Here is the snippet that cause this error

    public void onsearchClick(View v) {

    if (v.getId() == R.id.searcher) {
        Log.i("search has been clicked", "show");

        // this method is used to call the search activity from the
        // listmessages activity no intent is used as its need a special
        // functionality
        onSearchRequested(); // line no 150
    }

}

    This crash happened due to Out of Memory Exception as given in your log. The search icon is not being loaded properly. For using Bitmaps efficiently take a look at this.
