Are you using only One Animation or more than one Animation – Akarsh M Oct 30 '13 at 06:09

Handler will help you to load all the animation not resolve the problem about OutOfMemory error. If am I right else suggest me @Droid – Akarsh M Oct 30 '13 at 06:24

Do one thing in the manifest.xml
<application
android:largeHeap="true">
</application>
Or
make call the Animation in runOnUiThread (Runnable action) or AsyncTask
Or
Single Image need memory:
In this case you have 100 images and dimensions are 400*262.
So , 100 * 400*262*4 = ? KB , size occur during the loading time. If the animation is exceeding the limit of Virtual Heap Memory.
Error will occur defiantly.
For this :
Reduce the dimensions of Image
Or
use less images for the animation
or
split into two animation file after one completion start another one

Try to use Handler and call Handler after few millisecond. It will also reduce the memory issue(OOM).
