I am developing an application in android..but i got an issue of getting an error..that is out of memory exception while i am converting my file contents to byte array..i think this is the problem of reduced heap size..can u plz tell me how can i increase the vm heap size..i am using eclipse...

I noticed when you create an AVD now that you can set an application max heap size. I found that when I did WVGA800 it was set to 24. So it looks like it's more than the 16 we are used to.
I there an API method to get the value of this max heap size? I haven't looked into that yet.
How can I make my button's size to increase slightly when it is pressed and decrease again when it is released? This is for highlighting the pressed button, by using size in addition to a different color.

In above question, you can view the image in which "Internal Phone Storage" is showing where only 43.38 MB is showing , and in latest android phone, i know it is coming with higher space, i have seen 13.45 GB in Samsung Galaxy Android Phone.
But Right now, i am using HTC Hero, so my questions are:
Is there any way to increase ROM size without any side-effect? How do i increase ROM Size?
I have an app which does a bunch of image manipulations, and those images are ideally full-screen sized. It works on a G1 (or HVGA emulator), but runs out of memory on a WVGA emulator instance, because full-screen images use twice as many pixels. Fine, I can work around it by manipulating smaller images, then scaling up to WVGA at the end. There's some loss of image quality, but this is unavoidable on a WVGA device with a 16MB heap limit, so I'll live with that.
When a real WVGA device hits the streets in the next couple of months, though, it's likely to have more than 16MB heap per app, for just this kind of reason. So for best image quality, I'd like my app to adapt to this situation, and use full-screen-sized images on such a device. IOW, I'd like to implement a heuristic which sets the image size based on heap size.
In order to do so, however, the app needs to know what the maximum heap size is, and I haven't yet found an SDK call which will return this information. The various Debug.get* memory calls all seem to be to do with how much heap you have *allocated*, not how much you theoretically *can* allocate. I understand that this isn't necessarily a hard number, that issues like fragmentation and GC mean that you may not actually be able to allocate every last byte, but a theoretical number would still be useful.
Can anyone point me to an SDK call I've missed?
I know that's a subject which was discuss a lot of time and I try to find a solution since more than 6 day for the memory leak which appears in my application.
I've read this page: http://www.curious-creature.org/2008/12/18/avoid-memory-leaks-on-andr...
So, I don't use static member fields, I always use recycle() and I don't use inner class.
My application use a gallery and some bitmap. I use finalize to monitor garbage collection in each class of my application: protected void finalize() throws Throwable {try {Log.d("FINALIZE", this.toString());} finally {super.finalize();}
I could set minimum heap size in the source code like below.
--> VMRuntime.getRuntime().setMinimumHeapSize(INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE);
But I want to set this value in android.mk or androidmanifest.xml.
How do you programmatically detect the application heap size available to an Android app?
I heard there's a function that does this in later versions of the SDK. In any case, I'm looking for solution that works for 1.5 and upwards.
In google's Calendar app for Android OS, you will encounter this line in the onCreate method of CalendarActivity.
// Eliminate extra GCs during startup by setting the initial heap size to 4MB.
VMRuntime.getRuntime().setMinimumHeapSize(INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE)
Can someone explain why setting it to 4MB will eliminate GCs ? Thanks
What exactly is this? What benefit do you get by changing it?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAnyone know (with our phones running 2.2) what the optimal heap size should be? The leaked 2.2 came with 24m preset. Some ROMs run 32m. Bigger always seems better, but I've been reading other sites/forums and get conflicting thoughts.
That's why I thought I'd ask here.
I ran Linpack with both and average about 37.5 - 37.9 with either 24m or 32m.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI learned from several discussions of this group that BitmapFactory.decodeFile() allocates heap memory outside of the "java heap". My app receives encrypted files from a remote server. Decoding those files needs a lot of heap space. After finishing this decoding step most of the allocated heap space will be freed by the GC. But the (total) heap size - as displayed by the DDM - remains large. In this situation there is not enough heap space outside of the "Java heap" to decode even medium sized image files using BitmapFactory.decodeFile(). At the moment I limit the size of encrypted files to ensure that the Java heap space never increases to more than 10 MB. This ensures that there is enough memory for BitmapFactory.decodeFile(). But this is not very elegant.
Is it possible to tell the dalvik-vm to reduce the (total) heap size to have more space for decoding images or is there another solution?
Is there an extended battery for the magic that doesn't increase its size?

The problem I have is films only play as tiny thumbnails, about 1 x 1.5 inch.
I've transferred by drag and drop and via media to go, even tried setting defaults, but to no avail.
I've figured out most things with my phone but not this.
It's really infuriating as I've bought a phone for it's big screen only to watch small sized clips.
The software team in our graduation project asked for increasing the heap size per process in Android. They said that the default is "16MB" which isn't sufficient for them.
How could I custom the size?
I found a commented line in the file: /acme/my_board/BoardConfig.mk in my android source code:
# USE_CUSTOM_RUNTIME_HEAP_MAX := "64M"

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy understanding is that when you have a view that's too small to easily touch, you're supposed to use a TouchDelegate to increase the clickable region for that view. However, searching for usage examples on Google turn up multiple people asking the question, but few answers. Does anyone know the proper way to set up a touch delegate for a view to, say, increase its clickable region by 4 pixels in every direction?
