Android upload - phone lagging
<p>Hello I'm using this class to upload a image. The problem is that the phone stops to do ANYTHING untill the file is uploaded. For example a image is large 1.5MB and phone 'freezes' for about 10~20 seconds depends of the internet speed. It's not the slowest mobile, so I guess that the problem is in the script. </p>
