Can you give more information like the HTTP response? And what your version of OData? Is that V3 or V4? If it's V3, the request should look like

    POST serviceRoot/entityset HTTP/1.1

    DataServiceVersion: 3.0;
    MaxDataServiceVersion: 3.0;
    Content-Type: application/json;odata=minimalmetadata
    Accept: application/json;odata=minimalmetadata
    Accept-Charset: UTF-8

    {
      content of the entity
    }

If it's V4, the request should look like

    POST serviceRoot/EntitySet
    OData-Version: 4.0
    Content-Type: application/json;odata=minimalmetadata
    Accept: application/json
    {
       "@odata.type" : "namespace.type",
       content of the entity
    }

Seems that your code miss the odata version header.
