Answer 1

Use the shape background for image

Create a file called bg_back.xml in your drawable directory.

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
       <solid android:color="#FFFFFF"/>
       <stroke android:width="3dip" android:color="#B1BCBE" />
       <corners android:radius="10dip"/>
        <padding android:left="0dip" android:top="0dip" android:right="0dip" 
                 android:bottom="0dip" />
</shape>

Call this in your ImageView

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="@drawable/bg_back"/>
