   If your host blocks access to XML-RPC, you can get around it by following these steps:

   1. Rename your xmlrpc.php file to something different, but only change it after the 'xmlrpc'. Ex: xmlrpc_wp.php
   2. Install this plugin
   3. Read the installation instructions and activate it.
   4. Remove your blog from the app and add it back again.

   Mirror just in case I break it (it's on a test blog):

   Does this also work for the HTML < and > signs getting stripped? I am having this problem when trying to upload pics from the app and ive read previous posts stating its a libxml2 issue and a php version issue. However my provider isnt planning to upgrade their php version anytime soon and im stuck with them for another year!!

   Any ideas?
