Hi, 
I am not sure what procedure you are using, please take a look at this blog on how you can use Salesforce Mobile SDK and also ability to upload pictures. Maybe this will give you a direction.

What is the issue you are facing? The approach is to read the file locally and then send a POSTrequest to /services/data/v26.0/sobjects/attachment/{parent record id}/body endpoint.

You can find sample code here, this is for audio files but the approach is common for image files as well - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13839183/how-to-upload-an-audio-file-in-salesforce-using-android-development

I am having similar problem. Agreed i need to send a POST Request as i am unable to do with SDK. However what url i have to use for POST Request. I had made a custom field of Rich Text Area in my Opportunities object for image upload...can anyone provide the android code for same?
