Splashscreen in Android app: image is not loading

Question

I am a beginner with android. I created, with android studio, a splash screen of a simple Logo (png of 1300x400 px) and when I run it work. I created an apk with the build function (to try on a smartphone) but it does not load the image (white screen for 3 seconds and then the app starts). Is it a phone problem (a simple vodafone VFD 600)?

This is the code

activity_main.xml

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Hello World!"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

    </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

activity_splash_screen.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="#f1f1f1" >

    <ImageView
    android:id="@+id/logo"
    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="www.codeseasy.com" />

    </RelativeLayout>

SplashSCreen.java

 package com.example.splashscreen;

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Handler;

public class SplashScreen extends AppCompatActivity {

@override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash_screen);

new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@override public void run() {
Intent i = new Intent(SplashScreen.this, MainActivity.class); startActivity(i);
finish(); } }, 5000);
}}

AndroidManifest.xml

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
        <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        package="com.example.splashscreen">

        <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@Mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@String/app_name"
        android:roundIcon="@Mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@Style/AppTheme">
        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">

        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
        </activity>

        </application>

        </manifest>

MainActivity.kt

package com.example.splashscreen

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
}
}

Good morning, I tried the apk on another smartphone, huawei p10, and it works. At this point the problem must be the smartphone. another question: is it possible to put a video instead of an image? obviously in the video the forward, backward, stop keys must not appear ... thanks.

Is logo in the correct folder? When you see the logo file on the Android Studio file explorer do you see anything like "drawable-xhdpi"? Or something like that? — cutiko, Apr 12 '20 at 17:10
Why do you want to load image? Put it in drawable folder and use it — MMG, Apr 12 '20 at 17:19
Cutiko. the png file is located in the res / drawable folder with the name logo.png — pasonmoasca, Apr 12 '20 at 18:49

Can you please check if your png is big in size or not .Because imageView generally doesn't like big images. And if you still want to go-ahead then try changing your image resolution then it work fine . Check the re-size method from this post .Activity runs slow with a couple of ImageView-s

Hope its helpful

Thanks for the reply... I tried the apk on another smartphone, huawei p10, and it works. At this point the problem must be the smartphone. – pasonmoasca Apr 13 '20 at 19:08
You are right .It could be device specific issue but still you can't ignore any specific device , while building your application. – Mini Chip Apr 14 '20 at 08:40
