App Crashing

Question

I'm experiencing crashes in a couple instances. First, when the app opens and I see the progress bar for a second and then it crashes. The Exception in the Logcat says:

android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #2: Error inflating class <unknown>

and points to a line that references my listing_layout.

When I looked it up, the problem seems to stem from large images taking up too much memory. Is there a way to force the images to be a certain resolution?

When I remove "android:foreground="@drawable/highlight_selector"" from my XML, the app will load, but obviously the layout is off.

Here's my code for layout_listing.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="match_parent"
             android:foreground="@drawable/highlight_selector">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <RelativeLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content">

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/listing_image"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:contentDescription="@string/image_desc"
                android:minHeight="150dp"
                android:scaleType="centerCrop"/>

            <com.google.android.gms.plus.PlusOneButton
                android:id="@+id/listing_plus_one_btn"
                android:layout_width="48dp"
                android:layout_height="48dp"

                android:layout_alignTop="@+id/listing_share_btn"
                android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/listing_share_btn"
                android:layout_toStartOf="@+id/listing_share_btn"/>

            <ImageButton
                android:id="@+id/listing_share_btn"
                android:layout_width="48dp"
                android:layout_height="48dp"
                android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
                android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
                android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
                android:contentDescription="@string/share_desc"
                android:src="@drawable/ic_social_share"/>

        </RelativeLayout>

        <RelativeLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:background="@android:color/white"
            android:padding="4dp">

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/listing_title"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:text="Sample Title"
                android:textColor="@android:color/black"/>

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/listing_shop_name"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
                android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
                android:layout_below="@id/listing_title"
                android:text="Sample Shop Name"
                android:textColor="@android:color/darker_gray"/>

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/listing_price"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
                android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
                android:layout_below="@id/listing_title"
                android:text="$00.00"
                android:textColor="@android:color/holo_green_dark"
                />


        </RelativeLayout>


    </LinearLayout>

</FrameLayout>

And also when I click on an item, and go to an Etsy page, if I hit the back button, the app crashes, and in my logcat:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.os.Parcelable[] cannot be cast to com.alexlowe.recommendations.model.Image[] at com.alexlowe.recommendations.model.Listing$1.createFromParcel(Listing.java:45)

This is the line it's referencing:

listing.Images = (Image[]) source.readParcelableArray(Image.class.getClassLoader());

This only happens with the stock browser, not with chrome.

Does anyone know what might fix these issues?
