I understand most Android devices have a 16mb limit (24mb on Nexus One) on the Java heap size. Is there any way a single app can use more memory than that? I know the native SDK doesn't have this limitation but I'd like to stick with Java.

Would splitting the app into multiple processes help? – Josh Lee Mar 27 '10 at 06:57

2You can allocate as much as you want from native code yes. It's not recommended though, you should play nice with other apps. – Romain Guy Jul 09 '13 at 18:26
