It looks like the formatting of your code snippet has been lost, but I think the issue is that you're not actually calling 'UploadSessionStartAsync'. You immediately increment 'idx', so 'idx = 0' never returns true. I recommend adding some more logging and/or stepping through with a debugger to work out what's going on.
