    <p>I have gotten some reports from users of crashes when try use my application on Verizon's 4G/LTE.</p> <p>Looking at the stack trace, it looks like Android's HttpClient.execute() implementation is throwing an OOM. This happens only on 4G/LTE devices, specifically HTC Thunderbolt, and only when on 4G/LTE. WiFi, 3G, UMTS are OK. Also works fine on Sprint's WiMax 4G stuff works fine.</p> <p>Two questions:</p> <ul> <li><p>What's the best way to get the attention of Android devs about this? Any better options than reporting on <a href="http://code.google.com/p/android/issues">http://code.google.com/p/android/issues</a>?</p></li> <li><p>Any ideas on how I can work around this? I don't have a 4G device myself and I can't get this happen in the emulator so I need to make some educated guesses here. I can try to catch the OOM in my code and attempt to cleanup and force GC, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea. Comments or other suggestions?</p></li> </ul> <p>Here's what my code's doing:</p> <pre><code> HttpParams params = this.getHttpParams(); // returns params ClientConnectionManager cm = new ThreadSafeClientConnManager(params, this.getHttpSchemeRegistry() ); DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient( cm, params ); HttpResponse response = null; request = new HttpGet( url ); try { response = httpClient.execute(request); // &lt;-- OOM on 4G/LTE. OK otherwise int statusCode = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode(); Log.i("fetcher", "execute returned, http status " + statusCode ); ... </code></pre> <p>Here's the crashing stack trace: </p> <blockquote> <p>E/dalvikvm-heap(11639): Out of memory on a 2055696-byte allocation.
