It is unclear what you are asking.

But if you want to set a custom background for your application, you can use an Android theme to set a Drawable for every screen in your app.

AndroidManifest.xml:

<application ... android:theme="@style/MyAppTheme" />

res/values/themes.xml:

<resources>
  <style name="MyAppTheme" parent="android:Theme">
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/custom_background</item>
  </style>
</resources>

android - Facebook Connect works different on emulator/device, but not on Google Play
