How to put images on ListView buttons? I found some tutorials but don't know how to implement in my xml that I have already. I still working only with xml files and didn't touch anything in the code of the generated MainActivity.java.

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);
}


@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
    return true;
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
    // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
    // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
    int id = item.getItemId();
    if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
        return true;
    }
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}

This is the current xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="1" >

<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    android:layout_weight="0.5" >

    <ImageView
        android:contentDescription="@string/food"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:scaleType="centerCrop"
        android:src="@drawable/food" />
</RelativeLayout>

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    android:layout_weight="0.5"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="35dp"
        android:padding="4dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
        android:gravity="left"
        android:background="@drawable/bg_button"
        android:text="@string/Menu1" />
    <!-- android:background="#c5e1b0" -->
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button2"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="35dp"
        android:padding="4dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="5dp"

        android:gravity="left"
        android:background="@drawable/bg_button"
        android:text="@string/Menu2" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button3"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="35dp"
        android:padding="4dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="5dp"

        android:gravity="left"
        android:background="@drawable/bg_button"
        android:text="@string/Menu3" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button4"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="35dp"
        android:padding="4dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="5dp"

        android:gravity="left"
        android:background="@drawable/bg_button"
        android:text="@string/Menu4" />
 </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

So I want to add images on the left side of this 4 buttons.

Anyone can help with this task? Update:

Currently I have this structure on the left. Half of the screen (upper) is image. Second half I have 4 buttons. I want to put image on each button on the left side like is in the right picture with where is red aquare. enter image description here

Here is how you can have image and Text both on same button

<Button android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Testing" android:drawableLeft="@drawable/logo"/>
