title: Simple upload to S3 from android
body: <p>I've searched the web for ways to upload a simple file to s3 from android but couldn't find anything that work and I think it is because lack of concrete steps.</p>
  
  <p>1.)

  <p>That is the best guide I found but it does not tell what libraries to include. I downloaded the aws sdk for android and inside there were many jars. So intuitively, I included the aws-android-sdk-s3-2.2.5.jar however that is not complete. It does not have the class BasicAWSCredentials.</p>
  
  <p>2.)I've looked at the more at the sample but it is not straightforward as #1 and I couldn't get the core upload functionality with credentials.</p>
  
  <p>I appreciate your help</p>
