title: Unable to Set Background Resource for Linear Layout
body: <p>I have a couple of phones I am testing my app on. On some of them, I am able to set the background resource  using the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>mLinearLayout.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.blurred_shanghai_startpage);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However on others the background is simple white, the rest of the app/pictures function normally however. There does not seem to be any correlation between phone model or Android version with whether or not the background is the picture I set it to, or just a blank white screen. I have also tried looking through the Android Log for anything referencing "unable to set background image" but I am unable to find anything. I have also tried directly setting the background from the XML, however this has the same effect as setting it in Java, it works on some phones, but not on others.</p>
  
  <p>If anyone has ever had this issue before I would greatly appreciate some help.</p>
