How many leechers / people downloading it were there?
Do other torrents you downloaded from the web work?
Additionally did you just the trackers to the list or did you also publish your torrent somehow? I know of some trackers that require you to upload the .torrent and provide a description plus more information, otherwise nobody will be able to find it.
Edit: regarding the last point, trackers like the pirate bay allow uploading a torrent file (which is the procedure I knew of), but it seems like that isn't always necessary with trackers. Many are just indexed by torrent search sites, so your torrent can be found.
Maybe just leave transmission open for a while and check that there actually leechers downloading it. BTW, if you aren't already, consider a VPN, otherwise anybody will be able to see what you're torrenting.

There were no leeches, just 2 other android devices. No I didn't register the torrent. When I download torrents they work. I think its the copying that broke it
