Here s probably a quick approach     With two icons shown above  you shall have a RadioGroup something like this     change the RadioGroup s orientation to horizontal for each RadioButton s Properties  try giving the icon for Button under CompoundButton  adjust the Padding and size  and set the Background attribute when checked

Yes that s possible you have to define your own style for radio buttons  at res values styles xml    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt resources gt   lt style name  CustomTheme  parent  android Theme  gt      lt item name  android radioButtonStyle  gt  style RadioButton lt  item gt   lt  style gt   lt style name  RadioButton  parent   android style Widget CompoundButton RadioButton  gt      lt item name  android button  gt  drawable radio lt  item gt   lt  style gt   lt  resources gt     radio  here should be a stateful drawable  radio xml        lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt       lt selector xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android  gt       lt item android state checked  true  android state window focused  false          android drawable   drawable radio hover    gt       lt item android state checked  false  android state window focused  false          android drawable   drawable radio normal    gt       lt item android state checked  true  android state pressed  true          android drawable   drawable radio active    gt       lt item android state checked  false  android state pressed  true          android drawable   drawable radio active    gt       lt item android state checked  true  android state focused  true          android drawable   drawable radio hover    gt       lt item android state checked  false  android state focused  true          android drawable   drawable radio normal off    gt       lt item android state checked  false  android drawable   drawable radio normal    gt       lt item android state checked  true  android drawable   drawable radio hover    gt       lt  selector gt    Then just apply the Custom theme either to whole app or to activities of your choice   For more info about themes and styles look at http   brainflush wordpress com 2009 03 15 understanding-android-themes-and-styles  that is good guide

You can put custom image in radiobutton like normal button  for that create one XML file in drawable folder  e g   lt selector xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android  gt   lt item android drawable   drawable sub screens aus hl       android state pressed  true   gt     lt item android drawable   drawable sub screens aus       android state checked  true   gt     lt item android drawable   drawable sub screens aus       android state focused  true    gt   lt item android drawable   drawable sub screens aus dis    gt     lt  selector gt     Here you can use 3 different images for radiobutton   and use this file to RadioButton like   android button   drawable aus  android layout height  120dp  android layout width  wrap content

The easier way to only change the radio button is simply set selector for drawable right   lt RadioButton             android button   null      android checked  false      android drawableRight   drawable radio button selector    gt    And the selector is    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt selector xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android  gt       lt item android drawable   drawable ic checkbox checked  android state checked  true    gt       lt item android drawable   drawable ic checkbox unchecked  android state checked  false    gt  lt  selector gt    That s all
