fwiw: i skipped the social plugin on android since it’s only half a solution anyway (twitter=ok, facebook=no), and “rolled my own” social module with separate solutions using facebook plugin (“me/photos”) and http://silverthorax.com/libs/twitter/ (no affiliation), in both cases using same captured image saved to temp dir, no problems noticed (as yet! cross fingers!!) with either, still using public build 2189.
@dave I’ve been trying to brainstorm my own solution, seeing as how any third-party (or first-party, in some cases) social media implementations seem to break every couple of months.
I do like your solution, even though it uses some paid software (not that that is in and of itself a bad thing) and I will be seriously considering it. Have you confirmed that the silverthorax option still posts text AND photos in the same tweet? This is the falling-down point we have come to in this thread.
as of yesterday afternoon, yes still working (photo + message), same as i originally implemented a month (-ish) ago, no recent changes. i use its table parameter syntax, just so i can specify callbacks, but i doubt it matters much - the “shortcut” syntax likely works identically (assume it just maps nils to the unspecified table params). only diff with table method is you must manually get the full file path (where shortcut method assumes just filename, and tries to ‘guess’ full path as needed).
i’m not affiliated, so not plugging their software, but i was in same boat a month ago, where nothing seemed to work (even back THEN - not social, not ggtwitter, …), and only thing i found that DID work was that. so, i just cross fingers that it continues to work, but honestly i have to do same with facebook plugin too. twitter and/or facebook could change something on the server-side tomorrow and break everything.
The strange thing, as jonjonsson notes above, other twitter clients don’t seem to accept both the text and the image. It’s either one or the other. I use Tweetcaster myself (it’s great, everyone should use it) but i can’t get it to post both images and comments. It did use to work from what I’ve read. Brutal.
I’m hoping that the bug report gets some traction, but there is another thread that was opened with this issue (specifically relating to GGTwitter) and the suggestion was to review twitter’s APIs to figure out why posting pictures isn’t working any more. Hopefully because this issue affects the social plugin the engineers will throw some eyeballs at it.
I sincerely hope engineering fix this soon.
The social plugin on Android is worthless. No Facebook (I understand why) and a severely broken Twitter. I don’t want to pay for a 3rd party solution - I’ve paid for the Corona solution! 
Add that to the AdMob banner issue bug and Corona is rather frustrating me at the moment. Not good at all.

I share that sentiment, but that’s why I’m only on a basic subscription (for my personal use). About the only thing of interest for me at Pro is social, but on Android it doesn’t do facebook, and (currently) seems to be having trouble with twitter. Seriously? A “social” plugin that doesn’t do facebook or twitter?! So, Corona won’t get that extra $30/mo from me, as a one time $10 seemed the smarter investment. But if I had already paid for Pro, I’d be screaming for a fix just as loudly. (*and* for admob)
I am a well-known Corona homer, so it’s hard for me to come down hard on them, but Dave hits the nail on the head here. Without Twitter and Facebook, social isn’t social. And I hate Facebook! Google+ isn’t mature yet, and my penetration in countries that use Okrut is non-existent. I need Twitter and Facebook to work.
I of course have other stuff to work on in the meantime, but I really want to test my social stuff. Far too often I end up staring at my computer screen drumming my fingers.
LOLZ aside, I’m looking forward to the daily build with this working!
@Dave Bollinger @Panc - totally agree with everything you’ve both said.
@Panc - you crack me up with the video humor! :D

@Panc - you crack me up with the video humor! :D :)
Yeah, It’s BRILLIANT!
Reported as case 32972 earlier in this thread by Ingemar.
Any news or an ETA on when this bug will be fixed? Unable to attach Twitter images using the social plugin on Android as it stands.
Thanks - MAS1
Engineering is looking into it, no ETA yet.
Thanks Rob.
Twitter image attachment now working on Android. Yippee!
@Panc
I’m still on the same build that I previously experienced the error with: Corona build 2317.
This entry:
["CoronaProvider.native.popup.social"] = { publisherId = "com.coronalabs", },
in build.settings should mean that the resolution is server-side due to the code being a plugin.
Best - MAS1.
Word, just wanted to double-check. You can never be too careful…
@Panc,
Your video posts crack me up! Totally the funniest thing on the forums!
It’s almost worth having a bug-infested SDK just to see your video clips. Now … I just need to find some time to report the bug about that pesky “AdMob interstitial fires when it feels like it” bug!

It’s still not working for me. Just updated to the most recent SDK, using GGTwitter and Tweetcaster. My posting code is below:
local function twitterPostTest(event) if event.phase == "began" then titleGame3.alpha = .4 end if event.phase == "ended" then timer.performWithDelay(2000, function() local screenBounds = { xMin = 0, xMax = 1092, yMin = 0, yMax = 1092, } local myCaptureImage = display.captureBounds( screenBounds, true ) display.save( myCaptureImage, { filename="group.png", baseDir=system.DocumentsDirectory } ) myCaptureImage:removeSelf() myCaptureImage = nil local alert = native.showAlert( "Success", "Screen Capture Saved to Library", { "OK" } ) timer.performWithDelay(1000, function() twitter:post( "Testing out GGTwittter with pictures!", "group.png" ) end, 1) end, 1) print("TWITTER ICON WORKING!!") titleGame3.alpha = 1 end end
I’m going to try different display capture options, working from the assumption that my image can’t be accessed, and will post updates as events warrant.
@Panc,
I’m not much use here I’m afraid. I don’t use GGTwitter or Tweetcaster. I use the social plugin and the standard Twitter app. I’m pretty sure that those combinations would work for you also if you fancy trying them!
Best of luck - MAS1
Posting with only text still works with GGTwitter. I mostly jumped on this thread as the OP was reporting an issue with GGTwitter, and it did work for me for a while (only in testing, to be fair).
I’ll test with the native Twitter client and the share panel and I’ll report back shortly.
