Out of memory error

I am trying to retrieve a list of images and text from a web service. I have first coded to get the images to a list using Simple Adapter. The images are getting displayed the app is showing an error and in the Logcat the following errors occur...

04-26 10:55:40.594: INFO/Process(584): Sending signal. PID: 1047 SIG: 3

Here's the coding in the adapter...

final ImageView imageView = (ImageView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.image);
        AsyncImageLoaderv asyncImageLoader=new AsyncImageLoaderv();
        Bitmap cachedImage = asyncImageLoader.loadDrawable(imgPath, new AsyncImageLoaderv.ImageCallback() {
            public void imageLoaded(Bitmap imageDrawable, String imageUrl) {

                imageView.setImageBitmap(imageDrawable);
            }
            });
        imageView.setImageBitmap(cachedImage);

To load the image...

public static Bitmap loadImageFromUrl(String url) {
            InputStream inputStream;Bitmap b;
        try {

            inputStream = (InputStream) new URL(url).getContent();
            BitmapFactory.Options bpo=  new BitmapFactory.Options();
            bpo.inSampleSize=2;
             b=BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream, null,bpo );
             return b;
        } catch (IOException e) {
                throw new RuntimeException(e);
            }
           //return null;
     }

Please tell me how to fix the error....

You are getting OOM Errors because your Bitmap is taking up too much of memory. See if this can help: Handling large Bitmaps. Down sampling the image to half its original size may still result in an image that is just too big for the runtime.
