You can simple put the file part along with the text part using the class below.
String charset = "UTF-8";
String requestURL = BASE_URL + "userregistration";
MultipartUtility multipart = new MultipartUtility(requestURL, charset);
multipart.addFormField("username", userJid);
multipart.addFilePart("image", imageBitmap);//ima
String response = multipart.finish();
Log.d("SERVER REPLIED", response);
You can create an MultipartUtility class as follow-
public class MultipartUtility {
private final String boundary;
private static final String LINE_FEED = "\r\n";
private HttpURLConnection httpConn;
private String charset;
private OutputStream outputStream;
private PrintWriter writer;
/**
* This constructor initializes a new HTTP POST request with content type

this.charset = charset;

URL url = new URL(requestURL);
httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
httpConn.setUseCaches(false);
httpConn.setDoOutput(true); // indicates POST method

"multipart/form-data; boundary=" + boundary);

I am using `HttpURLConnection` to achieve this.
**Create one Multipart custom class ::**

this.charset = charset;
// creates a unique boundary based on time stamp

httpConn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
httpConn.setUseCaches(false);
httpConn.setDoOutput(true); // indicates POST method

for (int i = 0; i < myFormDataArray.size(); i++) {
multipart.addFormField(myFormDataArray.get(i).getParamName(),

//add your file here.
/*This is to add file content*/
for (int i = 0; i < myFileArray.size(); i++) {
multipart.addFilePart(myFileArray.getParamName(),
new File(myFileArray.getFileName()));
}
List<String> response = multipart.finish();
Debug.e(TAG, "SERVER REPLIED:");
for (String line : response) {
Debug.e(TAG, "Upload Files Response:::" + line);
// get your server response here.
responseString = line;
}
