Do you know if </soap:Envelope> is ever emitted on the client?

For debugging purposes, read the stream entirely into a byte array and 
then print the contents out as a string.  The parser may either not be 
getting the final tag (I doubt this, the flush() on client side should 
send it), OR it may be default have validation turned on, and is 
waiting for the real "end" of the document so that it can do some sort 
of validation or display errors.  Maybe there is a way to turn this off.

Otherwise your only solution will be to consume the message yourself 
somehow (maybe by sending a leading number of bytes written to stream, 
or just by checking until end tag is reached) then just provide a 
streamsource from bytearrayinputstream.

Using BufferedReader.readLine will almost never work and is a frequent 
error in network programming as the readLine method will block until 
an EOL series is reached, which may well never come.
