Answer 1

You can use ImageButton, put your icon into drawable folder(if it doesnt exist, create it), and set it to your imageButton

<ImageButton
    android:id="@+id/imageButton1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:src="@drawable/yourImgName" />

Answer 2

You can create a simple Button and set its Background for picture.

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button"
        android:background="@drawable/help"
        android:contentDescription="@string/help"
        android:gravity="bottom"
        android:onClick="showHelp" />

Or you can create ImageButton :

<ImageButton
        android:id="@+id/sync"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="right|center_vertical"
        android:contentDescription="@string/sync"
        android:background="@android:color/transparent"            
        android:src="@drawable/sync" />

Answer 3

try the below code

  <ImageButton
    android:id="@+id/imageButton1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:src="@drawable/your_image_name"/>
