I am trying to send a multipart SMS using the following code. While the SMS is being split into multiple parts and sent across, in the receiver, I am seeing some junk characters (as if i am reading a binary file). Obviously, I am not doing something correct.

I'm trying to do something I thought would be relatively simple: Upload an image to a server with the Android SDK. I'm found a lot of example code:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/f9e17bbaf50c5fc/46145fcacd450e48
[url]
But neither work for me. The confusion I keep running into is what is really needed to make a multipart request. What is the simplest way to have a multipart upload (with an image) for Android?
HttpClient 4 doesn't have that included anymore. The upstream project didn't integrate it from the 3.x client. I had to do exactly the same today. Basically I solved it by including some additional jars: mime4j httpmime This question was already on the list and there's some better explanation: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/1ea124b384da9dc2 -- Urs My problem is that while i know what i have to include, i can't find a sensible download link for httpmime. the page points back to httpcore for downloads, but of course it's not in there any more (i checked). i was up for compiling it, but the source link takes me to the javadoc! something is definitely screwed up.

It's supposed to be in the httpmime project, but the download link for that project leads me back to httpcore, and the httpcore download doesn't contain that class. anyone else get multi part form upload to work?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a class that implements a multipart file upload. The code works on every java client I've tried it on but does not work on Android, *and* it's the only HTTP request code in my Android app that doesn't play nice with my back end service. I've looked through the posts to see if other are having similar issues but so far have only found posts like this http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/msg/c4b0270153d194d9 , which are nearly the same as mine. T The symtoms I'm seeing are that the connection responseCode is "-1" & no entries show up in the Apache access or error logs. It seems as if the request is never making it off of the android platform. The code gets right through the connection writes in the debugger with no errors, but hangs on the connection read, times out and then returns with -1. Behavior is same for real phone and emulator. As I mentioned, this code is in use elsewhere and works fine.
Does anyone know of any gotchas one needs to look out for when posting a multipart file in Android? Anything about doing a POST or a POST w/ data on Android?
I'm including the code/class below so you can see what I'm up to.

I'm working on a sample application that does FileUpload using Multipart post, with Andorid 1.6 SDK the application works as expected but with 2.1 there is an issue basically the application does not execute and stays stale as soon as the upload process has started.
Basically, i use "java.net.URLConnection" for establishing connectivity with the server. Is there any changes made with the core Java API's in Android SDK 2.1 that causes this issue.
I would like to develop an application that uploads an image and some text data about that image.
To do that, I am trying to create a HTTP Multipart Post, as follows:
code:..........
My doubt is: how can I extract those values in the server? I would like to develop a Servlet to receive and process the post requests. In this Servlet I would need to extract these values in th request. Can you help me? Do you have any sample of server to answer the android multipart requests?
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?
This is my code.
I got Http 400 error.

As part of my Android app, I'd like to upload bitmaps to be remotely stored. I have simple HTTP GET and POST communication working perfectly, but documentation on how to do a multipart POST seems to be as rare as unicorns.
Furthermore, I'd like to transmit the image directly from memory, instead of working with a file. In the example code below, I'm getting a byte array from a file to be used later on with HttpClient and MultipartEntity.
CODE:..............
This all seems fairly clear to me, except that I can't for the life of me find out where to get this ByteArrayPartSource. I have linked to the httpclient and httpmime JAR files, but no dice. I hear that the package structure changed drastically between HttpClient 3.x and 4.x.
Is anyone using this ByteArrayPartSource in Android, and how did they import it?
After digging around in the documentation and scouring the Internet, I came up with something that fit my needs. To make a multipart request such as a form POST, the following code did the trick for me:
CODE:.....
The HTTPMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE bit is very important.

This is some sample code for uploading an image to the web, as part of a multipart message. It assumes that the photo is stored on the SD card as "photo.jpg". You'll need to download and add a couple of jar files to the project's built path - commons-httpclient.jar and httpcomponents-client-4.0-alpha4.
It is working on my device. However (big caveats here) - it's much slower than I would like, and much slower than other applications I've installed that upload photos. It also feels hacky - e.g. the way the background thread communicates problems with the upload to the main thread using variables. I'm sure there must be a neater way to do it.
If you figure out a way to improve the code,

I have a friend who is added to my Desire's contact list.
1. He is on my Facebook contact. (His facebook pic appears in my Desire contact list)
2. He is my Gmail contact as well.
3. He is added as a 'Phone Contact' as well.
I sent him a text few days ago but don't remember if it was using facebook or my phone (network provider sms) but now when I go in to 'Messages' and send him a message, I just can't figure out if I am sending him a message via Facebook or to his mobile number.
I am constantly sending pics on my phone to my friends' email accounts through gmail.Is there an APP that can simplify this process for me?for example, is there an app that would let me choose a specific friend, take the picture, and then have it open up to a gmail message with the friends e-mail inputted and the pic attached, ready to hit send?i have the mytouch slide, and they tried to implement a function like this into their faves application, but it doesnt work. it does everything that I said above but it fails to attach the image correctly.. it just says picture.jpg is attached and it sends a blank e-mail to the friend.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on an app that allows sending lots of text messages. I have two questions:-
1) If I send too many messages together (around 80), only about 10 actually go and the rest fail in the first try. Do networks limit how many sms can we send per second or something? Will pausing after every sms help in this case?
2) I believe Android shows a dialog box if we send more than 100 sms in an hour. I am sending SMS from a separate thread. Can Android block that thread if there are too many SMS being sent?
I have an HTC Magic running the stock Roger's 2.1 rom, using K9 mail with MobileMe. I find if I compose an email from scratch, no problems. But if I reply to a message it won't send... it just sits in the Outbox. If I manually force it to send from the Outbox it will usually go... but not always. Has anyone come across anything like this before? Seems pretty weird that a 'fresh' email will send, but not a reply (the only different seemingly being that K9 is filling in the To field itself). I guess in the meantime I could give another email app such as MailDroid a spin, but I'm rather fond of K9.

So I use Handcent, and it's awesome, but when it comes to taking a photo and then sending it via text, it won't send. It'll say the file size is too big and then I get the little red x to resend, but the same thing happens. When I open the stock text message app, take a photo, and send it the app resizes it automatically. What's the issue? How do I get Handcent to resize the photo automatically? I'm on a Droid2 if that makes a difference.

View 37 Replies View RelatedSoftbank Japan has just released an sms/mms app that allows sending and receiving emoji! I just tested with my wife's iphone, and I could send emoji fine with my HTC Desire (Softbank x06HT), and I could receive it fine! A big selection of emoji too, maybe the complete set that Softbank usually includes on their other phones. It is buggy and a bit clunky, but it's a *lot* better than nothing! Lots of complaining in the comments section, but I don't think it's that bad. Now, the big question: Is it available in other markets? I'm in Japan right now, and I searched for "Softbank" in the market and I found it... It's called "Softbank メール". The link that they sent me in a news SMS is: "http://market.android.com/search?q=jp.softbank.mb.mail". They also say it is Froyo only...
Lastly, for those who have been in Japan a while and have an @softbank.ne.jp or @x.vodafone.ne.jp (like me) can now use those mails on their phones as well, inside the app. I sent myself a message and received it fine, and when I replied it sent from my old vodafone mail address (although I haven't figured out how to choose between SMS and e-mail for sending yet). EDIT: Figured it out, just type in a phone number (or choose from contacts) to send an SMS, type in an e-mail address to send from your @softbank or @vodafone address. Swet. I'll see if I can post the full message, for those who can read Japanese (I can't read very much of it, only hiragana/katakana).
