From another stackoverflow question, it seems that Android handles large bitmaps differently than other memory. It also seems like there is a way to force Android to recycle the bitmaps to free up memory. Can anyone enlighten me on how to do this.

My application uses 2-6 huge bitmaps at all times, so it nearly kills the phone’s memory when running, and I want to clear it up when the user quits.
