In method uploadAvatarImage you call for the inputStream before you
have sent your bytes to the server.
Please try this instead
os.flush();
os.close();
InputStream is = servletConnection.getInputStream();
Next thing, in your servlet.
You should use InputStream instead of Reader since you are dealing
with bytes
InputStream reader = request.getInputStream();
byte[] imageBytes =
org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils.toByteArray(reader);
Hope it helps
Best regards
