Below is the code to send a post message. On my screen i have an EditText section to allow the user to enter text and when they hit post the sendMessage function is called. I keep getting this in the response. I have also tried URLEncode.encode(payload, "UTF-8") to get an encoded string to add to the body and that did not work. Any insight would be helpful.

Here is the code:
private static final String SendMessage = "https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/shares";
public void sendMessage(View view)
{
//Get works just fine
//OAuthRequest req = new OAuthRequest(Verb.GET, "http://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/connections:(id,last-name)");
//service.signRequest(accessToken, req);
//Response res = req.send();
//Log.e("get", res.getBody());
OAuthRequest post = new OAuthRequest(Verb.POST, SendMessage);
//Have also tried adding <?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>" to the beginning of the payload string
String payload = "<share>" +
"<comment>testing</comment>" +
"<visibility><code>anyone</code></visibility>" +
"</share>";
post.addBodyParameter("body", payload);
post.addHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml;charset=UTF-8");
service.signRequest(accessToken, post);
try
{
Response response = post.send();
Log.d("response",response.getBody());
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
LinkedInActivity.this.finish();
}
and my service is being defined as:
service = new ServiceBuilder()
.provider(LinkedInApi.class)
.apiKey(API_KEY)
.apiSecret(API_SEC)
.callback(CALLBACK)
.debug()
.build();
final Token requestToken = service.getRequestToken();
final String authURL = service.getAuthorizationUrl(requestToken);
I use a webview to catch the callback to save the verifier/token. Example is below:
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()
{
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if(url.startsWith("oauth")){
webView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
Uri uri = Uri.parse(url);
String verifier = uri.getQueryParameter("oauth_verifier");
Verifier v = new Verifier(verifier);
//save token
accessToken = service.getAccessToken(requestToken, v);
if(uri.getHost().equals("linkedIn")){
editText.setText(appState.socialMediaMessage);
//place the cursor at the end of the predefined text
editText.setSelection(editText.getText().length());
textLimit = textLimit - editText.length();
textView.setText(String.valueOf(textLimit));
}
return true;
}
return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, url);
}
});
//send user to authorization page
webView.loadUrl(authURL);
