ABOVE CODE TO SELECT IMAGE FROM GALLERY
@Override

}
NOW POST THE DATA USING MULTIPART FORM DATA
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("LINK TO SERVER");
Multipart FORM DATA
MultipartEntity mpEntity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
if (filePath != null) {
File file = new File(filePath);
Log.d("EDIT USER PROFILE", "UPLOAD: file length = " + file.length());
Log.d("EDIT USER PROFILE", "UPLOAD: file exist = " + file.exists());
mpEntity.addPart("avatar", new FileBody(file, "application/octet"));
}
FINALLY POST DATA TO SERVER
httppost.setEntity(mpEntity);
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
