Answer 1

Download the image and the text, then:

button.setText(downloadedText);
button.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable);

You'll have to create a Drawable from the image, which you can probably do using Drawable#createFromStream.

Drawing the button in the position you want is no different from a normal button. Just declare it in your XML (possible set to Visibility.GONE at first), get a reference to it using View.findViewById and then do the above operations on it.
