I'm new to Android and coming from IOS and encountered a small issue.
I have an image that is quite long, so that on a tablet the image spans the whole screen without scaling the image.

But when i open the app on the phone the image is compressed in height to fit the screen.
How do i stop this?

The image is set as a background on a LinearLayout:

```
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="@drawable/blur"/>

```

i tried:

```
android:scaleType="fitStart"
android:scaleType="center"
android:scaleType="fitcenter

```
