android filedialog then upload to server

For my Activity i have two buttons, one is to pick a file using FileDialog, and then the other one is to upload it. My problem here is getting the value of the file from the FileDialog. I'm just using toast in my FileDialog method so that i can see the file name being selected. I'm using this one as a reference click here. How can i get the filename and the path of the file and then place it in a string variable. Can you help me with these? Sorry I'm a novice.
FileDialog method
public static void openDialogToUploadFile(final Activity activity,final Context context) {
File mPath = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "//DIR//");
FileDialog fileDialog = new FileDialog(activity, mPath);
fileDialog.setFileEndsWith(".txt");
fileDialog.addFileListener(new FileDialog.FileSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void fileSelected(File file) {
Toast.makeText(context, "File: "+file, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
fileDialog.showDialog();
}
In here i want the value of the uploadFileName and uploadFilePath will be coming from the FileDialog method. How can i achieve this?

You should give up the thinking of save the name and path, and grab it later. Simply work on it directly, like below, pass in extra arguments if you need to.
public static void openDialogToUploadFile(final Activity activity,final Context context) {
File mPath = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "//DIR//");
FileDialog fileDialog = new FileDialog(activity, mPath);
fileDialog.setFileEndsWith(".txt");
fileDialog.addFileListener(new FileDialog.FileSelectedListener() {
#Override
public void fileSelected(File file) {
Toast.makeText(context, "File: "+file, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
doSomething(file.getName(), file.getAbsolutePath())
}
});
fileDialog.showDialog();
}
public static void doSomething(String name, String path) {
//work with what you want here
}

It can only store the image in the server and store the path in MySQL, but it is unable to store text. Please help me.

In public int uploadFile(String sourceFileUri) {
use
String des=tv.getText().toString();
instead
String des=tv.toString();

i tried above code to capture image and upload onto php server.it works fine.when i upload image server return a value.but when i try this code i get following exception after image is uploaded onto the server and the server response.
07-27 10:50:55.303: W/System.err(4649): android.view.ViewRootImpl$CalledFromWrongThreadException: Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views.

You're correctly running upload on a separate thread (AsyncTask?) -- good. However, anytime you interact with the UI (.dialog.dismiss(), .setText(...), etc), you will need to run this on the UI thread.

it because you are trying to update the view. may be dialog.dissmiss() is causing it. because you have created it in Main thread i think. and you are dismiss it from background thread. background thread can't update view. so it may be the problem.

Try this code
public class MainActivity extends Activity {

How can I add an image file into json object?

I want to add an image file into json object . Is it possible to add image file into json object?
I tried below code but its not working ? Because i want to send that json object to the server then server will read my image file and store into that database.
JSONObject test = new JSONObject();
test.put("photo",new File(// Here i set image uri));
So when I print this json object it only show me the image path where the image stored. I want file for sending it to server.

You will need to read the bytes from that File into a byte[] and put that object into your JSONObject.
You should also have a look at the following posts :
ByteArray in JSON
Binary Data in JSON String. Something better than Base64
BSON library for java
Hope this helps.

You're only adding the File object to the JSON object. The File object only contains meta information about the file: Path, name and so on.
You must load the image and read the bytes from it. Then put these bytes into the JSON object.
