403:The request is understood, but it has been refused Twitter Android
I am trying to tweet on twitter from android. Now for this i have create an application on dev.twitter and downloaded sample code from this link and update both keys with my app keys.
Now i run the code authenticate the account and after it i tweet and this tweet includes image and text both image was on URL as define in sample code. Now i first time it shows me image and text successfully uploaded but when i try to again tweet it gives me 403 status update error.
For this i change the text message "status Text" and image URL but still it is giving me "403 status" update error. I have the same code as written in sample code only keys are changed.
Here is my Logcat:

Answer
I had this same error and upgrading to the latest version of twitter4j 3.0.5 (at the time of this writing) fixed the issue.
Get the latest here http://twitter4j.org/en/index.html#download
EDIT: I should mention that the version i was running was twitter4j 3.0.3. So by going to version 3.0.5 or 3.0.6 fixed the issue for me.
