Answer 1

My java is a bit ropey but....

It looks like connection.getResponseCode is returning only the HTTP status code, and connection.getResponseMessage is returning only the HTTP status message - but you're PHP does nothing to manipulate those values. You might try:

$target_path  = "./upload/";
$src = $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name'];

$target_path .= basename($src);

if(file_exists($src) 
        && 
        && move_uploaded_file($src, $target_path)
   ) {
    echo "The file ".basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name'])." has been uploaded";
} else {
    header("Server Error", true, 503);
    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
    $msg = "src size ? " 
       . filesize($src) . "\n dest dir writable ?"
       . is_writeable(dirname($target_path)) ? "Y\n" : "N\n"
       . "FILES contains :\n";
       . var_export($_FILES,true);
    // now write $msg somwhere you can read it
}

This shuld help in narrowing down what went wrong

private String mString;
private Uri image_uri;  
private String response;    
private HttpURLConnection conn = null;
private DataOutputStream dos = null;
private String lineEnd = "\r\n";

//then call these two methods on button's onclick listener

mString = getRealPathFromURI(image_uri);

ImageUpload();

//write these methods here
