RelativeLayout having FrameLayout with 15 ImageButton in it Crashes

Question

i have a activity with RelativeLayout in which there is a FrameLayout and in FrameLayout there are 15 ImageButtons. App crashes whenever that activity loads. here is my xml code.

 <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true" >
    <FrameLayout
            android:id="@+id/bodyFrontView"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
            android:layout_below="@+id/bodyFrontBtn"
            android:layout_marginBottom="50dp"
            android:layout_alignParentLeft="true">
            <ImageButton
               android:id="@+id/head"
               android:layout_width="match_parent"
               android:layout_height="match_parent"
               android:background="@null"
               android:contentDescription="@string/app_name"
               android:scaleType="centerInside"
               android:layout_gravity="center"
               android:src="@drawable/head"
                android:clickable="false"
                android:focusable="false"/>
... so on 14
    </FrameLayout>
    </RelativeLayout>

Remove android:background="@null" from all ImageButton

Problem is your images are too large in terms of resolution or size. Now you can do two things:

Load image of low resolution(matching with height or width of image button) and small in size
Use Glide library to load images to ImageButton, It will change resolution according to view in which you want to display image.

Add this in build.gradle (app level) inside dependencies block

 compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.7.0'

sync you project.

then in you activity on create :

 Glide.with(this).load(R.drawable.bg).into(imageButton);

Use option 2 it will work definitely.

You need to resize your images to fit in memory or you can use below method to set images efficiently without resizing.
