If you have a Photoshop, here's how I do it to preserve the hard edge and still look pixelated.

-Open the desired image in Photoshop -save as a copy and choose as a bitmap : .pbm file -now open the new .pbm file you just saved and select image size and change the image size there with preserve hard edges option.

If you don't have Photoshop, you can still do it with paint -Open your image, save as-> choose .bmp -then open the .bmp file you created, choose image size and resize the image

difference is the Photoshop is better to preserve the hard edges because they have a better interpretation. But paint is still good to get the job done, I had enlarge a 32*32 picture to 900*900 and still look pretty good.

I have enlarged it to a very large size and then reduced and sharpened the image using Photoshop.This is a simple trick called Supersampling

See if adding this in eclipse helps.

Contact me if u want an even higher resolution version , I'll mail you one

There isn't really enough context given for me to provide a solution, but at the very least I can guess.

You want to load the image in a Drawable and call setFilterBitmap(false) before setting it to an ImageView.

A brief example:

public class MyActivity extends Activity {

private Drawable smallResource;

private ImageView resourceImageView;

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

    resourceImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.iv_resource);

    smallResource = getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.small_resource);
    smallResource.setFilterBitmap(false);

    resourceImageView.setImageDrawable(smallResource);
}

Try reducing the image size and keep the imageview size fixed
