I have used three images in layout where two are set in layout and one load from drawable at runtime. In 2.1, 2.3, 3.0, 3.1 it works fine but I am getting an error with 2.2 and 2.3.3.

{
    if(mDrawable != null)
    {

    }
    }
}

I am getting an error at

Drawable mDrawable = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.heart);
mDrawable.setColorFilter( Color.MAGENTA, Mode.MULTIPLY );
mInnerAuraImage.setImageDrawable(mDrawable);

Would somebody help me why this happen in 2.2? What would I do with this Drawable?

My Logcat output for error:

It looks like one of the images in your layout is causing an OutOfMemory exception, possibly @drawable/outeraura.

I would check the amount of RAM that you have assigned to the emulator, and also look at the size of your drawable images. If they are large then you will get speed and memory improvements by scaling them down to match the target screen density.
