[Android] Failed messages are unhelfpul, and don't separate potentially-viable from invalid files
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Failed uploads simply generated a Failed message, and always allow another upload attempt.

For invalid files that Commons won't accept (eg, if I try to upload an audio file renamed as a .jpg), the app should return an indication that the file is invalid, and not allow repeated upload attempts.

For connectivity and other issues, the fail reason should be noted if known.

As the Mobile Apps Team is focussing on the new, native Wikipedia app, the Commons app is no longer being maintained by the Wikimedia Foundation. I am WONTFIXing all open Commons app bugs to reflect that we will not be spending time fixing them.
