Memory management in window phone 8 - memory-management

Question

My app need to load image from web each time with provided category and it is working, the problem is memory, Image loaded in memory not being remove when next category image load and hence memory increases and the app closing with the following message-
The program '[4036] TaskHost.exe' has exited with code -2005270523 (0x887a0005).
The code is ---
void webClient_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Error != null)
{
timer.Stop();
return;
}
List rootobj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject>(e.Result);
int c = 0, x = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < rootobj.Count; i++)
{
Image img = new Image();
img.HorizontalAlignment = System.Windows.HorizontalAlignment.Left;
img.VerticalAlignment = System.Windows.VerticalAlignment.Top;
img.Height = 160;
img.Width = 210;
img.Stretch = System.Windows.Media.Stretch.Fill;
BitmapImage bit = new BitmapImage();
string path = rootobj.ElementAt(i).ThumbnailUrl;
bit.UriSource = new Uri(path,UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
img.Source = bit;
img.Margin = new Thickness(x, y, 0, 0);
c++;
if (c == 2)
{
x = 0;
y = y + 160;
c = 0;
}
else
{
x = x + 210;
}
mainGrid.Children.Add(img);
} mainGrid.Children.Add(grid);
}
and to remove i had tried these--
for (int i = 0; i < rootobj.Count; i++)
{
Image image = (Image)mainGrid.Children.ElementAt(i);
BitmapImage bitmapImage = image.Source as BitmapImage;
bitmapImage.UriSource = null;
image.Source = null;
bitmapImage = null;
image = null;
}
grid.Children.Clear();
mainGrid.Children.Remove(grid);
But it still crashes after few type of image selected.

Answer 1

you can do something like the following :
grid1.Children.Remove(image1);
image1 = null;
