In case someone need the answer, I finally found the answer after 2 days of google. Basically we need to use custom TrustManager to trusts the CAs in our KeyStore, this is because in Android 2.3.x, the keystore is not being properly used. Credit to https://github.com/delgurth for the CustomTrustManager.

To use it, just get the SSLSocketFactory and apply it, eg:
with HttpsURLConnection
KeyPinStore keystore = KeyPinStore.getInstance();
SSLSocketFactory sslSF = keystore.getContext().getSocketFactory();
URL url = new URL("https://certs.cac.washington.edu/CAtest/");
HttpsURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setSSLSocketFactory(sslSF);
InputStream in = urlConnection.getInputStream();
copyInputStreamToOutputStream(in, System.out);
with Volley
KeyPinStore keystore = KeyPinStore.getInstance();
SSLSocketFactory sslSF = keystore.getContext().getSocketFactory();
RequestQueue mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(context, new HurlStack(null, sslSF));
openssl s_client -connect <server>:<port>to ensure you are sending a valid chain. – jww
