In this example I am sending an XML document from the web service to my Android based client. I hope this helps bro.

Answer 2

It is possible to send image via ksoap by following steps:

• convert the Image into byte[]
• add byte[] of the image as property
• register SoapSerializationEnvelope with MarshalBase64() like this : new MarshalBase64().register(envelope);
• call your web service which takes byte[] as parameter

Then receiving the message you can convert the receieved byte[] into image file.
