I want to make image/picture as background but using android:background="#ffff" makes it white and it works. As soon as I change to android:background="@drawable/background_image" and run it, crash.

2`Nothing crashes` - you just said that it is crashing in your title. The question I marked explains what your question is missing to be on-topic. As for now it is off-topic because it is missing exception stacktrace, related code, etc. – Vladyslav Matviienko Aug 21 '18 at 11:55

1Look at [the stack trace](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23353173) to determine the cause of the crash. – Mike M. Aug 21 '18 at 11:58

Maybe your image is too big and it has high resolution, try compressing and resizing it http://resizeimage.net/ using this website and put the compressed image as background if that doesn't work also try to put the image in xhdpi or xxhdpi folder
