App unfortunately stopped Error when creating a splash screen

Question

I am trying to create a splash screen using android studio. But I'm getting a error when it launches.It says unfortunately app_name has stopped.

splashscreen.xml

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="@color/colorPrimary" >

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/imgLogo"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true"
            android:src="@drawable/logo" />

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
            android:textSize="12dp"
            android:textColor="#454545"
            android:gravity="center_horizontal"
            android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
            android:text="OK Google" />


        </RelativeLayout>

SplashScreen.java

public class SplashScreen extends Activity
    {

        // Splash screen timer
        private static int SPLASH_TIME_OUT = 8000;

        @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.splashscreen);

            new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {

                @Override
                public void run() {
                    // This method will be executed once the timer is over
                    // Start your app main activity
                    Intent i = new Intent(SplashScreen.this, MainActivity.class);
                    startActivity(i);

                    // close this activity
                    finish();
                }
            }, SPLASH_TIME_OUT);
        }

    }

AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

You can use this code to do what you want . I use it in my app and it works if the problem is not with your MainActivity actually

public class SplashActivity extends Activity implements Runnable {

    Thread mThread;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.splashScreen);
        mThread = new Thread(this);

        mThread.start();
    }

    @Override
    public void run(){
        try {
            Thread.sleep(8000);
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        finally {
            startActivity(new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class));

            finish();
        }
    }
}

Your code looks fine. The error is that the device is running out of memory. One of the reason could be that your logo file in drawable folder is too large.

You can also try to run this code on a device with more free memory just to confirm.
