 <p>I received this error with regards to the largeHeap Attribute, my application did not run under eclipse but under ant it still built and ran normally.</p> <p>The android <a href="http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/manifest-element.html" rel="nofollow">documentation</a> states that:</p> <blockquote> <p>xmlns:android</p> <pre><code>Defines the Android namespace. This attribute should always be set to "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android". </code></pre> </blockquote> <p>I erased that line in my manifest, saved in eclipse, pasted the line back in and saved again, and it worked. In my case I guess the problem was eclipse, ant and adb not talking to each other correctly and the saving reset something. Interestingly restarting eclipse did not solve this problem (usually with these types of problems restarting eclipse is the first thing you should try, and usually it solves the problem).</p>
