAME = "methodNameFromAsmx";
String NAMESPACE = "http://the.namespace";
String URL = ServerName;
    SoapObject request = new SoapObject(NAMESPACE, METHOD_NAME);
    request.addProperty("Address", UserName);
    SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
    envelope.dotNet=true;
    envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
    HttpsTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpsTransportSE(URL, 443, "/relative/pathToAsmx", 5000);
    androidHttpTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope);

I've replaced the various properties with fudge for now as I'm hoping it's not relevant. My error shows the malformed IPV6 as: https:%2F%2Fmy.url.com

Use this format,

private static final String NAMESPACE = "http://tempuri.org/";
private static final String URL = "192.168.30.8";
private static final String SERVICE = "/Wcf.WCF_.svc?wsdl";
private static String SOAP_ACTION = "http://tempuri.org/iWCF/";
