Runtime Exception,view.InflateException,reflection.InvocationTargetException and OutOfMemoryError

Question

I'm developing my first game for android.I've been running and testing my codes then and there in my android phone(Samsung Galaxy S2).In the finishing stages of my game,i added google admob services.Once it was added my game began to slow down.Game shuts down at some point with list of exceptions in the logcat.None of these logcat entries provide me a clue of what and where my error is from.

This is my logcat entry,

I couldn't even find if the error is from java code or xml file.Please help me figure out this.

NOTE:In my Toshiba at10-a(Tablet) this game runs smooth without such exceptions.

I want my game to work on all devices in the same way.Please help me finish this first game of mine.

Are you inflating heavy images or lot of them, OutOfMemoryError? in the UI thread? — Atul O Holic, Mar 19 '14 at 14:51

Check this Android developer link. And have the images in appropriate folder with appropriate sizes. When you don't have images in appropriate size, the os will try to adjust the image size itself and that causes out of memory exception.

I've done it already.I placed images with different dpi's in different drawable folders. – abtdw Mar 19 '14 at 15:36
