Hi,
I agree about the size limit problem. I think there should be a size
limit (to keep RAM for OS other app), but we should be able to check
in our code if we are 'near' the allocation limit for our app.
Anyway, for your case : would it be possible to REMOVE all images from
the .apk, and
Thanks for the interesting suggestion, although it sounds a little
technical for my limited expertise.
I don't like the idea of the users having to download all that data
every time they use my program. That basically turns the app into just
a web site, sort of.
I could probably shrink it all

25% Don't you think that that is too much? Most users install more
than 4-5 applications. I would never ever install an application that
is that large.
I do however agree with the others who says that it's ok if you
download the images dynamically, and stores it on the sdcard. That's
how my
Well that idea of downloading of data onto the SD card does sound like
the proper route to take. If it didn't happen every start-up then it
isn't much of a problem at all.
I'll sort out the details and take that good advice. Thanks for the
help folks.

apps more than 1MB is relatively very large on android. Maybe you can
work around by put something on sd card.

I;d like to add another 100 or so images

Considering G1's only have 64mb, you're in a rough spot. We've had a ton of
user complaints with our apps that are around 5.5mb.
This link says G1 has 192 MB RAM an 256 ROM (ROM used for what?).
Seems like it is not easy to find
Correct, they have 192mb RAM. However, a good chunk of that is partitioned
away as OS space, etc.
The data partition is 76mb (I incorrectly said 64mb). Here's a breakdown of
those partitions:

I meant to reply to the public board.
As I was saying, doesn't this application size limit pose a barrier to
apps which use sound or video clips? Although my app has lots of pics
(250), they don't amount to much really, being only 300x400.each..So
this must be a problem for many apps.
