Android file uploading using loopj HttpClient

Question

I'm uploading files(Images,Videos and Audios) from Android side to PHP server. It's working good for small files. But for large files it is giving unexpected results, like file uploads but on android side it gives timeout exception. So please help me, how i tackle all the scenarios for file uploading. How i can use HttpMultipart entity and how i can set relative timeout against different size files. My code is:

File myFile = new File(filePath);
RequestParams params = new RequestParams();
try {
    params.put("uploaded_file", myFile);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
}

URL=getResources().getString(com.newing.R.string.server_adderess)+URL+fileType+"&lessonID="+LessonID;
client.post(URL, params, new AsyncHttpResponseHandler() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(String response) {
        Log.w("async", "success!!!!");
        UtilityFunctions.showNotification(getApplicationContext(),
            "File uploading completed.");
        stopSelf();
    }

    @Override
    public void onFailure(Throwable error) {
        Log.w("async", "failure!!!!");
        UtilityFunctions.showNotification(getApplicationContext(),
            "File couldn't upload. Please try later.");
        stopSelf();
    } 
});

you can try use Ion is a great library for Asynchronous Networking and Image Loading https://github.com/koush/ion

a simple example uploading a file

Ion.with(getContext(), "https://koush.clockworkmod.com/test/echo") .uploadProgressBar(uploadProgressBar) .setMultipartFile("filename.zip", new File("/sdcard/filename.zip")) .asJsonObject() .setCallback(...)
