Android uploading photo to post on imgur programmatically

I tried different methods to download and get the link through imgur, but none of them were successful, despite the fact that he looked at the imgur api. http://api.imgur.com/examples#uploading_java

But the following methods partially work. im trying to get

errors: if any errors have occurred. Link to image: link to image posted delete link: link to delete the posted image

But I only get the delete link, as the rest are empty, check it out:

public void post(String path) {


    List<NameValuePair> postContent = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);  
    postContent.add(new BasicNameValuePair("key", DEV_KEY));  
    postContent.add(new BasicNameValuePair("image", path));


    String url = "http://api.imgur.com/2/upload";
    HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext();
    HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);

    try {
        MultipartEntity entity = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);

        for(int index=0; index < postContent.size(); index++) {
            if(postContent.get(index).getName().equalsIgnoreCase("image")) {
                // If the key equals to "image", we use FileBody to transfer the data
                entity.addPart(postContent.get(index).getName(), new FileBody(new File (postContent.get(index).getValue())));
            } else {
                // Normal string data
                entity.addPart(postContent.get(index).getName(), new StringBody(postContent.get(index).getValue()));
            }
        }

        httpPost.setEntity(entity);

        HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpPost, localContext);
        mImgurResponse = parseResponse (response);


        Iterator it = mImgurResponse.entrySet().iterator();
        while(it.hasNext()){
            HashMap.Entry pairs = (HashMap.Entry)it.next();

            Log.i("INFO",pairs.getKey().toString());
            if(pairs.getValue()!=null){
                reviewEdit.setText(pairs.getValue().toString());

            Log.i("INFO",pairs.getValue().toString());
            }
        }


    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

private Map<String,String> parseResponse(HttpResponse response) {
        String xmlResponse = null;

        try {
            xmlResponse = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
        } catch (ParseException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        if (xmlResponse == null) return null;

        HashMap<String, String> ret = new HashMap<String, String>();
        ret.put("error", getXMLElementValue(xmlResponse, "error_msg"));
        ret.put("delete", getXMLElementValue(xmlResponse, "delete_page"));
        ret.put("original", getXMLElementValue(xmlResponse, "original_image"));

        return ret;
    }

private String getXMLElementValue(String xml, String elementName) {
        if (xml.indexOf(elementName) >= 0)
            return xml.substring(xml.indexOf(elementName) + elementName.length() + 1, 
                    xml.lastIndexOf(elementName) - 2);
        else
            return null;
    }

All that I will return at the end is hashmap mImageResponse with only a delete link ...

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
