Android : OutOfMemoryError Error at Bitmap

Question

I'm getting error of java.lang.OutOfMemoryError and crash the app while run the application for download the multiple images from server and stored into SD card.I have some changes in gradle.properties and change the line # org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m -XX:MaxHeapSize\=1024m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xmx1024m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8. And trying to call the System.gc(); also .But getting same error again and again.How to solve this issues. Thanks in advanced.

here is my code

The error at this line imagenObtenida = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(conn.getInputStream(), null, options);

Log.e("fileUrl ", " = " + fileUrl + " ImageName = " + ImageName);
            URL ImgUrl = new URL(fileUrl);
            HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) ImgUrl.openConnection();
            conn.connect();
            int lenghtOfImage_File = conn.getContentLength();
            Log.e("lenghtOfImage_File ", " = " + lenghtOfImage_File);


                System.gc();
                if(imagenObtenida != null)
                {
                    imagenObtenida.recycle();
                    imagenObtenida = null;
                }
                BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
                options.inTempStorage = new byte[16*1024];
                options.inPurgeable = true;
                options.inSampleSize = 1;

                imagenObtenida = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(conn.getInputStream(), null, options);
                newFolder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + File.separator + "classnkk_images");

                File file = new File(newFolder, ImageName);

Here is my Log error

Its better to use `Glide` or `Fresco` libraries to load multiple images from server. — Piyush, Oct 16 '15 at 05:58

This means that you are downloading either too many or too big images. Please make sure that you download only those images which you need and images are of appropriate resolution. — Rohan Kandwal, Oct 16 '15 at 06:01
@androidTag you can set `android:largeHeap="true"` in your Application tag — IntelliJ Amiya, Oct 16 '15 at 12:16

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Requested size exceeds VM limit. This error indicates that a Java application attempts ti allocate an array, whose size is larger than the heap size.

The OutOfMemoryError extends the VirtualMachineError class, which indicates that the JVM is broken, or it has run out of resources and cannot operate.

Verify that your application does not store unnecessary information. Store and maintain only those pieces of information required for the proper execution of your Java application.

The image that u r trying to download from the server might be large and hence while trying to decode it, it results in OOM exception.
