Eclipse AndroidRunTime Error. What am I doing wrong?

I got an AndroidRunTime Error and don't know what I am doing wrong. The Problem appears if I try to go from one activity to a next. If I start the app everything is ok and I can Change from one activity to the next. But after a time it stops working, although the activites are very similar...

LogCat:

        Tag: AndroidRunTime

Solution

  • I assume the OutOfMemoryError happens because of your images. The actual image size doesn't matter but the dimensions do.

    Example: a JPEG, when uncompressed, allocates 24 bits per pixel (8 bits for red, green and blue accordingly). So if we take one 1920x1080 image as example: 1920px*1080px*24bit / 1024(KB) / 1024(MB) / 8(bits in byte) = appox. 6 MByte of memory are allocated per image. Using many of them can cause a heap overflow.

    Beside of that, Android's BitmapFactory tends to fail sometimes when decoding large images ("large" in terms of pixels), thus it's recommended to check your Bitmap's dimensions and downscale it appropriately. There are a lot of examples around, take a look at the official documentation covering this topic.
