app crashes while fetching images from server on some devices

I am fetching images from a server and setting it in a list view. The problem is that it is working properly in many devices but in some devices it crashes while downloading for first the time.
But when I try to do it again it opens without any problem. For the first time it says out of memory error. is this problem related to coding or its just related to heap memory of devices?
here's the log-

You have to change the cordova.js in your www folder to the one of android cordova.js

This is wher the error is being caused:
10-08 10:46:41.994: E/Cordova(763): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=gap://ready }
The system is not able to find an intent that will handle the display of data by calling the deviceReady() function. This leads me to beleive you might have an error in your project setup.
Double check if you have set everything up using this guide
Make sure you have reversed any iphone specific changes you might have made to your setup files etc whenmigrating your code form ios to android.

zoomLayout.removeAllViews();
zoomLayout.addView(zoomView, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
android.widget.LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
mapView.displayZoomControls(true);
mapView are defined as private in public class MapsActivity extends MapActivity.
at View zoomView = mapView.getZoomControls(); eclipse show this warning : The method getZoomControls() from the type MapView is deprecated

If you using large bitmaps, recycling the bitmaps to free up memory using recycle() method on bitmap when that bitmap no more used, might help you.

Check if this answer helps you: Strange out of memory issue while loading an image to a Bitmap object
