Your "dead simple project" will not run on any version of Android, due
to a typo in your manifest.

Also, on the Android 2.3 emulator, your "dead simple project" crashes
immediately with a "bitmap size exceeds VM budget".

Your problem can be solved by removing your recycle() call and putting
your background PNG into the appropriate resource sets (drawable-ldpi,
drawable-mdpi, drawable-hdpi). This has a side benefit of allowing
your application to run on Android 2.3.
