How can I fetch a large image from a url?

I used the code below to fetch the image from a url but it doesn't working for large images.

Am I missing something when fetching that type of image?

imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageView01);
  imgView.setImageBitmap(loadBitmap("http://www.360technosoft.com/mx4.jpg"));

  //imgView.setImageBitmap(loadBitmap("http://sugardaddydiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/how_do_i_get_sugar_daddy.jpg"));
     //setImageDrawable("http://sugardaddydiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/holding-money-copy.jpg");
  //Drawable drawable = LoadImageFromWebOperations("http://www.androidpeople.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/android.png");
  //imgView.setImageDrawable(drawable);

 /* try {
     ImageView i = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageView01);
     Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream((InputStream)new URL("http://sugardaddydiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/holding-money-copy.jpg").getContent());
     i.setImageBitmap(bitmap); 
   } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
     System.out.println("hello");
   } catch (IOException e) {
    System.out.println("hello");
   }*/
    }


 protected Drawable ImageOperations(Context context, String string,
   String string2) {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  try {
   InputStream is = (InputStream) this.fetch(string);
   Drawable d = Drawable.createFromStream(is, "src");
   return d;
  } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
   e.printStackTrace();
   return null;
  } catch (IOException e) {
   e.printStackTrace();
   return null;
  }

 }

If you want to download the image very quickly then you can use AQuery which is similar to JQuery just download the android-query.0.15.7.jar

Import the jar file and add the following snippet

 AQuery aq = new AQuery(this);   
 aq.id(R.id.image).image("http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Q95xppgGoeo/TJzGNaeO8zI/AAAAAAAAADE/kez1bBRmQTk/s1600/Sri-Ram.jpg");   

// Here R.id.image is id of your ImageView 
// This method will not give any exception 
// Dont forgot to add Internet Permission

You're trying to download the Large Image from within the UI Thread....This will cause an ANR (Application not Responding)

Use AsyncTask to download the images, that way, a seperate thread will be used for the download and your UI Thread wont lock up.
