OutOfMemoryError on ViewPager

Question

I'm using a ViewPager with 13 pages. It is managed using a FragmentStatePagerAdapter, and each page loads 250ko images as backgrounds, and sometimes 5 images more per page.

I get extremely often an OutOfMemoryError error and I'm testing my app on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, so I guess I'm doing something wrong.

Is there a way to release images which are not used on the life cycles of my Fragments on the ViewPager? Any other idea?

Thanks in advance.

Setting up the android:largeHeap to true is also extremely useful for this kind of problems.
