I'm trying to do multipart form upload using the 4.x httpclient on android. all the 4.x code samples I'm seeing use org.apache.http.entity.mime.MultipartEntity, but I'm running into a roadblock trying to find it. 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?

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?

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.

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.

I 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?

In response to a request over here: http://bit.ly/E1Qqm
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'm having trouble uploading pictures I've taken on my DX to facebook through the "Quick Upload" option.I got a few uploaded, so I know it works, but now everytime I try, the status bad fills up all the way to "Uploading 100%" then it stalls before giving me the error "Can't send response now.Try again later."I've tried turning Wi-Fi on or off, but on both Wi-Fi and 3G it's not working.Thoughts?

I'm sure it's easy, but I'm not seeing it.I have an HTC Incredible.How do I upload files (mainly pictures and videos taken with the camera) to my dropbox folder?I thought there might be a way to go into the dropbox app and upload, but that doesn't seem to just let me upload any file.I also tried copying the files into sdcard/dropbox, but they don't show up in my dropbox account that way either.

well this is just an observation I've come up with but if i am wrong anybody feel free to correct me. Its about buying apps because I never have but with free apps u would only have to download it and simply back it up using Astro File Manager so my question is after buying an application couldn't anyone just simply back it up using Astro, connect your phone to the PC, C&P the file and upload that file for all to download?

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?

Droid can only upload vids to YouTube by wifi... is that an Android thing or a limitation caused by Verizon's abilities (inabitlies?).
Not a severe problem, but I was so used to posting vids for work as the fastest way to get a QC problem resolved for co-workers across the state. I'd post a vid, they see it within minutes, and come up with a solution.
Can't do that with Droid.
Can't email them as the files are too large. Still have to use my little Nokia on ATT to do that.

Is there an app that will allow me to attach files and upload, for example on this site in a post so I could attach a picture or zip file straight from my phone. Or something I could use on a file hosting site, etc. If I could do this I will have no need for a computer at all once I get flash. I have a rooted Droid X.

I'm writing an Android app where users can upload video to Youtube. I'd like the Youtube tag field to be pre-filled with a tag that I set. I'd also like the UI to work like this: user clicks on an Upload button, user goes straight to Youtube upload intent (rather than picking from a Chooser), tag field is pre-filled for them.
Is this possible using ACTION_SENDTO?
Currently I have this code, which just launches a Chooser, which really isn't what I want:
btnUpload.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
//uploadToYouTube();
//videoUpload();
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("video/3gpp");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, videoURI);
try {
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent,
"Upload video via:"));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
Toast.makeText(Recorder.this, "No way to share!",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});

Anyone know how to unclog stalled uploads to Facebook? I've tried to upload vacation photos but they don't get through + remain somewhere between the cloud + my T-Mobile MyTouch phone. I've tried clearing the cache as well as logging off + relogging. Nothing seems to work. Any advice?

I've written an app that syncs social network photos with your phone's contact photos. It works great. However, I have an option that lets the user skip any contacts that already have a photo added. This works great until the phone (I assume) syncs up the photo from the social network with Google Contacts.
I use a hash of the pic to track if the picture is one from my sync app or one that the user has added themselves. So, if Google Contacts changes the format of the pic, then the hash will change and my method is no good!
