Why 4" and 5" screen not showing images properly

Question

I have develop a simple application and compile it with screen resolution 480*800 mdpi emulator.It shows all images perfectly placed on screen.

I have added images only in drawable folder.

But when i try the same application with 480*800 hdpi emulator the images looks big on the screen and all alignment gets distracted.

Do I need the different image size for mdpi and hdpi pixel density for same screen resolution i.e 480*800 also?

Thanks.

Yes. For different screen densities, you should provide appropriately scaled bitmaps.

This way they will look the best on all devices, without Android having to scale them.
