Out of memory on a 121925780-byte allocation.
You app ran out of memory.
To note: the image i use, i have resized it so that, it fits the entire screen. is this could be the problem?
Yes the likely cause is this background image which needs to be scaled down. Each app is allocated a certain heap size. As of android 3.0 and above bitmap pixel data is stored in the heap. You need to scale down the image.
