Application crashes on clicking the item in Options Menu

Question

I am working on an android application called 'MyBMI'. I have created an item called 'About MyBMI' in the options menu which when clicked takes the user to another activity called 'AboutActivity'. But, when I click 'About MyBMI' in the options menu, my application crashes. Please help.

Answer 1

Just a guess but have you added this about activity to the manifest?

Ok I think you're running out of bitmap space. You need to start recycling your bitmaps! There will be a bitmap method called .Recycle() which you can execute before changing activity! This should hopefully solve your problem!

Or you're loading a bitmap which is too large.. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The stacktrace says: Your activity has a RelativeLayout that has a background drawable that is too large and causes out-of-memory. Make the image smaller to make it consume less memory.
