Ensure two things:
1. Make sure you are not leaking memory. More info here http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/01/avoiding-memory-leaks.html
2. Reduce the Bitmap memory. Check if downsampling Bitmaps in an option. More info here Strange out of memory issue while loading an image to a Bitmap object.

Check SO for "Handling large Bitmaps" and "OutOfMemoryError" I am sure that are plenty of discussions that can help you here.
