users save 3 data: name, note , image. can see code below, succeeded code send name , note server side. but, have no idea how send selected image file device serverdb.

how can code between client-server annotation send image file?..

you can convert selected image base 64 string , pass string server , in server decode that,

check code convert image base64,if have imageview can write code,

imageview.builddrawingcache(); bitmap bm = imageview.getdrawingcache(); bytearrayoutputstream baos = new bytearrayoutputstream();   bm.compress(bitmap.compressformat.jpeg, 100, baos); //bm bitmap object    byte[] b = baos.tobytearray();  string encodedimage = base64.encodetostring(b , base64.default); 

edit

as in code,you have byte array in line,

image = extras.getbytearray("blob"); 

so can directly write line of code after that,

string encodedimage = base64.encodetostring(image , base64.default);
