You can not load image from jar by resource id. Android build system does not process jar resources in any way, it just embeds them as if they were simple text files. And therefore any image located inside jar is not treated as resources, and con not be accessed via resource ID.

If you need to access drawables from library, consider using Android Library instead.

Documentation on how to setup library project can be found here. More details on what is different between jars and Android Libraries can be found in my post Android Application, Android Libraries and Jar Libraries.
