I am using BitmapFactory.decodeResource and everything is fine until I try it on a Kindle Fire. BitmapFactory.decodeResource does not return null, and GetWidth etc are all correct but mbuffer (private) is null so the bitmap is blank. I need to test at this point to see if its failed but I am not allowed to access mbuffer. Any ideas? Thanks
decodeResource() takes into account the device sceen properties. Apparently it can not decode in this way. Just try a different image. You cannot mess around with that buffer anyway. If you just want to get a bitmap then load images from raw or assets
