Try this Code it's easy

public String postAsync(String url, String action, JSONObject jsonObject, String fileUri) throws JSONException {
        String result = "";
        try {
            HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
            HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
            MultipartEntityBuilder entityBuilder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
            entityBuilder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.STRICT);
            File file = new File(fileUri);
            entityBuilder.addPart("file", new FileBody(file));
            entityBuilder.addTextBody(DMConstant.ACTION_JSON, action);
            entityBuilder.addTextBody(DMConstant.DATA_JSON, jsonObject.toString(), ContentType.create("application/json", Consts.UTF_8));
            HttpEntity entity = entityBuilder.build();
            httpPost.setEntity(entity);
            HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
            InputStream inputStream = httpResponse.getEntity().getContent();
            if (inputStream != null) {
                result = dmUtils.convertStreamToString(inputStream);
            } else {
                Log.i("Input Stream is Null", "Input Stream is Null");
            }
        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
            Log.e("Unsupported Encoding", e.getMessage());
        } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
            Log.e("Client Protocol", e.getMessage());
        } catch (IOException e) {
            Log.e("IOException", e.getMessage());
        }
        Log.i("JSON Object as Response", result);
        return result;
    }

........

JSONObject urlObject = new JSONObject();
                        urlObject.put("userName", "user name");
                        urlObject.put("email_id", "äbc@gmail.com");
                        urlObject.put("user_pass", "123456");


postAsync(URL, "php function name", urlObject, imageFile);
