I upload photo to the server via the default HttpClient in Android SDK. I want to show progress in the user interface, is there a way to find out how much has been uploaded? Is it possible with HttpUrlConnection?

I am developing an Android app which enables the user to upload a file to services like Twitpic and others.
The POST upload is done without any external libraries and works just fine. My only problem is, that I can't grab any progress because all the uploading is done when I receive the response, not while writing the bytes into the outputstream.
As described in this answer you cannot grab a progress of a multipart/form POST upload in Android using only the Android SDK, because there is an issue with the stream buffering when using HttpURLConnection which will be fixed post Froyo (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3164#c6).
Since the Apache HttpClient 3.1 was removed from the SDK quite early and the new HttpClient, which is now part of the SDK, wasn't adopted completely (it misses multipart capabilities) you can add the missing parts (specifically apache-mime4j-0.6.jar and httpmime-4.0.1.jar) to perform a multipart/form-data upload AND grab the progress of the upload (also described in the answer mentioned above).
Now, the reason why I open a new question is, that doing as described leads to an enormous growth of the installed app size (in my case from 170kb to 732kb).
So, the question is: Is there any other way to perform a multipart/form-data upload and grab the upload progress without increasing the app size that much? Are there any other libraries one can use or is there any other alternative way, not mentioned here?

-->First i want to show when my image is load from internet, when this process is done i have set A button on that Remote image.
-->When i click that button i want Dialog for second time..(on clicking button i have set video streaming code.. before video is start i want to close that Dialog..)
I have a service that downloads something from the Internet, it shows progress in notifications and in MyActivity (only when MyActivity is on foreground of course). How should the service post the progress to MyActivity? I know this could be done somehow with IBind but can I just simply do this in MyActivity:
MySevice.myActivity = this; startService(new Intent(....));
From MyService I can now call MyActivity's methods because I have a static reference to it in MySevice.myActivity, so I can call e.g. myActivity.sendProgress(63).
how to show dialog with only the progress image without the rectangle, background color and text. I want only the spinning image in the dialog.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am creating an app that show a Progress dialog in AsyncTask to inform the user while web information is being fetched. I've read there are two ways of doing this: Using handlers or creating and executing an inner class that overrides the AsyncTask class. I am trying to create and executing inner class that overrides the AsyncTask class, which runs a resource-intensive thread in the background, to provide progress updates, and reports back when finished.
On the OnCreate, I have: protected Dialog onCreateDialog(int id) { return ProgressDialog.show(ListSituation.this, "", "Loading. Please wait...", true); }
I often run over poor connections. Attachment upload takes time. (I use Hotmail) I am often not sure if the upload is continuing ok and if it is worth waiting for.
In Chrome Webmail (Hotmail) I can see attachment upload progress. But using the web demands more bandwidth.
Is there a mail app for Hotmail that monitors this progress. How is "sending in the outbox" coming along?
In the android market app, the ListView shows a 'ProgressView' during the loading of the content of the ListView, and then when the loading is done, it shows the content of the ListView.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a tabhost that contains three tabs showing three separate activities. One of those activities needs to show the indeterminate progress bar on the title bar. If I set that activity as the MAIN, everything works fine. As soon as I use a tabhost to show the activity, I cannot show an indeterminate progress on the title bar for the tabhost activity. One way could be to have methods on the tabhost class that show the progress on it's title bar, but I do not know how to access those methods from outside the tabhost (for example, from another activity).

I have an async task that downloads the database needed for my app, while this is downloading my app cant do anything as all the data it references is in this file, i have the app waiting for the file to be downloaded but i am attempting to show a progress dialog so the user knows something is happening while they wait for this to happen.however nothing shows up i have also tried directly calling ProgressDialog.show in the pre execute and moving this to the calling activity with no luck.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been searching for days trying to find solution to my problem. I would like to show a progress bar while downloading a file in Android. I found enough to download the file but have struggled to figure out how to display a progress bar.
Here is my download code:...............
I am doing something similar to the below:
private void onCreate() {
final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "Please wait..", "Doing stuff..", true);
Thread t = new Thread() {
public void run() {
//do some serious stuff...
dialog.dismiss();
}
};
t.start();
t.join();
stepTwo();
}
However, what I am finding is that my progress dialog never even shows up. My App stalls for a moment so I know it is chugging along inside of thread t, but why doesnt my dialog appear? IF I remove the line: t.join(); Then what I find happens is that the progress dialog does show up, but my app starts stepTwo(); before what happens in the thread is complete..
I have some data I load into the database the first time a user enters my Activity, and want to show a ProgressDialog while this data is loaded for the first time. My Activity is an ExpandableListActivity and I don't create the SimpleExpandableListAdapter or call setListAdapter passing my adapter until I'm sure the data is actually there. My onCreate looks like this:
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mCategoryDbHelper = new CategoryDBHelper(this);
// Build default categories... if not there yet
CategoryDbBuilder builder = new CategoryDbBuilder(this);................
I am trying to upload a video to an api and I was wondering how you show a progress bar show and also dismiss it when an upload has finished? Also, while were at it, do you see anything wrong with my pattern.compile for my edit boxes?

public class Loadvid extends AsyncTask <Object,Integer,String>{
EditText etxt_user = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.user_email);
EditText etxt_pass = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.friend_email);
[code]...
But it doesn't work. When i click on the button to send, it shows the handler for 2 seconds then brings up an error close.Error log.
In this example [URL]...I want add a activity that user can enter a URL of downloads(a add last url downloading) and show in this activity download information & progress bar & cancel button & resume.how to do it? Please show with example.

I'm writing an app that uploads files to a web service. My question is how to write a Service to handle this: I want to upload in a background thread (or process not sure of the precise wording), so that the user can go to other applications without interrupting the upload, and show a notification / kill the thread when the upload is complete.I'm guessing it should be a Service, with a Notification to show the user what's going on: but should it be a LocalService or a RemoteService, as per the API examples? And do I need to call a new thread once I start the service, or do all services by definition run in a different thread?
