Android:java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Failed to allo

Question

I want to show the Bitmap image in ImageView from sd card which is stored already. After run my application is crash and getting OutOfMemoryError error of:

(java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Failed to allocate a 23970828 byte allocation with 2097152 free bytes and 2MB until OOM)

I have no idea or why its out of memory. I think my image size is very large so I tried to change it.

Iterator<String> it = imageArray.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
  Object element = it.next();
  String objElement = element.toString();
  Log.e("objElement ", " = " + objElement);
  final ImageView imageView = new ImageView (getContext());
  final ProgressBar pBar = new ProgressBar(getContext(), null, 
                                           android.R.attr.progressBarStyleSmall);
  imageView.setTag(it);
  pBar.setTag(it);

  imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.img_placeholder);
  pBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

  if (objElement.endsWith(mp3_Pattern)) {
     Log.e("Mp3 ", " ends with ");
     pBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
     imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.audio_control);
  }
  if (objElement.endsWith(png_Pattern)) {
     Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(objElement);
     int size = Math.min(bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
     int x = (bitmap.getWidth() - size) / 2;
     int y = (bitmap.getHeight() - size) / 2;
     Bitmap bitmap_Resul = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap, x, y, size, size);
     Log.e("bitmap_Resul "," = "+ bitmap_Resul);

     if (bitmap_Resul != bitmap) {
        bitmap.recycle();
     }
     imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap_Resul);
     Log.e("png_Pattern ", " ends with ");
     Log.e(" bitmap "," = " + bitmap);
  }

  holder.linearLayout.addView(imageView);
  holder.linearLayout.addView(pBar);

The log cat information:

Answer 1

Last but not the least....

Try Method One:

Simple Add these lines of code in the gradle file

dexOptions {
        incremental true
        javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
     }

Example:

android {
    compileSdkVersion XX
    buildToolsVersion "28.X.X"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.xxxxx"
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 19
    }

dexOptions {
        incremental true
        javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
     }
}

*******************************************************************

Method Two:

Add these two lines of code in manifest file...

android:hardwareAccelerated="false" 
android:largeHeap="true"

Example:

<application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:hardwareAccelerated="false"
        android:largeHeap="true"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

It will Work for sure any of these cases.....

Answer 2

have you tried adding this to your manifest under applications? android:largeHeap="true"?

like this

  <application
      android:name=".ParaseApplication"
      android:allowBackup="true"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
      android:largeHeap="true" >

Answer 3

I had the problem too.

Same with most of others above. The problem is caused by huge image.

Just resize some images, and no need to change any code.

Answer 4

Bitmap image =((BitmapDrawable)imageView1.getDrawable()).getBitmap();

ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream=new ByteArrayOutputStream();

image.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG,50/100,byteArrayOutputStream);

50/100 if one uses 100 then original resolution can stopped the Apps for out of memory.

if 50 or less than 100 this will be 50% or less than 100 resolution so this will prevent from out of memory problem

Answer 5

This should work

 BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
 options.inSampleSize = 8;

 mBitmapInsurance = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(mCurrentPhotoPath,options);

Answer 6

My problem solved after adding

 dexOptions {
        incremental true
        javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
        preDexLibraries true
        dexInProcess = true
    }

in Build.Gradle file
