Answer 1

You can do this with a Multipart post request:(This way, you dont need to create json)

        HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpPost post = new HttpPost(serverURL);
        MultipartEntity postEntity = new MultipartEntity();
        File file = new File("Your File path on SD card");
        postEntity.addPart("fileupload", new FileBody(file, "image/jpeg"));
        postEntity.addPart("loginKey", new StringBody(""+loginKey));
        postEntity.addPart("message", new StringBody(message));
        postEntity.addPart("token", new StringBody(token));
        post.setEntity(postEntity);
        response = client.execute(post);

You have to add this mime4j library.

You can use this code in your asynctask:

File file = new File("Your File path on SD card");
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpost = new HttpPost("YourUrl");

MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity();
entity.addPart("YourKey",new StringBody("Your Text"));
entity.addPart("File", new FileBody(file));
httpost.setEntity(entity);


HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpost);
