How to skip splash screen Activity on low memory Android devices?

In an app with minSdkLevel=9 a splash screen is displayed by the following code:
public class SplashActivity extends Activity {
private static final int DELAY = 3000;
#Override
protected void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
try {
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash);
} catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {
// ignore
}
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
final Intent intent = new Intent(
SplashActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
}, DELAY);
Utils.init(this);
}
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
// protect from exiting the application when splash screen is shown
}
}
The activity_splash.xml layout file consists mainly of an ImageView:
<FrameLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:contentDescription="#string/app_name"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
android:src="#drawable/splash" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|center_horizontal"
android:text="#string/copyright" />
</FrameLayout>
Unfortunately, on Nexus 1 the app crashes with out of memory error:
There are 2 variants of splash.png - for mdpi (280 KByte) and xxhdpi:
Surely the splash image could be scaled down more and more variants of it could be provided (ldpi, xhdpi, ...) - but why does not the try/catch in above Java code help here?
And is there maybe a better way to handle this - maybe some directive for AndroidManifest.xml to skip SplashActivity and load MainActivity on low-memory devices?
Here the full crash trace:

Try to re-size the Image from .png to .jpg format. This will decrease the size at nearly half scale. Then use a largeHeap tag in your Activities manifest file,
<application
....
android:largeHeap="true">
Also remember to make a try catch block so that you can bypass showing the Splash screen and redirect to the main activity.
While( ! success ) {
try {
// load resources
} catch (OutOfMemoryError E) {
// do something to use less memory and try again
}
}

First of all, why would you even show this Splash screen? It's not good practice, it's code doesn't do anything other than just waiting for 3 seconds to pass, it's clearly causing problems yet you insist on fixing it rather than getting rid of it altogether. Silly!
Second of all, devices like N1 that came many years ago do not have the RAM capabilities like modern devices do. With just one bitmap you're exhausting it's resources. Either optimize your bitmap usage or get rid of it altogether and find an alternative if you have to have a Splash screen.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: ActionBarView can only be used with android:layout_width="match_parent"

Background
I use ActionBarSherlock since I wish to handle old Android versions, and since the official Google's library for old Android devices doesn't have some important classes (like the PreferenceActivity or PreferenceFragment, so that they will have an actionBar).
The problem
Recently I got this weird exception:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: ActionBarView can only be used with
android:layout_width="match_parent" (or fill_parent) at

dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method)
And I can't find out why it occurs, as only a single user has reported it even though my app works fine on older Android versions (that I've tried).
What I've tried
I've found this post, and they say they don't know how to fix it other than just ditching old Android versions...
The question
Is it possible to fix this issue in some way? If so, how?
Will going to the official Google's library fix it somehow?

Butterknife library not working with HoloEverywhere/Android bootstrap

I am currently coding on the Android Bootstrap app, I want to have the new DataPickers en make use of new widgets without worrying about porting back to 2.1+
so I use the HoloEveryWhere Library. I also use the Android Bootstrap with Butterknife library
When I debug I get this exception

I think there's a problem with the HoloEverywhere activity I use in my app.
For example I use the import org.holoeverywhere.app.Activity; in all my Activity classes.
But the Butterknife use android.app.Activity; The problem is, I can't change code in the Butterknife to use the Activity from HoloEverywhere.
Please tell me your thoughts on this I use the latest version of Butterknife and HoloEveryWhere.

Try to set up in your AndroidManifest.xml the holo theme:
<application
android:theme="#style/Holo.Theme.NoActionBar.Fullscreen"
or maybe only the in activity that is happening your problem (also in the manifest)
<activity
android:theme="#style/Holo.Theme.NoActionBar.Fullscreen"
Of course in your java class, if the component is defined as a holo component in the xml layout, in your java class you have to import that component from the holo library like you are doing:
import org.holoeverywhere.app.Activity
or
import org.holoeverywhere. whatever (like button, switch, whatever)

Check if your #InjectViews has correct type.
I've used ImageView instead of LinearLayout.

Also check if you are not using other ButterKnife's injection annotations incorrectly. I've used #OnItemClick annotation for RecyclerView, which was causing RuntimeException.

That can be the result when you have compiled against a different library than you are using at runtime.
A good explanation can be had here.
Another possibility is having a duplicate class in the classpath somewhere, such as in a library jar.

I removed Gen folder and then again clean and build project and the error has gone.

Same, error went away after a clean project and do a rebuild.
