How can I make my images consume less memory? - android

I am developing a game and I was working with the graphics, I run into some force closes. So my question is : How can we make images to consume less memory in android?
I´ll explain my game, it´s a logic game with a few small images and a background. I´m testing the app in a galaxy note, 1 GB of RAM, and I thought it could take the high resolution but if I use big image for the background, it force closes after going to the pause layout and back.
So I have lowered the graphics and done with no force closes. Anyway is there some way to avoid this memory issue? I´m setting the images directly on the xml is that wrong?
Solved
I have decided to go with this method, thanks to Durairaj Packirisamy for the answer
Here is my code:
Bitmap unscaledimgswitch = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.switch1on);
ImageView switch1 = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.switch1);
int viewheight = screenheight / 10;
int imgheight = unscaledimgswitch.getHeight();
switch1.getLayoutParams().height = viewheight;
BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
options.inSampleSize = ScaledFactor.getScaleFactor(imgheight ,viewheight); // de esta forma cargo la imagen del tamaño exacto necesario
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
imgswitch = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.switch1on, options);
switch1.setImageBitmap(imgswitch);
And in an other class
static int getScaleFactor(int imgheight, int viewheight) {
int result;
result = imgheight / viewheight ;
return result;
}

You need to use a proper BitmapFactory.options.inSampleSize value, If set to a value > 1, requests the decoder to subsample the original image, returning a smaller image to save memory.
BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inSampleSize = 4;
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(stream, null, options);

BitmapFactory.decodeStream out of memory despite using reduced sample size

I have read many related posts concerning memory allocation problems with decoding bitmaps, but am still unable to find the solution to the following problem even after using the code provided in the official website.
Here is my code:
public static Bitmap decodeSampledBitmapFromResource(InputStream inputStream, int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int len;
try {
while ((len = inputStream.read(buffer)) > -1) {
baos.write(buffer, 0, len);
}
baos.flush();
InputStream is1 = new ByteArrayInputStream(baos.toByteArray());
InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(baos.toByteArray());
final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is1, null, options);
options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, reqWidth, reqHeight);
options.inPurgeable = true;
options.inInputShareable = true;
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
options.inPreferredConfig = Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888;
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is2, null, options);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
public static int calculateInSampleSize(BitmapFactory.Options options, int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
// Raw height and width of image
final int height = options.outHeight;
final int width = options.outWidth;
int inSampleSize = 1;
if (height > reqHeight || width > reqWidth) {
// Calculate ratios of height and width to requested height and width
final int heightRatio = Math.round((float) height / (float) reqHeight);
final int widthRatio = Math.round((float) width / (float) reqWidth);
// Choose the smallest ratio as inSampleSize value, this will guarantee
// a final image with both dimensions larger than or equal to the
// requested height and width.
inSampleSize = heightRatio < widthRatio ? heightRatio : widthRatio;
}
return inSampleSize;
}
bitmap = decodeSampledBitmapFromResource(inputStream, 600, 600);
I am getting "Out of memory error on a 3250016 - byte allocation" in this line:
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is2, null, options);
It would seem to me that 3.2 MB is small enough to be allocated. Where am I going wrong? How can I solve this?
EDIT
After looking into this solution HERE by N-Joy it works fine with Required size 300 but my required size is 800, so i am still getting the error.
The method decodeSampledBitmapFromResource is not memory efficient because it uses 3 streams: the ByteArrayOutputStream baos, ByteArrayInputStream is1 and ByteArrayInputStream is2, each of those stores the same stream data of the image (one byte array for each).
And when I test with my device (LG nexus 4) to decode an 2560x1600 image on SDcard to target size 800 it takes something like this:
03-13 15:47:52.557: E/DecodeBitmap(11177): dalvikPss (beginning) = 1780
03-13 15:47:53.157: E/DecodeBitmap(11177): dalvikPss (decoding) = 26393
03-13 15:47:53.548: E/DecodeBitmap(11177): dalvikPss (after all) = 30401 time = 999
We can see: too much memory allocated (28.5 MB) just to decode 4096000 a pixel image.
Solution: we read the InputStream and store the data directly into one byte array and use this byte array for the rest work.
Sample code:
public Bitmap decodeSampledBitmapFromResourceMemOpt(
InputStream inputStream, int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
byte[] byteArr = new byte[0];
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int len;
int count = 0;
try {
while ((len = inputStream.read(buffer)) > -1) {
if (len != 0) {
if (count + len > byteArr.length) {
byte[] newbuf = new byte[(count + len) * 2];
System.arraycopy(byteArr, 0, newbuf, 0, count);
byteArr = newbuf;
}
System.arraycopy(buffer, 0, byteArr, count, len);
count += len;
}
}
final BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(byteArr, 0, count, options);
options.inSampleSize = calculateInSampleSize(options, reqWidth,
reqHeight);
options.inPurgeable = true;
options.inInputShareable = true;
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
options.inPreferredConfig = Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888;
int[] pids = { android.os.Process.myPid() };
MemoryInfo myMemInfo = mAM.getProcessMemoryInfo(pids)[0];
Log.e(TAG, "dalvikPss (decoding) = " + myMemInfo.dalvikPss);
return BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(byteArr, 0, count, options);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
The method that does the calculation:
public void onButtonClicked(View v) {
int[] pids = { android.os.Process.myPid() };
MemoryInfo myMemInfo = mAM.getProcessMemoryInfo(pids)[0];
Log.e(TAG, "dalvikPss (beginning) = " + myMemInfo.dalvikPss);
long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
FileInputStream inputStream;
String filePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
.getAbsolutePath() + "/test2.png";
File file = new File(filePath);
try {
inputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
// mBitmap = decodeSampledBitmapFromResource(inputStream, 800, 800);
mBitmap = decodeSampledBitmapFromResourceMemOpt(inputStream, 800,
800);
ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.image);
imageView.setImageBitmap(mBitmap);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
myMemInfo = mAM.getProcessMemoryInfo(pids)[0];
Log.e(TAG, "dalvikPss (after all) = " + myMemInfo.dalvikPss
+ " time = " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime));
}
And the result:
03-13 16:02:20.373: E/DecodeBitmap(13663): dalvikPss (beginning) = 1823
03-13 16:02:20.923: E/DecodeBitmap(13663): dalvikPss (decoding) = 18414
03-13 16:02:21.294: E/DecodeBitmap(13663): dalvikPss (after all) = 18414 time = 917
This is a common issue which user normally faces while playing with large bitmaps and there are lots a questions discussed on site, here, here, here and here and many more, even though user not able to manipulate the exact solution.
I stumbled upon a library sometime back which manages bitmaps smoothly and others links which I listed below. Hope this helps!

Solution for OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget
ARGB_8888 uses more memory as it takes Alpha color value so my suggestion is to use RGB_565 as stated HERE
Note: Quality will be little low compared to ARGB_8888.
You're probably holding on to previous bitmap references. I'm guessing that you're executing this code several times and never executing bitmap.recycle(). Memory will inevitably run out.
I had many problems with Bitmap memory usage.
Results:
Most devices have limited heap memory for graphics, most small devices are limited to 16MB for overall apps, not just your app
Use 4 bit or 8 bit or 16 bit bitmaps if applicable
Try to draw shapes from scratch, omit bitmaps if possible.
Use WebView to dynamically load as many images as you like, it's built using NDK (low level) so has no GDI heap memory restrictions.
It works smooth and fast :)
Out of memory problems when decoding bitmaps are not often linked with the image size you are decoding.
Of course if you try to open an image 5000x5000px you will fail with a OutOfMemoryError, but with the size of 800x800px it is totally reasonable and should work fine.
If your device is out of memory with a 3.2 MB image it's likely because you are leaking context somewhere in the app.
It's the first part of this post:
I guess problem is not in your layout, problem is somewhere else in
your code. and probably you are leaking context somewhere.
What it means it's that you are using Activity Context in components that should not, preventing them to be garbage collected. Because there components often are held by activities, those activities are not GC and your java heap will grow very fast and your app will crash at one time or another.
As Raghunandan said, you will have to use MAT to find wich Activity/Component is held and remove the context leak.
The best way I found for now to detect context leak is orientation change.
For example, rotate your ActivityMain multiple times, run MAT and check if you have only one instance of ActivityMain. If you have multiple ones (as much as rotation changes) it means there is a context leak.
I found years ago a good tutorial on using MAT. Maybe there is better one now.
Other posts on memory leaks:
Android - memory leak or?
Out of memory error on android emulator, but not on device
Have a look at this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CruQY55HOk. Do not use system.gc() as suggested in the video. Use a MAT Analyzer to find out memory leaks. The returned bitmap is too huge causing memory leak i guess.
It seems you have large image to display.
You can download image and save to sdcard (example) then you can user this
code to display image from sdcard.
i also had same problem earlier.. and i have managed it by using this function where you can get scale as your required width and height.
private Bitmap decodeFile(FileInputStream f)
{
try
{
//decode image size
BitmapFactory.Options o = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(f,null,o);
//Find the correct scale value. It should be the power of 2.
final int REQUIRED_SIZE=70;
int width_tmp=o.outWidth, height_tmp=o.outHeight;
int scale=1;
while(true)
{
if(width_tmp/2<REQUIRED_SIZE || height_tmp/2<REQUIRED_SIZE)
break;
width_tmp/=2;
height_tmp/=2;
scale*=2;
}
//decode with inSampleSize
BitmapFactory.Options o2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
o2.inSampleSize=scale;
return BitmapFactory.decodeStream(f, null, o2);
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e) {}
return null;
}

Loading multiple high quality bitmaps and scaling them

I've got a serious performance issue in my app, when loading up bitmaps it seems to take up way to much memory.
I have a drawable folder which contains the bitmap sizes for all android devices, these bitmaps are of high quality. Basically it goes though each bitmap and makes a new one for the device depending on the size. (Decided to do it this way because it supports the correct orientation and any device). It works but it's taking up way to much memory and takes along time to load. Can anyone make any suggestions on the following code.
public Bitmap getBitmapSized(String name, int percentage, int screen_dimention, int frames, int rows, Object params)
{
if(name != "null")
{
_tempInt = _context.getResources().getIdentifier(name, "drawable", _context.getPackageName());
_tempBitmap = (BitmapFactory.decodeResource(_context.getResources(), _tempInt, _BM_options_temp));
}
else
{
_tempBitmap = (Bitmap) params;
}
_bmWidth = _tempBitmap.getWidth() / frames;
_bmHeight = _tempBitmap.getHeight() / rows;
_newWidth = (screen_dimention / 100.0f) * percentage;
_newHeight = (_newWidth / _bmWidth) * _bmHeight;
//Round up to closet factor of total frames (Stops juddering within animation)
_newWidth = _newWidth * frames;
//Output the created item
/*
Log.w(name, "Item");
Log.w(Integer.toString((int)_newWidth), "new width");
Log.w(Integer.toString((int)_newHeight), "new height");
*/
//Create new item and recycle bitmap
Bitmap newBitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(_tempBitmap, (int)_newWidth, (int)_newHeight, false);
_tempBitmap.recycle();
return newBitmap;
}
There's an excellent guide over on the Android Training site:
http://developer.android.com/training/displaying-bitmaps/load-bitmap.html
It's about efficient loading of bitmap images - highly recommended!
This will save space. If not using Alpha colors it would be better not to use one with the A channel.
Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inScaled = false;
options.inPreferredConfig = Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888;
// or Bitmap.Config.RGB_565 ;
// or Bitmap.Config.ARGB_4444 ;
Bitmap newBitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(_tempBitmap, (int)_newWidth, (int)_newHeight, options);

Android - Out of Memory Exception in ScrollView

I know this must be one of the most asked things at SO, but none of the other answers gave me a solution. But from reading the other answers, looks like I'll need to redesign the way the App is working.
It's like this, we have a ScrollView, which will inflate some views. A ListView can't be used in this situation, because to behave the way we want it would require extending the ListView, and this is something we don't want to do (even though this seems to be our only solution to our current way of showing items, because of this OOM exception). The list can have a lot of columns per row, and the bigger the screen, more columns it will have.
Each inflated View has a layout displaying some info from the database, including a picture. This picture is stored through a byte array. It's any picture taken with the device camera. Currently every photo (byte array) is taking 800kb to 1mb, which seems a lot to me. Now the list have 30+ items. I took photos until the OOM happened, and it happened when I took a total of 6 photos (occasionally 7). That would be 8mb-9mb of data. Everytime I go to other Activity, and go back to the Activity the ScrollView is in, the list needs to be repopulated.
This is the snippet of the PopulateList method:
if (item.getImg() != null) {
if (App.debug) {
Log.d(TAG, "Setting bmp.");
}
Bitmap bmp = App.byteArrayToBmp(item.getImg());
imgV.setImageBitmap(bmp);
}
Every inflated View will open an 'Advanced Dialog', which will contain other info. Maybe the Image could be there instead on the list (meaning that there would be only 1 bitmap, as every inflated View shares the same advanced dialog). Or I could extend the ListView and benefit from it recycling method (It's not a good solution as I though it would be considering more than 6 items can be at the screen). Another thing that bothers me is every picture having 800kb. Seems like a lot for a 128x128.
This is the setup for the size:
cameraParams.setPictureSize(App.pxToDpi(128), App.pxToDpi(128));
cameraParams.setPictureFormat(PixelFormat.JPEG);
camera.setParameters(cameraParams);
public static int pxToDpi(int px) {
final int scale = app.getApplicationContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics().densityDpi;
int pixels = (int) px * (scale / 160);
return pixels;
}
So, do you think there is a solution to my issue keeping the current model of my App, or will I need to reformulate?
EDIT: The bitmap method:
public static Bitmap byteArrayToBmp(byte[] byteArray) {
Bitmap img = null;
BitmapFactory.Options opts = new BitmapFactory.Options();
opts.inSampleSize = 2;
img = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(byteArray, 0, byteArray.length, opts);
return img;
}
You might want to look at the Official Android Training docs, they've just been updated:
Check out Displaying Bitmaps Efficiently with the lesson: Loading Large Bitmaps Efficiently that goes over this.
Basically you can decode the image using sampleSize to decode it to the width and height you want:
public static int calculateInSampleSize(
BitmapFactory.Options options, int reqWidth, int reqHeight) {
// Raw height and width of image
final int height = options.outHeight;
final int width = options.outWidth;
int inSampleSize = 1;
if (height > reqHeight || width > reqWidth) {
if (width > height) {
inSampleSize = Math.round((float)height / (float)reqHeight);
} else {
inSampleSize = Math.round((float)width / (float)reqWidth);
}
}
return inSampleSize;
}

"Bitmap too large to be uploaded into a texture"

I'm loading a bitmap into an ImageView, and seeing this error. I gather this limit relates to a size limit for OpenGL hardware textures (2048x2048). The image I need to load is a pinch-zoom image of about 4,000 pixels high.
I've tried turning off hardware acceleration in the manifest, but no joy.
<application
android:hardwareAccelerated="false"
....
>
Is it possible to load an image larger than 2048 pixels into an ImageView?
This isn't a direct answer to the question (loading images >2048), but a possible solution for anyone experiencing the error.
In my case, the image was smaller than 2048 in both dimensions (1280x727 to be exact) and the issue was specifically experienced on a Galaxy Nexus. The image was in the drawable folder and none of the qualified folders. Android assumes drawables without a density qualifier are mdpi and scales them up or down for other densities, in this case scaled up 2x for xhdpi. Moving the culprit image to drawable-nodpi to prevent scaling solved the problem.
I have scaled down the image in this way:
ImageView iv = (ImageView)waypointListView.findViewById(R.id.waypoint_picker_photo);
Bitmap d = new BitmapDrawable(ctx.getResources() , w.photo.getAbsolutePath()).getBitmap();
int nh = (int) ( d.getHeight() * (512.0 / d.getWidth()) );
Bitmap scaled = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(d, 512, nh, true);
iv.setImageBitmap(scaled);
All rendering is based on OpenGL, so no you can't go over this limit (GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE depends on the device, but the minimum is 2048x2048, so any image lower than 2048x2048 will fit).
With such big images, if you want to zoom in out, and in a mobile, you should setup a system similar to what you see in google maps for example. With the image split in several pieces, and several definitions.
Or you could scale down the image before displaying it (see user1352407's answer on this question).
And also, be careful to which folder you put the image into, Android can automatically scale up images. Have a look at Pilot_51's answer below on this question.
Instead of spending hours upon hours trying to write/debug all this downsampling code manually, why not use Picasso? It was made for dealing with bitmaps of all types and/or sizes.
I have used this single line of code to remove my "bitmap too large...." problem:
Picasso.load(resourceId).fit().centerCrop().into(imageView);
Addition of the following 2 attributes in (AndroidManifest.xml) worked for me:
android:largeHeap="true"
android:hardwareAccelerated="false"
Changing the image file to drawable-nodpi folder from drawable folder worked for me.
I used Picasso and had the same problem. image was too large at least in on size, width or height. finally I found the solution here. you can scale the large image down according to display size and also keep the aspect ratio:
public Point getDisplaySize(Display display) {
Point size = new Point();
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB_MR2) {
display.getSize(size);
} else {
int width = display.getWidth();
int height = display.getHeight();
size = new Point(width, height);
}
return size;
}
and use this method for loading image by Picasso:
final Point displySize = getDisplaySize(getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay());
final int size = (int) Math.ceil(Math.sqrt(displySize.x * displySize.y));
Picasso.with(this)
.load(urlSource)
.resize(size, size)
.centerInside()
.into(imageViewd);
also for better performance you can download the image according to width and height of the display screen, not whole the image:
public String reviseImageUrl(final Integer displayWidth, final Integer displayHeight,
final String originalImageUrl) {
final String revisedImageUrl;
if (displayWidth == null && displayHeight == null) {
revisedImageUrl = originalImageUrl;
} else {
final Uri.Builder uriBuilder = Uri.parse(originalImageUrl).buildUpon();
if (displayWidth != null && displayWidth > 0) {
uriBuilder.appendQueryParameter(QUERY_KEY_DISPLAY_WIDTH, String.valueOf(displayWidth));
}
if (displayHeight != null && displayHeight > 0) {
uriBuilder.appendQueryParameter(QUERY_KEY_DISPLAY_HEIGHT, String.valueOf(displayHeight));
}
revisedImageUrl = uriBuilder.toString();
}
return revisedImageUrl;
}
final String newImageUlr = reviseImageUrl(displySize.x, displySize.y, urlSource);
and then:
Picasso.with(this)
.load(newImageUlr)
.resize(size, size)
.centerInside()
.into(imageViewd);
EDIT: getDisplaySize()
display.getWidth()/getHeight() is deprecated. Instead of Display use DisplayMetrics.
public Point getDisplaySize(DisplayMetrics displayMetrics) {
int width = displayMetrics.widthPixels;
int height = displayMetrics.heightPixels;
return new Point(width, height);
}
BitmapRegionDecoder does the trick.
You can override onDraw(Canvas canvas), start a new Thread and decode the area visible to the user.
As pointed by Larcho, starting from API level 10, you can use BitmapRegionDecoder to load specific regions from an image and with that, you can accomplish to show a large image in high resolution by allocating in memory just the needed regions. I've recently developed a lib that provides the visualisation of large images with touch gesture handling. The source code and samples are available here.
View level
You can disable hardware acceleration for an individual view at runtime with the following code:
myView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);
I ran through same problem, here is my solution. set the width of image same as android screen width and then scales the height
Bitmap myBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(image.getAbsolutePath());
Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
Point size = new Point();
display.getSize(size);
int width = size.x;
int height = size.y;
Log.e("Screen width ", " "+width);
Log.e("Screen height ", " "+height);
Log.e("img width ", " "+myBitmap.getWidth());
Log.e("img height ", " "+myBitmap.getHeight());
float scaleHt =(float) width/myBitmap.getWidth();
Log.e("Scaled percent ", " "+scaleHt);
Bitmap scaled = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(myBitmap, width, (int)(myBitmap.getWidth()*scaleHt), true);
myImage.setImageBitmap(scaled);
This is better for any size android screen. let me know if it works for you.
Scale down image:
BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
// Set height and width in options, does not return an image and no resource taken
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imagefile, null, options);
int pow = 0;
while (options.outHeight >> pow > reqHeight || options.outWidth >> pow > reqWidth)
pow += 1;
options.inSampleSize = 1 << pow;
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
image = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imagefile, null, options);
The image will be scaled down at the size of reqHeight and reqWidth. As I understand inSampleSize only take in a power of 2 values.
Use Glide library instead of directly loading into imageview
Glide : https://github.com/bumptech/glide
Glide.with(this).load(Uri.parse(filelocation))).into(img_selectPassportPic);
I tried all the solutions above, one-after-the-other, for quite many hours, and none seemed to work! Finally, I decided to look around for an official example concerning capturing images with Android's camera, and displaying them. The official example (here), finally gave me the only method that worked. Below I present the solution I found in that example app:
public void setThumbnailImageAndSave(final ImageView imgView, File imgFile) {
/* There isn't enough memory to open up more than a couple camera photos */
/* So pre-scale the target bitmap into which the file is decoded */
/* Get the size of the ImageView */
int targetW = imgView.getWidth();
int targetH = imgView.getHeight();
/* Get the size of the image */
BitmapFactory.Options bmOptions = new BitmapFactory.Options();
bmOptions.inJustDecodeBounds = true;
BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgFile.getAbsolutePath(), bmOptions);
int photoW = bmOptions.outWidth;
int photoH = bmOptions.outHeight;
/* Figure out which way needs to be reduced less */
int scaleFactor = 1;
if ((targetW > 0) || (targetH > 0)) {
scaleFactor = Math.min(photoW/targetW, photoH/targetH);
}
/* Set bitmap options to scale the image decode target */
bmOptions.inJustDecodeBounds = false;
bmOptions.inSampleSize = scaleFactor;
bmOptions.inPurgeable = true;
/* Decode the JPEG file into a Bitmap */
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imgFile.getAbsolutePath(), bmOptions);
/* Associate the Bitmap to the ImageView */
imgView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
imgView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
NOTE FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO PUT IMAGES OF SMALL SIZE:
Pilot_51's solution (moving your images to drawable-nodpi folder) works, but has another problem:
It makes images TOO SMALL on screen unless the images are resized to a very large (like 2000 x 3800) resolution to fit screen -- then it makes your app heavier.
SOLUTION: put your image files in drawable-hdpi -- It worked like a charm for me.
Using the correct drawable subfolder solved it for me. My solution was to put my full resolution image (1920x1200) into the drawable-xhdpi folder, instead of the drawable folder.
I also put a scaled down image (1280x800) into the drawable-hdpi folder.
These two resolutions match the 2013 and 2012 Nexus 7 tablets I'm programming. I also tested the solution on some other tablets.
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
///*
if (requestCode == PICK_FROM_FILE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && null != data){
uri = data.getData();
String[] prjection ={MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA};
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri,prjection,null,null,null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(prjection[0]);
ImagePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
FixBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(ImagePath);
ShowSelectedImage = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
// FixBitmap = new BitmapDrawable(ImagePath);
int nh = (int) ( FixBitmap.getHeight() * (512.0 / FixBitmap.getWidth()) );
FixBitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(FixBitmap, 512, nh, true);
// ShowSelectedImage.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(ImagePath));
ShowSelectedImage.setImageBitmap(FixBitmap);
}
}
This code is work

Android -- Map markers displaying differently (dip/px or decompression)

I'm having an odd problem with my map pin sizes. To preserve dynamic-ness, the map pins for different categories are stored on a site's server so that they can be changed at any point even after the app is published.
I'm caching the pins every time I download them and I only ever re-download them if the server sends back a bit saying that one has changed since last I downloaded it. The first time I grab the pins, I use the bitmaps before I save them to files and the map markers are the correct size. Every time after that I'm loading a saved version of the pins straight from the image file. These are displaying considerably smaller than they are when using the bitmaps from the first download.
At first, I thought it was a problem with the way I'm saving the PNGs, but their sizes are correct (64 x 64). Is this a dip/px issue or do I need to decompress the image files with some sort of option?
Here's how I grab the images the first time:
public static Bitmap loadMapPin(String category, int width, int height) {
URL imageUrl;
category = category.toLowerCase().replace(" ", "");
try {
imageUrl = new URL(PIN_URL+category+".png");
InputStream is = (InputStream) imageUrl.getContent();
Options options = new Options();
options.inJustDecodeBounds = true; //Only find the dimensions
//Decode without downloading to find dimensions
BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is, null, options);
boolean scaleByHeight = Math.abs(options.outHeight - height) >= Math.abs(options.outWidth - width);
if(options.outHeight * options.outWidth >= width * height){
// Load, scaling to smallest power of 2 that'll get it <= desired dimensions
double sampleSize = scaleByHeight
? options.outHeight / height
: options.outWidth / width;
options.inSampleSize =
(int)Math.pow(2d, Math.floor(
Math.log(sampleSize)/Math.log(2d)));
}
options.inJustDecodeBounds = false; //Download image this time
is.close();
is = (InputStream) imageUrl.getContent();
Bitmap img = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is, null, options);
return img;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
And here's how I'm loading them from the cached file:
BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filepath);
Thanks in advance!
I've found that, by default, decompressing an image to a bitmap doesn't scale with high density screens. You have to set the density to none. In other words, you specify that the image is meant for an unknown density.
Solution:
Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(filepath);
b.setDensity(Bitmap.DENSITY_NONE);
