If you need something more of code, just say. I suck...

Help me!

Thanks in advance !

Sorry for my english.

Go to line #71 of your xml file. What do you have in this line? — Jose Rodriguez, Aug 16 '14 at 22:23

I have a similar error one time. On line #71 do you have a definition of Button:

<Button
    android:id="@+id/button1"
    style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
    android:layout_width="60dp"
    android:layout_height="60dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="30dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="430dp"
    android:background="@drawable/menu_button"
    android:onClick="menu" />

I offer you some solutions to your problem:

Override onLowMemory method on your Activities to free some resources from memory.
Use more WeakReference, SoftReference and WeakHashMap, to avoid strong references, that will be used by the garbage collector to free memory.
Use inSampleSize and inJustDecodeBounds options on BitmapFactory.Options to decode bitmaps, as shown here.
In my particular problem, I decided to reduce the size of the image to use.
Set android:largeHeap = "true" on Manifest as describe here.

This is not a valid solution. Something goes wrong with memory allocation and freeing resources. This does not fix the problem, just makes it takes a lot more effort to appear. – Jitsu Aug 27 '14 at 17:24
@Jitsu, this fix the problem to Pawel, when you post a solution let me know. – Jose Rodriguez Aug 27 '14 at 17:53

dont set the **android:largeHeap="true"**. That should be the last option – eldjon Aug 27 '14 at 18:34
To avoid future confusion I will put them in order of priority, thanks @eldjon. – Jose Rodriguez Aug 27 '14 at 18:37

By increasing the heap size you do not solve the bad memory usage in you program. Working with bitmap is a little tricky and you should be very careful about them. Google developer site has a complete section about working with bitmap which I suggest you should read.
