I hope it's useful to you:

<Button 
    android:id="@+id/startTelemoteButton" 
    android:text="@string/start_telemote"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:width="fill_parent"
    android:height="wrap_content" />

you can simply use image button

 <ImageButton
        android:id="@+id/imageButton"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:src="@drawable/image" />
