Android: How to to set imageView as a marker in google map API android?

Solution
Yeah I was wondering if I could do something like this, i.e. show a custom `View` instead of drawable. You can override `draw()` method, but unfortunately it always (someone please tell me I'm wrong) has to be drawable. I think it's because custom `View` would take too much memory.
That being said, depending on what you're trying to achieve it's probably possible to hack mapview-baloon library to achieve some similar effect.
EDIT: Now that you've shown what you're trying to achieve I think you should override `draw()` in your `OverlayItem` and in this method inflate your `ImageView`. But I didn't try to do it this way, so there may be some drawbacks (I remember a SO thread on a similar matter that claimed, that it would interrupt all touch events on this `OverlayItem`).
