This gives me a good foundation on what I need to do for a project. I'm still learning networking and server for android, and this is pretty clear. Big up.

Everyone who is having problem with deprecated libraries, please change the sdkversion to something old like 21 maybe.

Go to build.gradle : Change compileSDKVersion to 21 (around that only). Android Studio will download the SDK and you are good to go.

Stop abusing him. He taught it very well. It is just that his SDK is an older version. Thats it.
Do some google search before shouting on someone.

Very good tutorials, but all the part with the asynctask is deprecated now. All the variable with Http (like client, post, params) can't be used. Can you do something to resolve this problem? Thx

Dear Sir! First of all, thank you for tutorials. Useful, very much. Secondly, I need your guidance: I am doing this project, backend in Spring boot and fronted in android. I have to do the same thing (more or less): among the "customer" table fields in my database I should have an image of the customer. I have followed you well on the side of the frontend (android). But since I am not familiar with PHP, I am lost o the side of preparing the Backend. Would you please work me through in my context (Spring boot server with JPA, MySQL) how I could be able to save and retrieve the image of a customer from the server (Encoding and decoding the image...)? Any tutorial for that? I really appreciate in advance. Thank you

Thanks for this tutorial. I'm also getting "Unfortunately your App has stopped" message. It's throwing a null pointer exception error : Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.graphics.Bitmap on a null object reference
at
The app gets as far as opening the gallery and letting me select a pic. But it doesn't display selected image in ImageView. Then it stops after I name the image, when I click the upload button. I'm getting the same errors on my phone and on the emulator. Any suggestions?
