Solution 1:

You can use following code to do that..

BitmapDrawablebdrawable=newBitmapDrawable(context.getResources(),bitmap);

then just set bitmap with below function

button.setBackground(bdrawable);

Solution 2:

you need to check current version of Android also

Button bProfile; // your Button
Bitmap bitmap; // your bitmapif(android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 16) {
    bProfile.setBackgroundDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(getResources(), bitmap));
}
else {
    bProfile.setBackground(new BitmapDrawable(getResources(),bitmap));
}

Solution 3:

Hey First learn about Handling bitmaps: http://developer.android.com/training/displaying-bitmaps/process-bitmap.html

You should not process bitmaps on the UI thread at all. Once you have attained Bitmap use ImageView's method setImageBitmap(Bitmap bitmap).

To fetch images through network, You can also use libraries like picasso, Universal Image Loader, Volley to attain what you are wanting.

Solution 4:

I always and will always recommended you strongly using Image Button.
