Working with bitmaps is a little hard on Android. One thing to do is to resize or pack them so that they take up less memory. Another thing you may want to look into is to reuse the bitmap object/memory. You may have to do this in native though. As other have pointed out System.gc() just gives the system a hint that it needs to run the garbage collector.
Good luck.
