I have similar experiences. It seems you can have about 1 full size
pic open (as a bitmap) and a few small ones. Anything extra will give
you your error-message. In your example, until you call 'photo.recycle
()' you have 2 large bitmaps open at the same time at some point
(photo and mutablePhoto)... and quite a large byte[] array (byte[]
data) is still allocated as well.
>From what i've read on these forums, you need to scale and/or crop
your image so that the final image(=bitmap) you're working on is no
larger (in pixels) than your screen (e.g. 320x480).
