how to fix my ANR by opening new screen

Question

when I'm opening a new screen with a button my app won't respond and show up ANR, because it costs my app to long for loading the page but I don't know how to fix my problem.

it works on a older android device but on my device the app has been stopped :'(

if you need more info just ask ;)

I have an HTC one X running on the newest version of android 4.1.1 I have an app you can listen and download music for free and I have a lot of views on 1 layout more than 80 views that's the problem.

i can give you the codes but all my codes are all working because on android 3.3.7 everything works fine on a Samsung galaxy mini. the problem is that i want give more time to my application for opening the new screen because I have read that after 5 seconds automatically the ANR pop up

I guess you must try to free as much memory as possible before creating this new activity. Some ideas where to start http://android-developers.blogspot.de/2009/01/avoiding-memory-leaks.html — j.holetzeck, Apr 20 '13 at 15:28
@user2291323 Use less memory ;) Why are you putting all the layouts inside ListView? ListView uses Adapters. — MaciejGórski, Apr 20 '13 at 15:30
@ MaciejGórski because i don't know how you can do it on an other way ;o cann you help me with the adapters? — ILikeAndroid, Apr 20 '13 at 16:02

Out of memory:

This is the problem you need to address.

I have a lot of views on 1 layout more than 80 views that's the problem.

Try to reduce the number of views and run I think it will run the issue is the large number of views you are creating in the layout. This will vary from device to device some device might support the huge number of views you have.

I recently encountered a similar problem a layout was working fine on most of the major devices(samsung,motorola,lg) but was crashing on Sony Xperia S.

yes you can your listview implementation needs to be changed. Read these http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidListView/article.html && http://www.androidhive.info/2011/10/android-listview-tutorial/ – Sunny Kumar Aditya Apr 20 '13 at 17:07
