The fix is unfortunately not in 4.1.1. An easy workaround is to put your GIF in drawable-nodpi/ instead and to perform the scaling use Bitmap.createScaledBitmap() (this API does not cause the bug to happen.) Alternatively you should think about using PNG instead. GIFs scaled at runtime are converted to ARGB_8888 bitmaps so you lose the benefit of low memory usage anyway.On Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 10:27 AM, Josh F. <joshf...@gmail.com> wrote:Thanks Romain, I really appreciate you fixing this without even a bug report being filed. We were using the same GIF for multiple densities as the auto-scaling worked quite well for us, so that must have been the problem. Can you clarify if this was fixed in the 4.1.1 that is now being released or if we should expect it in a future update? We have some plans for other games and features to existing that may benefit from GIF again so it would help to know when/if we should consider using them again. Thanks again!

Josh, I encountered the same problem in my app while running on hardware. I'm just going to switch over to png..

As it stands right now you had to be at Google I/O to get one and tickets sold so fast I was not able to get one. To test this issue and the fix I have had to rely on my users who were there and have a Galaxy 7, which is not going to work to create a sample project example of the issue required to post an official bug report. Hopefully in a few weeks I'll get my Galaxy 7 and do just that.If someone in the community has a device that they would be willing to test with me on, I can send sample files/etc. to create the bug report sooner.

Please feel free to file a bug report on http://b.android.com, with a
sample project demonstrating the issue.
