I am creating an app. It has a text box and an image box.Once the user filled those out, he clicks "make this a fb post" button. Then I want my app to open facebook mobile app as intent. New "ready to post" post should be created with the text and image. Is this possible to achieve. If yes, can you please let me know the way. If no, is there an alternative way.

Try this code 

File filePath = getFileStreamPath("shareimage.jpg");  //optional. use your image path
         Intent shareIntent = new Intent();
         shareIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
         shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, _text);
         shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,Uri.fromFile(new File(filePath)));  //optional//use this when you want to send an image
         shareIntent.setType("image/jpeg");
         shareIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
         startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "send"))

;

I recommend you to use Facebooks Share Dialog. So you can achieve your goal in 1 step.
