How to post image and text on facebook wall without using open graph API

I have developed a sample project where i am displaying Text and an Image and i am able to post it on facebook wall . I have shown the code and the image of it below .This appears like how we add a photo into our wall with status message

- (IBAction)postStatusUpdateClick:(UIButton *)sender
{
    UIImage *image =[UIImage imageNamed:@"[email protected]"];


    NSMutableDictionary* params = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
    [params setObject:@"Test with Image" forKey:@"message"];
    [params setObject:UIImagePNGRepresentation(image) forKey:@"picture"];
    shareOnFacebook.enabled = NO; //for not allowing multiple hits

    [FBRequestConnection startWithGraphPath:@"me/photos"
                                 parameters:params
                                 HTTPMethod:@"POST"
                          completionHandler:^(FBRequestConnection *connection,
                                              id result,
                                              NSError *error)
     {
         if (error)
         {
             //showing an alert for failure
             [self showAlert:@"Facebook unable to share photo " result:result error:error];
         }
         else
         {
             //showing an alert for success
             [self showAlert:@"Facebook share photo successful" result:result error:error];
         }
         shareOnFacebook.enabled = YES;
     }];
}


// UIAlertView helper for post buttons
- (void)showAlert:(NSString *)message
           result:(id)result
            error:(NSError *)error {

    NSString *alertMsg;
    NSString *alertTitle;
    if (error) {
        alertTitle = @"Error";
        if (error.fberrorShouldNotifyUser ||
            error.fberrorCategory == FBErrorCategoryPermissions ||
            error.fberrorCategory == FBErrorCategoryAuthenticationReopenSession) {
            alertMsg = error.fberrorUserMessage;
        } else {
            alertMsg = @"Operation failed due to a connection problem, retry later.";
        }
    } else {
        NSDictionary *resultDict = (NSDictionary *)result;
        alertMsg = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Successfully posted '%@'.\nPost ID: %@",
                    message, [resultDict valueForKey:@"id"]];
        alertTitle = @"Success";
    }

    UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:alertTitle
                                                        message:alertMsg
                                                       delegate:nil
                                              cancelButtonTitle:@"OK"
                                              otherButtonTitles:nil];
