In Android you never really "close a screen". The system will --- when it feels necessary --- destroy the activity: this sets its master view to null and at that point the view will be garbage collected (eventually).
This is a core concept in Android: your application doesn't "close" the same way it does on a desktop. There are always things that you have to watch out for: in this case the salient detail is not to keep `Views` in static objects. (This will cause your app to leak views when they *are* destroyed and recreated, say by a reconfiguration when the user rotates the screen.)
