Android app not running; java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

Question

I've searched around a bit and couldn't find anything relevant to my question or it didn't work. Anyways I'm getting an error message saying java.lang.OutOfMemoryError when I try running my app on my Android phone. There is plenty of space left on the phone so I don't see why there should be an error.

You can find in developer site how to scale a bitmap. https://developer.android.com/topic/performance/graphics/load-bitmap.html From this link you may get help to load large image.
