Menu
i have an android app with 3 acitivtys:
A1 --starts--> A2 --starts--> A3 --when finished his process: starts--> A1
(so i don't "finish();" an app. i start the next activitys with "startActivity(..);" the whole time after userinteraction)
so there is a loop in these 3 activitys. On each Activity, i display 3-9 pictures, located on the SD-card, which i load with my following function:
try
{
Uri selectedImageURI = Uri.parse(strImagePath);
File imgFile = new File(getRealPathFromURI(selectedImageURI, c));
Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgFile.getAbsolutePath());
ivTmp.setImageBitmap(myBitmap);
}catch (Exception e)
{
return null;
}
This all works. But sometimes (after looping a few times through my activitys), my app crashes..
Logcat tells me:

Someone can give my some tips how to handle the crashes? Maybe its because my activitys are set to state "paused" instead of closing them correctly?

Choose the most appropriate decode method based on your image data source. These methods attempt to allocate memory for the constructed bitmap and therefore can easily result in an OutOfMemory exception. Each type of decode method has additional signatures that let you specify decoding options via the BitmapFactory.
The bitmap is stored in its original compressed form to save memory (PNG, JPEG, etc) The bitmap is stored in 24-bpp format so its slower to access than a 32-bpp image. The bitmap is not stored in a packed memory array and is fragmented so can't be read/written fast.
if you write bitmap. recycle() then it will release memory of bitmap, if you want to use again you have to create new one. Thanks!
A bitmap is simply a rectangle of pixels. Each pixel can be set to a given color but exactly what color depends on the type of the pixel. The first two parameters give the width and the height in pixels. The third parameter specifies the type of pixel you want to use.
for quick fix you can add
android:largeHeap="true" in your manifest application tag

I face OOM problem for my table in kindle and nook
Heap size (large)
android:largeHeap="true"
there specification is mentioned to use larger heap link here:
edit: use Caching Bitmaps technique link here
